Chapter 3: Collect, Collect, Collect (1/2)



Tingxue Pavilion was also the courtyard of the third aunt in the past, and most of the things in the warehouse were left behind by her.

It turned out that she was not favored, and the things she got were not much. The only thing she saved was a box of cash in her boudoir.

She was reluctant to spend the monthly allowance she received, and only saved two hundred yuan in a year.

The shelves in the warehouse were filled with rows of wooden boxes, mostly containing ordinary cotton fabrics and out-of-season clothes.

Although these things were not valuable, Liu Shuning still put them into the space.

In this era of material scarcity, these old clothes were rare treasures in the eyes of ordinary people.

When she returns to the countryside, she can give the clothes to those in need.

[Su 㹏, Su 㹏, there is something under the ground. ]

Is there a room in the basement? Who put that thing there? Is it the original one?

The third concubine has always been a secret in the Liu family. Could it be that her identity is not ordinary?

"Can you help me scan where the opening is?"

[The entrance is in the corner in front of you.]

Liu Shuning carefully moved the wooden box in the corner and found a keyhole in the corner.

Why does this keyhole look so familiar?

Hey, this keyhole is the same shape as the one on the necklace around my neck.

Is the necklace around my neck the key?

Now Chuntao is still outside, so we can only send her away tomorrow and then open the room to check.

Liu Shuning moved the wooden box back to its original place and left the warehouse. The things inside could not be moved yet. He would come back to put them away after putting away all the things in Liu Mansion in the evening!

At this time, in the large kitchen at the other end of Liu's mansion.

The servants who were preparing dinner finally discovered that the food in the cellar was missing.

"Butler Liu, what should we do now? The food and ingredients in the cellar are now missing. The food was still there when we made lunch."

"First, arrange for someone to go out and buy today's food and ingredients. I'll tell you the rest after I report to you, Master!"

Such a big theft in the kitchen could not be concealed, and housekeeper Liu, who received the news, reported it to Liu Zhixiong immediately.

However, there were no clues left in the cellar. Liu Zhixiong was busy selling off his property. He asked someone to check but failed to find out who the thief was, so he had to give up.

The Liu family’s property has been almost sold out, so for the safety of the family, they arranged more people to patrol day and night.

That night, after Liu Shuning waited for Chuntao to fall asleep, he changed into black clothes and quietly left the room.

Tingxue Pavilion was quite far from the courtyard. It took her more than ten minutes to reach Qingfeng Courtyard. She saw several groups of patrolling servants along the way.

Qingfengyuan is Zhao Zhixiong's office, and his private vault is also here.

Liu Shuning used his invisibility skills to swagger into Qingfeng Courtyard.

In the study room of Qingfeng Courtyard, Liu Zhixiong was discussing the details of leaving with his eldest son Liu Yuchen.

"Father, do we really have to marry off all three sisters? It would be such a waste to marry the fifth sister to a peasant. Why don't we take the fifth sister with us?"
