[Sense and Sensibility] Worth having
Chapter 17
There was a gap between the two of them for a period of time, the surroundings were quiet, only the sound of floating leaves could be heard, and even the sunlight became a little bit empty.The colonel was very nervous, and Christo didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Probably the progress is too fast, so there is no sense of down-to-earth.Chris thought about it for a while, she unconsciously folded a piece of dry grass, and the withered grass leaves were crushed by her rubbing, perhaps she could get a glimpse of some of the fierce struggles in her inner world.
In her plan, there should be a beautiful manor and a prosperous life in the future. She can take off those floor-length skirts and put on simple breeches; she can ride a strong horse and enjoy the life she wants.The colonel's age should be in her plan, as if it is a mutually beneficial relationship, she marries the colonel, and the colonel can give her a rich property after his death, that's all.
But the human heart is indeed the most difficult thing to control. She didn't know when she wanted to spend the rest of her life with the Colonel.She felt that the colonel was a sincere and reliable man, and it was impossible for her to find such a partner even in her previous life.That's why she hinted at the colonel. The colonel confessed, but now she lacks the courage to accept the confession.Really like a child.Kristo spit on herself, she may be older than the colonel in mental age, but in the end she still hesitated.
Is this ok?why not.She can't go back to a certain year in the future. If she still thinks she resists and integrates into this world, then in the end, she will just waste the extra life time for nothing.So, she thought, she liked it too.
"I may not be as good as you think, but I think we can still give it a try." Christo put down the withered grass that had been crushed into slag in her hands, and the tiny pieces of grass in her hands were a little bit ground. Flushed, but lighthearted.
So the colonel saw her smile again, not the kind of fake smile, but a smile that came from the heart and was purely relaxed.
"I will give you happiness." The colonel was a little nervous, his voice became a little serious, it sounded like he was reading a military order, not talking about love.Such pursuit skills are really clumsy and cute.
"Okay, I believe." Christo looked into Brandon's brown eyes.Well, maybe she missed some good things about the Colonel before, for example, in his eyes, there is the tiredness after years of precipitation, and the joy of finding love, which gave her a very reassuring feeling—fortunately, she didn’t miss it .Christo thought to herself.
The confession of both parties has been rewarded, and Chris has less worries when talking more.Of course she won't reveal her feminine nature right away, but at least the conversation will involve some household matters.
For example, she soon learned from the colonel that he had an adopted daughter. When the colonel talked about it, he was very embarrassed. He was not sure if Christo could accept a girl who was about her size.
The colonel spends a large sum of his annual income for the life of his adopted daughter in a girls' school.Out of sight is out of sight, since Christo has decided to be with the colonel, this problem can still be overcome, but the problem now is that this girl disappeared while visiting a friend, and there has been no news of it so far.
"So there's no news yet?" Life in a girls' school is not only expensive, but also a closed and rigorous education.They were kept in a golden cage, ignorant of the outside world, and only knew to talk to their female companions.The men in the family are a major reference for them to the opposite sex. Colonel Blanton neither held any parties nor had timely conversations with his adopted daughter. Such rich and raised girls are the easiest to be deceived by others.
"I just want her to have the best education possible."
"Etiquette and talent, girls' schools can only teach these things, and maybe a little skill." Chris frowned, dealing with men's skills, these things are not beneficial to the soundness of personality. "I have a few friends living in London. I thought I could do my part too."
"London? Did you live there?" The colonel was a little puzzled, which stemmed from the fact that he tried to find out about Christo as much as possible during this period.Logically speaking, her living area is Nolan Manor and Barton Manor. She has never left Dashwood's house, and there should be no possibility of going to London.
"My governess took some lessons in London after the lessons were over. So I have a relationship with the girls she teaches, and of course the correspondence is hidden from the family, you mustn't Get rid of me!" Kristo shook the colonel's arm, said pitifully, and immediately smiled again after the colonel nodded.
Brandon said a little worriedly: "But this is not very safe. After all, you don't know which girls you are communicating with." After speaking, he was a little worried that Chris thought he was meddling.
"No, we'll see each other in social season, they're around my age."
The words 'social season' made the Colonel a little nervous.Young and beautiful girls like Krystal are always sought after during social season!
Chris saw that Brandon hadn't spoken all this time, and thought he was still worried about his adopted daughter, so she comforted her: "It's okay." This sentence comforted an old man's hidden worries, so he had to That said, sometimes misunderstandings are wonderful.
At this time, there were still three kites in the sky. In order to increase the success rate of flying, the kites made by everyone were all in the same rhombus shape, so now I don’t know whose kite has not been flown into the sky.
Christo looked over and guessed that Eleanor didn't let go. The elder sister's thoughts became more and more serious recently. At first, she thought that flying a kite could relieve her anxiety, but now it seems that Willoughby and Marianne have grown up. The appearance of being in a pair stimulated Eleanor, and maybe the pair of himself and the colonel should be added?Their eldest sister was sharp and reasonable, and she must have seen the clues about her and the Colonel.
The elders sitting under the tree also have their talk, and the talk of the elderly is nothing more than the children.Mrs. Dashwood implicitly and triumphantly described the excellent upbringing of her children: "They have all received the influence of literature and some artistic skills. I think this can enhance their temperament."
"That's right, you can see that Marian is turning Willoughby fans around." Mrs. Jennings said cheerfully. Her original intention was to appreciate the vigor of these young people in pursuing love, but the words reached Mrs. Dashwood's ears , it becomes a criticism of Marianne's unethical behavior.
Mrs. Dashwood's smiling face disappeared immediately. She opened her mouth, but seeing Mrs. Jennings' indifferent attitude, she became discouraged and fell silent.If Christo was by her mother's side at this moment, it would be summed up that this is where a scholar meets a soldier.
Mrs. Jennings didn't see Mrs. Dashwood's displeased expression. She still talked about it with eloquence, and this time she talked about Eleanor again: "Is there any young man that Eleanor likes? I think she has been a little bit lately. It's right to be out of your mind, maybe my sister's love affair will make my sister feel a little lonely, I think you should comfort her."
"Eleanor is very sensible, she won't be jealous of her younger sister, she is the one that makes me worry the most."
"Ah! I thought Christo was the one who reassured you the most. If you ask me, she is really a good girl. She is considerate when she talks, and she doesn't talk much at ordinary times. She looks very quiet. She seems to be the best discipline. Yes. And when she played the piano for the first time, her piano skills were outstanding!"
Mrs. Dashwood forced a smile. She really couldn't understand how Christo could chat happily with such a vulgar lady.And now that her daughter is not by her side, it makes her somewhat unable to resist the 'enthusiastic' Mrs. Jennings.
Fortunately, at this time, the colonel and Christo were walking towards them. Seeing their tacit understanding, everyone had a bottom line in their hearts.Their approach prevented Mrs. Jennings from making nonsense with Mrs. Dashwood, because Christophe, who loved her most, had arrived.
"Hey! Colonel Brandon, I didn't expect you to choose Christo in the end. I mistakenly thought that you liked Marian. Christo is a good girl. You are really blessed."
"That's right, Christophe is good at playing the piano, and the colonel is also a master. If you have time, you can play a piece together." Sir John just spoke for his old friend, although the development of the matter made him very nervous. Surprised, this fellow Brandon didn't reveal the slightest bit of information in advance, so they didn't invite Willoughby to the previous banquet to create opportunities for him!
Christo and Colonel Brandon made it under the tree, and the two kept a certain distance. They were a little closer than before, but they were not inseparable. "I'm looking forward to the ensemble."
"I think "British Suite" is a good choice. I published a part of it in the newspaper, which was given to us by Sir John. Although I haven't played it, I just read the score. It is very moving." Lisdo answered quite frankly, because only if she behaved calmly, would she not be made fun of by Mrs. Jennings.
"Then I have to practice hard, so as not to lose face in front of the lady." The colonel answered the words very naturally. The two of them were used to singing in harmony when talking with Mrs. Jennings in order to spread the firepower, and now they cooperated even more. seamless.
"Then you really need to study it carefully. My piano skills are recognized by everyone!" Christophe was arrogant, her acting skills were exaggerated, and she pleased everyone very well. Sir John didn't know what he thought of, so he couldn't help laughing Can't wait to come.
Mrs. Dashwood really didn't want to get involved with Christopher and Colonel Brandon from the bottom of her heart, so she asked abruptly: "Why don't you play for a while, they haven't come back yet!"
"Our kite got entangled, so we had to give up." Christo replied very naturally, then glanced at her mother's displeasure, and changed the subject calmly: "When I was here just now, I watched to Marianne's, where did they play?"
This is where misfortune has come to the fore, and Christo and Marianne have secretly broken up.Now she can only hope that Marianne will not be sentimental and think that the colonel originally liked her, but only chose herself when there was no hope.
