Chapter 0815: Receiving Letters and Storing Books 2

The old couple stared at each other with wide eyes, but in the end, it was Lou Shaonong who made the decision.

"We'll use the camphor wood chests at home to store the books and paintings. Wrap the books and paintings in moisture-proof oil paper and silk, then put the camphor wood chests inside sealed larger chests. Between the large and small chests, we'll add a layer of iron sheeting. Bury them deep, and every year around the time of the Festival for Drying Books, we can take them out to air them and also check whether the books and paintings have been damaged."

Beyond that, there was no other way.

Lin Yufen sighed, "We'll have to do as you say. While we're at it, let's stuff those antiques that are dispensable in our home and the jewelry my mother-in-law left me in there too. Those things won't fear dampness or insects when buried underground."

Because they cherished their collection of books and paintings too much, they didn't dare take risks.
