An Ning sat in an armchair, her legs spread wide out of habit. A cool breeze wafted up under her skirt, making her quickly snap them shut and sit uncomfortably like a proper lady.
An Guoping snickered from the side, only to be silenced by a single death glare from An Ning.
At the main gate, An Ercheng and Du Guijuan were wreathed in smiles. The scheming tone was gone from their voices, replaced by a touch of sincerity. It wasn't much, but it was progress.
An Ning didn't need to use her spiritual power to analyze them. Just seeing Uncle An trailing behind them was enough to know the couple had genuinely changed.
An Sancheng already knew An Ercheng's family was coming, so he wasn't surprised. He and Lin Cuihua went out to greet them, and after a few pleasantries in the courtyard, An Ercheng's family came inside.
"It was impossible to get more time off, so they only gave us two days. We made sure to come early today to lend a hand."
