However, just as Shu Yu got dressed and got up, there was a knock on the door.
Shu Yu stopped in her tracks.
The knocking continued, and Danius puzzled voice could be heard.
Grandmother, are you not at home?
Shu Yu rubbed her temples. Why was Brother Daniu here at this time?
She hesitated to open the door, especially in her current state. Daniu wasnt like her grandmother, who didnt ask much when she dressed up as a strong man.
However, the door to their house was bolted from the inside, which meant that there must be someone in the house.
Sure enough, Daniu was still knocking on the door. He even wanted to climb up the wall to see if anything had happened inside.
At this moment, another voice followed closely. Its the Lu familys kid. Are you here to look for your Grandmother?
It was the voice of an aunt from Liufang Alley. Daniu replied, Yes, Im here to deliver something to my Grandmother, but theres no sound from inside. I wonder if something happened.
The woman said, Your Grandmother isnt at home. She went out, but your sister should be there. If you keep calling her, she might not hear you because shes far away.
After saying that, the aunt also helped to shout twice.
She was especially enthusiastic. When there was no response, she said that she wanted to go to her house to bring a ladder over.
Shu Yu sighed. Forget it, she couldnt count on Daniu to go to Yiren Pavilion to look for her father. If she didnt make a sound, not only Brother Daniu, but the other neighbors would also come in.
Shu Yu put on the curtain hat and coughed lightly. She hurriedly shouted, Im coming, Brother Daniu. Wait a moment. Ill open the door for you right away.
When Daniu heard this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
The lady next door also left with a smile.
When Daniu was the only one left outside, Shu Yu went over to open the courtyard door and let someone in.
Daniu felt strange when he saw her wearing a curtained hat.
Just as he was about to ask, Shu Yu said first, Brother Daniu, come in first.
Wait a moment, Ill drive the mule carriage in. Da Niu said as he turned around to lead the mule.
When the mule carriage entered the courtyard, he took the things off the cart. My father and 1 went to my Fourth Aunts house yesterday. Many soldiers guard her house and Yuans house. We cant enter for the time being. However, the bailiff made an exception and took the chickens from Fourth Aunts house for us. Well bring them back to Shangs.h.i.+ Village to help raise them.
Although his mother wasnt too happy, her father had made the decision this time, so his mother couldnt say anything.
Oh, there are also Fourth Aunt and Xiaozhens clothes and some useful things. The official checked that there were no problems, so he asked me to bring them over. Later, he would see if he could ask Officer Hu to send it to
Fourth Aunt.
Shu Yu nodded and put away the bag.
Daniu went to wash his hands and asked her, Why are you wearing a curtained hat at home?
Yes I was just about to go out.
Why are you wearing a curtained hat when you go out? Daniu was indeed a
meticulous person. He felt that Yu was acting strangely today.
He sized her up carefully. Are you really Yu?
Shu Yu couldnt help but roll her eyes. You cant even recognize my voice?
I can hear it, but youre a little different today. I knocked on the door for so long just now, but you didnt hear it? What are you doing inside?
Before Shu Yu could answer, Daniu said, Take off your curtain hat first. Only we are talking here. Dont wear it.
Shu Yu, She felt like she couldnt leave the house today..
