Reborn Scarlett's happy life

On the morning of May, Scarlett and Melanie took the train to Atlanta together. Charles had been called away urgently three days ago. Aunt Pitty said that it was Uncle Peter who sent the message. The shop in Atlanta met The thing is, in times of war, apart from the blood, there will always be some bad guys who want to take advantage of the fire to loot them. They are really devils.

Melanie still looked dignified. If she still had a little bit of girlish innocence before she got married, then within a short week after her marriage, Melanie Wilkes had completely grown up. The appearance of a woman, her gestures and gestures are all steady and skillful, and all this only makes Scarlett feel more intimate, the Melanie she is familiar with is like this.On the train, they couldn't help leaving Aunt Pitty aside, because neither of them was very interested in what she liked to say. Even though they pretended to be interested in listening at first, as long as Scarlett spoke Talk, and things would turn into the two of them talking, and that old kid Aunt Pitty pouting that they both had no conscience.

"Oh, Aunt Pitty, I'm so sad when you say that. If the train stops, I'd better go home." Scarlett said pretending to be sad, and made a joke.

"It doesn't matter if you jump down now, because Charlie will come to catch you on a big horse, my little princess." Aunt Pitty pouted, and she was amused by the picture in the end. "Gosh, that must be funny."

"You are real." Scarlett said dryly. She had never seen anyone as childlike as Aunt Pitty. Even though she was very old, she was really cute, especially When she was talking about Charles' past events.

"At that time, Charlie was only six years old. The niece of our neighbor, Mr. Opulo, came to visit. The little guy was only four years old and pink. When he saw Charlie, he rushed over and kissed him, and said he was cold. But little Charlie was so frightened that he wouldn't leave the room until he was gone." Aunt Pitty spoke vividly, and Melanie joined in on the incident.

"That night he was crying alone in the quilt. I asked him why. He hesitated for a long time before telling me that only people who like each other can do this. Dear Scarlett, you don't know how stupid Charlie is. " She rarely used this kind of words to describe others, but Scarlett could hear the intimacy in her tone, and she also agreed that she didn't know how intimacy her tone was.

"Indeed, he is a fool."

The silly boy Charles Hamilton entertained the three with his anecdotes, and all three were in good spirits until Atlanta.

Atlanta is a new city, only nine years older than Scarlett. Similarly, it has a kind of vitality compared to those ancient cities, and this kind of vitality is exactly what Scarlett has in her bones.After the war started, this city has almost become the place with the most arsenals in the South. There are many military uniforms that cannot be seen in Georgia on the street, but most of them are tattered. They are captured soldiers from the North. Scratching her head, Scarlett's heart twitched slightly. She thought of the twins and Ashley, and she couldn't help praying for them in her heart.

They waited at the entrance, the sky was as blue and clean as if it had been washed by rainwater, Scarlett looked forward to seeing each other, but she didn't want Melanie and the others to see that this wayward girl was shy sometimes, and if two If Scarlett knew about it a month ago, she would have stared at all this with wide eyes, thinking it was ridiculous.

"coming!"

Hearing Aunt Pitty's cry, Scarlett looked over with some joy, but no, there was no brown-blonde man in the crowd, but an old black man with a gray beard walking towards them. He was tall and stood tall. When she was in front of Scarlett and the others, she could only see the other person's chin, which was wrinkled a lot, but the whole person looked straight and energetic.

"Uncle Peter." Melanie yelled. Aunt Pitty tiptoed past like a child who saw her parents. Scarlett also yelled as she said. She had heard Melanie say about this man. Even though she knew Uncle Peter a long time ago and received a lot of help before, she still feels admirable when she listens to it again.Uncle Peter can be said to be like a father in their family. He doesn't talk much, but he does things decisively. He doesn't have the habit of being lazy and indecisive like ordinary black people. If he is not a black man but a white man, Scarlett I feel that the other party must be able to become a rich person, maybe even a high-class person.

Scarlett didn't bring Prissy with her when she came back this time, so the girl who can't always help should stay at home and help with some housework. As for grandma, God, she doesn't want to see her these days, because When she got to the train station, Grandma seemed to become more nervous about her, as if she would turn from a charming little girl into some kind of monster in Atlanta this time, if she hadn't acted like a baby with her mother, this would have The child may have been under her nagging.

"Where's Charlie? Uncle Peter." Melanie asked thoughtfully. She knew that Scarlett wanted to see Charlie, but she wouldn't ask it herself. Madame just smiled, she was so happy for them both.

"Something happened to the shop on the other side of the train tracks. He passed by, so let me pick you up first." Uncle Peter first glanced at all the people, and then he stayed on Scarlett for a while. The dark eyes were like some kind of detector, and the fact could be seen at a glance. Although he still had a calm expression on his face, Melanie knew that he was very satisfied with the girl Charles had chosen.Uncle Peter had said it a long time ago, saying that he could tell if someone was ready to make friends with just a glance. Of course he exaggerated when he was drunk, but Melanie still believed it.

They passed many houses along the way, and Scarlett couldn't remember the faces of many people, but their enthusiasm was the same, because after attending Melanie's wedding, some women talked about the incident at the train station in Atlanta. It was publicized among relatives, and Scarlett became a celebrity before she came to this city.When she was in front of the red house that belonged to Aunt Pitty, Scarlett felt her cheeks were stiff.

The wooden fence is milky white, obviously it has just been repainted, and there is still a bit of paint smell in the air. There is a large lawn and daffodils in the yard. This familiar house is right in front of her eyes. Scarlett is suddenly a little dazed. , as if going back to the past, until a panting familiar voice called her.
