Chapter 130 Dentures
"Are you too hasty? Even if you want to get your eldest sister married, you don't have to be so hasty, right?"

Yan Lihua did not expect that her husband would marry her eldest sister to Ouyang so soon.

As a sister-in-law, she certainly hopes that her sisters-in-law will start families and get married as soon as possible, and that she and her husband will complete their tasks as soon as possible.

After all, although the eldest sister-in-law and Ouyang Yi did not have a marriage certificate, their family members acquiesced.

I just don't know why, but Yan Lihua's mood seems to have changed since her eldest sister was sent back by the officer from the artillery school.

"Ouyang also has this idea. He is three years older than An Xin, so the marriage will happen sooner or later. I was thinking..."

"Even if the marriage is a sure thing, we can't rush it. After all, it's a big event. My parents are not here. You and I, brothers and sisters, can deal with it casually. What will outsiders say? Since Ouyang is going to be transferred back, why don't we get married after he is transferred back? , when they have a place to live, it will be convenient for them.

Otherwise, if Ouyang suddenly comes back during the Chinese New Year and has no place to live, where would be the right place to hold the wedding?
Although Ouyang's uncle is here, there are only a few rooms in his house, and they are all crowded. Not to mention it is inconvenient to arrange a wedding for them. His uncle is fine, but his aunt... won't he still feel wronged by his eldest sister? "

Yan Lihua Barbara spoke out about the problems she faced.

This statement made An Taizhen hesitate.

Ouyang does not have a place to live in Qingcheng yet, and he is not a live-in son-in-law, so naturally he cannot get married at his own home.

He thought simply before. With their current status, setting a table and treating two families to a meal would be enough. Nowadays, many people keep their marriages simple.

Ouyang's family is not here, just invite Ouyang's uncle and his family to come over.

But he forgot about the problem of Ouyang not having a place to live. After all, his uncle was an uncle and he had no obligations. He would indeed have wronged his eldest sister An Xin.

Since the two still live in separate places after getting married, and the eldest sister still lives at home, it won't be too late for Ouyang to be transferred back.

"Well, that's what you said. I'll call Ouyang another day to talk about the situation. It won't be too late to wait for him to come back."

An Tai nodded.

Yan Lihua also nodded with satisfaction.

……

Jiang Defu returned to the artillery school, rested for a few more days, and began to apply for classes.

Anyway, it's just a foot injury, and I won't miss the lecture.

Just so as not to show that he was recovering too quickly, he wore a pair of sandals and had to put a thin bandage on his feet, which really made him feel a little uncomfortable.

As expected, the class was divided into two classes. They were not in the same class as Wang Zhenbiao, which avoided embarrassment and conflicts.

It's just that Jiang Defu hasn't seen Wang Zhenbiao for several days in class.

"He was discharged from the hospital earlier than you. They were all skin injuries. At most, there were scars on his face. He just didn't go to class. He lost his front teeth and became a chip. He was afraid of being embarrassed and didn't dare to come to class. I went to the next class. I saw him several times, but he didn’t go to class, but I heard that the hospital applied for him to have dentures, but the hospital our team went to couldn’t do it. The application was from the Magic City, and he probably has to have dentures installed before he dares to come out to see people!”

Huang Dawei said happily.

"Dentures?"

Jiang Defu didn't react.

"It means people have no teeth. Those doctors make some similar ones based on your original teeth and put them on the inside. This thing is very precious. I have an uncle who went abroad many years ago. His teeth are broken, so foreigners make them. Yes, we don’t have it here, it’s expensive!”

Huang Dawei described.

"Aren't those dentures?"

Jiang Defu saw that his description was troublesome and said directly.

"Defu, you summarized it well! It's so damn wonderful. It's so apt to call it dentures. They're actually fake! They all call them dentures. It's so damn funny to put on dentures and dentures." Got it!"

Huang Dawei laughed heartily.

Even though it was after class time, they still caused a lot of people to look in their direction.

Only then did Jiang Defu remember that dentures were a scarce technology nowadays. Except for the fact that foreigners came here and the upper class came into contact with dentures, this technology had not been introduced at all.

Dentures are called dentures, which is probably a more elegant name given by the so-called upper class.

Huang Dawei's uncle even had dentures. This boy's background must not be simple.Jiang Defu had long felt that Huang Dawei was going his own way in the artillery school, a place where there were many eminent monks. His identity and background must be extraordinary, but no one has revealed his background yet.

"Defu, I feel like you know a lot, even dentures. I heard that some of these dentures are obtained from animals, donkeys and pigs. Is it true? What if Wang Zhenbiao gets donkey teeth or dog teeth and puts them in his mouth? Li...hahaha...I can't do it anymore, I'm laughing so hard!"

The more Huang Dawei talked, the happier he became, laughing so much that he almost couldn't breathe.

"Defu, do you really mean what you said?"

Huang Dawei asked eagerly.

"Didn't your uncle use it? Why didn't you ask?"

Jiang Defu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"I don't dare to ask. My uncle is like a living king of hell. If I ask, my legs will be broken. Can you tell me whether those dentures are animal teeth?"

Huang Dawei's curiosity is really overwhelming.

Jiang Defu was really helpless.

He actually knows something about dentures.

In his previous life, he had a buddy who studied dentistry. After graduation, he didn't want to go to the hospital and suffer the "abuse" of the old dentists. He had had enough during his internship, so he wanted to open a dental clinic of his own.

It's just that this buddy's native family has average financial conditions. Going to medical school is already a big expense. His family has already tried their best, and he is even more strapped for money, so he wants to ask Jiang Defu for help.

Jiang Defu did have spare money in his hands. Borrowing money from friends was a very sensitive matter, so he simply offered to invest and become a shareholder. Later, he really made a lot of money.

Although he was not involved in the business, he still had a certain understanding of dentures because of this incident.

Early dentures were indeed obtained from the mouths of animals, mainly donkeys and horses. However, these teeth were too large and smelled too bad, so they were later abandoned and slightly higher-end teeth from hippopotamus, seals, and elephants were chosen.

As for the dental trays, they are all made of gold, with exclusive engravings on them. They are shiny and golden, and there are logos on them. It is definitely blinding, and people who don’t have a lot of money really don’t dare to use them!

But this is indeed too conspicuous, that is, some nouveau riche people who like to be conspicuous will use this kind of teeth.

Some Western aristocrats consider themselves noble, so naturally they look down on those shiny dentures. What they pursue is naturally the original teeth, that is, real teeth.

At that time, Europe and the United States were still in the period of slavery. Some nobles were superior. For them, slaves were often equal to animals. When the nobles lacked teeth, they naturally turned their attention to the teeth of young slaves.

One of the great leaders of the Ugly Country had his teeth broken at a young age, and his speech was slurred without his teeth. This man later became a big leader. Of course, for the sake of his image, he specially obtained real teeth from slaves!

Because of the implication, some nobles directly pulled the teeth out of the slaves' mouths when they corrected them. This is called cruelty!
Later, after slavery was abolished, real teeth were traded underground, but the supply simply exceeded demand.

Some people even set their sights on the dead.

It is normal for some people to suddenly lose their teeth after their death.Tooth hunting became a despicable industry and was soon born.

In order to protect their deceased relatives, it became a custom at that time for some people to live near the cemetery and guard the tomb for a period of time after the person was buried.

But the teeth of people who have been buried in the cemetery always sound a bit unlucky after all.

In addition, there are some particular people who worry that their teeth will not be very healthy if they use the teeth of rotting corpses. Exhuming corpses to find teeth was popular for a while, and then gradually faded away.

As the war broke out, the idea that those who died in battle had healthier teeth quickly became popular.

In order to make huge profits, some tooth hunters follow the dying people like vultures, following the marching troops. Whenever the battle is about to end, they will rush up with barrels and pliers.

During the Peninsular War, Peninsula teeth were also popular for many years.

However, despite huge profits, this thing is too risky, and there are still very few that can be obtained. Although everyone in Europe says that the dentures they make are Peninsula battlefield teeth, in fact many of them are just false propaganda. There are only one tenth of the real Peninsula teeth. That’s pretty good!

"What? Do you think the teeth used by Wang Zhenbiao will be real teeth?"

Huang Dawei and others listened with interest and even became fascinated by Jiang Defu's explanation of the history of teeth.

Speaking of using real teeth, Huang Dawei suddenly thought that if Wang Zhenbiao wanted to replace his dentures, would he use real teeth?
This sounds more sensational than using donkey teeth or horse teeth!
