CHAPTER 555: CHAPTER 555 I’M REALLY NOT THE FERTILITY GODDESS

It is often said that good news doesn’t travel, but what kind of family is the Song Family? Secretly and in the open, numerous disguised spies keep a close watch on the happenings of the Song Family.

This Mid-Autumn Festival just passed, and the Prime Minister’s Madam rushed to the Duke Ying Mansion early in the morning with large parcels, and then returned with a beaming smile. The next day, she went to the Gu Family the same way, with large bags and a joyful face.

With such commotion, it’s hard for people not to let their imagination run wild. Curious folks inquired and found out, good heavens, that two daughters of the Song Family, who were already married, were diagnosed with pregnancy on the same day.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu Family, who had a daughter only last November, is pregnant again within just a year?

Having two kids in three years, how do those daughters-in-law who haven’t conceived for a long time after marriage bear this?

And the second Miss Song is even more impressive. She married into the Duke Ying Mansion just over three months ago, and now she’s expecting. Such speed and constitution make people envious!

Seeing the Song Family women, whether married out or newlywed, getting pregnant early, people who previously thought Old Lady Song had a secret formula once again became intrigued.

Old Lady Song of the Song Family must be visited.

For a while, invitations or visit requests to Song Ci flew towards her like snowflakes, piling up the entire table.

What, Song Ci declined? No worries. If this route doesn’t work, then seek another. After all, the Song Family doesn’t only have Song Ci among their female family members. Visiting some Madams to foster relationships is also possible.

And as etiquette dictates, when visiting someone else’s home, one must pay respect to their Old Lord, right? That’s the most basic etiquette.

Song Ci: "..."

She underestimated the ancient people’s eagerness for seeking offspring.

However, for heaven’s sake, she truly doesn’t have any secret formula!

Even Old Wei was asked to connect and brought a young lady to meet her, who was the eldest daughter-in-law of Great General Tong.

Great General Tong is in charge of the Imperial Guards in the capital, and his son is also a member of the Imperial Army.

Before Song Ci could open her mouth, that Lady Tong suddenly knelt in front of her, begging her to save her.

"Oh dear, child, speak properly, why are you kneeling? Hurry and get up. Hong You, quickly help Lady Tong up." Song Ci felt her scalp tingling.

To go this extreme right away, truly exhausting.

However, Lady Tong shook off Hong You’s hand and said, "I won’t get up, Old Madam, please give me a way out. If I truly can’t conceive, my mother-in-law will take a concubine for my husband."

"You get up first, or I’ll be angry."

Under her glare, Lady Tong stood up with the help of a maid, sobbing.

She has been married for three years with no news from her womb. Not to mention her in-laws being anxious, even her husband is worried. He can’t withstand the pressure from his parents either.

Therefore, Lady Tong was desperate. After being refused by Song Ci, she sought out Old Madam Wei, who was close to Song Ci and also somewhat her aunt.

"Old sister, I feel sorry for this child. If you have any methods, will you grant her a fortunate event?" said Old Madam Wei.

Song Ci couldn’t help but cry and laugh, "Old Wei, I’m truly not the Fertility Goddess, why are you also... Alright then, young lady, is your menstrual cycle normal? What did the Imperial Physician say?"

Lady Tong blushed, saying everything is normal. The Imperial Physician checked the pulses of both her and her husband, and found nothing wrong, but they just couldn’t conceive.

Song Ci recalled an ancient drama she had seen before. There was a plot where these ancient people got confused about the woman’s safe period, resulting in a big misunderstanding and causing delays in conceiving.

She cleared her throat, hesitantly asking about Lady Tong’s bedroom matters.

Lady Tong: "..."

Old Madam Wei: "..."

Is it that forward?

Song Ci: It’s not that I’m eager for gossip, it’s just one of the necessary steps—inspection, inquiry, and analysis for conceiving!
