[Quick Transmigration] Never expected
Chapter 81 M13 Gone with the Wind 3
Scarlett struck like a bolt of lightning in a clear summer sky.
When she and Ashley were together, it was like a bird flying after the sun. It looked warm and lovely, but it was an ordinary scene in nature.And when Rhett Butler met her, one was like a storm with heavy clouds, and the other was like a hailstorm with great destructive power, lightning flashed and thundered within a radius of ten kilometers in an instant.
Xiao Mimi rushed to speak before Rhett, because she always felt that this man's way of expression was very problematic, and there was no way to describe him with the bloody description of "love is ugly in the heart".If he could have been a little more polite to Scarlett when they first met, maybe he wouldn't have taken so many detours later, but the reader's fun would probably be much less.
Rhett Butler's love coexists harmoniously with cynicism.
"My little darling, why did you run out?" Xiao Mimi hurriedly waved to Scarlett, drawing her attention to her side: "Nurse's hand was injured, thanks to this kind master, this time The bleeding finally stopped."
In fact, it was also because of the appearance of this "good old man" that Xiao Mimi stuck the needle into his flesh.
Scarlett was unmoved, and stared fiercely at Rhett, who didn't look like a good person. The emerald green eyes were like shining gems, which reminded Rhett of what his friends in the same industry once showed off. The strange and wonderful vessel brought back from the East, the emerald green emeralds inlaid on it are exactly the same as Scarlett's eyes.
No, no, they are not all the same. How many gems can match the demeanor of a girl in the cardamom age?
He irritated Scarlett with great interest, hoping that her eyes would burst out with intense emotion. He had seen too much of the lifelessness of southern ladies, and Scarlett's liveliness left a very deep impression on him: "Since your nanny has explained everything clearly, madam, can you allow me to leave now with a wronged and wounded heart?"
Well, even if I wronged her, this man who is very old and looks very frivolous must not be a good person. How could he come to Ashley's house? Ashley doesn't seem to be with such a person As a friend, Scarlett felt obligated to ask Ashley: "Who are you? Why did you come to the Wilkes' house?"
After all, Rhett Butler is already an adult, crushing Scarlett is a matter of minutes: "Could this be Miss Wilkes?"
"..." Scarlett was at a loss for words, but she thought about it, if she married Ashley, she would be a member of the Wilkes family sooner or later, so her confidence suddenly increased, and she said, "I am Will A relative of the Kex family."
A 14-year-old girl would still be a little shy when she said such words. He had already seen some clues from her dizzy cheeks who Reid was. Shall I go to Mr. Wilkes, I've come to do business with him."
It turned out to be a businessman, Scarlett looked at Rhett, no wonder he looked so shrewd and cunning.
"You wait here." Scarlett didn't bother to talk to him, and turned to Xiao Mimi: "Nurse, is your hand alright?"
Mimi Xiao could feel that Rhett Butler's gaze had been looking at this place. It was conceivable that even if he didn't fall in love with Scarlett at first sight, he was interested at first sight, but his appearance was not what Mimi Xiao expected. If If Xiao Mimi felt guilty for bringing together Scarlett and Ashley before, now in front of Rhett Butler, Xiao Mimi's guilt is equivalent to the flow of Niagara Falls.
She felt that she couldn't bear such a baptism of eyes, so she pulled Scarlett aside and said, "Nurse is fine, she just got stuck with a needle. Why did you run out, what did Alan say you forgot?"
Scarlett curled her lips: "Su Lun told me that there is something wrong with you here."
"But she didn't come out by herself," Xiao Mimi told Scarlett seriously: "She told you and watched you run out, but she won't come out by herself, Scarlett, you will be scolded."
Scarlett looked indifferent: "Of course I know she won't run out with me, otherwise she wouldn't be a selfish Su Lun. But ma'am, it's dangerous for you to be with white people, not all white people Like the O'Haras."
Xiao Mimi blinked, and then blinked again. She didn't expect Scarlett to be so clear-headed. She just ran out because she was worried about Mama Hei. It didn't mean she didn't understand. This child was like a mirror.
Even though she was so blind in love, she was still Mammy's good boy.
This made Xiao Mimi feel like a stone was blocked in her heart, she pushed Scarlett: "You take this master in, don't keep him waiting."
Seeing that Mama Hei was really okay, Scarlett gave Rhett a "follow me" look, and then strode towards the main house. The strides of the riding boots were long, and she was displeased to find that the other party was no slower than herself, and almost trotted all the way to the gate, like a naughty deer.Xiao Mimi, who was peeking from behind, smiled unconsciously as she watched the two chase each other away.
Then her smile quickly disappeared again.
Mr. Wilkes was a little embarrassed to see the appearance of Rhett Butler. He is a conservative person, and his son is also a conservative person, so he is very insensitive to Rhett Butler's ideas, and at this time the southern It is also generally believed that the Yankees are afraid to go to war with themselves, so the warehouse on the conventional route is not a risk to them, and there is really no reason to choose Rhett Butler.It was too late for Mr. Wilkes to hide from him these days, but Scarlett didn't know about it, so now Mr. Wilkes had no choice but to bite the bullet and invite the guests to his study.
Scarlett's big eyes swept around, and saw that her mother, Allen, and a group of female relatives also happened to appear in the hall from the dressing room, which meant that she didn't find herself running outside, and she was overjoyed He quickly ran over and sat down next to Alan, and cast a smug look at his sister Su Lun, who had failed in his plan. This expression was caught by Rhett who was about to go upstairs, but soon, he found Scarlett's The eyes were on only one person, and that was Ashley.
That's it, he couldn't help thinking.
For a girl in her teens, this preference is not surprising at all.
Scarlett found that as long as she sat quietly next to Allen, Ashley would look over from time to time and release a friendly smile to himself.If she turned 16 this year, he was sure that Ashley would come forward and invite him to dance, who said otherwise?He was sure to do it, and Scarlett resisted the urge, though she wanted to jump up and take the horse for a run outside.
Because she had already discovered what Ashley liked about her, and Scarlett was willing to endure it.
If Xiao Mimi saw it, she would definitely sigh. A man like Ashley has the best riding skills in the county, but he doesn't need a woman to ride faster than himself; on the contrary, if it is Rhett Butler, he will definitely He happily spent a large sum of money to buy the best horse for Scarlett, and then watched her ride away with a smile.
In fact, Scarlett's patience is only temporary, and her personality is destined that she will not be able to bear it for long.
"I found that Ashley has been looking at me." Scarlett couldn't calm down on the bed for a moment: "Nurse, do you think he likes me?"
Xiao Mimi suspects that Alan can also see it. Judging from Alan's good background, she is likely to be satisfied with Ashley, and Ashley has no engagement yet.Although the Wilkes family has the idea of getting closer to Melanie's family, it is still just an idea and has not been realized. It is not impossible for Allen to be one step ahead.Besides, Gerald only had three daughters, and Mr. Wilkes might not be willing to marry the O'Hara estate.
Although no one can predict who will be in power in the future, Ashley, as the eldest son, is incapable of running the industry, so thank God he can maintain the status quo, everything in the future must be Scarlett's world.
And with Mimi Xiao, she might be able to help the protagonist avoid some tragedies brought about by the Civil War.
Thinking about it this way, Xiao Mimi is not very guilty, she can save Alan's typhoid fever, and saving Alan is saving Gerald, which is saving everyone.
It's all she can make up for Scarlett.
In the master bedroom, Gerald and Allen were arguing silently. Allen rarely did this. She married Gerald, who was 17 years old when she was 43. This is a marriage in everyone's eyes. But she fulfilled Mrs. O'Hara's mission very well, gave birth to three children, kept the manor in good order, and even treated the black slaves with kindness and kindness. All the towns and villages said that they were good couples.But they have a fatal flaw, that is, Alan does not have feelings for Gerald.
That night, she just mentioned to Gerald that Scarlett liked Ashley, because she had a lot of contacts with the Wilkes family, and Alan knew the Wilkes family's plans for Ashley's marriage all the time. , if she wants to talk about this marriage for Scarlett, then she must act quickly.
The most appropriate way is for the man to mention it when he is drinking and hunting. If Allen mentions this matter rashly, it will hurt Scarlett's face, and the jokes between men will be true if they go further. One step is drunk jokes, harmless.
Gerald refused without thinking about it. He repeated only one sentence, Ashley and Scarlett were not suitable.
It's almost like saying Ashley is not good enough for Scarlett.
"Ashley is gentle, gentle and knowledgeable, and I didn't think so. The reality is that my daughter likes him." Even when he was arguing, Alan's voice was calm: "She is my child, and I know what she wants."
Gerald didn't know what to think of, and his face suddenly became ugly: "She's just too young and doesn't know what she wants. You should know that Scarlett's character is more like me, and Ashley's lifeless She won't be happy with people."
If Gerald can't be persuaded, Scarlett's marriage will be very passive, and Ellen is a little anxious: "Scarlett is too young, didn't I think about her? Ashley is a reliable young man, we The two families are neighbors, so there is no better marriage like this."
Gerald replied sullenly: "You are thinking about her with your preferences. Be realistic, Ellen, Scarlett is not your child alone, she is the child of both of us, and I have to worry about her too." consider."
This insinuation was heart-piercing, and Allen lowered his face: "What do you mean, Gerald?"
"Don't you think that Ashley is so much like your gentle and knowledgeable Philip, that Scarlett is also suitable for such a man?" Gerald regretted it after finishing speaking, and he hurriedly put on his nightgown just left.
Allen didn't chase him, but left the light on, but Gerald didn't show up again all night.
Early the next morning, he saddled his horse and was about to inspect his cotton industry. Allen asked him blankly if he wanted to bring some water and dry food. He faltered and nodded, and then said that he would not come back at night : "I'm dating old Wilkes."
When she and Ashley were together, it was like a bird flying after the sun. It looked warm and lovely, but it was an ordinary scene in nature.And when Rhett Butler met her, one was like a storm with heavy clouds, and the other was like a hailstorm with great destructive power, lightning flashed and thundered within a radius of ten kilometers in an instant.
