After the three men untied the cloth around their waists, everyone was shocked.
It can hide so many things!
They are all small but valuable items.
Some seals, pens, a few jade pendants, and small jewelry, all of which were left by Shen Xiuyi in the past, and all of them are of great value.
Not to mention that the cloth they used to wrap their waists was from Shen Huaiyu's mother's dowry. They must have thought of this idea because they saw that the material was too good and couldn't bear to keep it, so they wanted to take it away.
Seeing so many things shaken out of them, Shen Xiude's family blushed with shame, as if they were slapped in the face.
After seeing his mother's dowry, Shen Huaiyu could not hide the anger on his face, "You can get out now!"
Having their faces torn off in front of them, Shen Xiude and his family had no choice but to pack up their things and leave in a hurry.
"You should at least have some shame!" Feng Lingyu muttered softly.
"It's just that they are used to doing face-saving work!" Shen Huaiyu replied disdainfully, "But, Xiaoyu, how did you know that they hid something around their waists?"
The basket is easy to explain, very obvious.
But there is really no trace at all on the waist.
Because nowadays people's clothes basically have no waistline, they are loose and big.
Feng Lingyu smiled slyly, "This is a secret! Anyway, I know who hides it!"
Since Feng Lingyu didn't want to say it, Shen Huaiyu didn't ask.
"I haven't taken you around the yard yet. Come on, I'll show you around."
Feng Lingyu readily agreed.
All the annoying people left, and suddenly the air felt fresher.
"This yard is so big. I want to buy a yard as big as this one to live in in the future!"
Feng Lingyu and Shen Huaiyu wandered around for more than half an hour before they looked at every corner of the Shen family's yard.
The place where Shen Xiuyi originally lived had much better furnishings than the backyard where Shen Xiude's family lived.
No wonder they felt unbalanced and moved to the main courtyard.
In a large house with three courtyards like this, the rooms at the back are for the servants to live in, and it looks like an ordinary house.
The main courtyard is different. Even the pillars are painted red and carved with various auspicious patterns.
Because this house was protected by the army, it was not destroyed by those hot-blooded young people due to the turbulent times.
"It's just that the traces left by Shen Xiude's family need to be cleaned up." Shen Huaiyu hated Shen Xiude's family and didn't want to have anything to do with them anymore.
"Now that the house has been taken back, will you live here from now on?" Feng Lingyu asked.
"It's too big for me to live alone in such a big yard... Apart from other things, just cleaning the house is very tiring. I'd better leave it empty. When grandpa comes back, we can live together."
As he spoke, Shen Huaiyu brought Feng Lingyu to the small lotus pond in the garden.
At this time of year, the lotus flowers have already withered, leaving only some yellow lotus leaves floating on the water.
There are also small orange goldfish swimming around in the lotus pond.
"Why did you bring me here? Didn't we come here just now?" Feng Lingyu looked at the small lotus pond in confusion.
Shen Huaiyu: "Before I returned to Beijing, my grandfather told me where the treasure was hidden at home."
Feng Lingyu asked around, "Then the treasure is hidden under the small lotus pond?"
"Yes, these are all things passed down from our ancestors. As the heir to the family, my grandfather took up the lion's share of the property. Just now I saw signs of rummaging everywhere in the yard. It must have been done by that villain Shen Xiude!"
Shen Huaiyu knew that Shen Xiude must have found nothing.
"So that's how it is." Feng Lingyu concentrated and used his mental power to detect, and sure enough, he found a space under the small lotus pond, which should be a dark room that was secretly dug out.
"Fortunately, Grandpa Shen was well prepared. Otherwise, it would be a shame if the things were taken away by Shen Xiude! These things are not to be seen by others, and it is not easy to get them back." Feng Lingyu said thankfully.
And Shen Huaiyu had already begun to grope around the railings beside the small lotus pond.
Soon, he found the railing his grandfather mentioned, with his childhood graffiti on it.
Holding the railing with both hands, Feng Lingyu turned it clockwise three times. His ears moved slightly and he heard the sound of the mechanism turning.
Accompanied by a crackling sound, the water in the small lotus pond began to flow towards the openings on all sides.
The little goldfish followed the water flow and flowed into a small groove.
Feng Lingyu found a bowl and put the goldfish in it.
"Little fish, little fish, I'm sorry to bother you to stay in the bowl for a while."
Shen Huaiyu couldn't help laughing as he watched Feng Lingyu talking to Yu.
"The door is open, let's go in." Shen Huaiyu said.
Feng Lingyu placed the bowl in his hand on the railing beside him and nodded to Shen Huaiyu.
I don’t know how much treasure is placed underneath, and why there is such an ingenious mechanism.
Opening the door revealed a staircase leading downwards. Shen Huaiyu lit a candle and two kerosene lamps, threw the candle down, and seeing that the candle flame was not extinguished, he walked down with Feng Lingyu.
Feng Lingyu held a kerosene lamp and shone it around.
"Looking at this trace, it's been a long time. It should be the secret room left by your Shen family's ancestors."
The dim light from the kerosene lamp couldn't illuminate the room clearly, and the staircase wasn't particularly long, only about ten steps. The two of them successfully made it down to the dark room.
There were many boxes of various sizes piled up in the dark room. Of course, they could not compare with the Feng family’s property, but they were also amazing.
"It seems that Xiao Yu'er will be a wealthy man in the future. I will have to rely on you in the future." Feng Lingyu said jokingly, winking mischievously at Shen Huaiyu.
"Stop joking and take a look at what's there first." Shen Huaiyu has become immune to Feng Lingyu's teasing.
He remained calm and took the kerosene lamp to open the box.
Feng Lingyu made a face behind him. Really... I hope he won't turn into a giant ice cube in the future!
Seeing Chen Huaiyu opening the boxes one by one seriously, Feng Lingyu looked around with a kerosene lamp in boredom.
The area of this dark room is about the same size as a small lotus pond. Feng Lingyu estimated that it is only about ten square meters.
Feng Lingyu turned around and found Shen Huaiyu staring at a box of things without moving.
"What good stuff did you find? You're so surprised..." Feng Lingyu said as he walked towards Shen Huaiyu.
As soon as I went over, I was so shocked by what was in the box that I was speechless.
"What a huge diamond!" Feng Lingyu was not new to the world. She had many diamonds of all sizes in her space, even uncommon pink diamonds and blue diamonds.
But none of them is as big as the one in front of me, which looks to weigh five thousand carats.
You should know that the largest diamond in later generations is only about 3,000 carats, and the one in front of you must be much heavier than 3,000 carats.
It seems that each family has its own background, and everyone has some incredible things in their hands.
