My cousin even has one here...
Could it be that my uncle secretly paired them together?
Besides her house key, there was another key with a similar design to hers.
My uncle's family used to use this type of lock too.
I suppose this one belongs to my uncle's family.
The old man, it turns out he never had any good intentions.
Shu Ying cursed under her breath and put the two keys aside for the time being.
Shu Jie's memory wasn't very good, and he was afraid of mixing up so many locks, so he made corresponding marks on each key and box.
Shu Ying checked each of the markings and tried them one by one, and the box was quickly opened.
Shu Ying smiled when she opened the box.
Among these items, besides porcelain and calligraphy and paintings, there are also ornaments made of precious wood, each one of which is valuable, but none of them belong to my uncle's family.
All of these things were collected from her house.
The box on the left contains several blue and white porcelain vases with polychrome decorations, which are at least two hundred years old and were previously displayed in the living room of the house.
And that set of jade teapot and teacups, which hadn't been used for many years and had been kept in a locked cabinet on the first floor, were unexpectedly found by them.
In addition, there were pen holders inlaid with Hetian jade, jewelry boxes with gold wire inlay... even bronze crane lamps inlaid with sea pearls and sandalwood armchairs that had been carefully preserved in the warehouse were all collected by them.
Shu Ying opened one box after another, and all she saw were familiar things.
These things might just be money to her uncle's family, but for her, they represent memories from childhood to adulthood.
We opened every single box, but never found a single item from my uncle's house.
It seems this family is greedy; they only think about stealing from her house and don't even care about their own belongings.
There were many things in this box, things that had been stored in cabinets or warehouses for many years and hadn't been touched. I didn't expect that my uncle's family would know about it and find them all so quickly and pack them into a box.
It seems that my uncle has been eyeing these things for a long time, and even knows where they are.
It's really impressive that he's been able to endure this for so many years.
If it weren't for the sudden change in her family situation, she probably wouldn't have been able to see the true colors of this family of wolves and tigers.
After searching through the last box for a long time, Shu Ying discovered that the key was the one that Shu Jie had hidden in his inner pocket, which was also tightly sealed.
This box is noticeably smaller than the previous one, but the workmanship is much more exquisite and sturdy, and it has three locks on it.
Shu Ying opened each of the three locks one by one to take a look.
As expected, most of the contents were gold bars and foreign currency.
She had only seen these things twice, when her grandfather had stored them in the built-in safe behind the mural.
Although her grandfather told her the password before he passed away, she hadn't lived a bad life over the years and hadn't touched the money.
I never imagined that the safe was hidden so well behind the mural, and that my uncle even knew about it...
No wonder they could sweep everything away so quickly in their past life; they had planned it all along.
Shu Ying's eyes darkened.
Regardless of how long they are imprisoned after they wake up and are caught, it would be best if they lived out their lives in prison and suffered the consequences of their own actions.
After taking inventory of the items in the warehouse, Shu Ying stood up and dusted off her hands.
After working for half a day, I suddenly felt a bit thirsty.
I wonder if there's any water in this space...
As Shu Ying walked out of the warehouse, she was about to look around when she heard a clear sound of flowing water as she rounded the side of the house.
