Shu Yu stood on the wall and saw that there was no one in the courtyard. She immediately landed lightly in the courtyard.
There was some movement from the central room inside. Shu Yu followed the sound and saw the fortune-teller and Madame Yu sitting there talking. The maidservant was serving tea.
After talking for a short while, Madame Yu had the maidservant stand guard in the courtyard.
When Shu Yu saw the maidservant come out, she hurriedly took a few steps back and hid in a corner.
The maidservant moved a stool over and sat by the courtyard door.
Shu Yu frowned. If she wanted to eavesdrop outside the central room again, she would definitely be seen by this maidservant. What should she do?
Just as she was thinking about whether she should go around to the back to take a look, she heard the fortune-teller and Madame Yu leave the central room and enter the left wing.
Outside the window of the wing room was where Shu Yu was hiding.
