After some polite exchanges, Song Lingsu and Song Lingjie sat down and chatted with the family about their experiences during the exams and the dangers encountered during the disaster, making everyone gasp and put their hands together in prayer.
Song Zhiyuan also asked the two about the scenes at the exam venue and the acquaintances they visited along the way.
Song Ci noticed that although their replies were proper, their faces showed signs of fatigue, and said, "Su'er and the others have just returned to the residence, and the long journey by carriage is exhausting. I had already asked Lin Qing to prepare a formula for strengthening the body and relieving fatigue, so the servants in your quarters must have already cooked the medicinal soup. Go back to your courtyards to bathe and change clothes, and relieve the fatigue. We'll talk during the family banquet tonight."
Song Zhiyuan also said, "Yes, go ahead."
