[Sense and Sensibility] Worth having
Chapter 16
Except for Willoughby, everyone else's kites were made in Barton Manor, and Christo had secretly let them fly before. She only promoted it after confirming that the kite could ascend to the sky.As for their respective painting competitions, it was completely unexpected. Now it seems that everyone is very satisfied with their painting skills.
Anyone who has ever flown a kite knows that to fly a kite into the sky, you must first run, and then pull the kite at the right time.When the wind is strong, there is no need to run too much.Now that it was time to fly the kite, everyone dispersed.The elders, Mrs. Jennings, Mrs. Dashwood, Sir John and his wife sat down on the cushions under the tree, not wanting to disturb the young people's affections.
Marianne and Willoughby ran away, a combination that was recognized by all.The remaining Colonel Brandon, Eleanor, Christophe, and Margaret looked at each other.Colonel Brandon said to Christophe, "May I invite you to join me?"
Kristo nodded and said, "It's my honor."
Eleanor was a little surprised by this situation. She and Edward were a couple, and everyone in the family knew about it.So at this time, it should be more natural for her and the colonel to form a team.Even because of the similarity between Christo and Marian, she should avoid it for a while.Chris has always been more thorough in seeing things more, and would not make such a low-level mistake.So what does Christo mean to Colonel Brandon?
This conjecture made Eleanor a little worried. Although she really wanted to communicate with Chris in private, she obviously didn't have such an opportunity now.Christo had told Margaret a long time ago that she was to partner with Eleanor. At this time, the little girl had already dutifully hooked Eleanor's arm.
"We can go there. It's the east wind now." The colonel observed for a while, and then pointed to the end farther away from Willow. If the kites are all gathered together, it will be easy to get entangled.
Christo walked over with the colonel in a good manner.They walked together quite harmoniously.
Elinor was not sure what Christo was thinking, and she couldn't help feeling a little worried when she watched them leave.Margaret said something thoughtfully beside her. "You mean, Christo told you before that she would be with the Colonel!"
"Actually, the colonel is pretty good, too. Besides, it's just flying a kite." Margaret pointed in another direction, and said enthusiastically, "What are you thinking about so much? Don't you see that Marianne is also with Willoughby?" , let's have fun with us, look how it looks there, Eleanor, let's go fly the kite quickly." She tried her best to pull Eleanor to go in another direction.
She looked like she was bought.Eleanor was made curious and funny by the little girl, but since Christo had arranged for it early in the morning, there was no need for her to stop it forcibly, as long as she knew what she wanted.
"Why did Christo suddenly think of flying a kite?"
"Before Margaret always said that she wanted to go to the East. As she talked, I thought of the paper kites in the East. The paper kites continued to develop, and finally crossed the ocean, and there were kites. Before, didn't there An American did a kite experiment and invented a tool called the lightning rod."
"Humans are always conquering nature and making some discoveries."
The two of them stood on a relatively flat grassland, where the picnic tree could be seen in the distance, but Marian, who was facing the opposite direction, could no longer be seen. "It's here, it's all windy!"
Kristo brushed back the blond hair that blocked her vision, and she straightened the kite shaft.A gust of wind blew by, she released a section of thread, and then ran in the opposite direction.She had succeeded when she tried it before, and there was no surprise this time.She quickly let the kite float in the air, and as she stretched the string in her hand, the kite floated into the air naturally.
Today's sunshine is not too dazzling, and the breeze blows by, which is not interesting.Christo only ran a dozen steps. She felt it, and then she diverted her attention to the colonel who was standing there. The colonel was a little far away, so she had to wave her hand in a big way: "Brandon Colonel, don't just look at it! Try it too! It's very simple!"
For the first time Colonel Brandon saw Kristal's toothy smile.Although he had seen Marianne laughing at Willoughby before, the two were completely different.Twins were completely different individuals, and the Colonel felt he could never get it wrong again.
He was dazzled by Christo's smile, and after recovering, he hurriedly let go of the rope.Fortunately, the operation was very simple, and he easily flew the kite into the sky.
He approached Christo cautiously, but kept a certain distance. No matter how close he was, he knew that the two kites would get entangled.
Because there was a slight distance between the two of them, he asked in a slightly louder voice than usual. "Christopher, do you have any hobbies?"
"Hobby?" Christo took the time to glance at the Colonel, "Read poetry?" She wasn't sure if it was a mission or a hobby, but at least it was a standard answer.
"Shakespeare?"
"The colonel doesn't like this kind of thing very much. The poet is not just a Shakespeare, he is indeed the most classic, and he is irreplaceable." Even in the 21st century, his plays are still being staged.There is a kind of talent that will not be outdated, it will last forever.
"I saw one of his plays when I was in London. Which one did you like?"
"Criolanus, he was a legendary general in ancient Rome in the 5th and [-]th centuries BC." What Christo was thinking about was the interpretation of Dou Sen's family affection in her previous life, but it is undeniable that this also impressed her deeply.
In her previous life, she could only look at Shakespeare's things from a distance, but she lacked the necessary accumulation. Now that she has received an orthodox cultural education, she has the ability to appreciate Shakespeare and sees more irony and truth in it.
Colonel Brandon was silent again, he had not heard of the play.He admitted very bluntly: "I have never seen this drama, and I have never heard of this name."
"I think it's the same. You are honest enough. I think this is a very important virtue. This drama is not well known by the world." Kristo refocused on the kite in front of her.She realized that if she didn't talk about what she had learned in books and what she liked, she and Colonel Brandon had nothing to talk about.Therefore, plans can never keep up with changes.
The colonel was also embarrassed. Christo's temptation this time was very clumsy, which made him a little bit dumbfounded. "I'm not good at words, maybe you also think that people of my age are no longer suitable for talking about love."
"Why do you think so. I think the colonel is very good." Finally, when she got to the point, Chris was very energetic. For some reason, when the colonel mentioned her age and felt a little lost, she wanted to clarify herself immediately. the opinion of.
"Is that respect for elders? A young man like Mr. Willoughby is more attractive to the ladies. Maybe I really want to save the last face and stop thinking about love."
Marianne's enthusiasm makes people more frustrated and courageous, and Christo's mystery makes people afraid to approach.
"Why do you underestimate yourself, you are very good. At least Mr. Willoughby would not think of building a business for himself. He always hoped for gifts from his relatives. Although I should not say so, Mr. Willoughby It’s really not about making progress.”
"I have no talent, no appreciation, and even less interest. My understanding is mediocre, my emotions are flat, and my voice is flat."
"Why are these words so familiar? Did I hear them there?" Christo thought about it for a while, and then realized: "Did you visit our house before?" These words were Marianne's complaints to Willoughby Yes, Christo was teaching Margaret to write letters at the time, and she didn't like the smell of burning candles, so this kind of thing was usually settled in the reception room.Of course she heard it, but she didn't want to say anything more, she had no strength to refute.
"Ahem." Brandon didn't know why he said it suddenly, maybe it was because the words had been lingering in his mind for a long time, he wasn't sure if Christo's silence was the default meaning, but these words did wears down his will.
"Did you hear that?" Christo's kite has slowly declined due to the previous loss of consciousness.Seeing that the decline was irreversible, she quickly stretched out her hand and gestured, "Colonel, do you have a knife?"
The colonel drew his pocket knife from his lap.He has better control than Chris, and he keeps an eye on the kite in his hand.He approached Christo with small steps, and then the knife was handed to Christo carefully.The colonel moved a little further away, for fear that the two kites would get entangled.
Christo has no such worries.She took two steps towards the colonel, and under her deliberate control, the two kites were entangled as expected.She cut it neatly with a knife, and the two kites wrapped around Heze and drifted away with the wind.
"I think Shakespeare's sonnets don't need to be read in cadence, because no matter how good you read, you can't compare with the author. You just need to tell and I think your voice is very nice, like a cello piece , It must sound good to read! As for the lack of interest, it depends on what you think."
Chris looked at the direction the kite was flying away for a while, then sat on the grass with her knees tucked up.She specially wore a dark skirt, because it is not easy to get dirty, so it can be regarded as premeditated.
The colonel was heartbroken by what Christo said, maybe he could have hoped that what Christo said was not pity and comfort? "Do you want to get another kite?"
"No need, flying a kite is all about letting go of your mood. You see our kites are all entangled and fly away, this is my attitude. I don't like Mr. Willoughby, it's quite clear to say that, though, We may still need more understanding." Now that you have made up your mind to wake up, you should be straightforward and clear without leaving any misunderstandings.She doesn't like Romeo and Juliet, she just doesn't like the kind of erroneous and muddled misunderstandings.
Brandon sat on the grass next to Christo, he was silent for a while, and then said: "I like you, Christo."
The author has something to say: There is nothing more to say, let’s go to the title.
