Around 11 o'clock, everything in the car was finally moved to the storage room.

Li Juan had originally planned to go to sleep, but when she heard the tinkling noises outside, she couldn't resist coming out to see what was going on.

Upon opening the door, I saw my daughter and son carrying a large, patterned wooden box upstairs.

Su Yan came downstairs and saw her, asking, "Mother, why aren't you asleep yet?"

That box was the last box of gold bars on the truck. Once it was all unloaded, there wouldn't be any left. She planned to take another shower.

Li Juan asked curiously, "Ayan, what are you and Ayu carrying? Did you find it on the mountain?"

Su Yan remained silent, hesitating about how to begin her explanation.

"Mom, we found a cellar on the mountain today. There were a lot of things inside, so my sister and I brought them back. You can come up and take a look. If you have any questions after you've seen them, feel free to ask us."

Su Yu's voice came from upstairs. He was standing at the corner and happened to hear Li Juan's words. Seeing Su Yan hesitate, he spoke first.

The brother and sister were acting mysteriously, which piqued Li Juan's curiosity, so she went upstairs.

Su Yan's mind raced for a few seconds before she quickly followed.

Li Juan went into the storage room alone.

She walked over to her older brother and stood next to him, asking, "Aren't you afraid that Mother will faint from fright?"

Su Yu's lips twitched. "I'd rather believe Mother would be overjoyed."

Ever since she started making money, Li Juan's greed has become increasingly apparent; she seems afraid she won't be able to earn all the money in the world.

Su Yan: "..."

There was silence for a few seconds.

"Ah—Ugh!"

A half-scream suddenly came from the storage room, the other half of which seemed to be forcibly suppressed.

Su Yan and Su Yu exchanged a glance, then silently looked away.

Then, Li Juan came out of the storeroom with a look of horror on her face. Seeing her calm children, she pointed at the storeroom with a trembling finger and said in terror, "The things inside, you found them on the mountain?"

Su Yu hummed in agreement and then said, "We discovered a cellar while we were gathering herbs."

After thinking for a moment, he then explained the origins of these items.

After hearing this, Li Juan felt like she was about to faint!

Such a stroke of good fortune, a windfall from heaven, actually happened to her family!!!

After the initial shock came excitement. Li Juan approached, her movements becoming furtive, and asked in a low voice, "No one saw you moving these things, right?"

"I definitely won't tell her about Xie Jiaxi," Su Yu said without changing his expression. "No, Mother, don't worry. Just keep the storage room locked and try not to go in."

Actually, the antiques themselves weren't a big deal, but the sheer number of gold bars and jewelry there was a bit too conspicuous.

"I definitely won't let anyone in." After saying that, Li Juan's face showed worry as she thought of something. "Won't these things bring trouble to our family?"

In the past, wealthy families were sent down to the countryside for criticism and struggle sessions because of these things. Although things are not as strict as they used to be, she had seen the fate of people whose homes were ransacked and who were criticized and struggled against. These were fears etched into her bones.

"No," Su Yu reassured him. "No one else knows except the three of us."

Hearing this, Li Juan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. Don't tell your grandparents about this."

She figured that given her mother's personality, she would definitely make her throw everything away, since her mother had been through public criticism and struggle sessions and was very wary of such things.

"Okay, go to bed now. You have to go to the shop so early tomorrow," Su Yu said.

Li Juan responded and then staggered downstairs, clearly still in a daze.

Hearing the door close downstairs, Su Yu turned to Su Yan and asked, "Are these things going to stay at home forever?"

Su Yan sensed the disapproval in his tone and understood what he meant.

After all, it won't be long before only Li Juan, her maternal grandparents, and the two children are at home. If something unexpected happens, how will they be able to handle it?

After thinking for a moment, she slowly said, "I remember a new residential complex was built in Anping Town, and it's already on sale."

Su Yu: ...He suddenly understood the meaning of those words.

In the past, he would have refused without even thinking.

But now... well, what can you do when his sister is a rich woman?

"Are you really going to buy a house?"

Su Yan said, "Let's buy them, let's buy two sets. We'll keep them for when Hu Zi and Xiao Lei get married. The one we're living in now will be for your wedding. I think you have no objections to this arrangement, brother?"

Su Yu: "..." You've already arranged everything, what objections could I possibly have??

"Okay, let's go take a look tomorrow."

After discussing these topics, the two went back to their respective rooms.

...

The next day, at 10:30 a.m.

Su Yu and Su Yan didn't get out of bed until the sun was high in the sky.

Everyone in the family knew they were exhausted, so they tacitly refrained from waking them.

When I went downstairs, there were fried eggs, dumplings, and millet porridge in the kitchen, which Grandma Li had specially set aside for me to have breakfast.

Su Yan came downstairs when Su Yu was halfway through his meal.

Seeing her portion on the table, she sat down and ate.

"Shall we go look at houses after dinner?" Su Yu asked unhurriedly.

Su Yan hesitated for two seconds before saying "Mmm" and then picked up her cell phone to make a call.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, someone answered the phone, saying, "Hello, this is Dr. Zou's office."

The voice was female; it must be a nurse.

"Hello, I'd like to ask if Dr. Zou is here?"

"Dr. Zou is in surgery. He was in the operating room all morning and will only be available in the afternoon. Is there anything you need me to leave a message for?"

Su Yan thought for a moment, "It's okay, I'll go there this afternoon. If his surgery is over, please let him know for me. My surname is Su."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, she put down her cell phone. "After we eat, we'll go buy a house. This afternoon, I'll take Tiger to Lanzhou People's Hospital for a checkup."

Su Yu immediately said, "Then I'll go with you."

Su Yan shook her head and refused, "No need, you stay home and keep your mother company. I can manage on my own. Besides, you're overworked and not fit to travel anymore. You can also find someone to investigate Xie Jiaxi's matter."

"Can……"

"Brother," Su Yan interrupted him, saying solemnly, "I'm not a child anymore!"

Su Yu: ...Look at your tone, it's like you're already eighty years old.

"All right."

Since his sister had said that, he didn't want to force her.

A little while later, Grandma Li returned from taking Tiger out to buy groceries, and Su Yan told her about it.

Grandma Li was so excited that she quickly said, "Okay...okay! Be careful and come back soon."

She wasn't worried about Su Yan taking Hu Zi out alone; Su Yu and Su Yan were the most reliable people in the family.

Su Yan planned to take the 2 PM bus.

Because of the tight schedule, the brother and sister left the house quickly after breakfast.

The residential area is about 1 kilometer away from here, which is not particularly far, so the two of them walked there.
