On the road, encountering someone in need, Song Ci didn't immediately extend a helping hand but first sent someone to understand the other party's situation. Upon discovering that things were as Shang Meiniang described, she allowed a carriage to be spared.
Since their current journey included female family members, with herself, the Jiang family, and Song Ruqi accompanied by maidservants, there were six to seven carriages, not counting the guards riding alongside.
Sparing one carriage, letting the servants and maidservants squeeze a bit was manageable.
"Thank you, Madam, for your great kindness. I will certainly repay you," Shang Meiniang took two steps forward, respectfully and gratefully bowing to Song Ci.
Song Ci smiled and said, "No need for empty words, I see that Young Master Shang doesn't look well, you should quickly find a doctor."
