Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Song 3 Returns with Bai Lian

At the General’s house, the eldest daughter-in-law who had been married for three years with no sign of pregnancy finally had good news. As this information spread, people became even more convinced of the effectiveness of Song Ci’s pregnancy-prone calculation method, treating the women’s health handbook as a treasured item.

Why? It was because the little booklet contained things that revealed secrets troubling women, where anyone who read it knew the unspeakable difficulties within. Now that there’s a small solution, how could one not be moved to tears with gratitude?

Women, who doesn’t have a few little ailments they’re embarrassed to mention?

For a while, the women’s health handbook circulated swiftly among the circles of noblewomen. Those who couldn’t obtain it at gatherings would borrow it from friends to copy it down. Meanwhile, some curious doctors and imperial physicians, too embarrassed to read it openly, would sneak and steal their own wives’ copies to read. Some things were understood in an instant.

What kind of divine figure is Song Madam, knowing all this?

Song Ci knew that it was because she was a person from the technological age. She had once acted as a gynecologist, and after ’searching Baidu’ for information, then communicating and organizing with Lin Qing, this health booklet was created.

Later, this health handbook continued to be passed down among women, with some jokingly calling it a ’Women’s Friend Booklet.’

And when those people learned the ovulation calculation method, goodness, one after another, the already healthy noblewomen in the capital circle began spreading good news. This wave of birth rates significantly increased compared to the past.

Good news was frequently heard in the Beijing circle, and even the Imperial Family spread good tidings. When Song Ci occasionally went out, people looked at her as if she were indeed a Fertility Goddess.

At the Prime Minister’s Mansion, however, Song Madam was filled with endless grievances. Compared to outsiders, she knew more, so why hadn’t any news come? Could it really be due to her age, unable to conceive?

With such thoughts, Song Madam seemed to resign herself, stopped taking medicine, showing an expression of acceptance.

Fortunately, good news came from Song Lingsu. He passed the county examination, securing the top Scholar position and was already on his way home.

Song Madam smiled so widely that her teeth showed, rewarding everyone in the mansion with celebratory money. With good news from all three children, even if she couldn’t have another child, she wouldn’t be too heartbroken.

As autumn was coming to an end, a convoy entered the boundaries of Shangjing, heading towards the capital city.

"Brother, we’ve already entered the boundaries of Shangjing. Why don’t you return home quickly on horseback so that our siblings won’t worry? We’ll arrive tomorrow." A soft, gentle voice sounded inside the spacious carriage.

"It won’t make much of a difference, a day or half a day. I’ll stay with you and the children, but you’ve reminded me. I’ll send Li Sheng and the others ahead on horseback to report." Indeed, this convoy was the return party of Song Zhiqing from Shanxi.

Bai Shuilian, soft as a boneless willow, leaned in Song Zhiqing’s embrace, knitting her brows and sighing softly.

"What’s wrong?"

"I am a bit worried." Bai Shuilian looked up at him, revealing her slender neck. Her captivating peach blossom eyes shimmered with tears, threatening to overflow, evoking compassion.

"Brother, I swore back then not to become someone else’s concubine, but seeing you, I was willing to ruin my life, even if it meant shortening it by ten years." Bai Shuilian said sorrowfully, "I shouldn’t have come between you and Madam, but helplessly... Brother, promise me. No matter how Madam neglects or mistreats me, do not get angry with her. Because I deserve all this."

Song Zhiqing felt a poignant ache, saying, "You silly girl, why are you so silly? Don’t worry, if she’s too excessive, I won’t stand idly by."

Though he said this, judging by his hesitant tone, I’d believe it when I see it.

Bai Shuilian showed a timid smile, nestling in his arms.
