[Gone with the Wind] Miss Margot

In fact, there was another person in this room at the time, that was Rhett Butler, who was rejected by men all over the South. Because of the public anger caused by his views, Rhett Butler had to find a place to take a nap.

He never expected that the eldest lady of the O'Hara family would choose this room to confess her love to the male protagonist of today's engagement banquet, let alone Scarlett would ask Ashley Wilkes to elope with her.

At this time, Rhett became somewhat interested in Scarlett.

But the reality is so dramatic, not only the other two girls from O'Hara's family also came!

It was true that Rhett Butler had heard a big show, but now he was even more afraid to sit up.

Not only was he afraid to sit up, but he had to hide himself so that Sister O'Hara wouldn't find him.

After all, eavesdropping is not a very honorable thing to do.

On the other side, when the door slammed loudly, I heard Suellen excitedly say: "Margo, you're really amazing. It's the first time I saw Scarlet speechless."

Margot sighed, and said, "Silly boy. Do you think Scarlett can swallow her anger so easily? Maybe she thinks that we will spread the news of today's events everywhere. Therefore, she will definitely choose to find A suitor, making a marriage contract for himself, and then getting married quickly. You say, among the unmarried men around today, who is the most likely?"

When Suellen heard this, she immediately jumped up and said, "Frank! No, no, I'm going to find him!"

Margot sighed and said, "Suellen, have you really identified that Mr. Kennedy?"

Su Ailun was taken aback, stopped opening the door, turned her head, and said, "Margo?"

Margot said: "You have seen Mr. Kennedy's performance today. It's just a girl with a better appearance, but just a few smiling faces, and he forgets you. Suellen, think about it carefully. , Does he really love you? This kind of thing, there will be a second time after the first time. He can ignore you so much now, and in the future when you marry him, he will have even more reason to ignore you. Are you really Do you want this kind of marriage? One look from another woman, and your husband ran away, leaving you alone in an empty house. Is this the marriage you want?"

Suellen said, "But, but I only have Mr. Kennedy."

Margot said: "Suellen, you are my sister, and I sincerely hope that you will be happy. Moreover, I believe that if mother knows about this today, she will have the same opinion as Mr. Kennedy. Suellen , you are still young. There are few boys in the county, but it does not mean that there are no outstanding men in other places."

Su Ellen suddenly said, "Just like the two gentlemen today? The only men who are not fascinated by Scarlett today, except for Ashley, are the two sitting next to you."

Mag said: "Not to mention Mr. Clark of Macon, he is an admirer of the translator Gerald O'Hara, and today is the first time he faces his idol, so it is naturally different. But another... ..."

Suellen asked, "What happened to the other one?"

Margot said: "The other one is not the kind of character that is easy to control. At least, he is not very suitable for young girls."

When Su Ailun heard this, she became interested and immediately asked, "Why?"

Margot gestured for her sister to sit down beside her, and said, "That's a rebellious character. Although his personality is the same as Scarlett's, he looks like a child. But it cannot be denied that he has experienced many things. He Young girls like us cannot match his experience and vision. Moreover, this person has a very bad personality. Just like what he said just now, he obviously wanted to remind everyone of the weakness of the South, but he chose to use Said it in a mocking tone.—”

Suellen said, "Margo, aren't you optimistic about the south?"

Margot said: "Yes. Because the South is a society with distinct classes. If nothing else, just look at this conscription. Blacks are not accepted, poor whites are not accepted, only children from upper-class families are required. But no one remembers, War kills people. The children of the big manor's family stand brightly on the battlefield, and that is a ready-made target. When these men die, who will protect us, the female relatives? Therefore, the decline of the South is inevitable. All I have to do is prepare early. For state rights after the war."

Su Ellen suddenly said: "Margo, this is the real reason why you suddenly became very active today."

Margot said: "Yes. Suellen. I plan to marry myself off as quickly as possible. Unmarried girls are too constrained in this world, and they can hardly do anything."

Suellen said: "So, which of those two gentlemen do you like?"

Margot said: "That Mr. George Clark was from Barton Manor in Macon. Do you remember? The old Mr. Clark of Barton Manor passed away five years ago. And the old Mrs. Clark was not long after the birth of her youngest daughter. He died of a blood collapse. Mr. George Clark had an older sister who was already married and a younger sister who was only six years old. Barton Manor is one of the largest manors in Macon, with 160 black slaves. Such a family, only Enough room to maneuver."

Suellen said: "Then I will also ask Kennedy to marry me as soon as possible."

"Suellen?!"

Suellen smiled and said: "Margo, you have always been very smart. If it is only about the brain, neither I nor Scarlett can compare to you. Even you can only make such a decision, then I am even more helpless." It's a choice. Margot, Kennedy has more bad things, but he owns more land than anyone in our county. And he's the only one in his family. If I marry him, I can immediately Be the master of the house. Margot, I'm not smart enough and I'm young, will you teach me to be a qualified wife?"

"of course."

"Then it's settled."

Hearing this, Rhett Butler wanted to whistle.

He never expected that this Miss Margot O'Hara actually gave him a glance and saw the future of the South that was doomed to fail miserably!

People with such insights, not to mention women, are very rare even men!

But Margot O'Hara is an unmarried girl who is only 16 years old!

If Marge hadn't already targeted George Clark, Rhett Butler would definitely jump out and propose to him immediately.

It has nothing to do with love, it's just because of the other party's bright mind and the same deep love for the south as myself.
