Just as Song Ci and Madam Shen were having a pleasant conversation, the people from the Duke Zhongyong Mansion also arrived, and again there were mutual courtesies exchanged and introductions made.
Song Ruqi and Song Ruwei also came to entertain the guests. After all, there were few people at the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even fewer young ladies. Apart from the eldest daughter who was already married, there were only two young ladies left. By next summer, when Song Ruqi marries, there will only be one unwed maiden remaining.
"Why haven't I seen your second Madam?" Madam Shen observed that both the senior Madam and Mrs. Lu were present, but there was no sign of the second Madam Jiang, and she couldn't help but be curious.
Song Ci smiled and said, "She's not feeling too well, just resting in the courtyard, so she won't be meeting guests."
Madam Shen's eyes flashed slightly as she asked, "It's nothing serious, is it?"
"It's nothing major; she'll be fine in a couple of months."
