Outside the main gate of the Shun'an Earl Mansion, the maids, older women, daughters-in-law, lackeys, and both small and large stewards stood neatly on either side of the gate, while the men and women, old and young, standing in the middle, were all dressed in brocade clothing, exhibiting an extraordinary presence.
Perhaps they had waited for a while, as the two middle-aged noblewomen standing at the forefront clearly displayed impatience in their eyes until they saw a carriage team approaching from afar. They hurriedly adjusted the ornaments on their heads, revealing smiles that did not reach their eyes. These two were Lady Shun'an and the Second Madam, both surnamed Chang.
Nanny Qin, standing behind the two, cared little for others' thoughts and, upon seeing the carriage approaching, smiled and said, "The Old Madam has arrived!"
