[Tess of the D'Urbervilles] Concubine Wan Gui counterattacks the doormat
Chapter 29 Claire is Coming
"The most fashionable thing about the roof of a house now is to install stone gauze, which can be carved with roses or fine pendant flowers. If you want to achieve a retro effect, the large relief of the prototype is also a very good choice..."
"Wait a minute." Alec interrupted the architect Jude Evans with a gloomy face. Except for the lady sitting next to Alec who was bored, everyone present focused their attention on Alec's words. on him.
He looked up, fixedly looked at Jude's assistant Stephen Wilson, and said in a threatening tone: "I don't want to see this young gentleman again, if your firm wants to continue working for me."
Stephen was stunned, and his face immediately flushed because of being humiliated by Alec.
Jude didn't understand why Alec targeted his assistant, but he still wanted to fight for Stephen, "Mr. d'Urberville, Mr. Wilson is a very good builder, he graduated from Cambridge University..."
"I'm not joking, Mr. Evans." Alec interrupted Jude again with a sneer.
Alec's gloomy tone made the empress who had been silent all this time couldn't help but look sideways.
Jude endured it, and turned to his assistant Stephen, who was already looking very ugly, and said, "Stephen, you go back to London first..."
Stephen clenched his fists, nodded expressionlessly to his boss, and turned to leave.
It wasn't until he couldn't see Stephen that Alec acted aggrievedly to his wife and said, "Honey, he's a bad guy, he's always peeping at you..."
The empress who was affected for no reason was speechless.
Jude, who was still swallowing his anger, was instantly defeated.

Claire stood on the land of the D'Urberville Manor, looking at the scenery below, and couldn't help being dazed.When he drove the wagon to deliver the milk before, he had never seriously noticed that this is a quiet and comfortable property, as if everything is bright and vibrant: several acres of greenhouses stretching down the hillside, at the end At the bottom of the slope was a young forest of Austrian pines, oaks, and fir trees, in which stood a new well-appointed stable the size of a chapel.In the distance of the germination forest, there is a large expanse of lawn, a labyrinth-like garden, and those tall houses with dark red roofs.Behind the house, there is an endless virgin forest.
His Tess is now living in this beautiful and comfortable manor and has become its legitimate mistress.Thinking of this, Claire felt extremely bitter.These... He couldn't give her.
Clare, who has lived for two lifetimes, of course understands that love is not everything in a woman's happiness, and she should also be given a comfortable, beautiful and stable life.He hesitated now, not knowing how to treat her with emotion, he wanted to shrink back, but the endless self-blame and regret tumbling in his heart made him unable to move his feet.
Now, it's like the soles of his feet are nailed, unable to advance or retreat.If a servant hadn't spotted him, perhaps he would have been able to stand here for a whole day today.
"Hey! What are you doing here? This is a private manor, please leave immediately." The servant in red uniform drove away rudely.
Claire remembered the reason why she came here, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I came here to find Mr. d'Urberville."
The servant looked Claire up and down, thinking that the other party was most likely a learned friend of the master, and immediately changed his attitude: "Okay, please follow me, sir."
The servant stretched out his right hand as a gesture of invitation, Clare finally moved his feet, and slowly followed the servant behind him, getting closer to the woman he loved but was ashamed of.
The empress thought of a way to pass the time, that is to embroider the bellyband for the little guy Auston.
Although the summer in the countryside is cooler than that in densely populated cities such as London, the little guy still can't stand the heat. Red rashes grow on his tender buttocks, which are itchy and painful. He couldn't scratch, so he had to lose his temper and cry frequently, which made his parents sleep badly for several nights.So, his beautiful mother thought of embroidering a bellyband for her son, so that the little guy's butt can come out to enjoy the cool.
So she left her husband, who was still listening to the architect, and took the pestering little fellow downstairs to the shade of the garden, where she began to embroider a bellyband for him.
The little guy lay on the baby chair specially designed for him, "babbling" for a while, and the mother only occasionally raised her head to smile at him, teasing him, and then refocused on the embroidery work in hand.The little guy saw that his mother didn't look at him, so he stretched out his chubby hand to play with the bell hanging above. For a while, the garden was filled with the transparent sound of the bell.
Alec looked up at his wife and son from the window, saw that they were still within his sight, so he ignored it, and continued to speak boringly to the architect in front of him who was speaking a term he was not very familiar with. He opened his mouth and yawned.Jude paused, and after Alec finished yawning, he pointed to the structural diagram of the house again and explained to him.
And our empress frowned at her embroidery skills, which she had not practiced for a long time.Since Zhu Jianshen ascended the throne, she has never touched needlework. Before that, she asked the maid to sell her embroidery outside the palace, and took the money to bribe the imperial dining room to give Zhu Jianshen something to eat... The empress thought of this, and her hand The movement on the board couldn't help but stop.
"Dangdang! Dangdang!" The little guy was addicted to playing, and kept shaking the bell vigorously, making a continuous and clear sound.
The empress came back to her senses, seeing her son's cute movements, she couldn't help reaching out to touch his little face.Seeing that his mother finally paid attention to him, the little guy stretched out his little arms and let his mother pick him up as usual.
The empress put the needle, thread and silk cloth into the basket placed on the table, and then reached out and hugged her son.The little guy was finally picked up by his mother to play as he wished, and he grinned happily with his toothless mouth.
"You bad guy, still laughing, still laughing..." She said, shaking his body, the little guy laughed even more happily, and let out a "giggle" laugh.The empress's heart was filled with the little guy's sweet laughter, she hugged him close to her, and pressed her forehead against the little guy's.
"My baby, mom loves you..." She leaned against him and murmured, "So, you have to love mom too, you know?"
The little guy's answer was to kiss his mother's beautiful nose in one mouthful, and his saliva was all over.
"You bad guy!" The empress rubbed her nose against the little guy's body, making the little guy laugh, and he didn't dodge, thinking that his mother was playing a new game with him.
When Claire came with the servant, she saw this beautiful and joyful picture.
His Tess, squinting her happy eyes, was playing happily with her child.
"Please wait a moment, I will go in and report to the gentleman." The servant was also stunned, but he quickly recovered and said to the young man who was also stunned.
Claire nodded, "Okay."
So the servant went in, leaving Claire outside, staring at the woman not far away with nostalgic and joyful eyes.
Empress felt the unknown gaze, raised her head, met Claire's gaze, and was taken aback by the complex emotions in his eyes.Claire's heart flustered for a moment, and she immediately lowered her eyes to cover up the emotions that she couldn't control freely in her eyes.
The empress didn't know, so she turned her attention back to the little guy.The little boy had almost exhausted all his energy after playing for a while, and now he is yawning with his mouth wide open, as if reminding his mother that it's time for his nap again.
Seeing the little guy's yawning expression as if withdrawing from his father, the empress couldn't help laughing.She picked him up and walked into the house.
Alec was bored, but when the servant came in and told him that someone was visiting, he suddenly became interested.
He said to Jude who stopped politely: "Mr. Architect, I feel very good after hearing what you said, let's build it as you imagined," but his tone suddenly sank, "But, I don't I like that your assistant, Mr., participated in the construction of my manor, and I hope you can insist on this."
Jude nodded, "I would like to follow your wishes, Mr. d'Urberville." After finishing speaking, he stood up, put on his hat, and walked towards the door.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he met the lady who was about to come in with the child in her arms, so he took off his hat and put it on his chest, and bowed his head to greet: "Mrs. d'Urberville."
The empress nodded, and said lightly: "Go slowly, sir, I look forward to the good news you bring to us next time."
"I'm looking forward to it too. Goodbye madam." He nodded again and left with his hat on.
Alec came over with long legs, looked at the squinting little guy who was about to fall asleep, and knew that the little wife was going to take the son to take a nap, so he stroked his brown hair lovingly, and kissed him on the forehead Kiss, and then kiss the empress on the face.
"Sweet dreams, dear Tess, and, my dear Auston." Alec said in a low voice, but he didn't seem to move away.
The empress had no choice but to stand on tiptoe and kiss Alec on the side of the face, but he was still pressed by the cunning and greedy him and kissed her mouth forcefully, before letting go.
The empress has already practiced the ability not to be surprised, even though she was attacked by Alec, she still held the child firmly, just stretched out her hand to pat Alec, and then went upstairs.
Alec looked at the slender figure upstairs and couldn't stop thinking.
Later...Maybe, he can also take a lunch break?Oh, what a delightful thought.
When Claire was brought in, what she saw was Alec's gleeful face.
Seeing a stranger come in, Alec immediately stopped smiling and put on airs that a manor owner should have.
"Sir, I heard...you are looking for me?" Alec slowed down his speech, looked him up and down, with a trace of arrogance in his tone, "But, I don't know you."
"Yes, Mr. d'Urberville," Claire bowed and nodded respectfully, took off his hat and put it on his chest, "I came to you in the hope of finding a job in the d'Urberville estate, and begged for your kindness, sir. Allow."
With that said, Claire raised her head, with a look of anticipation in her eyes.
"Wait a minute." Alec interrupted the architect Jude Evans with a gloomy face. Except for the lady sitting next to Alec who was bored, everyone present focused their attention on Alec's words. on him.
He looked up, fixedly looked at Jude's assistant Stephen Wilson, and said in a threatening tone: "I don't want to see this young gentleman again, if your firm wants to continue working for me."
