Chapter 1080 Secret Medicine
"How come the date is set so quickly? Has the matter been resolved?" Mo Yan pulled Liu Tinglan to sit on the bed and asked impatiently.
Compared to the haggard appearance a month ago, Liu Tinglan has now become the bright and cheerful girl she once was, with no trace of disappointment on her face.
"Solved!" Liu Tinglan's face showed a pleasant smile, and even her eyes were bright: "I followed the method you said and wrote a harsh letter to Brother Shen. He became anxious when he saw that I wanted to terminate the engagement. He had no interest in that woman in the first place, so he tried to persuade his parents to make a good marriage proposal to that woman. The date of the engagement ceremony was set, and he even sent out an invitation to my parents two days ago. Going to watch the ceremony!"
After hearing this, Mo Yan finally felt relieved. She held her friend's hand and said, "This is the best. That woman got a good marriage and I think she will be relieved."
Although it is despicable to rush to be a second wife, she is just a little girl who has not grown up. She has lost the protection of her family, and it is only natural for her to want to firmly grasp the thoughts of her uncle's family. Now she has found a good match in the Shen family, and her mother's family is her supporter. If she is satisfied with this, no one will treat her badly. If she is not satisfied... she must not be allowed to do whatever she wants.
Mo Yan is not going to remind her friend about this for the time being, lest she worry about it and get into a bad mood.
Liu Tinglan didn’t think as deeply as Mo Yan did. She just felt that everything would be fine once she solved her husband’s troublesome cousin. She hugged Mo Yan's arm happily and said gratefully: "Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."
Although her parents loved her, they could only put some pressure on the Shen family about that matter, and they couldn't put too much pressure on it. Otherwise, even if the Shen family was forced to send the woman away, they would still be dissatisfied with her. It’s hard to get a foothold.
Brother Shen didn't take that woman seriously, thinking that as long as she insisted on not marrying, she would be fine. At that time, she really didn't know what to do. If Yan Yan hadn't helped her with the idea, she would have had to keep these bitter feelings to herself. He swallowed his eyes, and then married into the Shen family and guarded against that woman every day. She felt uncomfortable just thinking about days like this, let alone experiencing them personally, which would really drive her crazy.
"You are talking nonsense again. You are my best friend, so I will naturally help you." Mo Yan scolded, and then said distressedly: "I received a wedding invitation a few days ago, and the wedding date is March 10th. Six, I don’t even know what to do.”
Liu Tinglan did not expect this to happen. She glared at Mo Yan and said anxiously: "Of course you are going to be my bridesmaid. You just said that I am your best friend."
"But I can't help but go to the other house!" Mo Yan wished he could divide himself into two halves, one half going to the Cui family and the other half to the Liu family. Although friends are more important in her heart, it would be inappropriate not to go to Cui's house. This is really embarrassing for her.
Liu Tinglan asked: "What is the relationship between that family and yours? Can you ask Uncle Mo to go there for you?"
Mo Yan shook her head: "You must have heard of the Cui family, right? My father also received another wedding invitation, and I must go and see it that day. Besides, your father and I have a close friendship. Can my dad not go? I’m afraid he’s also in trouble now!”
The Cui family is very sincere. Cui Ping'an personally sent her a wedding invitation, and Mr. Cui also sent a wedding invitation to her father in his name. The two were officials in the same court. Although their status was very different, her father was now the popular one in front of Chu Heng. People, it’s normal to send wedding invitations.
Liu Tinglan of the Cui family had naturally heard about it, and knew that it was really bad for her friend not to go. She felt bad for a moment, and said wilfully: "I still want you to be my bridesmaid, and I will have to live in a strange place from now on." For half my life, I have always been a little scared."
Mo Yan saw this and could understand his friend's mood. It is certainly a joy to be able to marry the person you like, but the thought of leaving a familiar home, leaving her doting parents, and starting over in a completely unfamiliar place, this joy is diluted a lot. More It's a kind of uncertainty and confusion.
Furthermore, after you get married and have your own family, you don’t have that much freedom. It’s almost impossible to meet and have fun at any time like before you got married.
Thinking of this, Mo Yanye also became depressed: "It really doesn't work out. I'll go to Cui's house that day to explain it, and then I'll go back to your house and accompany you to Shen's house. I think the Cui family won't mind if I come."
“Yeah!” Liu Tinglan nodded repeatedly, and her mood suddenly improved.
…
As a bridesmaid, Mo Yan had to stay with the bride all night before her wedding, so on March 19, she came to Liu's house early with two gifts. One was a congratulatory gift sent to the Cui family the next day, and the other was to add makeup to Liu Tinglan.
The gift given to the Cui family was a wooden box containing a pair of jade pendants. The jade used was given to her by Emperor Hui'an before. Since it is an imperial gift, it is naturally valuable. She picked out a piece of sapphire of good quality and asked the master in the silver shop to make a pair of Pisces jade pendants, which would be suitable for the newlyweds.
There was so much makeup for Liu Tinglan that it almost filled the carriage. In addition to several sets of headdresses such as gold, silver, and jade ornaments, there are also some rare fabrics that are not common on the market, and most of them are medicinal materials produced in space.
Ordinary families usually prepare furniture and rulers for marrying a daughter, and if the conditions are better, jewelry and silver. When a girl from a wealthy family marries, there are many things given in dowry. In addition to the above, there are also land, shops, houses, etc. Medicinal materials can also be used as one of them, but most of them are precious medicinal materials for health, such as ginseng.
It is normal for Mo Yan to use medicinal herbs to add makeup. In addition to a pair of old ginseng, there are also Ganoderma lucidum, donkey-hide gelatin, cordyceps sinensis, dendrobium, etc. among the medicinal herbs she prepared. Most of the carriage was filled with wooden boxes containing medicinal herbs, and each box was tied with a red strip of cloth for a festive look.
At this time, the Liu family was filled with music and lanterns and colorful lights were everywhere. I saw a bright red ribbon tied on the door, and bright red words "happy" posted on the door panel. Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu stood at the door, smiling to greet the guests who came to congratulate them. The yard of the Liu family was very lively with people coming and going.
Mo Yan didn’t want to be in the limelight at her friend’s wedding, so she dressed very low-key and didn’t know how to give gifts. When she came, she didn't attract anyone's attention, but when a lot of extra makeup was moved off the carriage, she still attracted a lot of attention. Fortunately, she had already arrived at Liu Tinglan's boudoir at that time, and no one knew who was so generous.
"Yan Yan, you are finally here." Liu Tinglan was talking to several sisters of her family. When she saw Mo Yan coming, she quickly stood up and came to greet her.
“You heartless person, I got up as soon as dawn, and I set off before the sun came out. You still think it’s too late for me to get in love with you!” Mo Yan glared at her friend and said pretending to be dissatisfied.
"No, no, no, how dare you dislike Lord Hejia?" Liu Tinglan hugged Mo Yan's arm with a smile, dragged her to the group of little sisters, and solemnly introduced: "Her name is Yan Yan, she is my favorite A good friend and my bridesmaid.”
Those girls have long known that their cousin (cousin) has a very good friend, who is also a county prince personally conferred by the Holy Emperor. However, they had never seen it with their own eyes. Now that they knew Mo Yan's identity, they all hurried forward to salute.
Mo Yan was still not used to others saluting her. These people were sisters of close friends, so she asked them to get up before they could bow down and salute.
The girls seemed to have lively personalities. After being called by Mo Yan, they started chatting around her. As they chatted, things gradually changed:
“It’s better to hear than to meet. I am so honored to be able to interact with the county prince. It is really a blessing from my previous life.”
"The Junjun is elegant and extraordinary. A wonderful person like the Junjun is rare to see."
“Who says it’s not the case? I feel ashamed when I see it.”
…”
Regardless of whether these words could be applied to Mo Yan, they were all thrown at Mo Yan. Mo Yan's teeth were sore when he heard them, and he couldn't stay any longer. He wished he could immediately drag his friend to a remote and uninhabited place. That's good.
Girls from the Liu family are both from scholarly families, so why is there such a big gap?
Liu Tinglan was so angry that she wanted to crawl into the crack. Seeing that his friend's brows showed a hint of uneasiness, he quickly stepped forward to rescue him and found an excuse to get several cousins (cousins) out of the house.
As soon as the people left, the room became quiet. Mo Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the cold tea and drank it in one gulp, which at least moistened his dry throat.
Liu Tinglan's face was still smeared, and she said sheepishly: "Yanyan, if they make you unhappy in any way, I will apologize to you on their behalf. Don't mind."
Mo Yan waved her hand: "They didn't say anything bad about me. What do I mind?"
Liu Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief, and then she climbed onto her friend's arm with a smile: "Their great-grandfather and my great-grandfather are brothers. In fact, our relationship is very estranged. We don't have much contact with each other except during holidays. This time They came here just because I was married. If you don't want to talk to them, it's okay to just show off your face."
She was too embarrassed to tell Mo Yan that these cousins (cousins) wanted to make friends through her after knowing that she was friends with Mo Yan, a professed county prince, and wanted to use this to improve their own status. But she couldn't do it, so she refused. Because of this, she was called a white-eyed wolf by several aunts.
Because she knew the temperaments of these cousins, she didn't dare to let them be her bridesmaids, for fear that she would say something she shouldn't have said when the Shen family got there, which would ruin the Liu family's reputation as a scholarly family.
In fact, although they are all girls from the Liu family, those families have not had a successful candidate for several generations, and the best one is Tong Sheng. Because Liu Tinglan's family had three successful candidates from her great-great-grandfather to her father, those families followed suit, and people only took a high look when they walked outside.
Mo Yan will naturally not know these reasons unless Liu Tinglan tells them. Seeing that it was quiet outside and no one would come in for the time being, she secretly took out a small, dusty porcelain bottle from her purse and stuffed it into her friend's hand with a slightly red cheek.
Because of the light, Liu Tinglan did not notice anything strange about her friend. She picked up the small gray bottle and asked curiously: "What is in here?"
Mo Yan patted her red face and tried to keep a serious look: "These are pills I specially developed for you. They are good for your health."
When Liu Tinglan heard this, she didn't think much. She opened the cork of the small gray bottle, poured out a small pill, and stuffed it into her mouth.
“Stop!” Mo Yan was startled and quickly reached out to stop Liu Tinglan: “Don’t take it, this medicine is not for taking.”
Liu Tinglan was also frightened. She quickly spat out the medicine she had stuffed into her mouth into her palm, spitted a few mouthfuls of saliva, and asked nervously: "Won't I be poisoned to death?"
Hearing this, Mo Yan burst out laughing: "It's not as exaggerated as you said. Although this medicine is not for consumption, it will not be harmful to the body if eaten. Don't worry."
Liu Tinglan relaxed after hearing this, and became even more curious about the little finger-sized pill in her heart: "Since it's not for eating, it's for use. How to use it?"
Meeting the eyes of his friend who was curious about the baby, Mo Yan coughed dryly, his eyes a little wandering: "This pill...this pill is used for that place."
“Where is that place? You can tell me clearly!” Liu Tinglan became even more confused and couldn’t help but push Mo Yan.
Mo Yan's face turned red at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. She was really embarrassed to tell her the route of the pill directly, so she whispered it into her friend's ear.
After listening to this, Liu Tinglan’s face instantly turned red and she was about to bleed. There was a snap sound, and the small gray bottle in her hand fell to the ground. Fortunately, the mouth of the bottle was that narrow, and only two gray pills rolled out, which were scattered at the feet of the two people.
Mo Yan silently picked up the small gray bottle, picked up the pills that fell on the ground and stuffed them in. Then she silently took out another small gray bottle from her purse and stuffed it into her friend's hand.
This pill looks inconspicuous, but it is of great benefit to the woman. She developed it based on the ancient prescription found in the pharmacopoeia collected by her master at home. It not only protects a woman's private parts and makes the relationship between husband and wife more harmonious, but also prevents many diseases. It is also very beneficial to conceiving children. No woman can refuse it.
Liu Tinglan looked at her friend with dull eyes and murmured, "How many of these things have you made?"
Mo Yan blinked and said without blushing, "You can have as many as you want. There are twelve pills in this bottle, which is enough for you for a year. When you are finished, come and get it from me."
This medicine is good, but it is not easy to store. It will have no effect after one year. Mo Yan made hundreds of them at one time and stored them all in the space. They were nourished by spiritual energy and the effect would only get better and better.
Liu Tinglan’s lips twitched slightly, but she did not push the “irregular” small gray bottle back into her friend’s hand. She got up and found a small wooden box, put the small gray bottle in it, and put it in a dowry box with the word "happy" on it. This dowry box was also one of the dowries to be brought to the Shen family.
After locking the dowry box and making sure that no one would discover the contents, Liu Tinglan sat in front of Mo Yan again and warned: "Don't give this to others casually, it's not good for you."
An unmarried girl actually developed such a shameful pill. Although many women will like it, she will inevitably be criticized.
"Well, I know, no one knows the existence of this thing except you and me." Mo Yan has never thought about making money from this thing, and has no intention of spreading it to others.
Liu Tinglan held her friend's hand with a moved expression, not knowing how to thank her. This kind of pill was so tempting to her that she would not throw it away even if it was very embarrassing. It was hard for her good sister who thought about her wholeheartedly to actually make such a thing with her own hands. Not to mention the friendship involved, the trust alone was enough for her to remember for a lifetime.
…
Tomorrow is the day when Liu Tinglan gets married. Originally, the dowry was supposed to be sent to the Shen family today. However, the two families are more than a hundred miles away from each other, making this trip very inconvenient. The dowry will go with Liu Tinglan tomorrow.
Mo Yan will also go there tomorrow. After having a wedding banquet at the Shen family, he will come back with the bridegroom.
In the evening, Mo Yan stayed in the room to have dinner with Liu Tinglan. After dinner, the highlight of the happy event came - getting married in tears.
There is a strict etiquette for "crying to get married". You must not cry randomly and you must be able to cry. Anyone who cannot cry will be laughed at or even discriminated against by others. Usually there are "crying parents", "crying brothers and sisters", "crying sisters", "crying uncles", "crying companions", "crying matchmakers", "crying combing hair" ", "crying for ancestors", "crying on the sedan chair"... everyone who came to visit the bride always cried.
"Crying to get married" has a long history. It expresses the newlyweds' gratitude to their parents and elders for their upbringing, the care of their brothers, sisters-in-law, and siblings. It also expresses the sadness of the happy life of girlhood about to pass away and the sadness before the new life comes. They are confused and uneasy, and some express their dissatisfaction with the marriage, their lifelong hatred of the matchmaker, and many other emotions.
Mo Yan always thought that "crying to get married" was just a ritual, but when she saw Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu holding Liu Tinglan and crying uncontrollably, tears flowed down unconsciously.
"Mom, dad, okay if I don't get married? I won't get married. I really don't want to get married. How about I just stay at home with you all my life?" Liu Tinglan cried sadly in her parents' arms. She could She had too little time to spend with her parents, she couldn't bear to part with it, she couldn't bear to let it go!
In the eyes of others, this cry was just for the occasion. No one knew that this girl who once wanted to marry the man she longed for had really come up with the idea of not marrying.
When it was Mo Yan, the bridesmaid's turn, to cry at the wedding, she and Liu Tinglan, whose eyes were swollen from crying, looked at each other and smiled, unable to cry at all. But as they smiled and laughed, they shed tears one after another. In the end, the two of them hugged each other and cried, but not a word was uttered.
This cry-marriage was considered a huge failure, but because of Mo Yan’s identity, no one dared to laugh at her, and they had to stay by her side to persuade her not to be sad.
This "crying to get married" was not completed until the end of the afternoon, because they had to get up early tomorrow. After everyone in the room left, Mo Yan and Liu Tinglan washed their faces, wiped their hands and feet briefly and went to bed.
I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep, but the crying session earlier vented all the uneasiness in my heart, and the two of them fell asleep as soon as they touched the pillow.
After sleeping for two hours, the two of them were woken up.
After cleaning her face, Mo Yan helped Liu Tinglan put on the red wedding dress, and then Mrs. Quanfu, invited by the Liu family, began to comb Liu Tinglan's hair, singing a hair-combing song while combing it. Mrs. Liu watched from the side and wet the handkerchief in her hand again.
After combing her hair, the makeup lady began to put makeup on Liu Tinglan. Kneading the face, applying powder, applying rouge, drawing eyebrows... After two moments, the makeup is done.
The makeup artist’s makeup skills are good. The makeup she painted highlights the advantages of Liu Tinglan’s facial features and covers up the slight shortcomings, making people more clear and attractive.
After the makeup was done, everyone in the room left, leaving only Mo Yan and Liu Tinglan, who was looking happy.
Liu Tinglan sat upright on the bed, with little joy on her face. Any girl who cares about her parents will not be too happy on her wedding day.
Mo Yan sat next to Liu Tinglan and wanted to make her happy. She pretended to be a libertine and approached her with a smile, ready to touch her face: "Such a beautiful bride, my heart was pounding when I saw it, so I just followed you and I will keep it for you." I'll let you eat and drink well and pamper you every day."
Liu Tinglan made a sound and was amused. She raised her hand and slapped the outstretched hand. She raised her eyebrows and shouted: "You are a carefree and romantic lothario. Aren't you afraid that the tigress at home will make you kneel on the washboard?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Yan subconsciously replaced the tigress as her fiancé, who had a cold face every day, and instantly fell into laughter on the bed.
Liu Tinglan didn't know why. Seeing her friend smiling awkwardly, she started laughing too, and she felt really better.
Seeing Chenshi, the Shen family would come to welcome the bride at the end of the hour. Mo Yan said hello to Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu, and hurried to Cui's house with the gift for Cui Pingan.
The Liu family and the Cui family both sent wedding invitations to the Mo family's father and daughter. Originally, the two could not leave. After the father and daughter discussed it, Mo Yan went to the Liu family to be the bridesmaid, and then went to the Cui family to send gifts and say the wedding before returning to the Liu family. , Mo Qingze stayed at the Cui family, gave gifts and congratulations to the Liu family, and then returned to the Cui family. Mo Qingze was already at the Cui family.
Arrived at the Cui family, Mo Yan was led by the servants of the Cui family to Mrs. Cui. After greeting each other and explaining the matter, Mrs. Cui very considerately asked Mo Yan to leave without delaying the auspicious time.
Princess Fuyun, on the other hand, stabbed a few words in a neutral tone. Mo Yan, concerned about her status as a princess, just smiled and said nothing.
When Mo Yan came out of the house, he met his father who came to greet Mrs. Cui. Seeing that there was no one around him, Mo Yan quickly asked: "Dad, are you here alone?"
Mo Qingze smiled and shook his head: "Zhen'er and Zhao'er have already paid their respects to Mrs. Cui, and were taken away by the Cui family's boys."
Mo Yan nodded and said hurriedly: "Then my daughter won't wait for you. Time is running out."
Mo Qingze waved his hand and urged: "Go quickly, dad will be here soon."
Mo Yan said "hmm" and left under the guidance of the maid. Mo Qingze withdrew his gaze and was about to enter the house when he saw a figure hurriedly approaching from the corner of his eye. He took a closer look and found that it was an acquaintance.
Cui Wanqing also saw Mo Qingze standing opposite at a glance, and stopped unconsciously, forgetting to avoid suspicion.
Aware of the strange looks from the maids around him, Mo Qingze became alert and nodded slightly at Cui Wanqing distantly, then stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.
Cui Wanqing's expression darkened, she gave Mo Qingze a blessing and walked in first.
Here, Mo Yan hurried back to the Liu family, and happened to encounter the Shen family's welcoming team that was blocked outside the gate.
The Liu family only has one child, Liu Tinglan, and those who blocked the wedding were all young people from the Liu family's family and Mrs. Liu's natal family. This group of people would also send the bride off later.
There are also several young people on the groom's side, some of whom are good at literature and some with martial arts skills. No matter whether the Liu family fights with literature or martial arts, they can handle it and win a lot of applause.
Mo Yan watched for a while and saw that the Liu family could no longer defend the house, so she hurriedly walked in through the side door.
In the boudoir, Liu Tinglan was sitting on the bed with her hijab still on. The sisters from her family were accompanying her, and their words were joking, but also slightly mixed with a bit of sourness.
Likewise, Shen Ji's family was wealthy and he had a good reputation, and he was handsome and prosperous. Compared with his peers, there was nothing bad about him. No wonder these people were envious and jealous.
Liu Tinglan's mind was not on this and she just pretended not to hear their reckless words.
Seeing Mo Yan walk in, these people restrained themselves a little and started to flatter Mo Yan. They also said that their cousin (Liu Tinglan) had married away from the capital, and they were still here, so they would move around more in the future.
Mo Yan muttered a few words and sat next to Liu Tinglan. Seeing her hands trembling slightly, he knew she was nervous, so he comforted her with a warm voice: "I'm with you, don't be afraid."
Liu Tinglan nodded and held her friend's hand tightly. There was both nervousness and hope for a better life in the future.
At this time, Shen Ji successfully passed the tests of more than a dozen cousins-in-law and cousins-in-law, and after throwing out baskets of wedding money, he finally broke into Liu Tinglan's boudoir and knocked on the door.
The auspicious time was coming, and Mo Yan had no intention of embarrassing Shen Ji, so he asked him to compose a poem urging him to make up, stuffed a few purses in, and then let the person in.
The young people who came with Shen Ji started to coax them into the room. Mo Yan closed the door with a bang and stood at the door looking at them without saying a word.
“Oh, just let Yun Jin go in. Let’s not go in and join in the fun.” The person who originally yelled the loudest quickly stopped the others from jumping up and smiled fawningly at Mo Yan.
When the others saw this, they immediately did not dare to make any mistakes and stood at the door waiting obediently.
Before coming, this group of people had been carefully warned by Shen Ji, making it clear that the identity of the bridesmaid was not simple, and asked them to wink and not to make too much noise. Now even if they were given a hundred courages, they would not dare to rush into the bride's boudoir and fool around.
Seeing that they were quite honest, Mo Yan nodded with satisfaction. Taking advantage of this gap, she quietly asked them about some things about the Shen family, especially the cousin of the Shen family.
Those people were not fools, but they only thought that Mo Yan had a close relationship with the bride as sisters. They were worried that the bride would get a black eye when she arrived at her husband's house, so they rushed to tell Mo Yan some things about the Shen family, focusing on the temperament of the two elders. Of course, they all said good things, such as the two elders were generous and kind, loved the younger generation, and reassured her, etc.
As for the cousin of the Shen family, I just mentioned a few words casually. Coincidentally, the man she was going to marry was among this group of people. When those people talked about the Shen family's cousin, they did not forget to tease this companion.
Mo Yan secretly observed Shen Ji's prospective cousin-in-law and saw that although he was not as good looking as Shen Ji, he had a good temperament and was a humble young man. Judging from his well-behaved manner and well-dressed appearance, it is clear that his family background is not bad. If he can be on good terms with Shen Ji, his conduct will not be much worse.
Let alone the support of her mother's family, even if she did, it would be impossible to find such an outstanding husband and in-laws. The cousin of the Shen family should be willing to accept it, so Mo Yan felt more relieved. However, the Shen family still needs to see with their own eyes what that cousin thinks.
The door was opened, and Shen Ji walked out first. He was holding a big red flower in his left hand and Liu Tinglan in his right hand, with a happy smile on his face.
The behavior of the two people was obviously inappropriate, but it seemed that the affection between them could turn into reality. Even the matchmaker didn't say anything, let alone the others.
Surrounded by the crowd, the newlyweds slowly rushed toward the main hall to say their final farewells to the bride's parents. Along the way, Shen Ji held Liu Tinglan's hand tightly and told her to be careful about the steps from time to time. This carefulness touched many young girls and young wives, who secretly lamented that Liu Tinglan had met her beloved.
When crossing the threshold, Liu Tinglan accidentally stumbled a little. Shen Ji, who was always paying attention to her, reacted very quickly. He supported her and nervously asked her if she had sprained her foot. Seeing that Liu Tinglan shook her head and could walk, she felt relieved.
This scene was seen by Father Liu and Mother Liu, and they finally felt a little comforted. After Shen Ji and Liu Tinglan both knelt on the ground to say goodbye to their two elders, Liu's mother held her daughter's hand and shed tears again, and warned her carefully for a long time.
Mo Yan watched and felt that she had become a good friend. She imagined that on the day of her wedding, her father would be like Liu's father and Liu's mother. While feeling uncomfortable, he taught her how to be a daughter-in-law and a wife.
Thinking about this, I feel sad...
There is a small problem with the chapter posted yesterday, which is that the wedding day is March 20th. It has been revised. This chapter uses 20th, which does not affect reading.
(End of this chapter)
