Right now, she had to make arrangements for the present matters.

The interspace was with her, and her trip would probably be a few years long. She had to leave behind sufficient food at home, otherwise all her family and the grandpas and grandmas at the cowshed would suffer.

Although food could not be stored for several years and would not taste good if stored for too long, there was still no issue with storing for two to three years.

Old rations might not taste as nice as fresh ones, but it was still better than having nothing!

If she left more food behind, at least she could ensure that the family would not have any food shortage in the coming three years. With these foods as a complement, they could scrimp on other foods, and her father can even use these foods to barter for other foods in the black market.

There was a large basement in the Gu family’s house which was rather hidden. Outsiders knew nothing about it, and the Gu family did not really use it either.

Gu Qingyao placed more than one thousand kilograms of white rice and flour, more than two hundred kilograms of noodles, some meat and some marinated lamb and pork.

She did not put much in, as, after all, this was the house basement, and if it was found out by someone else, the Gu family definitely would not be able to escape.

Asides, there was a hidden chamber underground at the back of the cowshed. That was one of the several hidden chambers that the Gu family had during its peak and was built in a relatively remote place to prevent the public from finding out about it.

Presently, the Gu family’s mansion no longer existed, and the cowshed was modified. That hidden chamber was considered quite far away from the current Gu family’s house, and even if it was found out, they could completely pretend to be ignorant of it.

That area was relatively remote and used to be where the servants of the Gu family lived. It was possible to say that some of the wealthier servants constructed that place.

Some of the Gu family’s treasures were also hidden in that place.

No one has entered that hidden chamber for many years. It was a finely constructed place that was very dry inside, and water would not enter it at all, so food could be stored there for a long time.

Gu Qingyao went there to keep all the treasures into her interspace before placing more than two thousand kilograms of fine grain and more than one thousand kilograms of coarse grains. As a precaution, she even placed some worthless accessories there.

All these items were according to the standard that the Gu family’s servants used, whereby those who led better lives back then would be able to achieve this standard.

It could be easily told that the items like gold or silver accessories and decorations definitely were not hidden by the Gu family as they were not very valuable!

Thus, even if this hidden chamber was discovered, Gu Yunshen could get away with saying that he did not know about it and that the items were probably hidden by their past servants.

Additionally, Gu Qingyao gave Gu Yunshen 20,000 yuan.

“Father, take this money. Keep it for emergencies.”

Gu Yunshen hurriedly rejected it. “No need. Keep it for yourself. There’s nothing bad about bringing more money with you when you’re out. I won’t use such a huge sum of money in our hometown, and those savings at home are already sufficient. Your uncles and older cousins would send money back too. We don’t need this.”

“Father, it’s too inconvenient for me to make anything after I leave. What if the family needs money?”

Gu Yunshen smiled. “What would require so much money? Throughout all these years, the family has not used so much money. With food and living necessities that you left for us, we really don’t need so much money. I’ll take five thousand yuan. You can take the rest.”

With Gu Qingyao around for the past two years, the family had led much more comfortable lives, and everyone was almost used to it. Without Gu Qingyao in the future, they might not get used to it.
