Answer:

B) She disguises herself as a brothel owner.

Explanation:

"Granny and the Golden Bridge" by Claribel Alegria is a short story about the narrator Manuel's grandmother who owned a small hut near the Golden Bridge and helped the troops in spying for them. But after one of the compas was killed, the Guards were looking for the old granny who used to cook for the troops. In disguise, she acted as a brothel owner, telling the troops that the old lady had moved away after the bridge was blown up.
