You receive whatever has not been specifically bequested to other people in the will.

Adding, you only receive what is left after all bills, taxes, administration expenses, costs and fees are paid. If there are more than one residual beneficiary, you take equally, unless different allocations are specified. I have not seen any documents, so only a general response is provided.
