Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 37
The heavy rain was pouring down, and it was another rainy day. There was steam in the house, and the bedding was wet to the touch. It was estimated that if it rained for a while, everything in the house would be moldy.

A lamp like a bean.

Su Tong and Su Wencheng sat in front of the table. The table was covered with messy papers. The father and daughter taught one another and were very devoted to each other. It is Su Tong as a daughter, and Su Wencheng as a father is the one who learns.

After an unknown amount of time, a fine layer of sweat appeared on Su Wencheng's forehead, and Su Tong raised his head, stretched his waist, and said with a smile: "Father, take a break, you've been studying for so long, but it's almost the same. "

After so much preparation, Su Tong's goal is about to be achieved, but before becoming an aide, Su Wencheng still has a lot of preparations to do.

After all, Su Tong doesn't want her father to be an unknown little staff member. If she just wants to be a staff member, then she can go directly to Kochi County, which admires her a lot. With a lot of preparation, I have to choose a county magistrate who is in Ding Youzhong.

Su Tong took a deep breath, recalling the news he heard from Mrs. Zhang yesterday, he raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Since she spent a few days to save Zhouzhi County's precious peony, she has become closer and closer to Zhouzhi County's family, especially Zhang and Hu. Although they are different in age, they have become handkerchief friends.

After becoming friends and getting closer, Su Tong showed her smart side in front of Mrs. Zhang without any trace. Occasionally, when women gossip together, Mrs. Zhang would complain about her troubles. , can give her some hints, so that Mrs. Zhang can think of a solution all at once.

After coming and going, Mrs. Zhang inevitably felt that Mrs. Su was really not a simple little lady, she was very smart, and she valued her even more. Su Tong felt that the time was right, so he naturally talked about his family and his father. When Mrs. Zhang chats with Zhou Zhixian, she will definitely talk about these things.

Even if he only said a few words, it would be considered as getting his father to register with him first, and the operation would be much easier.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Mrs. Zhang to propose that his family's officials were about to leave office and wanted Su Wencheng to serve as an aide to the magistrate of Zhou County. The conditions and courtesy were very good.

Su Tong asked Su Wencheng to meet Zhou Zhixian, and the matter was settled. In fact, Zhou Zhixian was quite satisfied with Su Wencheng, a young scholar.

In fact, he was Ding You for three years, and all the staff around him were sent away by him to find another way to make a living. Now he is short of manpower, and Su Tong fell in love with him, which is one of the reasons.

It is to be a staff member, who is close to the chief officer, and who is marginalized, but it is completely different.

Su Tong smiled, and started to tidy up the messy papers on the table: "As expected of Daddy, my daughter can't compare to you if you learn so fast."

Su Wencheng let out a breath, pressed the center of his eyebrows, and seemed to want to straighten out his head full of mathematical knowledge and various accounting methods, but said in his mouth: "Father is still far away, hey, Ah Tong is really like your mother, your mother She is an expert housekeeper, proficient in arithmetic, and doesn't use much calculation in bookkeeping. When she was still here, our family was poor, but everything was well organized, and I never had to worry about it."

He looked far away, as if thinking of that beautiful woman again.

"Others say that your mother is not good enough for me, but I alone know that I am such a poor scholar, if it weren't for a coincidence, how could I marry a bride like your mother, and I wouldn't even be able to get close."

Su Tong has long been used to his father missing his fairy mother-in-law whom he had never met, rolled his eyes, and took the initiative to make tea for Su Wencheng.

"Father, drink a cup of tea, then continue to calculate these accounts, and go and cook something for Erlang, he should be hungry too."

Liu's condition is now very good, it seems that there is a sign of forgetting the pain when the scar is healed, and he starts to call Erlang again, the family's food for Erlang and Su Tong is very thin, Erlang is growing When he was young, he was weak, and Su Tong loved him so much that he would cook for him every day to feed him.

Fortunately, Mrs. Liu still had some scruples about Su Tong, and Su Tong used her own money to buy food, and Su Wencheng returned home, so at most she said a few sour words, and did nothing else. .

Su Wencheng frowned, obviously aware of his step-wife's temper, sighed, but didn't say anything.

He is indeed very dissatisfied with Mrs. Liu in his heart, but he is a gentleman, and he was not sincere when he first married Mrs. Liu, just to marry a wife to help him with housework, take care of his children, so that he can study with peace of mind. After people marry and enter the door, they are always indifferent, never enthusiastic.

In the past, he was immersed in the grief of his ex-wife's early death, and his heart was closed. Mrs. Liu treats her as a wife, and I really feel sorry for her. He is inevitably guilty. Even though he knows that Mrs. Liu treats his children badly, and even makes them starve, he is annoyed, but he hates himself even more for not taking good care of his children. , and had no intention of going to Mrs. Liu to settle accounts.

Probably in Su Wencheng's mind, Mrs. Liu was always an outsider. Since she was an outsider, of course there was no reason to be nice to her children.

Su Tong has also vaguely seen Su Wencheng's thoughts these days, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Standing on his own standpoint, he was very happy. It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Now his father does not regard his stepmother as a relative. Siblings are naturally a good thing, but from Liu's standpoint, she has to say that her father is really a scumbag.

Sometimes she even thought that maybe Liu's being so mean and valuing her ex-husband's children so much had something to do with her father's attitude towards her besides being her own.

Although Liu is vulgar, she is not stupid. How could she fail to see that her husband was indifferent to her? Su Tong felt that if she changed herself, facing this situation, she would probably not like the one left by her husband's deceased wife. Children, although if it were Su Tong, he would never make a mistake on the surface, and even if he didn't like it, he would take good care of him.

Su Tong only occasionally has a little sympathy for Liu Shi. To put it bluntly, it is hypocritical. The more her father hates Liu Shi, the happier she will be. If Su Wencheng is willing to divorce Liu Shi, she will definitely be happy Eat and drink to celebrate.

I went to the kitchen and made some meat buns for Erlang. When I took them over, Erlang was practicing calligraphy seriously. Su Tong took a look and saw that the child's handwriting was very good, quite correct, six times better than usual. A year-old child is much stronger, and I can't help but iron it.

Seeing Erlang's progress now, maybe he will be able to write a good story about father and son Qi Dengko in the future.
