Chapter 201: Cannon Fodder in the Confiscated Property and Exile Story 6
Sun thought about what Jiang Haoyun had said.
In the past, she could only offer comfort and say, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate."
But now she has gained a space. Why would a deity give her such a magical space at this time?
Is it a sign from the gods?
If the Third Prince is the winner, the Prime Minister's Mansion will surely be glorious. The eldest daughter of the first branch, Jiang Lan, will become the Third Prince's consort and ascend to the position of Empress. The entire first branch will rise in status.
This won't have a significant impact on their third wife's family.
You can still continue living your current stable life.
However, if the Third Prince loses, the Prime Minister's Mansion will certainly not have a good ending.
The Prime Minister's mansion has fallen, and their third branch won't have a good ending either.
The worst outcome would be the extermination of their entire family, with everyone being beheaded as traitors.
Or they might be imprisoned in jail, never to see the light of day again.
The men were reduced to slaves, and the women were forced into brothels.
Or they were exiled to a barren land with their entire families.
Their fate is determined by a single thought of another person.
Is this space meant to save their lives?
The next day, Sun asked Jiang He to store more food and other things she usually needed in her space.
Remember, you have to put it in secretly, and don't let anyone know.
Jiang He nodded; Sun Shi and she were thinking the same thing.
She's going to have a good look around the Prime Minister's residence today.
Sun opened the storeroom, where her dowry was kept, along with the things she and her husband had saved up over the years.
Sun carefully organized the items and stored them in her spatial storage.
However, the Sun family dared not take it all.
If there's nothing left in the warehouse, people will definitely become suspicious.
Some of these were dowry items prepared for their daughter; all of them must be put away.
If something really happens, as long as he isn't beheaded directly.
Giving these things to my daughter will make her life a little better.
Keep the other large, prominent decorative items.
I kept a portion of everything.
There are also some undesirable or discarded items left in the warehouse.
At first glance, it looks like there are things in the warehouse.
Only upon close inspection can one discover that these are all defective products, or things that look fancy but are not substantial at all.
The three families were never valued; in the eyes of others, they were just a poor, destitute household.
Even when they go out, no one will associate them with the Prime Minister's Mansion, and no one will pay much attention to them.
After finishing tidying up the storeroom, Sun went to her room to organize her things.
Other people will come and go in the room. If we take everything away, it will cause trouble if someone notices.
If everything is alright, they can just continue as before.
If something happens, then put it away on the day the accident occurs, when the house is in disarray.
Organize everything into categories: which items must be taken away, which don't need to be taken away, and which can be taken away depending on the situation.
Jiang He herself didn't have many possessions, not many jewelry or clothes.
There were a few gifts that Jiang's father and mother had given to the original owner of this body, as well as wooden toys that Jiang's father had carved himself. These were the most precious things here, and the things that the original owner cared about the most.
In her previous life, her family's property was ransacked, and these worthless wooden carvings were smashed to pieces by the soldiers, which broke her heart.
Jiang He put it away and kept it safe for the original owner.
Jiang He asked the online store to scan the items in the Prime Minister's residence.
Jiang He didn't like some of the things, and some of them were imperial gifts. Even if she put them in her space, she would never be able to take them out to use. They were just taking up space in her space.
Jiang He didn't want those secondhand items either.
It's better to recycle it and give it to the mall to exchange for points. She can then buy whatever she wants from the mall and get brand new items. That would be much better.
Jiang He strolled around the garden of the Prime Minister's residence, clicking the recycle button repeatedly.
Paintings and calligraphy worth 5,000 yuan are being recycled.
A vase worth 10,000 yuan is being recycled.
A jade Buddha statue worth 20,000 yuan is being recycled.
A gold hairpin worth one thousand is being recycled.
A piece of Nanjing brocade worth 5,000 yuan is being recycled.
Jiang He wandered around the courtyards in various places.
A comprehensive reconnaissance operation involving all four sides.
The place where the most recycled items are located is where the warehouse is situated.
This warehouse is not usually opened, so you can recycle it without worry.
However, Jiang He didn't touch the junk worth less than a thousand.
Let the trash go to the garbage collectors.
As for the items in those rooms, Jiang He specifically chose gold and silver jewelry, silver notes, and silver coins to recycle.
The things that are visible haven't been touched.
If something disappears right before your eyes in broad daylight, that would be a ghost story.
As Jiang He strolled around, she ended up in another corner of the Prime Minister's residence.
This is Jiang Ping's courtyard.
Jiang Ping's courtyard was indeed the most secluded of the two households.
They were also the poorest.
There was almost nothing of value.
Those pieces of jewelry were only worth a few dozen yuan.
There wasn't anything else of value.
However, someone as worldly as Jiang Ping would probably look down on something so trashy.
Jiang He recycled them all.
Well, out of kindness, we left some furniture for Jiang Ping to use, since the house search wouldn't be conducted until tomorrow, and she still needed to eat and sleep today.
During the recovery process, Jiang He discovered the medicine.
Oh, Jiang Ping caught a cold and is taking medicine.
She wasn't saying it was just a fever, a minor problem that would pass if she just toughed it out, why was she being so dramatic and needing to take medicine?
So when Jiang Haoyun had a fever, no one was willing to give him the medicine.
Jiang Ping not only refused to give them the medicine, but also scolded them for being pretentious.
Jiang Ping is not pretentious.
It's just a minor cold, no need to take medicine.
Anyway, it will pass if you just hang in there.
Jiang He collected all the main medicinal materials that had the effect of treating colds and kept some auxiliary, adjuvant, and medicated herbs.
Hmm, this prescription should be fine to take for two days.
This means that Jiang Ping found the medicine a bit unpleasant to drink, and she might experience some mild nausea and vomiting, and her cold symptoms would not be relieved.
The side effects of this medicine vary from person to person; perhaps Jiang Ping will experience no side effects at all after taking it.
Jiang He also discovered that the servants in Jiang Ping's courtyard were not very honest.
That person is really dishonest.
Which servant could possibly have a gold hairpin?
With such qualities, why would you choose to be a slave?
He was still working in Jiang Ping's courtyard, the place with the least promising future and the least favored.
Wouldn't it be more comfortable to spend a little money and be transferred to serve my grandmother or in the main courtyard?
They can also receive rewards from time to time.
However, even though Jiang Ping claims to be out of favor, there are quite a few maids serving her in this courtyard.
There are more than a dozen of them.
Think about it, their three households only had three nannies in total.
One cooks, one does the laundry, and one sweeps.
Oh, and Jiang Haoyun also has a servant boy by his side.
There were only four servants in total.
The monthly wages of the servants in each household are paid by the respective households themselves.
The main reason was that their third branch of the family didn't have much money, so they couldn't afford to hire a lot of servants.
The eldest son's wife is the third prince's wife, and the second son's wife has the grandmother's favorite grandson, so they are naturally not short of this monthly allowance.
