Lin Wanwan: "I didn't hear clearly, I only heard some words in fits and starts."

Lu Yunyi frowned, somewhat dissatisfied. "Didn't you hear a single complete sentence?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head.

The door was tightly closed, and not a sound came out. She had to press her ear against the door to hear some fragmented words.

They were prepared to be caught by Lu Yunzhang, after all, Lu Yunzhang was a soldier.

But in the end, he wasn't caught red-handed. No one knows what the old man said that made him lower his guard.

Seeing that she didn't seem like she would dare to lie, Lu Yunyi had no choice but to settle for second best, "Which words? Tell me in order."

"Property... what are you smelling... Fourth Uncle... the keys..."

Lu Yunyi, who was initially dissatisfied, beamed with joy upon hearing these words.

"Not bad, you even know how to find key information when eavesdropping."

With just a few simple words, Lu Yunyi pieced together the conversation between the old man and Lu Yunzhang in his mind.

There may be some discrepancies, but the general direction remains unchanged.

His father was right; his fourth aunt did indeed have a large sum of money back then, and the reason they couldn't find it was because the old man had taken it.

According to his father, that key was the crucial object for finding the property.

Lu Yunyi narrowed his eyes, feeling quite displeased.

The old man is as confused as ever. Has he forgotten that he has more than one grandson, Lu Yunzhang?

He acknowledged that Lu Yunzhang was very powerful, but that did not mean that everything in the Lu family belonged to him, Lu Yunzhang.

He investigated what happened back then and found that the people who caused the accident twenty years ago were clearly his eldest uncle, second uncle, and third uncle.

His father and his sixth and seventh uncles can only be considered accomplices.

Despite being an accomplice, his father and seventh uncle were forced to leave Beijing and stay in the desolate Northwest for twenty years.

Meanwhile, the second uncle's family, who strangled his younger cousins, lived a peaceful life in Beijing, enjoying the wealth and luxury of the Lu family.

The old man also used all his connections to help Lu Yunzhang rise through the ranks in the army.

On what grounds?

Since he can't get fairness, he'll just steal it; it's all about who has the ability.
