On the first day of August, Madam of the Song Family had already spent a few days postpartum, suffering difficult childbirth this time, so she was given an extended recuperation period, though she was free to move around.
With the busyness of June and July weighing on Song Ci's mind—things were not going smoothly everywhere—he decided to throw a small banquet for his grandson, Dan Ge'er, celebrating his one-month birthday to bring some joy.
Calling it a small banquet, they invited no outsiders; just the married grand-aunts of the Song Family, including Song Ruqian and Song Ruqi, who were close relatives, and the only aunt, Song Zi.
Song Ci believed that a small celebration amongst family would not neglect the little one, while also clearing away bad luck—bringing joy to all.
Song Ci also invited 'tool person' the old Master Song back to the residence, after all these years as his legitimate grandson, the child hadn't been seen yet.
