[Sense and Sensibility] Fascinated by you

Hathaway is thinking about how to use the white fur. She knows that many women like to keep the whole fox as a scarf, but she doesn't plan to do that. Wrapping a fox around her neck is too unsuitable. Ah, she was thinking of making it into a shawl, and the little pieces would be sewn on the cuffs of the coat and the hat.

She felt that she had gradually integrated into the life of this era. If she had just arrived, she might have left it behind after Mr. Bernie took care of it, but now she has completely brought it into a nineteenth century. The thinking of a girl, she will care about the lace of the clothes, whether the tableware is shiny, when the carpet is cleaned, these have become part of her life, and she is willing to spend her thoughts on these things.

Everything in modern times is getting farther and farther away from her, although she still retains a modern way of thinking and some good habits.But she did fall in love with life here, she loved being able to walk on her own legs, everything about Rockfield Manor, the quiet country life in Kent, and she occasionally missed her modern parents, only three Two friends, but that's all. If she was given a chance to choose again now, she might choose to stay here.

People will always choose a life that is more beneficial to themselves. In the final analysis, she is not happy in modern life. Apart from family affection, she has nothing to cherish. Although she will be sad without her parents, she will live on. It's more comfortable, after all, that family has been overwhelmed by her body, which is a kind of relief for both parties.

After thinking about how to deal with the piece of leather, Hathaway turned her mind to tonight's matter. She saw everything clearly and knew who she should accept. Andrew was just generous to others, and put Colonel Brandon's stuff was passed on to her.She also wanted to find a way to express her gratitude to the colonel, but giving back gifts seemed to show signs and not be sincere enough, so she considered making some meals to give him back.

Colonel Brandon would be lying if she said she didn't notice his presence, she wasn't a girl like Miss Hoffman, the first thing young girls notice if gentlemen are attractive and talkative, A mature woman like her looks deeper. She will pay attention to the temperament displayed by a person, and knows how to appreciate a strong figure and a charming voice.In fact, it is the mature women who know how to appreciate the beauty of men. They have got rid of the roughness of only looking at the face. Those calm and restrained gentlemen are naturally more attractive than the sunny youths.Although the colonel's face was not pretty, he had a dignified and serious expression, and he was thoughtful and thoughtful in everything he said and did, making him feel upright and reliable. He could be said to be the representative of the image of a British gentleman in Hathaway's mind.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Hathaway wondered, who would look for her at this time?Olivia wouldn't come to her so late to talk about music skills, and Winnis wouldn't ask her about those knitting patterns at this time, unless they were going to have a sleepover with her.

When she opened the door, she was a little surprised to find that it was her brother Andrew standing at the door.She is not very familiar with Andrew. When she came, he had already left home to join the army, and he had not heard from him for a long time, because the relationship between father and son was not harmonious, and the servants in Rockfield Manor consciously did not talk about it. He is a gentleman, he occasionally returns to the manor and always stays in a hurry for a day or two before leaving home angrily in a quarrel with his father, so the number of times Hathaway sees him is really very few.

Her understanding of this gentleman is only from the occasional words and a few letters he sent, so her impression of this nominal second brother is still that of a libertine, of course through this After a few days of contact, the evaluation has risen a lot.

She also knew about the grievances between Andrew and Philip. In the final analysis, it was just a vulgar love triangle in which the two brothers pursued the same girl. As for whether Andrew was swayed by the girl or Philip took the love, she didn't know.But Philip has always been a perfect brother in front of her, so she naturally prefers Philip more.

After sitting down, Andrew unbuttoned two shirt buttons very awkwardly, revealing his muscular and strong chest, and smoothed his messy and sexy hair with his hands.Seeing Andrew's embarrassment, Hathaway calmed down. She poured a cup of tea for the two of them, and then sat down sipping tea and admiring the handsome man.

Andrew brewed for a while, and first talked about the past with Hathaway, talking about his childhood.Little Hathaway didn't remember much at that time, so Hathaway only had a vague impression when she recalled it, but it gradually became clearer after Andrew told her.

It was the time when Hathaway was the weakest. The Viscount and his wife were worried about their daughter's health and would never let her go out to play. Philip was busy with his studies. At that time, Andrew was still a naughty and active boy, but he always took care of her. With my younger sister, I go to Hathaway’s bed every day to tell her jokes to make her laugh, and secretly take my younger sister out to play while the Viscount and his wife are not paying attention. Every time they are found, they will be severely punished, but next time Seeing the pleading eyes of my sister, I will take her out to play again, as a horse for my sister, or take my sister to fly a kite, even if I just take her out to watch others play, I am happy. At that time, the relationship between siblings was deep, Heather What Wei looks forward to most every day is to see Andrew and listen to him tell her interesting stories outside.

When Andrew was a little older, he was sent to boarding school by his father. After that, he began to go to various dances. In the army, the Viscountess, who was already in poor health at the time, was worried that she would not be able to fall ill.

In retrospect, apart from the Viscount and his wife, Hathaway actually had the best relationship with this brother who had been away from home for many years.Hathaway suddenly felt ashamed. Andrew really cared for Hathaway when he was a child. Viscount Butler has always disliked this son. She is also part of the reason, but Hathaway completely forgot about this and still thought about it. After Philip came back, Andrew left, but she completely regarded Andrew as a passerby.

After the pleasantries, the conversation is about to enter the topic, but the atmosphere at this time is completely different from the beginning.The stranger they were most familiar with when Andrew first entered the door, now even if they are not brothers and sisters, at least they are familiar with each other.

Then Andrew talked about the gentlemen who were guests at home. Mr. Hoffman was met by Andrew at the London dance in his early years. Although this gentleman was a bit serious and arrogant, he looked like an aristocrat, but he was a decent gentleman.

Mr. Marshall was just met by Andrew in London, and he was not very familiar with him. In fact, he strongly invited him to be a guest for Miss Olivia, and Mr. Marshall immediately agreed.Andrew didn't expect that he invited someone to be a guest for his sister, and the other party had the same idea.

Finally, Andrew talked about Mr. Wallace. He is the only son in the family, his father is a member of the cabinet, and the property he inherits in the future is about 7000 pounds per year.This gentleman, Andrew, spoke in the most detail. It can be seen that he has already found out everything about this gentleman.

If Hathaway didn't know what he meant when it came to this, then she could really buy a piece of tofu and kill her.In her heart, she was grateful for Andrew's love for her, but also felt very embarrassed.Could it be that her current state is so embarrassing that her brother, who has not yet married, is anxious about her marriage?Otherwise, what is the meaning of Andrew introducing a man to her in such a hurry.

Andrew is the most optimistic about Mr. Wallace among the several gentlemen. In his opinion, this gentleman has the most suitable conditions in all aspects. Moreover, after meeting Hathaway, Mr. Wallace also clearly showed the intention of pursuing him. He originally He wants to let things develop naturally, but tonight he has seen Hathaway's rejection of Mr. Wallace. Although he hopes that his sister can find a gentleman to marry, he has no intention of forcing her , so even though it was difficult to speak, he decided to come over to see Hathaway's opinion.

Poor Colonel Brandon was not in Andrew's consideration at all.

Now that Hathaway understood her brother's meaning, she didn't need to embarrass him anymore, she could already see that Andrew's expression became awkward again.She took up the topic, "Mr. Wallace is indeed a good gentleman. I think he and Miss Hoffman are very suitable. The two are cousins. Miss Hoffman is also very good-looking. They look very good. .”

Now Andrew completely understood what she meant. He was originally a free and easy character. Since Hathaway didn't pay attention to Mr. Wallace, he didn't say any more. He immediately said that it was getting late and asked Hathaway to rest early. , then pushed open the door and left.

Seeing that Andrew is so straightforward, Hathaway has a better understanding of Andrew's character, and feels that Andrew's character is very suitable for her appetite, and she loves this brother a little more.He is a completely different person from Philip. Philip is steady and responsible. He will take care of her silently and prepare everything she needs. Andrew is free and unruly. If you tell him your needs, he will definitely satisfy you , but will never force others.It's hard to say who is good and who is bad, as long as she knows that both brothers care about her, that's enough.

Thinking of the personalities of the two older brothers, Hathaway felt that they were two completely opposite people. They could get along well when they were young, but they must be full of conflicts when they got older. Even if they didn't fall out because of Elena, sooner or later they would Things fell apart, and even if the two were forced to be together, they looked at each other and hated each other.

It's not good or bad to separate the family so early, I just hope that the relationship between the two will gradually ease in the future, so that she won't have to be in a dilemma in the future.
