"The master and young miss are back!"
When the returning caravan halted before the manor's gates, the entire Tang Family was abuzz with excitement.
Then, starting from the main gate and following a central axis, all the intermediary doors of the eighteen courtyards were opened in sequence.
Countless house servants lined up on both sides, as the rotund Family Head Tang Sheng and the increasingly influential young miss Tang Ling'er stepped through the threshold.
These house servants all bowed in unison.
"We welcome the master and young miss home safely!"
This display made Tang Sheng stroke his beard, his face brimming with triumphant pride.
However, Tang Ling'er showed no expression, standing quietly behind her father without uttering a word.
The father and daughter pair walked directly through the first few courtyards, arriving at the boundary between the inner living quarters and the front courtyard.
