Chapter 331: Suspicious Da Niu

 Chapter 331: Suspicious Da Niu

As Shu Yu finished dressing up and was about to leave, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside. Shu Yu's footsteps paused, and she stood still. The knocking continued, accompanied by Da Niu's voice filled with confusion, "Ah Yu, are you not at home?" Shu Yu rubbed her temples. Why did Da Niu come at this time? She hesitated whether to open the door, especially in her current appearance. Da Niu wasn't like her grandmother; he wouldn't ask many questions even if she saw her dressed as a man. However, their courtyard gate was bolted from the inside, which meant someone must be inside the house. Sure enough, Da Niu kept knocking and even tried to climb the wall to see if something had happened inside. Just then, another voice followed, "Is it the young lad from the Lu family? Looking for your Sister?" It was the voice of a neighbor aunt from Liufang Lane. Da Niu replied, "Yes, I came to bring something for my sister, but there's no response inside. I don't know if something has happened." The aunt said, "Your sister isn't at home; she went out. But your sister should be inside. Call out to her again; she might be far away and didn't hear." After saying that, the aunt also helped by calling out a couple of times. She was particularly enthusiastic. When there was no response from inside, she said she would go back to her house and bring a ladder. Shu Yu sighed. Forget it, she couldn't rely on Da Niu to go to the Yiren Pavilion and find her father. If she didn't speak up soon, not only Da Niu but also other neighbors would come in. Putting on her hood, Shu Yu cleared her throat and hurriedly shouted, "I'm here, Da Niu. Just wait a moment, I'll come and open the door for you." Upon hearing this, Da Niu outside immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The neighbor aunt also smiled and left. When only Da Niu was left outside, Shu Yu went to open the courtyard gate and let him in. Seeing her wearing a hood, Da Niu felt it was strange. He was about to ask when Shu Yu preemptively said, "Da Niu, come in first." "Wait a moment, let me bring the mule cart in," Da Niu said, turning around to lead the mule inside. After the cart entered the yard, he unloaded the things from the cart. "Yesterday, my father and I went to fourth Aunt's house. There were soldiers guarding the entrance to her house and the Yuan family's house, so we couldn't get in for the time being. But the official let it slide and allowed us to take fourth Aunt's chickens back to Shishi Village to take care of them." Although his mother wasn't very happy about it, since his father made the decision, his mother couldn't say anything. "Oh, right. I also brought clothes and some useful things for fourth Aunt and Xiaozhen. They passed the inspection by the official, so he let me bring them over. Later, I'll see if I can ask that official, Hu, to deliver them to fourth Aunt." Shu Yu nodded and neatly stored the package. Da Niu went to wash his hands and then asked her, "Why are you wearing a hood at home?" "Well... I was just about to go out." "Go out? Why are you wearing a hood?" Da Niu was indeed an observant person, and he found something unusual about Ah Yu today. He carefully examined her, "Are you really Ah Yu?" Shu Yu couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You can't even recognize my voice?" "I can hear it, but you seem different today. I knocked on the door outside for so long, and you didn't hear it? What were you doing inside?" Before Shu Yu could answer, Da Niu continued, "Take off your hood first. Let's talk here without you wearing it." Shu Yu sighed. She had a feeling that she wouldn't be able to leave the house today.
