Du Yunluo paused in her steps.
Mu Lianxiao noticed Du Yunluo's nervousness. He gently squeezed her palm, signaling her not to be afraid, and then let go, stepping inside first.
Du Yunluo secretly took a deep breath, feeling the warmth in her palm. She looked at Mu Lianxiao's back and slowly curved her lips into a smile.
The hand under her sleeve clenched, and she followed Mu Lianxiao's steps into the Flower Hall.
"Finally, you're here," Lian Family turned her gaze over, smiling as she looked Du Yunluo up and down, then said to Madam Wu, "See, I told you, didn't I? She looks very pretty and delightful."
Madam Wu smiled and nodded, exchanging a glance with Mrs. Zhou.
It was widely known that Du Yunluo was pretty, but as an elder, their expectations for the legitimate eldest daughter-in-law did not include beauty.
They valued more her character, whether she was steady, dignified, and capable of managing household affairs.
