The next morning, the wet nurse arrives at the family's house to tell them the good news: they've been promoted to the rank of general. The wet nurse tells the family that she'll be traveling to the capital in seven days to get the promotion. She's worried about what to do with her new identity, since she's a relative of the family. She also worries about her mom, who's supposed to be in the capital with the family, but hasn't shown up yet.
