A carriage from the Duke Shun Mansion appeared in front of the Marquis Ning Mansion an hour later, just as it stopped, the Ning family's servants outside brought over a footstool.
Without waiting for Tan Jiang's assistance, Yu Tingwan lifted her skirt and got down. She heard Marchioness Ning exclaim joyfully from ahead.
"My niece-in-law."
Yu Tingwan had just raised her eyes when she saw Marchioness Ning descending the steps to greet her. Realizing this, she quickly stepped forward: "Aunt."
"Oh, dear."
Marchioness Ning warmly took her hand and looked her up and down: "It hasn't been long, but you've grown more graceful. It shows how fortunate Gui Zhi is."
Yu Tingwan showed no shyness, letting her tease with a composed smile at the corners of her mouth.
Quite a few carriages were parked outside the mansion; guests likely had mostly arrived by this hour.
