Subjectively, and in the eyes of everyone, sooner or later the colonel will get engaged to Christo, because they are completely intimate and there is no obstacle.But Christo knew in her heart that there were too many obstacles between them.This aspect of the Colonel: his past, his adopted daughter, his family, even age that doesn't matter anymore.

And what about Christo herself?Doesn't she have too many secrets: she comments on politics like a man, owns a large manor and land that cannot be seen, and is even surprised by the centuries-old outlook on life with the colonel. threatening her future.

She seemed to have won a lot at today's prom, but in fact she lost even more.Because she finally saw the colonel's attitude towards her.There is guilt and sweetness, but he doesn't mention the engagement.No, maybe he thought about it, but he didn't take this step in the end. This has already explained a lot of things - if he can't let go of Elisa back then, then she will become a joke in the end.

She, may already be a joke.What a failure!She can only maintain it, and the worst plan is that she will still lose everything like an apple that looks good on the outside but rots on the inside.And the better ones are just the realization of their original ideas.

There is a mysterious ocean in a woman's heart.It is elusive and erratic.The colonel has actually noticed the crux of the matter, but he is just ashamed to express it.But now, it's time for good night.The two adults exchanged a very shallow kiss.In the shadow at the corner of the stairs, the moonlight can be seen, but the light cannot be seen.

Under the colonel's worried gaze, Christo staggered upstairs.Fortunately, the road was not long and arrived soon, and she was lucky not to fall down.

Christo walked a few steps on the second floor, and found a place where the colonel could be seen. Maybe she was really drunk. She took off the double-strand silver jewelry she was wearing, and threw it up from the second floor. .

The colonel, who was still standing in a daze, was hit on the shoulder. After he saw the silver jewelry on the ground, he looked up at Christo who was throwing things, and heard his girl say boldly: "Before I see you next time! , you are not allowed to go to the barber shop!" Then the girl whose style was a bit unpredictable recently disappeared from his sight.

The colonel bent down helplessly, and picked up the silver jewelry on the ground.This jewelry is very beautifully made. When he looked at it from a distance, he thought it was very simple, but when he looked closely, there were obviously many complicated patterns embossed on it, and there was a line of very beautiful English fonts on the inside of the bracelet. □Slanted, it seems to be the name of this gesture jewelry: Chuxin.

The colonel didn't think much about it, he just regarded it as Christo's petty temper, or it might be that he didn't do a good job, so he just needs to behave better next time.And what Christo said about not going to the barber shop was probably just a small threat, and he could fix it himself.After all, she is still a 16-year-old girl, and it is normal to have some temper.

The colonel stroked the silver jewelry and put it into his little breast pocket.It's worth saving, like it was his girl.

Christo stood at the corner of the stairs, watching the colonel leave.She sighed, and felt that even her drunkenness had subsided a lot.The fact that she gave the colonel silver jewelry did not mean that the two of them would develop further. On the contrary, she might not see the colonel for a while.That's why she specially reminded the colonel not to go to the barbershop. Even though the request was strange, she believed that the colonel would definitely do it.

After making this decision, she had no strength in her whole body, and Turpin's appearance simply made her at a loss, so she wanted to have a good sleep to relieve her nervous mood.

Early the next morning, Christo told Mrs. Jennings at the dinner table that she had been invited by Aurora.Aurora's invitation seems to be a universal travel interface, allowing her to have some time to dig in. After all, Aurora is always willing to lie for her, as long as she has a good confession.Marianne didn't come down to eat today, which Christo guessed yesterday, but the expressions of the other people at the table were very strange.Sister Lucy aside, they also met some friends at the ball last night, and they were also invited to visit today.

"Are you going to Aurora's? That Aurora Gray?" Eleanor frowned. After arriving in London, she never instilled Christo, because she believed that Christo was a man with a plan. The girl, her sister should be able to control herself.What Chris had done before was pretty good, even in terms of her relationship with the colonel, she was beyond criticism.

But what she did this time was a little outrageous.Doesn't she know that a family shouldn't have two positions?Since that Miss Gray's fiancé is Willoughby, even if it's for her own family, Christo shouldn't maintain a relationship with Gray anymore.

Christo pretended not to see Eleanor's expression.This is actually a statement. If she chooses to give up her relationship with Aurora, it is equivalent to giving up a friend.Aurora was also Willoughby's victim. Besides, I reminded her in every possible way at the beginning, hoping that Marianne could think carefully about it.Christo spread a layer of strawberry jam on the bread. She doesn't like to eat sweets in the morning, which will make her feel bad all day: "Yes, I think you also saw her yesterday."

"Christopher!" Eleanor looked at Mrs. Jennings, but she didn't say much considering that there were outsiders nearby.But the implication of the warning in the words is quite obvious.

"I know what you're going to say, but it's completely pointless for you to do this. By restricting my travels and making friends, will Marianne be able to wake up from that look? Look at what she looks like now, maybe After a while, when we go out together in the street, no one can tell that we are twins!"

"She's your sister!" Eleanor was a little discouraged by what Christo said, but she insisted on emphasizing her opinion.

"If she doesn't want to, then she can tell me in person. What's more, Aurora is also a victim. Willoughby is obviously interested in her dowry. As a friend, just let me stand by and see a good one. Has the girl been cheated?"

"I didn't mean that, but have you ever thought that they are already engaged, and they are one body after they are engaged. What's the use of explaining it from it? What's more, that girl is very proud, and she may not be in Willow. It's a disadvantage for Bi's men." When Eleanor saw Gray for the first time, she didn't like her very much.She looked too condescending, and people who are conceited are always disliked, aren't they?

"Aurora's face looks very proud, and that's not what she thinks. If you get to know her, you will find that she is actually a very confused girl. You can ask in the circles in London, who said that Aurora Laura is a proud person, she is very quiet there, willing to help everyone in need, isn't such a character worth better?"

Eleanor was overwhelmed by Christo's tirade for a while, and Christo got a brief break because of this.The two sisters realized where they were, so they stopped the discussion and concentrated on enjoying the breakfast in front of them.

Mrs. Jennings had been uncharacteristically silent today, which made breakfast very quiet.Chris paid more attention, looked carefully at his wife's face, and found that there was some boredom in her expression, and she probably understood it in her heart.

The Dashwood girl is a human being, not a pound, and still less a god.If others like them, it must be that there are some qualities in them that are worthy of being liked.If others don't like them, that's right, after all, not everyone is cute.

Looking at Mrs. Jennings's appearance, she seemed to have a feeling of disgust for the dispute between their sisters.Today, her attention has been on Sister Lucy, and she seems to want to avoid the neglect of the pair of sisters before.

Christo didn't think about redeeming anything.She finished her breakfast quietly, and was going to go upstairs to change into something she could travel with.

At this time, the butler came in from the door, and he stopped Christo who was about to leave, "Miss, your letter."

Christo walked over and took it.She looked at the envelope, and the style was not that of any friend she knew.The background color of the envelope is pure white, and the texture is also very good. The bronzing decorative lace makes the envelope look luxurious.It reminded her of a person.

After she had peeled off the semi-golden sealant, she was sure of the letter's author—Judge Turpin.Besides him, who would make the wax badge into the shape of a balance, making it look like a subpoena!

Christo didn't read the letter on the dining table, she started to read the letter as she walked to her room.Fortunately, the letter was not written by the judge, but by his adopted daughter.The letter said that Christo was invited to come to her and teach her to play the piano.

It is in line with etiquette, and it falls right into Christo's arms.Although she also suspected it, the judge deceived Mrs. Barton in this way.But after all, her identity is different, and her suitor is not a powerless hairdresser. I don't know if this means that it is safe for her to go to the appointment.

Christo didn't completely believe in the plot she knew.Everything has variables. If you blindly believe in something, you will always lose other scenery.Combining all the reasons, she had to take a risk and visit the judge herself.

The author has something to say: I want to emphasize that judges are not poachers.

At this time, I can't see your messages, so I just make a prediction...
