The family's valuables, land deeds, house deeds, servants' indentures, and large sums of money were all kept inside.
The hidden compartment was a project that Jiang Shuyun and Mu Yi'an researched together. They had both watched a program that explored ancient woodworking techniques, and they took out the ones that impressed them the most and studied them. They actually succeeded.
There's no need to move furniture; it's just about organizing people's belongings and the storage room, which makes things much easier.
Each person was responsible for their own tasks. Mu Yi'an, along with Fang's wife and the others, took the opportunity to check the items in the warehouse and put them away in their proper categories.
Some of the valuable items, such as those bestowed by the Emperor or as New Year's gifts from the Gu family, are stored in the storeroom of the main courtyard.
The rest of the items were stored in the large warehouse at the back.
Jiang Shuyun tidied up the study in the main courtyard herself, while Shao Ming and his brothers, after tidying up their own things, took charge of the large study in the outer courtyard.
After several days of tidying up, the newly arrived maids, wives, and mothers-in-law are gradually getting used to their positions, and it's the day before the banquet for guests.
Mu Yi'an and her group didn't plan for a large number of guests; they prepared ten tables in total, including the inner and outer courtyards.
There were about seven or eight tables of guests, mainly family members and in-laws; quite a few people came.
If it's an outsider, the number of people attending the banquet won't be too large.
Butler Li hired a head chef from a restaurant, and Mu Yi'an specially built a large kitchen next to the storeroom and took fire prevention measures.
Vegetables, meat, eggs, and fruit for the banquet are delivered from the estate early in the morning. Vegetable shops also deliver the necessary ingredients, and seafood from the docks is also delivered early in the morning; everything is pre-ordered.
Everything is ready, we're just waiting for our guests to arrive tomorrow.
