Lu Sanzhu’s eyes moved. What if she implicated him and the entire Lu family?
Shu Yu leaned against the door of the carriage with her eyes closed, “If you’re scared, go back now and help feed the chicken.”
Lu Sanzhu was speechless. He was sullen but after witnessing Erya’s martial arts, he did not dare to refute her words.
In the end, Lu Sanzhu did not get off the carriage. Although he was extremely nervous, he was even more curious.
As such, when the carriage pa.s.sed by the entrance of Shangshi Village, he did not even look in the direction of his house.
The carriage arrived at Wenlan Town, and Shu Yu let the mule carriage go back.
Shu Yu touched her chin as she looked at the back view of the carriage driving away. It was more convenient to have a carriage herself.
Sigh. She had to make money.
As Shu Yu walked into the town, she turned to ask Lu Sanzhu, “Where’s the Yu family?”
Lu Sanzhu opened his mouth but didn’t want to say it. It was only when Shu Yu’s impatient expression appeared that he swiftly pointed ahead, “I’ll take you there.”
The Yu family was indeed wealthy in town. The place they lived in was the best in town.
According to Lu Sanzhu, the Yu family had houses in both the county and the prefecture. However, because their ancestral home was in Wenlan Town, they had never moved.
Shu Yu followed Lu Sanzhu and stood in front of the Yu family’s main door. As expected, the place had been renovated to look very luxurious.
Shu Yu looked around and saw a tea stall not far away. She walked over and sat down, asking the owner to serve a pot of tea.
Seeing that she didn’t barge in directly, Lu Sanzhu secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He hurriedly sat down opposite her and asked, “Erya, how… How are you going to deal with the Yu family? ”
“Cater to their likes, I suppose,” Shu Yu thought for a while and said very frankly.
Lu Sanzhu frowned. He didn’t understand. Wasn’t catering to their likes currying favor with them?
Shu Yu sipped her tea as she looked at the main entrance of the Yu family’s residence.
Few people came out of the Yu family’s main door. The servants who came in and out basically went through the small gate.
Therefore, even after staring at the entrance for a long time, she didn’t gain much.
At this point, Lu Sanzhu was dozing off.
After another half an hour, there was finally some movement at the door. A wealthily-dressed woman walked out of the door.
Shu Yu narrowed her eyes, “Who’s that?”
Lu Sanzhu jerked up and looked around, “Who?”
Shu Yu pointed at the main entrance of the Lu family’s house. Lu Sanzhu looked at the lady and said, ” that’s Madame Yu, Lord Yu’s wife.”
Shu Yu looked up at the sky, “It’s already so late. Why is Madame Yu out at this time?”
Seeing that Madame Yu had gotten into a palanquin that was parked at the door, Shu Yu immediately put down a few copper coins and stood up to follow her. Lu Sanzhu hurriedly caught up with her.
The palanquin traveled slowly along the street for a while before finally stopping in front of a small courtyard.
Madame Yu asked a maid to knock on the door, and a man dressed like a Daoist priest walked out.
Shu Yu narrowed her eyes. Could this be the fortune-teller who had read Lord Yu’s fortune and suggested that he adopt twins?
What should she do? She felt like rolling up her sleeves and rushing in to beat the other party up.
Shu Yu watched as Madame Yu walked into the courtyard and the palanquin was temporarily lifted away from the alley.
Now, there were only Madame Yu, her maidservant, and the fortune-teller in the courtyard.
Shu Yu looked left and right, found the easiest position to climb up the wall, stomped hard, and jumped onto the wall while no one was around.
Lu Sanzhu was speechless.. Hadn’t his good niece forgotten something? What about him?
