Chapter 4: Emptying All Family Assets (2/2)



Otherwise, if she left it here, it would probably be burned to the ground by those radicals. Rather than ruining such a good thing, she would rather keep it for herself.

If she can actually wait until the day it opens, she might be able to restore the place to its original state.

The old house in the space had the exact same layout as the Shu family home. Every room in the Shu family home was a perfect replica of the mansion, which made Shu Ying feel very safe, as if she was always in this home.

The Shu family did not experience any major changes, and she continued to grow up carefree, pampered by her entire family.

Once everything on this floor was packed away, Shu Ying felt relieved enough to settle Yueyue inside.

She put the hair clip back in her hair and began frantically searching through the house, layer by layer.

The white jade desk in the study, the mahogany bed, the cowhide mat, and the peacock feathers from the parents' former bedroom were all taken away.

The Hainan white wood openwork sandalwood dragon bed and the Suzhou embroidery jade screen worth hundreds of thousands of yuan in the old man's room, as well as the solid wood dining table with dragon and phoenix carvings and the blue and white okra bowl in the dining room, have all returned to their corresponding positions in the space.

Besides these, Shu Ying didn't let anything else go. The main building of the Shu family had three floors, and she took everything that could be taken, including kitchen utensils and lamps.

By the time everything was moved, Shu Ying was so exhausted that her mind went blank. Although she didn't have to lift a finger and could simply use her mind to pack things up, the Shu family's old house covered a large area, and walking back and forth was still a physical task.

Only when the old house was reduced to a few bare walls did Shu Ying truly realize just how well-off her family had been.

She used to think these things were just decorations, not very useful, just pretty vases, but now she understands their deeper meaning and value.

The Shu family has calmly weathered a century of turmoil, so it's no wonder they've attracted so much attention.

Shu Ying flipped through the precious medical records she had collected with her parents when they returned from studying abroad.

"Thankfully, everything is complete. Mom and Dad, I will definitely fulfill your wishes and become a qualified doctor!"

She wanted to study abroad because she didn't want to be confined to this old house. She believed that only by going out more, seeing more, and receiving new ideas and education could she change her current situation.

The Shu family's ability to become a renowned family for centuries is by no means the result of stagnation and complacency.

Shu Ying never expected that just because she had been abroad, she would be labeled as pro-foreign.

The Shu family is in a mess right now, and there's only so much Shu Ying can do. All she can do is try her best to collect all the cultural relics that need protection so that they won't suffer any persecution from people.

With a thought, Shu Ying neatly arranged all the relevant books, placing them orderly inside the mahogany top cabinet.

After finishing all that, Shu Ying put her arm around the stair railing, looked at the carpet under her feet, and placed it in the space.

This carpet is hand-knitted from pure wool, with an average of 3 million frames per square meter. Even the finest sand wouldn't get stuck in the seams, so leaving it here would be a waste.

In the living room, a photo of the old man and woman celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary still hung on the wall. Shu Ying looked up.

In my memory, the old lady always had white hair, but she always dressed very neatly. She always had a yellow hair clip in her white hair, and she always wore different clothes in the morning and afternoon. The necklace she wore around her neck also matched her clothes.
