Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 114 Marriage
Su Tong laughed and shook her head. In fact, she was just a bystander. After all, she had read so many detective novels in her previous life, and she instinctively suspected the first discoverer. It was normal for her father not to notice it, but Zhao Tuiguan didn't. Like an inexperienced person, he can't detect the problem, which is a bit strange.

Of course, no matter whether Zhao Tuiguan realized something was wrong from the very beginning, he just suffered from lack of evidence to make random suspicions, or he himself didn't know anything, or there were other reasons, it had nothing to do with Su's father and daughter.

Now Su Wencheng and Su Tong don't have time to get too entangled in this matter.

Because, the marriage between Su Wencheng and Li Jiaxiuniang has been confirmed.

In fact, the speed of the two of them was not so fast, but these days, there are more and more people who are mediators for Su Wencheng. It’s not too good. There are various disagreements with the relatives. After thinking about it for a long time, Su Wencheng still thinks that the wife of the Li family has a very good temperament. In addition, the children did not say anything against it later. He nodded in agreement.

It was not the first time for the two of them to get married, and they were both older and older, so they planned not to make a big deal, just invite close friends and relatives of both families to get together.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Wanrong disagreed at all, and insisted that Su Wencheng hold a big event in a lively manner, so as not to wrong Li Xiuniang. After getting married, go to work again.

Although Qingzhou is not a very bad place, it is a bit remote after all. Once I go to the post, I am afraid that I will not be able to return to the capital for a long time. It is better to complete the marriage in Bianliang.

When Su Wencheng discussed with his own daughter, they thought that Li Xiuniang's life was miserable, and Su Wencheng really wanted to live a good life with her. Since the Eldest Princess made a request, he would naturally not refuse.

Although it is said that the wedding is to be held in accordance with the etiquette, in fact, it is not very troublesome.

Today is not the previous dynasty, the wedding is cumbersome, and the six rituals are indispensable. Compared with the previous wedding ceremony, the wedding ceremony in the Song Dynasty is already much simpler.

There is no way, the war in the previous dynasty, the rites and music collapsed, the common people have long forgotten those cumbersome etiquettes, even in the Song Dynasty, the officials wanted to restore the etiquette system, but they were powerless. I have to say that the officials of the Song Dynasty The family is the emperor who speaks best, so naturally it is impossible to force the common people for this matter.

Nowadays, even royal weddings still retain the previous six rites, and other weddings, even those of aristocratic families who pay attention to etiquette, only have three rites left.

That is, accepting, accepting, and welcoming.

And the procedures are as simple as possible, so the torment of the bride and groom will not be too much, which makes Su Tong heave a sigh of relief.

There is no way, the population of the Su family is simple, and now there is only Su Tong, a girl who has never been married. Besides, the wedding time is urgent, and it is too late to ask the old clan wife from the hometown for help. Su Tong broke it into eight petals by himself, but it was still not enough.

When Su Wencheng married Su Tong's mother, Mrs. Chen, there were not many things at all. It was very simple. Ms. Chen was originally a bride bought by the Su family, and she was from the countryside. I read from the book that he can't handle it by himself.

Fortunately, there is a warm-hearted Zhao Wanrong to help, and many tedious steps are done with her help and guidance.

After working hard for half a month, everything is ready, and tomorrow will be the last step of Su Wencheng's wedding.

That night, Su Wencheng took a pair of children to worship his dead wife.

Because the moon and stars were scarce, Su Tong took a deep breath and smiled and said, "Tomorrow should be a fine weather. Daddy should rest early, so we can get married tomorrow."

Su Wencheng smiled, and there was not much joy on his face, but a little melancholy. Su Tong couldn't help guessing that he must be suffering from premarital depression right now.

"I have wronged your mother, and you only follow me in trouble, and you can't share wealth with me."

Su Tong smiled bitterly: "Daddy, look away, you should take pity on the person in front of you, and don't make the bride sad." The deceased is gone, and compared to her mother, who she didn't remember deeply, she hopes that her father He has a bright future. After all, he is not in his seventies or eighties, he is still very young. He must have a good woman who knows the cold and the hot to warm the house, so that he can live a happy life.

Although Su Tong has always been concerned about Li Xiuniang's infertility, she has always been a little concerned about Li Xiuniang's infertility, but after listening to Zhao Wanrong's words and knowing that it would be better for Erlang, she already thinks that Li Xiuniang is quite suitable to be her stepmother. Well, once you marry into the Su family, you will be a stepmother, and your husband may not be particularly considerate.

Su Tong was here feeling sorry for the bride who hadn't entered yet, but he didn't know that the bride didn't feel wronged.

In such an era, no woman can expect her husband to love her wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly. As soon as they are born, they step into misery.

This is still a woman in the Song Dynasty. If you want to change to the Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty a little later, the life of a woman will be even more difficult.

The father and daughter said a few words, Erlang was so sleepy, Su Wencheng sent his son to bed first, and then went back to his room to rest.

In the early morning of the second day, Su Wencheng got up with a pair of dark circles under his eyes. Su Tong prepared everything early, watched people paint him with makeup and red flowers, dressed him up well, and then sent his father out in person.

Su Wencheng put on a bright red auspicious suit, a black gauze tent on his head, rode a white horse covered in red and colorful, led the wedding party, and walked out of the gate of the Su family.

Li House.

Although the Li family had an imperial concubine, they were down and out. Especially in recent years, Li's eldest son was convicted and exiled, and the family's family declined, which had long shown a sense of decadence. The mansion was not considered a big mansion, and even the walls fell down. There are mottled shadows, but today, it is decorated with lights and colorful, beaming.

It wasn't too late for Li Xiuniang to get up, before five o'clock, she got up, and under the service of the maid, she did a rare and beautiful bridal makeup.

Facing herself in the mirror wearing a bright red auspicious suit, Li Xiuniang touched a pair of gold earrings on her earlobe.

The maid helped her put on the pearls and emeralds. Over the years, she has always used less makeup, and she has never been as beautiful as she is today.

She was originally a beauty, and she was not too old, but now she was dressed up, she was really rare and beautiful.

Zhao Wanrong ran to Li's house to see her lightly, tidied her auspicious clothes, and couldn't help showing a little smile on her face.

"Su Wencheng is a good man. You marry him, and it's a good home for you. Live a good life with him. This is also your luck."

A look of shame flashed across Li Xiuniang's face, she lowered her eyes and nodded indiscernibly.

When the time came, Zhao Wanrong blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "Go, go burn incense."

Some aunts of the Li family rushed forward and surrounded Li Xiuniang to worship their ancestors, but Zhao Wanrong did not follow, she was just a guest.

The Su family's wedding was extremely lively, not only Su Wencheng's classmates visited, but even dignitaries came to congratulate them, and even the officials sent their inner ministers to present a big gift, which gave Su Wencheng enough face.

But Su Tong left behind the excitement of the family and got into Zhao Wanrong's carriage.

Today is indeed a rare sunny day.

Zhao Wanrong leaned lazily on the carriage, took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "The incense on your body smells really good."

Su Tong smiled, but did not speak.

Sitting lazily for a long while, Zhao Wanrong suddenly smiled and said softly: "You know why I took you away from your father's wedding today?"

Su Tong sighed, remained silent for a moment, and finally said: "I'm not stupid." Then, she took out the pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants from her sleeve, a relic left by her mother.

Zhao Wanrong was stunned, reached out to take it, caressed it carefully, and couldn't help showing a smile on her face: "You are really a smart child, just like her..., smart and beautiful. I can guess it when I see you. Your mother must be as cute and clever as I imagined."

Su Tong didn't say a word, and his heart fell back into his stomach safely. Although he had already guessed that Zhao Wanrong might have an unusual relationship with her mother, but before Tu Qiong saw her, how could she know what to do? Still a little uncertain, this Zhao Wanrong has always been ambiguous, and I can't see what she is thinking.

Su Tong has never been afraid of trouble, but hates any uncontrollable situation. Obviously, with her current status, what Princess Zhao Wanrong can bring is obviously uncontrollable things. What she can do , only calmly, waiting silently.

"I guess it's time for the princess to have a showdown with me." Su Tong frowned.

That day in the inn, she saw with her own eyes that Steward Chen was holding a jade pendant in the shape of a dragon that was exactly the same as her own. There should be many, but the surname is Chen, and at the same time, there is another one in the family, which is very similar to the jade pendant of my mother. It is too far-fetched for the jade pendant to insist that it has nothing to do with my family.

His patriarch seems to have a lot of status in the capital. After this incident, Su Tong guessed that some troublesome things would come to his door. He also vaguely guessed that this incident might have something to do with Zhao Wanrong. After all, it has been so long Since then, Zhao Wanrong has treated her too differently.

Naturally, the eldest princess didn't know that a lot of messy thoughts flashed through Su Tong's mind as soon as she changed her mind.She slowly stretched out her hand, and carefully touched Su Tong's smooth hair, as if she had fallen into a long memory.

"When your mother was born, I watched her. She was born prematurely, not yet a month old. She was born thin and small. The imperial physicians in the palace said that she couldn't support her. I always knew the temperament of those people. If one point is bad, they will exaggerate it to five points, I simply don't want to believe it, sure enough, although you have taken a lot of medicine and suffered a lot, your mother still let me support you."
