The engagement ceremony had to be hastily ended because the empress was tired from pregnancy.

After the banquet, Mr. Durbeyfield was still reluctant to leave the restaurant, holding a bottle of red wine that was half drunk, his cheeks were flushed, and he laughed foolishly from time to time.Mrs. Durbeyfield took a group of children to visit the room where they will sleep tonight. From the uninterrupted exclamations and chattering voices from the guest room on the second floor, one can guess that the young master of the Durbeyfield family How excited and novel the ladies should be at this moment.And the hero of our banquet, Mr. Ackley, is leaning against the corner wall at the moment, intending to finish smoking the cigar and go back to the bedroom to accompany his beautiful and charming fiancée, although his new housekeeper, Mr. Disapprove of his behavior.

In Demville's view, even if they are unmarried couples, they should abide by etiquette and respect each other.You must know that Her Majesty the Queen of their country is such an example. In today's society, especially the upper class, even couples who have been married for a long time have not seen each other's body completely.It was therefore difficult for Durbeville to understand how exactly Miss Durbeyfield tolerated Mr. Alec's frivolous, and even what seemed to him insulting, conduct.But since Miss Durbeyfield has no objection, as a butler who respects his master and is dedicated to his duties, Durmville can only restrain himself as much as possible and obey all the decisions of this ridiculous master.What's more, he is only a temporary housekeeper.

So Demville Steward went down to arrange affairs with a restrained square face.After all, there are less than two weeks left before the head of the family gets married.

Alec didn't know what kind of struggle the Demville butler who was standing not far away had just experienced, but even if he knew, he would just sneer.He admits that he is a prodigal son, he always does whatever he wants, so why bother what others think.

It was very hot tonight, and the air seemed to be frozen. Even the crickets in the grass outside the house chirped listlessly and then fell silent.

Alec lit the cigar with his index finger, and the smoke fell down on the smooth marble floor. He took the cigar into his mouth and took a deep breath, then threw it out of the window, turned and walked upstairs.

As soon as the bedroom door was opened, the white lace curtains on the bedroom window were blown away by the wind, sweeping away the stuffy air just now, and blowing the books on the glass tea table under the window sill to "rustle" ring.

"Honey, go and close the window, will you?" A lazy but sexy nasal voice came from the bed, and he turned around following the sound and saw his lovely beauty was already lying on the bed, beautiful At this moment, his eyes were narrowed into a slit, and his long, fan-like eyelashes blinked and blinked. He looked as if he was going to sleep, which instantly made his heart itch.

"I'd be happy to be of your service, dear."

He closed the window obediently, returned to his mother's side, lifted the quilt to the bed unceremoniously, and embraced the beauty in his arms, a fragrance that was completely different from the perfume and flower dew that he usually smelled on women rushed in. nose.He took a deep breath, and couldn't help stretching out his hand to push away the woman's brown curly hair scattered on the white soft pillow, revealing her white and slender neck.

The empress was half asleep and half awake, her tired consciousness had already sunk into sleep, but the little movements of the man beside her kept annoying her so much that she had to forcefully separate her mind.

She stretched out her hand and gently pushed the man beside her, subconsciously said with deep sleepiness: "Jun'er, stop making trouble."

Alec couldn't understand what Tess said, he paused in doubt, but obviously, he was quickly attracted by the soft touch of the woman's pushing him, causing her pride to squeeze even more towards his chest I stopped looking.Looking up at the unconscious woman, he stretched out his hand hesitantly, and slowly slid down from the touch of her beautiful collarbone, and soon came to the towering place that fascinated him the most.Slowly closing his palms, just about to put the evil thoughts in his mind into action, a loud thunder suddenly sounded in the silent summer night!

The empress opened her eyes suddenly, covered Alec's hand on her chest and panted rapidly, with disbelief in her eyes... and a little bit of horror, she looked at him.

Alec could feel her heart beating violently under the palm of his hand, and he couldn't help feeling guilty, although in his opinion, this was not an excessive behavior compared to usual, but he was still weak, "Hey, honey, isn't this ...you, what's wrong with you?"

Sliding down the woman's gaze, under the continuous lightning white light outside the window, I saw a dark water stain slowly spreading on the purple bed sheet, and even Alec's thigh that was close to her body felt it. wetness.

Alec was about to reach out to touch it, but the empress grabbed his arm, "Quick, I'm going to give birth! Find my mother!"

Alec just woke up like a dream, he got up suddenly, didn't care to put on his shoes, opened the door and shouted: "My God! Find me a doctor quickly!..." Alec's voice gradually faded away .

In the bedroom, the empress endured the pain, and touched her restless stomach with trembling sweaty hands, "My child, my child, you will be born safely, definitely!"

The lightning outside the window was still flickering, making the empress's soft and beautiful face more calm, and there was a firm light in her beautiful eyes.

*****

Alec had never experienced such uneasiness before, his heart was beating non-stop, and his spirit was tense to the extreme.He could only relieve his nervousness by walking back and forth at the door.

"Has the doctor been found?" he asked the servant from time to time.

"Yes, Mr. Groby himself," replied the servant hastily.

Alec tilted his ears, as if he heard Tess's muffled hum, but he didn't seem to hear anything.It was already pouring rain outside, accompanied by bursts of thunder, which made his impatient heart even more restless.He clenched his fists and ran out suddenly.

"Oh! Master!" The servants couldn't help exclaiming as they saw Alec running into the rainstorm without looking back.But apart from hearing a horse cry piercing the rainy night, there was no other reply from Master Alec.

The old lady d'Urberville opened her dull eyes, and was a little dazed for a moment when she heard the servant's shout outside.

Alec ran out with his horse in his arms.Knowing that Groby had gone out to find a doctor, he still couldn't control himself and ran out impulsively.In his first 25 years, there has never been such a sense of pride and responsibility, constantly reminding him that he is a man, a husband, and a father!His wife and children are waiting for him to take care of, and he can't back down!

So, with such a sense of pride, he galloped in the direction of London on his horse.

Groby was driving a carriage, and soon after, Alec overtook him.Looking at Alec's running back, Groby couldn't react for a while.The man who just left...is it really his selfish and naughty young master?

It takes two hours to ride a horse from London to Castle Hunt, but because it is a rainy night, there is no one on the road, and Alec is running desperately all the way, and in just over an hour, he successfully entered the park. the city of London.

He came to the door of the most famous clinic in London, got off his horse, and slammed the iron door of the clinic.

"Come save someone, follow me!" The doctor on duty opened the door, and saw a drenched man looking at him with piercing eyes.

At the same time, in the bedroom of the manor, Lisa couldn't bear to see the condition of the empress.She could only suppress her fear, and kept wiping Wan Zhen'er's cold sweat with a towel, while Mrs. Durbeyfield concentrated on paying attention to the situation of her eldest daughter, holding her hand tightly and guiding her. She gave birth.

"Tess, my dear, oh, try harder, and I can see the baby's head," encouraged Mrs. Durbeyfield.

Wan Zhen'er's lower lip was already stained with blood from her own bite, Lisa noticed it now, quickly picked up another handkerchief, rolled it into a ball, and stretched it out to her mouth for the empress to bite.

Wan Zhen'er has already had experience in giving birth to a child, and knows that the longer the child is delayed, the more dangerous it is, especially since he is still a premature child who has just turned eight months to less than nine months, so this woman who is used to enjoying herself on weekdays is now Gritting his teeth, mobilizing the strength of his whole body, he squeezed his lower body hard.

"Ah——" The unspeakable huge trauma and pain spread down to the limbs, reaching the brain, and the veil in the mouth fell straight from the opened mouth.

"Whoa whoa-"

"Mother, it was born, it was born!" Lisa exclaimed excitedly, she looked down and saw the little meat ball, she suddenly fainted, and fell to the bottom of the bed, with joy that had not yet dissipated on her face.

Wan Zhen'er breathed a weak sigh of relief, finally exhausted, and fell asleep peacefully.

"Oh, he's a pretty boy, he really looks like your mother..." Although the pretty boy in Mrs. Durbeyfield's mouth tried hard to open his eyes, no matter how hard he tried, he could only see through the slits of his eyes. Seeing the dim light, the woman's loving chatter is heard next to her ears.With a kick on his tender red calf, he began to cry "Wah-wah-wah".

Outside the window, the torrential rain was still slamming. A burly man was driving a horse anxiously, galloping towards the way he came. Not too wet by the soaking rainwater, the strong candle flickered on and off, becoming the only light in this dark rainy night, silently moving quickly with the carriage.

The man on the horse may not know at this moment that starting tonight, his original life trajectory will undergo a tremendous change. He has a woman, a child, and a home.The originally set plot finally took a hasty turn because of the unexpected arrival of Wan Zhen'er, changing the fate of these three tragic characters.
