Chapter 1093: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1093: Staying Overnight at the Jing Residence
After leaving the study, Shu Yu originally intended to bid farewell to Chang Shi. However, Chang Shi had already learned from Assistant Minister Jing that Shu Yu would accompany him to the Ministry of Justice tomorrow morning. She immediately suggested, "How about staying here for the night? I'll have a guest room prepared. This way, you can leave with my husband tomorrow morning, and it'll be more convenient."
Shu Yu thought about it and agreed. Coming back and forth multiple times might attract unnecessary attention, and she still had many questions to ask Minister Jing. She hadn't been able to discuss many things with him when he rushed out earlier.
If Assistant Minister Jing returned home in the evening, she might be able to ask more about the Gong family.
At least, she only knew that Meng Yunzheng was in the prison cell of the Ministry of Justice, but what about Zhao Xi? They came together, so where was he now?
Thinking about this, Shu Yu didn't decline Chang Shi's offer. She asked her servant, Ying Xi, to go back to the inn and bring all her luggage and makeup.
The servant from the Yao family, who had been waiting for so long, reported back to madam Yao. Madam Yao waved her hand and let the servant leave. She didn't need to wait any longer; if Shu Yu had an important matter, she would come to the Yao residence.
However, madam Yao didn't know that Shu Yu had received precise information from Assistant Minister Jing and was currently focused on meeting Meng Yunzheng as soon as possible. Going to the Yao residence was no longer on her mind.
Now that she was at the Jing residence, she wanted to wait for Minister Jing to return in the evening. Who knew that he wouldn't come back until it was very late, and it was too inappropriate for her to find him at such an hour.
So, on the second day, she woke up early and started dressing up. When Chang Shi came over, Shu Yu had already changed into the attire of an attendant, and she was having Ying Xi check if everything looked appropriate.
Chang Shi was surprised, "You're really Lady Lu? Your skills are... incredible. I saw the makeup you did for my cousin before, but I didn't realize you were so talented. Just now, when I entered the room, I almost thought some audacious servant had dared to sneak in. It scared me, and this scar on your cheek looks so real."
Her fingers itched to touch it, but she restrained herself. Otherwise, Shu Yu might have to redo the makeup on her cheeks.
"Your skills are like changing your appearance. Even if you open a shop in the capital, you won't have to worry about not having any customers."
Shu Yu smiled, not mentioning that she had already handed over the management of Yiren Pavilion to her elder sister.
She changed the subject and asked Chang Shi if there was anything else that looked inappropriate.
