Chapter 148 Unlimited Wealth
Although Song Li did not know the original owner of the house, he could not help but feel desolate when he looked at the property.
She turned to look at her grandfather: "Grandpa, what's this?"
Grandpa's eyes welled up with tears: "The place I lived when I was young."
Song Li remained silent.
Such a vast legacy, now only my grandfather remains.
What a huge blow that is!
Back then, my grandfather probably had elderly parents to care for, young children to raise, and countless servants.
Now he is an elderly person living alone.
The misery involved is self-evident.
"Come with me."
Song Li followed her grandfather to the side.
They did not go to the main house.
How so?
With such a large courtyard, there's bound to be a creepy feeling.
But the thought of being with Grandpa made me feel a little better.
Song Li followed her grandfather into the kitchen.
Because she could see the stove, Song Li could tell at a glance that this was a kitchen.
The roof is so dilapidated that it leaks when it rains.
Snowflakes were faintly visible on the ground.
Grandpa walked towards the trash behind the stove.
Move the two bundles of firewood apart.
Song Li quickly said, "Grandpa, let me do it."
The two of them moved the firewood together.
Song Li looked at the ground and saw that nothing had changed!
It's just paved with bricks.
I watched as Grandpa picked up the bricks one by one.
Song Li didn't ask any more questions and just followed along as they moved.
Until two square meters of bricks were removed.
Song Licai then noticed that there was a wooden board underneath.
"Come here, help me pull myself up."
"it is good."
The wooden planks were pulled up, revealing a secret passage underneath.
The secret passage was placed in the kitchen.
What a talent!
Grandpa took out a flashlight.
"Follow me."
"Um."
The two walked down.
It took two minutes to walk.
Below was actually a cellar.
There were countless boxes of all sizes.
Grandpa stepped forward and opened a box covered in dust.
Song Li looked at the gold bars inside and exclaimed, "Wow... Grandpa, you must be the richest man in the world!"
Grandpa laughed: "Not really. Back in the day, powerful families with connections would have hidden far more wealth than this. This is nothing!"
"It's just that everyone is playing it safe."
Song Li understood; no wonder there were so many members of the old royal family in the entertainment industry of later generations.
It turns out that their property was never confiscated at all.
Also.
No matter what era they're from, whether they're rich or powerful, how could they not have some connection?
Hiding the finances in advance should definitely solve the problem.
Song Li looked at the dozen or so boxes of various sizes in the cellar.
Imagine how much wealth is in there!
Grandpa slowly said, "Don't be surprised, this is the last bit of wealth the Yu family has left, and of course, most of it has been donated."
Song Li: This is the last bit. How much must there have been back then!
Grandpa Yu: "I have no descendants, so I'll leave all of this to you."
"For me?" Song Li was incredulous; such immense wealth had fallen into her lap.
I never thought I'd have another chance to experience her incredible life!
This is no small amount of wealth!
Grandpa Yu walked over and opened each box one by one.
The five boxes contained gold bars.
Even a single gold bar is quite valuable!
Still five large boxes.
She knew all too well that gold prices were high right now.
This box of gold bars is priceless.
Then came the gold and silver jewelry.
Ceramics and jade artifacts.
There were also two boxes of books and paintings.
Song Li picked one up at random.
I opened it and took a look.
do not know.
But the name in the bottom right corner.
Wang Xizhi's calligraphy.
Song Li called out in her mind: "Tuan Tuan..."
"Host, what is it?"
"Scan this; is it an authentic piece?"
Scanning...
"Congratulations, host. This is an authentic work by Wang Xizhi."
God!
It's no longer enough to describe it as getting rich.
Grandpa laughed and said, "How about it? It's true, isn't it!"
Song Li: "Ah!"
Grandpa smiled.
"Grandpa, you suddenly brought me here. Won't this place be exposed?" Song Li asked curiously.
"It's yours now, so it's yours. Just find a way to put everything here somewhere you trust!"
Song Li still didn't understand why Grandpa Yu hadn't thought about giving it to anyone else all these years.
Why did I suddenly decide to give myself to someone?
"Why would Grandpa think of leaving these things to me?"
"These gold things are something you can't take with you when you die, so it's better to leave them to you than to leave them to others. Of course, there's another reason as well."
Song Li pricked up his ears.
"What's the reason?"
"The necklace around your neck."
Song Li was surprised.
Does Grandpa know the secret of this necklace?
A sense of panic flashed through my mind.
"Grandpa knows about this necklace."
"I don't know, but I've met her before, an old friend. You have a bit of her in you, so I guess she's no longer here."
Grandpa looked at Song Li as if he were looking at a certain person.
"Do you know how old she is?"
"If she were here, she would probably be sixty-seven or sixty-eight years old!"
Song Li frowned: I can't get in touch with the Song family.
She had no idea where the original owner had gotten the necklace from.
Although she possessed some fragmented memories of the original owner, it wasn't all of them.
Song Li: "Well, I don't even know who gave me this necklace. I've been wearing it since I was little."
There's no other way; if something can't be explained, you can only lie.
"Okay, I won't be coming here again. You should also come less often unless you're moving something. Otherwise, you might attract unwanted attention."
"it is good."
Grandpa went out first.
Song Li walked behind.
When going out.
With a casual wave of his hand: "Collect."
Song Li turned her head and looked at the empty cellar inside.
The Yu family patriarch was truly clever!
There was even a cellar set up in the kitchen; it's no wonder no one discovered it all these years.
Most people would probably search for things in the master bedroom, not in the kitchen!
So many things, let others share them with her.
She wasn't at ease.
So just send it to my space!
Her space is more than enough to fit these boxes.
A completely empty space.
These sixteen boxes took up half of the space.
It seems the space needs to be increased further.
After all, there's space, so it's safer to put things there.
Leaving it outside still carries risks.
After the two came out...
Then restore the kitchen to its original location.
out of the yard.
Grandpa Yu turned around.
Kneel down in front of the gate.
Then he kowtowed three times.
Grandpa Yu did not make Song Li kowtow as well.
But Song Li obediently did as she was told.
If you take someone's money, what's a few kowtows?
Song Li silently said in her heart: Ancestors of the Yu family, rest assured, I will take good care of Grandpa.
Song Li slowly helped her grandfather up.
Grandpa glanced at Song Li: "Let's go! Let's go back!"
"it is good."
Song Li thought that since the Yu family's ancestors did not have memorial tablets, he would buy a large courtyard and set up a memorial tablet specifically for Grandpa Yu.
This can be considered as having incense offerings!
We cannot use their money in the human world while they have no money to use in the underworld.
That's all she could do, however small.
Different eras have their own tragedies.
Sometimes it really is true: everything is fate, and nothing is up to us.
Who doesn't want to live a good life?
Grandpa Yu took Song Li back again.
Suddenly I felt much more at ease.
How so?
Does this count as giving an explanation for the future?
