[Tess of the D'Urbervilles] Concubine Wan Gui counterattacks the doormat

Alec and Bud entered a cafe called "Beaver's Creek" near the Star Theater in London.

There were a lot of customers in the cafe, most of them gathered around the arc-shaped marble bar. The gentlemen took off their white gloves and caps and put them on the bar. They stood drinking coffee and talked in small groups. The sound is very noisy.

Alec and the others turned around the bar familiarly, entered the first hall, and sat at a table. This position was facing the street, and the bustling carriages and people on the street could be seen through the glass.

Bud called the waiter over, ordered two glasses of beer, and then refocused on Alec.

"Hey, buddy, what's up?" He nudged Alec, who had been silent all the way.

Alec remained silent, but looked at another corner of the first hall. Bud followed his gaze and saw a lady.She looked to be about 25, wearing a faded yellow high-waisted skirt and a wide beige round-brimmed hat that hid most of her face, but Bud could still see Seeing her high nose and mouth with scarlet lipstick, her red hair was curled into a bun and hidden inside the hat, leaving only a few strands of sideburns hanging down naturally, making her red lips even more vivid.She was sitting motionless in front of an empty cup at the moment, as if the person she had been waiting for hadn't arrived yet, and she looked extremely confused.

Although there was only half of her face, Bud still recognized this somewhat embarrassed lady as Aviva, an actress who was once highly praised by the Star Art Theater.It's a pity that her acting career seems to have come to an end in the past two years, getting worse and worse. With the continuous emergence of newcomers, her position in the theater has become more and more embarrassing. Prostitution to make a living.

Before Bud finished evaluating the lady opposite, his good buddy Alec suddenly stood up. He watched in astonishment as Alec walked straight towards Aviva, stood still in front of her, and looked at her without saying a few words. By then Aviva had stood up and left with him.

Bud touched his chin with his hand, and a very understanding smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He heard that the country girl who Alec was about to marry gave birth to a son not long ago. Maybe Alec has been holding back all this time. up.

The waiter served him two glasses of beer, and Bud didn't care about Alec's leaving without saying goodbye, and took a sip from the glass full of white foam.

Alec did not ride his own horse, but followed Aviva through the bustling and clean London streets, and turned into a dark and narrow alleyway, where the scorching midday sun seemed unable to shine on this impoverished place.Since a heavy rain had just fallen in the morning, the dirty water on the road had not yet receded. With the sound of "tapping" the cowhide boots on Alec's feet, he occasionally alarmed the mice in the corner, and quickly He ran through the narrow alleyway and disappeared in front of him in an instant.The whole alleyway was filled with an unpleasant smell of sewers.

Alec pulled out the decorative veil from the breast pocket of his coat in disgust, and covered his nose and mouth.

Aviva, who was leading the way, didn't seem to smell the stench, and kept walking at a leisurely pace without changing her face.

Finally came to a three-story old apartment in front of.Aviva pushed open the iron door of the apartment and entered the narrow corridor. Alec hesitated outside, but finally followed.

It was even darker inside the apartment.

Arriving at a door on the left side of the second floor, Aviva took out a copper key from the handbag she was carrying, and opened the door with a "click". Alec, who was standing behind her, could immediately see the little key. The whole picture of the room.

On an old peeling red couch, dresses and women's corsets spread all over the space, and next to it was a medium-sized bed, and the white sheets had begun to turn yellow.As soon as Alec's tall and strong figure entered the room, it immediately seemed that the place was even more cramped.

Aviva didn't look back, and reached out to untie the tied hat, revealing her red hair bun, "Start now?" Her voice was a little hoarse, probably caused by excessive drinking.

Alec put on a foolish look again, he began to take off his coat, and his tone was very frivolous: "Of course, I have to satisfy the beauty's request."

Aviva didn't show any expression to Alec's teasing, her expression was always numb.The hands and feet of the two were not slow, and soon, there was no obstacle between the two of them, and they hugged each other and fell on the yellowed bed.

Alec stretched out his hand to pick up her pale face, and kissed her lightly along the side of her face to the corner of her scarlet mouth, which was his usual gentle way to appease women beforehand.Until they kissed her lips, the two of them intersected, and the smell of poorly artificial spices made Alec's brows slightly frowned.

It's like... what's wrong?

Alec staggered the kiss with her, his lips began to move down his neck, and his big hands were cruising on her body.

Aviva called out softly and began to feel something.

Still not right!Is it not slippery enough or the lines are not plump enough?

Alec frowned, thought about it, and decided to make a quick decision.

He directly separated the opponent's legs with his arms, and was about to kick the door, but there was a soft voice in his ears:

"If it's not good...just cut it off!"

"...Cut it off!"

"……Cut!……"

Alec shuddered for a moment, and the place that had been reacting slightly froze for a moment. Then he looked down and saw the face of the woman under him, his heart froze, he shook her off quickly, and got off the bed.

Aviva didn't know what happened at that moment, but she glanced at Alec's back-to-back body, and soon understood. She rolled up the bed-sheet, wrapped herself up, and looked at Alec silently. Quickly dress and boots.

Seeing that Alec was about to open the door and go out, Aviva lowered her eyes and reminded in a low voice: "...remuneration?"

Alec's tall figure paused for a moment, and then he took out a few pounds from his trouser pocket, put them on the sofa without looking at them, and opened the door directly to go out.

Alec almost escaped from this place.

He never imagined that such a shameful thing would happen to him in front of women one day!As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't stay in front of this woman Aviva for a quarter of an hour!He has always been invincible in front of women, but now... it's that damned woman!If it wasn't for her, how could he be panicked by the slavishness he suddenly realized, and how could he go to a lowly woman like Aviva just to prove himself?Alec immediately found an outlet for his inaccuracy, and secretly vowed to teach that woman a lesson after returning home!

The woman Alec was thinking of was opening her arms at this moment, letting the ladies who came to re-size her dress to measure the size of the dress to be re-sewed.

Lisa was lying on the bed with her head propped up on one hand, and the little guy who was "babbling" and talking to herself was lying in her arms, "It's such a pity that you can't wear a pannier, so it won't show that you are a big sister." Nice body."

Mrs. Bronte smiled while holding a tape measure: "High-waisted skirts are also in fashion now, and the naturally hanging folds can perfectly cover Miss Durbeyfield's waist, which will definitely add to your charm, Miss."

Lisa's eyes lit up, "Really? My dear sister..." She elongated her voice and said coquettishly, the meaning was self-evident.

The empress smiled lightly, and raised her long hair to allow Mrs. Bronte to better measure the position of her chest, "... want?"

Lisa nodded, her face full of hope, "Mmm! Mmm!"

The empress turned her head back and said mercilessly: "Tell me about it with Mr. d'Urberville."

"Don't do this!" Lisa went back to bed angrily, but the movement of the bed caused the little guy to panic. His eyes, which had not been fully opened since birth, suddenly became round, and the blue eyes were straight. Looking into Lisa's eyes.

"Your Majesty! Sister! He's staring at me with blue eyes!" Lisa exclaimed joyfully, wrapping her hands around the little guy's soft armpits, carrying him, and turning her face to her mother.

Still staring blue eyes:  …

The empress who didn't fully react: ...

Mrs. Bronte at the side exclaimed: "Little Mr. d'Urberville is so beautiful!"

The empress was staring straight at her son with beautiful blue eyes, her heart was about to soften, she stepped forward to hug him and kissed his soft face vigorously, "What a baby, son, how could you be so annoying? What about pity?"

Blue eyes responded with a push of her calf, as if silently protesting, asking his mother to put him down quickly.

Lisa stood up and sat up, sneaking a sneak attack on the little guy's face from the back, and then said: "Sister, have you named the little guy yet? You can't always call him Blue Eyes."

The empress kissed her son's little arm full of milk fragrance, but said nothing.

Lisa rolled her eyes and said, "How about I give you a few names for your reference?"

The empress glanced at her, but didn't speak to dampen her enthusiasm.

Lisa tried hard to recall the name of the heroine in the TV series she had watched. A name flashed in her mind, and she suddenly thought of it. She said, "Otherwise...Kingsley (Kingsley)" sneaked a glance Mrs. Bronte, who was still standing aside, hinted: "It's a good name. The most famous professor in my 'over there' is called this name. He is good-looking and capable, but I believe our blue When the eyes grow up, they will definitely be better than him!"

Mrs. Bronte saw that the two sisters seemed to have something to say, and that the measurements were almost the same. Except for the changes in the bust and waist, the other parts were similar to the last measurement, so she bowed to the empress tactfully, and gently Push the door and leave.

The empress hugged the little guy who was yawning quickly and tiredly, and picked on the sting: "King?"

Lisa actually understood what the empress meant all at once, so she continued to bury her head in her head and think in detail: "Then Adam? No, no, no! It's too common! Edward? Oh, it's not scissorhands! Darcy? With prejudice? . . . "

The empress ignored Lisa's thoughts, carried the little guy back to the bed, and then said lightly, "Our Auston is going to sleep."

"Oston, Oston?!" Lisa repeated in amazement, her eyes widened in surprise.

Little Oston, who was about to fall asleep, was startled by the stupid aunt's voice, and his little body heaved up and down quickly.

Dissatisfied with her sudden increase in voice, the empress patted her son to comfort her son, gouged her out and signaled her to go out.

Lisa covered her mouth, indicating that she was wrong, and then cautiously opened the door and left.

After closing the door, Lisa still couldn't help thinking:

"By the way, what does Auston mean?... I've only heard of Aegis in the United States..."
