The only one who could come to the backyard of the government office was Governor Song.

Ye Jintang couldn't understand what Governor Song was looking for in the study.

Did he also know that Governor Ye had a secret fund?

In the original novel, Ye Song came to pick up the original owner back to the capital. When he was cleaning up the study, he found that a part of the lower part of the study was empty.

But because he couldn't find the door to the secret room, Ye Song finally called in some craftsmen and almost dismantled the entire study before he found the secret vault of Governor Ye.

It is said that a clean magistrate can earn 100,000 silver coins in three years. Even if Magistrate Ye is honest, he has been the magistrate for more than ten years, so naturally his small treasury is filled with countless gold and silver.

Unfortunately, the original owner was unable to use the gold, silver and jewelry, and they all became the property of the Marquis of Danyang.

It was precisely because of this memory that Ye Jintang came to the study, wanting to see if he could find the mechanism to open the small treasury.

After all, given her current situation, she couldn't tear down the study for the time being.

Magistrate Ye’s study was very large, with bookshelves, a treasure cabinet, soft couches and other miscellaneous items.

Ye Jintang looked around but couldn't find the mechanism to open the small treasury.

She was very confused as to how could such a large vault have no door.

After staying in the study for a long time and putting all the valuables into the Immortal Palace, Ye Jintang was about to look for them again when he heard the voice of Nanny Zhao coming from outside the door.

"Why are you in the study? I found two sets of men's clothes for you. Do you want to try them on now?"

Nanny Zhao strode into the study room holding clothes. Her bright eyes quickly scanned Ye Jintang, trying to see what she was doing here.

"Madam Zhao, just give the clothes to Luzhu."

Ye Jintang looked quite cold. This old woman was jumping around in the yard and would cause trouble for her sooner or later. Tomorrow, she would take the opportunity to move out and get rid of Madam Zhao.

"Don't be too sad, young lady. If the master and the mistress saw you so depressed, they would definitely be sad too."

"Ah."

When Nanny Zhao saw that Ye Jintang looked like he didn't want to pay attention to her, she gritted her teeth inwardly but didn't show it on her face at all.

"The master and the mistress have passed away for a few days, and the yard they lived in has not been cleaned up yet. How about I go and clean it up and put everything away so that the things that the master and the mistress loved won't be covered with dust."

"Just go and do your own thing. There's no need to rush to clean up the things in my parents' room."

Nanny Zhao wanted to say a few more words of advice, but Ye Jintang gave her a cold look, so she could only shut up.

But before leaving, he turned back to take one more look at the soft couch where Ye Jintang was sitting.

Who is Ye Jintang? She was an orphan girl with nothing, who worked hard to become a female CEO worth tens of billions.

She has seen so many people and things, as numerous as the countless fish in the sea.

From a look and a gesture from Madam Zhao, she guessed that Madam Zhao must have also received an order from Governor Song to find the entrance to the small treasury.

After coming out of the study, Ye Jintang locked the door again and turned to the courtyard where Governor Ye and Madam Wen lived.

When the door was opened, a faint scent of incense could be smelled in the room.

All the furnishings inside were extremely luxurious; the teapot on the table alone must have cost over a hundred taels of silver.

Ye Jintang had no way of understanding the deceased Magistrate Ye and Madam Wen, but looking at the styles of things used in the house, she vaguely felt that Madam Wen must also be a very gentle woman.

The dressing box contained the jewelry that Madam Wen liked to wear in the past. Ye Jintang picked up a gold hairpin. There was a word "玉" engraved on the end of the hairpin. Madam Wen's maiden name also contained the word "玉".

On the desk in the outer room, there was a half-painted picture of a beauty by Magistrate Ye. Although it was only half painted, one could vaguely see that the person in the picture should be Madam Wen.

Ye Jintang had never felt love before, but here he felt the deep love between Magistrate Ye and Madam Wen.

She put away the paintings on the table and wanted to find a painting tube to preserve them properly.

Just as she bent down to pick up the painting tube, she vaguely saw a tiny crack on a floor tile under the porcelain jar that contained the painting tube.

Without even thinking about it, she reached out and gently turned the porcelain jar, only to hear a slight noise coming from under her feet.

A dark passage was revealed where the table was originally placed.

Ye Jintang suddenly realized. No wonder he couldn't find the door to the small treasury in the study. The emotional door was here.

Holding a candlestick, Ye Jintang walked down the secret passage without hesitation. After a while, he saw a small treasury filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

There were also some seals of Prefect Ye, as well as deeds to some land, farms, shops, and courtyards.

After carefully reading the deed, Ye Jintang was secretly surprised that Magistrate Ye's family background was much richer than she had imagined.

In the original novel, the Danyang Marquis' Mansion took so many things from Governor Ye and even sent the original owner to die. I'm afraid they must have fed their consciences to the dogs to do such a heartless thing.

Ye Jintang left the title deed of a second courtyard, and with a wave of her hand, she put all the remaining things into the space. She was thinking in her mind that she should sell all the real estate and exchange them for cash as soon as possible.

If she fails to deal with it before leaving Yuezhou, when she goes to the capital, the mountains are high and the journey is long, and all these properties will probably be wasted.

Coming out of the secret passage, Ye Jintang smiled evilly in his heart, wondering if the Danyang Marquis' Mansion would go crazy because they took back a poor orphan girl.

Ye Jintang called Lu Zhu and asked them to pack up all the things in the house and put them into boxes. She would rather let Magistrate Ye and Madam Wen take these items to the grave than leave them to those greedy scumbags.

When Luzhu was packing things in the house, Nanny Zhao came over from time to time and wanted to help, but was always rejected by Ye Jintang.

After packing up and locking the door, Ye Jintang changed into men's clothes and took Lu Zhu to the city to see the second courtyard.

There are still more than ten days before Ye Song comes to take her back to the capital. Before he comes, she has to deal with all the family property.

With hungry wolves in front and tigers and leopards behind, Ye Jintang's current situation is extremely difficult.

But for her, these little difficulties are not scary, she is even a little excited.

Fighting against the sky, fighting against the earth, fighting against people is endless fun.

Especially when it comes to dealing with those evil people who want to wipe out the whole family, Ye Jintang is even more eager to try.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the yard. Ye Jintang took only one look and gave up the idea of ​​living here.

Although it is a two-courtyard house, if the garden area is included it is not much different from a three-courtyard house. Such a large courtyard is really too big for two people to live in.

Ye Jintang sighed in his heart, wondering why Governor Ye didn't choose a smaller one when he bought the yard.

"Girl, do you want to move here and live for a while?"

Grandpa Sun, the gatekeeper, always followed Ye Jintang and took her to visit the courtyard.

"The yard is nice, but it's too big. It's not convenient for Luzhu and I to live alone."

Grandpa Sun naturally knew about the death of Magistrate Ye and Madam Wen. When he saw Ye Jintang dressed as a man, he felt very uncomfortable.

"Girl, have you ever thought about renting a small courtyard to live in?"

"I have this plan. The new prefect will be taking office soon, and I can't continue to live in the government office."

"If you don't mind, there is a small courtyard in the alley behind this yard that is looking to be rented out. I know the owner of the courtyard and I know him well."

"It's just that the yard is a little small, with only four main rooms and two side rooms."

"It's okay, I don't ask for much, just a clean and tidy house is fine."

"Okay, then I'll take the girl over to have a look."

Ye Jintang didn't mind the small yard, as long as it could accommodate her and Luzhu.
