Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 239

"It will be as you wish."

Anu smiled, and let the mother-in-law paint her face not like her own, it was white and rich, just like the makeup of most brides in this era.

Su Tong watched the bride's delicate face being destroyed so much that she couldn't bear to witness it, and she didn't make a sound after all.

The brides of this era all wear makeup in this way, and the painting is the same as the one carved out of a mold.

Anu's husband-in-law status is not high.

The second son of the Yu family in Kaifeng.

The Yu family is a merchant, or a small merchant. Like most merchants, their family needs to have a backstage business to survive. It's just that a small businessman like the Yu family just wants to find a reliable backstage, and put money together. People won't be happy either, high-ranking officials also have the reserve of high-ranking officials, how can any cat or dog just rely on it?

The Yu family is considered lucky, Kou Yan has a good temperament, seeing that the head of the Yu family is pleasing to the eye, in the future when his family does business, he will help his family. He is the magistrate of Kaifeng prefecture after all.

Although the magistrate will inevitably feel aggrieved in Kaifeng, it is still possible to take care of a small businessman.

Su Tong guessed that Kou Xuan was probably afraid that Anu would be bullied, so he simply betrothed her to such a family, presumably the members of the Yu family would happily welcome Anu home and pay tribute.

In fact, even if Kou Yu didn't think so, Anu had better think so too.If she can marry happily, it will be much better than marrying unwillingly.

In the yard, there was blowing and beating, and the groom came to welcome the bride.

Finally, there was a trace of joy in the room, and Anu's sisters also came to make a round, regardless of whether they were sincere or not, anyway, they had done enough courtesy.

Su Tong felt that the daughters of Kou Yu's family were all good-natured, so they should have come to congratulate her sincerely.

Mrs. Guo also changed her previous temper, and actually went to Anu's room in person, and in front of Su Tong, gave her a small box left by her mother.

The box was made of rattan and covered with a patchwork of strong colors. Su Tong recognized at a glance that it was the handicraft of the Shengbai people.

The people of the Bai people like strong colors, and the narrow-sleeved clothes they wear are simple and simple, just for the convenience of movement, but the colors are bright and eye-catching. Their dyeing skills are not comparable to those of the Central Plains people.

Anu took the box casually and put it on the table, not taking it seriously at all.

The time to marry has come.

Su Tong stood in a very conspicuous position, seeing Anu respectfully thanking his parents, Kou Yu's eyes were filled with tears, tremblingly holding his daughter's head, whispering the teaching of filial piety to parents-in-law.

The crowd was boiling, and Su Tong vaguely saw Anu's pious face showing a trace of extremely happy expression. She didn't cry, but smiled brilliantly.

Frowning, Su Tong suddenly grabbed a maid who was serving her, and said in a low voice, "Where's Sufang?"

"Sufang is married." The maid was stunned for a moment, seeing that it was Su Tong, she quickly blessed her body, and said with a smile, "The little lady loves her very much, and she doesn't want to take her to marry someone else's family to suffer, so she promised her It was given to Sun Xiaolang in Qianjie."

There was a bit of envy in the maid's eyes, and a little bit of jealousy. Seeing that Su Tong didn't understand, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam Su, Sufang is doing well. He is a gentleman, he can read and write, and he has a younger brother who is studying in a government school, and his family background is also rich."

The envoy probably thought that it would be a pity for such a good family to compensate Sufang for being dumb. Su Tong nodded, still feeling uneasy—but, Sufang is from Anunian's mother. Before she got married, she thought about Sufang. One or two, it's normal, it shouldn't be a big deal.

However, now that Su Tong suspects that Anu is sick, it's hard not to speculate.

Sighing, she pressed her thumping heart, but it was a pity that she realized it too late, today is a day of rejoicing, if something happened, it would be Kou Yu's life.

Su Tong really didn't want Kou Yan and Kou Zhifu to be more distressed. He was already dying, and he had to make a fuss. Maybe he would die now if he got down on the ground.

If this is the case, how can Anu live!After thinking about it, Su Tong called a servant, asked him to fetch a pen and paper, and wrote a note: "Please give it to my maid for me, and ask him to... find Mr. Chen."

The young man took two silver beans, his face was full of joy, and he went away happily. Su Tong was relieved now. She wanted Chen Mo to ask Zhou Wenrui again. When the slave met, the atmosphere between the two was very weird, maybe Zhou Wenrui knew something else.

Kou Yu and Guo Shi took turns talking for a long time.

Especially Kou Yu, who was so reluctant to give up, holding Anu's hand, tears streaming down his face, Guo Shi became impatient, and forced himself to urge: "Mr. It’s not here, don’t be sad, let them go quickly, so as not to miss the auspicious time.”

The groom's officer also had a simple and honest face, not in a hurry at all.

Kou Yanqian exhorted Wan Wan, and finally sighed: "Go, go, respect your in-laws well, and live a good life with your husband, don't think about it."

The beautiful sedan chair stopped at the door.

The groom watched cheerfully as the female elders of the Kou family came to support Anu and wanted to send her to the bridal sedan chair.

There was congratulations all around, and everyone's faces were beaming. No one could tell that Anu was not familiar with them at all, and he hadn't even met them a few times.

Su Tong breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, it should be fine!
As a result, Anu suddenly raised his head, gently lifted the hijab, looked at the sky, the woman next to him was startled, and shouted: "Hey, the bride can't lift the hijab."

She hadn't finished speaking when a large number of fireworks suddenly flew up in the sky.

Bright and bright, the golden powder fell down and landed on the person's head, face, and body, and landed on the bluestone floor.

Anu laughed.

This is the first time Su Tong has seen her smile so brightly. The previous smiles were all sneers and ridicules, but today's smiles are so sweet. She thought, if it wasn't for this bad makeup, she must be more beautiful.

The floor was covered with gold powder, which was very beautiful, but Su Tong's body suddenly froze, and smelled a strange fragrance, which was very familiar, so she just brought a bottle of similar perfume to Anu, and a look of surprise appeared on her face , hastily stretched out his hand, covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, and said loudly: "Everyone hold your breath."

It was just a bit late, and everyone in the yard thought it was a show made by Kou Yan to make his daughter's face longer. They used their hands to pick up the gold powder one by one. After a while, everyone fell limp on the ground, even Su Tong shook his head. Sitting wobbly on the stone steps, he dared not move a little.

Anu's laughter grew louder and louder.

Su Tong really didn't know why she was fine, so he couldn't help but gritted his teeth. He didn't expect to suffer from a catastrophe. For some reason, he stopped worrying now, and couldn't help but think that the people in ancient times were really amazing. Such nerve anesthetics can However, it must be said that Kou Yu's courtyard is not spacious enough, too narrow, and there is no wind, otherwise, it must not have been so smooth.
