Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 211 Helpless
When Su Tong came home, it was rare to see her father sitting in the living room drinking tea, apparently waiting for her.

Su Wencheng may be transferred back to the capital, but he doesn't know whether he will work in the Ministry of Household Affairs or the Ministry of Punishment. However, the official order has not yet come down. He is currently on vacation, but it is a pity that he is on vacation. In fact, he is often called by officials and various departments. The husband went to talk, and he didn't even have time to rest.

In the past two days, he only accompanied Li Xiuniang back to Li's house, and then visited his classmates and friends like a horse on a horse, and was busy at other times, busy asking the officials and friends over and over again. Those very excited husbands report to work.

Su Tong occasionally listened to his father's complaints, and couldn't help feeling a little more sympathetic to Su Wencheng. It made Su Langjun, who dared to do things and seldom complained, so troubled. It seemed that the errands were difficult to do, and they all said that they were the best in the world. It is an official, but these days, it is not so easy to be an official.

"Father, aren't you going to meet Wang Shilang today? Is he the Minister of Rites? Some people call him Wang Longtu, and some people call him something... Anyway, it's that person... Why did you come back so early?"

Su Wencheng was so angry that his smart and talkative daughter made his beard fly, he couldn't laugh or cry and said: "You girl, don't talk nonsense, if you let others hear it, you should treat it as a father who is disrespectful to Wang Shilang .”

Su Tong sighed and shut her mouth. Anyway, she had clearly recited it many times, but except for people in her own network, she would never be able to figure out those messy official positions.

The official system in the early Song Dynasty was chaotic, not to mention her, even those veterans who had been officials for several years, I am afraid it would be difficult to figure it out.

"The queen mother...does her old man have any explanation?"

Su Wencheng was a little nervous, put his hands on the warm teacup, and frowned. Although he didn't say anything, he was still quite afraid of the queen mother.

As long as he is not a fool, everyone knows that there must be a game between the grown-up officials and the queen mother who still wants to control power.

Even if the officials are benevolent and filial to the queen mother, even if the queen mother is not such a foolish person who does not care about the consequences, even if the officials of the Song Dynasty have great power, they will never allow the events of Wu Zhou to repeat in this dynasty. If there is a disturbance, I don't know how many unlucky ghosts will be affected.

Su Wencheng was absolutely unwilling to be the one who was sacrificed in their mother-son game.

"Dad, don't worry." Su Tong smiled, "The queen mother is very kind, she just chatted with my daughter, and she doesn't feel embarrassed."

Compared with Su Wencheng, Su Tong is very relaxed. Anyway, unless the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty committed heinous crimes, they were nothing more than exile, and they would not be beheaded, and they would be less involved. Don't worry.

Perhaps Miss Su is so heartless.

It's just that the daughter of the champion's family is about to reach the age of two decades, and it is at this time that women often marry late, but at this age, it is rare to be unengaged. Su Tong's reputation is not bad, and there is a eldest princess A boudoir close friend like Zhao Wanrong has a fairly close relationship with many ladies in the capital and has a wide network of contacts. Marrying a bride in this era means marrying her, who can bring a large dowry and contacts to the door, and can afford the family professional woman?
For several days, it was fine if Su Wencheng was not at home, but whenever he was at home, a matchmaker would come to ask him what kind of family he wanted to find for Su Tong.

Su Tong felt annoyed, but Su Wencheng and Li Xiuniang couldn't get enough of it. Anyway, these official media are all good people. One will come to the door, and the other will never rush over to collide. The two of them listen to people talking about the young talents in the capital every day, and choose the future. The son-in-law felt very refreshed, almost as a pastime.

Li Xiuniang often takes Su Tong out to see each other.

This is indeed a good thing in this era, unless it is the kind of aristocratic family with strict etiquette, there are very few real blind marriages, and before the engagement, at least they have to meet each other.

"In less than half a month, how many colored satins have I given away? Do you really think that the samples produced by our laboratory are worthless?"

It's hot now, Su Tong is sitting on a chair, A-Zhen is desperately fanning her, A-Xia replaces the herbal tea in her hand with warm tea, and the iceberg next to her is a little closer, A-Xia greets the little maids Put the iceberg farther away: "Don't be greedy for coolness, be careful of getting sick, you are proficient in medicine, why are you so careless?"

Su Tong lay down on the table and sighed, "I chose them all, but my parents are not happy. What can I do? If this goes on, they won't bother them, and I don't have time to waste it."

In fact, she felt that the young gentleman who came to see him twice was really good. One came from a family of military generals, with bronze skin and a healthy physique. He has a free and easy manner, a sword hanging from his waist, and he speaks loudly. He is not like these weak and weak princes who are now painted and painted.

These two times, she really wanted to put the golden hairpin on her head, but Li Xiuniang secretly twisted it several times, her arm was almost bruised. After all, she couldn't hold back her elders, and this kind of handsome man still has no chance for her.

According to the current rules, if the man agrees, he will give the woman a golden hairpin, and if the woman puts the gold hairpin on her head, it means that she has found a match.

A Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't exaggerate, little lady, you have only seen three of them in the past half month."

Blind dates are not random, at least both parties must have the willingness to get married, unlike in the 21st century, men and women can go on blind dates casually.

"As for the two you like, how could the lord and the lady be willing? We don't dislike generals, but we only found out that he already has two concubines in his family, and the other one is even more terrible. He even gave birth to three children. You have a son too, so it's too careless. If you didn't inquire late, you wouldn't even be allowed to meet."

Su Tong frowned: "At this time of year, is there still a man who will keep himself clean until his twenties?" Those who are not serious about taking concubines are all good men. Who didn't have one or two intercourse before marriage?

She was just looking for a husband so that she could truly become an adult and be able to act more conveniently, but she didn't want to fall in love.If Su Tong does not marry, she will always be the daughter of the Su family. Her father and Li Xiuniang are in charge of the family.

It's okay in Qingzhou, the folk customs are simple and open, she considers herself a mountain leader, and when she goes to school to teach, no one will make irresponsible remarks, but in Kaifeng, there are many inconveniences.

It is impossible for Su Wencheng to be a foreigner forever, and he has to return to Beijing. Su Tong also wants to gain a firm foothold in this ancient capital.

After all, she still likes this dynasty, this Kaifeng, and she gradually lives so hard not all because of the agreement with Lin Mu.
