Chapter 246 Visit to Duke Mansion
This time the Duke Ying Mansion hosted a banquet, which was actually the Duchess’s birthday feast. However, since it was July, it was not suitable for a large celebration, so they only invited a few familiar families to join.
Even so, it was a bustling scene with carriages coming and going.
When Song Ci and her party arrived, it was Nanny Mu, a close aide of the Duchess, who came to greet them personally. Upon meeting, she immediately shared several clever sayings with a smile.
Song Ci thought to herself, to reach a position as a close steward nanny, she indeed was not someone ordinary people could compare to. Look at that mouth, as if brushed with honey oil, sweet and smooth, very articulate.
As Nanny Mu spoke, she inadvertently glanced at Song Ruqi, who was positioned behind Madam Song. Seeing her support the maid’s hand, holding herself straight, eyes focused, without the hem of her dress or ornaments moving an inch, it was evident that she had been specially trained in etiquette.
Indeed, Song Ci was a close friend of the Empress Dowager, who in the entire capital didn’t know this? Asking the Empress Dowager for two nannies from the palace for education was a simple task.
Even Song Ci’s personal nanny was bestowed by the palace.
Nanny Mu, seeing Song Ruqi’s etiquette, nodded secretly to herself. Although the Song Family was new nobility, they hadn’t skimped on management, transforming impressively. Just by looking at the children’s etiquette in the family, one could see the extent of their efforts.
