[Sense and Sensibility] Worth having

"this is me?"

"I'll teach you how to draw after you've practiced your handwriting." Kristo said with a straight face.You still have to be strict when teaching children, otherwise, no matter how superior your skills are, those bear children will not study carefully.

In fact, this is just a simple image design, something that can be learned by playing a few times. The real art of painting lies in the changes in light and shade, the rendering of colors and the structure of lines. Christo is only at the level of coaxing children.

She asked Marguerite to take a book of sonnets, and then slowly explained some of the hidden meanings in each one.She didn't know much about these things at first.Because 300 years later, Shakespeare's ancient English is an area that she will never touch, so her current poetic accomplishments are all learned through hard work in this life.

It is enough to understand the meaning and not use it wrongly when writing a letter.In Christo's vision, she would not write any lyrical articles for others, but this did not affect her to use the highest standard to spur her sister.My younger sister's self-cultivation must start now.In case a girl fell in love at first sight, Christo felt that her life would be extremely gloomy.

The two sisters huddled together by the candlelight, and the warm candlelight coated their faces with a layer of warm soft light. Occasionally, Christo would draw out Marianne's mistakes, and then she continued to read the following before the candlelight Newspapers from Sir John.As a person who makes money from this, it is also a very unprofessional thing to be completely divorced from the public.

"Hey! Christophe, you even read newspapers!" Margaret wrote, her hands aching.When writing a letter, the dip pen can really add points to the handwriting and make the font look more neat. This has something to do with the angle of the dip pen design.Marguerite didn't bring any pens to the country, she used the French pens that Christophe used to.

"I read newspapers, what's so strange about it. My curious sister, I used to spend every day in the study of the manor when I was a child. I must have read all the books you have read. And you—now give me a good practice." Words. You can only rest at eight o'clock!"

Margaret poked her mouth, and poked the bamboo paper vigorously with the pen in her hand. "Slap." A small notch was knocked off the glass tip of the dip pen.A few drops of participating ink quickly stain the paper.

"Marguerite!" This pen is the classic style* that best matches the black pearl. She had taken a fancy to it in her last life, and in this life, she has found a lot of things related to Paris to order!Her desire to collect all kinds of stationery is far more than that of precious jewelry, which is also a kind of alternative collection addiction.

Seeing her younger sister looking at her with regret for doing something wrong, Chris rubbed her forehead.She thinks it is not difficult to learn and master this font, and she remembers that Marian did not spend much time learning it!

She knocked on Margaret's head discouragedly, and then looked at the time. The pendulum clock at home showed that it was only ten minutes before eight o'clock.Kristo put away the glass dip pen, then decided it was impossible to fix. "Forget it, there are still ten minutes left. You go and get the knitting things. Let me teach you a relatively basic weaving technique. Anyway, you will practice calligraphy every day in the future, so you can spend a little less time today."

She pulled out a threatening smile, indicating that the days to come are still very long.Poor Margaret had already understood her sister's hidden stern face, but when she heard something related to weaving, she was very diligent to get those tools.

Margaret's manual skills are not weak.Christo discovered it early on. She has a strong sense of direction and has a special sensitivity to knowledge about geography and astronomy. Although she is relatively weak in literature-related things, her manual advantages can also make up for those shortcomings. .

She has another pair of dexterous hands, which Christo has to admit.A small basic frame was quickly formed under Margaret's random fiddling, and the design was also novel, which can be called drawing inferences about other cases from one instance.

"Christopher, Margaret, it's very late, are you going back to bed?" They unknowingly got it to nine o'clock in the evening, so that Eleanor had to remind the two devoted sisters.

"Okay. Eleanor. Weaving is really a fun thing. Look at what I did." Margaret packed up the simple tools without further ado, and then held up the basket that she had just seen in its prototype to Eleanor. Lino looked.

Christo snickered at the side. You must know that Eleanor's talent lies in painting, and her handicrafts are just quite satisfactory.

"I saw you smiling, Chris, go to bed early, what a worried sister. Willoughby will come to visit tomorrow, so get up earlier." Eleanor's words made Chris charge more A smile on his lips.She was less happy at the thought of Willoughby to come.

She took Margaret carefully up the stairs.The stairs at home are a bit narrow and look like they have been in disrepair. Be careful not to fall when walking on them, and try to avoid stepping on places that make 'creaking' sounds.

Have a good night's sleep.Christo and Margaret are not girls who like to get up early, if there is no disturbance from the sound, it is not impossible for them to sleep until noon.But today, because Willoughby is coming to visit, the family got active early.

Early in the morning, the sound of people running back and forth downstairs could be heard.Marianne must not get out of bed for a while, the most noisy Margaret and herself are still sleeping in the same bed, and Eleanor is always careful when walking, so the only possibility is Mrs. Dashwood, her great mother I started preparing for the guests myself.

What a worry!Christo struggled under the covers for a while, and finally made up her mind to get up.After all, Mr. Willoughby is still a helpful gentleman. He rescued Marianne in distress, which is worthy of gratitude.And the one who likes Willoughby is Marianne. This gentleman has not made any statement, and he really can't blame him.

Christo got up from the bed, and the early morning air was chilly.She shuddered and woke up completely. She found a thicker skirt and added a small cape to herself.It looked pretty good, she chose a cool color to make it more prominent Marianne, she didn't want to cause any trouble for herself.

"Margaret, get up!" Christo woke up Margaret viciously before going to wash up. Although the little girl was sleeping deeply, she didn't dare to wake up The lazy bed will delay the reception at home.In this regard, the relevant etiquette of the Dashwood family is still acceptable.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the family started to get ready one after another.Generally, the visiting people will arrive at ten o'clock, but before that, they have to have breakfast, clean up, and make some related preparations. Although it is grand, it makes sense.

Christophe played a few pieces of music on the piano under the window on a rare occasion, and the waiting time was rather difficult, and it was especially awkward for her to be in the same room with Marianne now.

She simply played the pieces on the piano stand, neither these pieces nor the piano was satisfactory to her.Those famous pianists seem to be famous for the next fifty to one hundred years, and the quality of the piano is really not fine enough, and it is not much more comfortable to press than the keyboard. Maybe she should have learned the violin in the first place!

In the early morning, the birds chirping in the trees, taking a deep breath, inhaling the fresh air of the countryside, looking out of the window next to the piano, seeing the green mountains and green waters in the distance, winding mountain roads, and the sun is slightly drunk, it is still very comfortable.

Not long after, when Christo heard the sound of horseshoes, her piano sound stopped abruptly.When Willoughby arrived, it was time for her to reduce her presence as much as possible.Her instincts made her dislike this Mr. Willoughby, and her instincts were more accurate so far.

She slowly retreated to the corner, choosing the place farthest from the sofa. Christo herself was a little surprised. She seemed to have decided that Marianne and Willoughby would fall in love in the end.At least that's what Willoughby's look meant when he sent Marianne back.

But it was Colonel Brandon who came in along the path by the door.Margaret ran out excitedly when she heard the sound of horseshoes. She saw that it was Brandon at the door, and then ran back to deliver the news in a bit of disappointment.Christo was a little surprised. She considered Colonel Brandon's intentions, and then took a few steps forward.Standing in a slightly conspicuous place.

Her movements are so obvious that Eleanor and Marianne can see them all.This confirmed the evaluation that she was greedy for vanity and somewhat powerful.Christo no longer cared about their views. If they knew that her target was Colonel Brandon, they would definitely show even more exaggerated expressions.

The Colonel knocked at the open, white wooden door, and Mrs. Dashwood said, "Come in." The Colonel and the girls in the room exchanged salutes, and Marianne remained motionless on the sofa.

Colonel Brandon already learned the news of Marianne's injury from Christo yesterday.That's why his sudden visit today made Christo a little confused about his thoughts.Is it Marianne or herself? Obviously, this issue still needs further observation. She wants to put herself in a relatively favorable position instead of being trapped in it.

Flowers, walking sticks, black hats, and black safari suits, Colonel Brandon took care of them very vigorously.He passed the words to Marianne who was lying on the sofa, and the latter thanked him reservedly.

There was a self-deprecating smile on the corner of Christo's mouth, which was fleeting.She stepped back inconspicuously, everyone's attention was on Marianne and Colonel Brandon, her movements were not very conspicuous.

Marianne handed the flowers to Eleanor who was sitting on the sofa very casually. It was embarrassing, so the eldest sister had to take the flowers and went to the room to find a more beautiful vase to visit.She put the vase on the small coffee table not far from Marianne's sofa so that Marianne could enjoy the flowers.

Christo was more inclined that this was a veiled warning from the eldest sister, and perhaps Eleanor also felt that Marianne's behavior was a bit disrespectful.It's a pity that Eleanor didn't get a response from Marianne, and even Marianne wasn't going to talk about flowers anymore. Poor Eleanor could only keep arranging the flowers in embarrassing positions, and then slowly Withdraw your hand.

This made Christo feel a little funny, and what she was dissatisfied with was that Colonel Brandon hadn't paid her the slightest bit of attention from the beginning to now—as if yesterday's long conversation was all about her alone willing.If this is the case, she will definitely not cause trouble for herself. The most suitable one at present may not be the most suitable one in the future.

Before the colonel could sit down and say something, there was a faint sound of horseshoes outside.This time it was Willoughby without any suspense.Margaret excitedly ran to the door to have a look, and then confirmed everyone's guess.

The author has something to say: * AD 1656: A Dutch astronomer invented the pendulum clock.In addition, pocket watches already existed in the eighteenth century.

* Black Pearl: In 1700, the founder of the brand launched a black ink in the Paris store, named Black Pearl (Peter des Encress).

pps: Taobao seems to sell it, but the price is super expensive!I really want to buy one... my friend said it is super easy to use. ~~~~(>_<)~~~~
