 Chapter 240: Shu Yu Pays a Visit to the Jiang Residence

The old lady's raging anger suddenly froze as she stared at the bearded man in front of her in disbelief. For a moment, she even doubted her own hearing, wondering if her old age had affected her ears. How could she be hearing things? But Shu Yu's voice rang out again, "Grandma, did I startle you? Come, sit down and rest for a while. I'm sorry, I should have told you in advance." The old lady, still dazed, allowed herself to be guided into a seat by Shu Yu. She carefully observed her. Upon closer inspection, she could indeed see traces of Ah Yu's features on her face. "Is it really you, Ah Yu? Why did you dress up like this?" Shu Yu touched her bearded chin. "I have something to take care of. This disguise helps me remain inconspicuous." Although she had decided to use Jiang Ren to deal with Jiang Li, this matter couldn't be accomplished immediately. Unfortunately, Jiang Li was already looking for her, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would likely find his way to the shop on Ningshui Street today. Therefore, before setting up Jiang Ren as the vanguard, she needed to at least create some trouble for Jiang Li, keeping him occupied for the next few days so that he wouldn't have time to cause trouble at Yiren Pavilion. The old lady was curious. "You have something to take care of? What is it?" Did she really need to dress up as a man for it? Her intuition told her that it wasn't something simple. But Shu Yu didn't plan to explain. "Grandma, just pretend you haven't seen me dressed like this and don't tell anyone, okay?" The old lady was a shrewd person. She knew that Ah Yu must be up to something "bad." Earlier, her third son had mentioned that the matters involving the Ruan family, the Zhang family, and even Master Yu were all instigated by Ah Yu. Now, seeing how cautious she was, it was definitely not a minor issue. She didn't ask any further and only reminded her with concern, "Be careful, you hear me?" "I know." Shu Yu glanced at her own appearance and immediately put on the hat before retrieving a drab set of men's clothing. She then bid farewell. "Grandma, I'm leaving." The old lady nodded and watched as Shu Yu left the courtyard. After a while, unable to help herself, she muttered, "Ah Yu's makeup skills are amazing. Not only can she make those ladies look beautiful, but she can also transform a woman into a man. Truly impressive." Meanwhile, after Shu Yu left the house, she kept her head lowered and tried to attract as little attention as possible. Once she walked out of Liufang Lane, she turned a couple of corners and eventually entered a deserted alley. Inside, she unfolded the drab men's clothing and swiftly put it on. She didn't take off her original clothes. By wearing the new outfit, she appeared much bulkier, completely disguising her true figure. After getting dressed, she removed the hat and stuffed it into a crevice in the alley. With her disguise completed, her gaze subtly changed, and her walking style became more carefree and uninhibited. After walking a distance, she reached the Jiang Residence. Shu Yu stopped about fifty meters away from the residence, then squatted down, casually eating peanuts while occasionally keeping an eye on the direction of the Jiang Residence. This spot was visible to anyone passing by, whether they were leaving from the front or back entrance of the Jiang Residence. She loitered there for almost half an hour until she finally spotted the person who had bumped into her that day— Third Young Master Jiang , Jiang Li. Jiang Li came out through the back gate, looking furtive. He didn't bring any servants and left the house secretly. Shu Yu stayed in place for a moment, then nonchalantly stood up and trailed behind Jiang Li, following him.
