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

Wan Zhener calmly accepted Alec's betrayal of her.

In the final analysis, even if Lisa always calls her Empress, after all, she is no longer the concubine Wan Gui who dominated the harem here, and Alec is not the Zhu Jianshen who was raised by her. Besides, this man has never made a promise to himself She thought his betrayal was both expected and reasonable.

However, even though she tried so hard to comfort herself, she couldn't calm down in her heart.

She couldn't understand how this man who said he loved her when he went out all day long, this man who smiled at her regardless of her cold face, this man who showed infinite pampering and indulgence to her, could turn around and become He made a different face and distributed his so-called love to another woman. What about another family?She really admired his acting skills. This man was not as simple as she knew.

Wan Zhen'er is a woman who is prone to extremes and is particularly proud.She knows that with her current ability, the best way to deal with this matter is to pretend she doesn't know anything, but as soon as she thinks that the person next to her pillow hides so deeply, the knot in her heart gets bigger and bigger, and she calls herself the concubine. She was used to it, and she had already regarded the humiliation and humiliation when she was a court lady as a shame she would always remember, so her pride broke out inappropriately.Maybe she is well aware of her current status, but Alec's doting and responsiveness to her in the past year made her feel wronged.

Just as Wan Zhen'er was struggling repeatedly between reason and pride, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Alec walked in.

Alec saw his wife sitting quietly on the sofa in the red velvet coat, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, walked over slowly, and sat down beside her.

He stretched out his hand to draw her into his arms, "Honey, Lisa said you were angry? Are you feeling better now, huh?" As he spoke, he habitually gently brushed her drooping temple hair She hooked her ears, and couldn't help but bowed her head and kissed her peach-like side face when it was over.

Wan Zhen'er lowered her eyes and let him fiddle without moving.

"What's the matter with you, my dear?" Alec saw that she was silent, and for some reason, the panic in his heart became more and more serious. He desperately wanted to see her eyes clearly, so he reached out and lifted her chin, letting her straight look into his eyes.

It was very cold, but it was as sharp as the tip of a knife, so sharp that he couldn't look straight at him who had a little secret hidden in his heart.

Alec panicked completely, he wanted to cover her beautiful but invisible eyes, and in fact he did.He covered her eyes with his hands in a panic, "No, please don't look at me like this, dear, your eyes seem to be looking at a criminal exiled by God, oh, what's wrong with you? Oh, I omg..."

Her lips moved slightly.

Before she could speak, he hastily lowered his head and covered her lips. He felt that what she said at this moment would not be what he wanted to hear. He didn't want to hear her answer, but his lips touched hers. Yes, I just felt cold and dry, and the rubbing of her dry lips made him hurt. He tried to moisten hers, as if trying to melt her cold attitude, but no matter how hard he tried, she was indifferent.

"Why? Honey, why don't you kiss me back?" He let go, and put on his usual pitiful look, thinking that she would slowly soften her attitude as usual.

But what Alec didn't know was that the more he behaved like this, the more uncontrollable the anger in her heart became.Again!Again!He always deceives her with such a stupid appearance!Little did she know that the more he pretended to be weak, the more she felt ridiculous that she was being fooled by him!

She slowly pulled down the big hand that covered her eyes, she was very angry but her tone was very calm: "Are you sure you want to keep pretending, Alec d'Urberville?"

Alec's heart skipped a beat, and he forced a smile: "Honey, what are you talking about?"

Wan Zhen'er felt that the man in front of her was very strange, as if she had never really known him before.I don't know when it started, but his dress has become closer to that of a gentleman in the upper class. His short hair is combed straight back, he wears a well-made suit with an exquisite pocket watch, and even his usual favorite riding boots have been replaced with shiny ones. He restrained his naughty smile and learned how to disguise himself with a fake smile.In just two months, he has become like this!She didn't know whether his nature was just like this, or he had a strong learning ability. The Alec in front of her was no longer the Alec she had just met.Just like Zhu Jianshen who has grown up, she can no longer figure out what he is thinking.

Are men like this, always unable to resist the temptation?

She suddenly felt very tired, without the strength to get to the bottom of it.Ignoring Alec any more, she got up and walked tiredly to the bed, laying down slowly on the bed, separating him and her with the bed gauze.

Alec stood at the same place helplessly, he had a guess in his subconscious mind, his whole body was cold at the moment, he felt that even the sunlight shining on him was gray, and he didn't know what to do.It took a long time before he moved and slowly moved out of the room step by step.

Lisa hugged the little guy who climbed up in front of her, and when she heard the sound of the stairs, she looked up at Alec slowly coming down from the top, she neither laughed nor satirized, just looked at him quietly.

Alec's footsteps were very heavy, as if filled with lead. Finally, he finally came to the sofa, sat down slowly, put his hands on his knees, and lowered his head to cover his eyes.

The servants around, except for Nat, who had to take care of the little guy, all went back to their room with interest.

Lisa hesitated for a while, then signaled Nat to watch the little guy carefully, and slowly walked to stand in front of Alec.

Alec didn't raise his head, and asked in a muffled voice, "You all know?"

Lisa gave a soft "hmm", and after a while, she looked at the top of his head and said tentatively: "You really have a mistress outside?"

It took Alec a long time to reply in a muffled voice: "...No."

Lisa thought she had heard it wrong, and exclaimed, "What?!" Realizing that her voice seemed too loud, she lowered her voice and asked cautiously, "Hi, would you mind repeating what you just said?"

Alec raised his head, looked at Lisa and said, "I haven't found any other woman since I married Tess, I can swear it."

"What's the use of telling me, you swear to sister Tess?" Lisa hated iron, she changed her attitude towards Alec's temptation just now, and sat down beside him carelessly, suddenly Feeling that there are still problems unresolved, "I heard that you have a six-year-old daughter? What about Miss Duter on Fleet Street?"

Alec was silent.

Lisa was so anxious that she stretched out her hand and pushed him, "What do you mean, do you really want to go on like this with Sister Tess?"

After a moment of silence, Alec swallowed hard, and replied in a low voice: "...Actually, I don't know if Annie is my daughter. Duter was dying of illness, and she told me that I actually She also has an illegitimate daughter..." He raised his eyes and looked at Lisa sincerely, "But I only found out about this last week, it's true, you have to believe me!"

Lisa was speechless, and whispered in Chinese: "I believe you are useful?..."

"What?" Alec couldn't understand.

Lisa rolled her eyes at him indecently, and sneered mercilessly: "I said you are so stupid! Do you believe that woman when she says she is your daughter? Does she have evidence? Didn't she say she was engaged in What kind of occupation, it’s not sure whose it is!”

Of course Alec wasn't that stupid, he struggled for a while, and then he hesitated to say the reason: "...Annie looks... well, she looks a little... like me..." He bowed his head in guilt, his voice getting louder and louder. Getting smaller and smaller, "And... the time is right..."

Lisa was completely speechless.If her future husband suddenly had an illegitimate daughter, who was also Miss Bao's daughter before him, she thought she didn't know whether she should forgive him or not.What's more, the empress is still a very dominant woman, she has even had the experience of killing her husband's children and even women many times, she doesn't know what the empress will do next... Thinking of this , The picture is so beautiful, she no longer dares to imagine it anymore.

She knew what Alec meant, and she hoped to tell the truth to the mother through her, but even if she said it, so what, the illegitimate daughter still exists, and the character of the mother who can't tolerate a grain of sand in her eyes will not change , she could only light a candle for Alec silently.

"What are you going to do with your new extra daughter?" Lisa asked sideways.

Alec was very strange, "She can stay in the church school all the time, can't she?"

Lisa suddenly realized.She suddenly remembered that because foreigners practiced monogamy, in fact, there were still mistresses outside, so illegitimate children also continued.For children born without God's blessing and father's expectation, they have no inheritance rights, and they will not receive any attention from their fathers. The practice of many wealthy people is to pay some money to the church schools for foster children every year, and then let go do not care.The reason why Alec arranged for the girl himself was only to prevent his beloved and afraid wife from knowing about it, but the irony is that the paper still couldn't contain the fire in the end.

Thinking of this, Lisa didn't know who to sympathize with.So, she could only suggest: "Mr. Alec, maybe if you tell the truth to Sister Tess yourself, it might be easier for her to get rid of her anger?"

Alec faced the question again, feeling heavy again.

In fact, he wasn't afraid of Tess losing her temper. What he feared most was that she didn't even bother to lose her temper, just like just now, as if... she no longer expected him.

Auston crawled up to his legs at some point, looked up at him with clear blue eyes, and stretched out his hand to hug him.

Alec felt a little comforted, he gently picked up the little guy and put it on his lap, looking at the child with exquisite facial features who looked just like his wife, his heart moved, and he suddenly had an idea.

"Good boy, your parents depend on you..." Alec gently kissed Auston's little face.

He wants to maintain the existing family, just like the flower language of the sorrel planted in the d'Urberville manor, guarding happiness, and love.
