It wasn't long before Mrs. Qi's sister-in-law from her maternal family also arrived.
Originally, Mrs. Qi intended not to hold a grand ceremony for the baby's third-day bath. Since the Eldest Princess had just returned, the family could just gather for a meal together.
Mrs. Qi's sister-in-law teased her with a cheerful smile, saying that Mrs. Qi had a falling out with Madam Qi yesterday. Madam Qi was too embarrassed to come but still missed her daughter and granddaughter, so she sent her over to beg them not to send her away.
It is said that one cannot hit a smiling face. Mrs. Dong said courteous words with a laugh, warmly welcoming the guests inside.
Before a cup of tea could be consumed, Mrs. Dong's sister-in-law, Mrs. Song, also arrived with her daughter.
Fortunately, Mrs. Dong had prepared and ordered the servants to set up a few extra tables, making the lively event more festive for the Bai family's eighth daughter, Bai Wanqing's third-day bath feast.
