=========================
"How did you get hurt, aren't you ready to tell?" She couldn't help asking.
Reid came back to his senses, and said helplessly: "Not long after I went out, I met two Yankees, and we had a fight, that's it."
It turned out that he really met the Yankees, and she shouldn't be willful.
"Where's that skirt, where did you get it?" She looked up at him, frowning slightly, her eyes tender.
At this time, she was already sweating a little, and when she was about to rub, he held her hand.
"Honey, it's fine." Rhett put the wine bottle away, pulled her into his arms and lay down, and kissed her on the forehead.
"As for this dress, I stole it from someone else's house, and it suits you very well when I see it." Rhett said with a bit of mystery, his eyes expectant, as if he hoped she would praise him.
He is becoming more and more lively now, and sometimes feels like a rebellious teenager. Su Lun can't laugh or cry, and cooperates: "There is nothing more suitable for me than it, I like it very much."
He smiled with satisfaction, and hugged her in his arms again.
Su Lun was lying in his arms and didn't fall asleep for a while, maybe because he slept too much in the afternoon, he was still in good spirits.
Because there were no candles, the lamp in the house was made of cloth and oil by Mammy Black, and it could only burn for a while.
She smelled his breath, looked at the dimming lamp, her mind was empty, she didn't think about anything, but she felt relieved.
"Didn't anyone see you when you went out?" Rhett gently stroked her face, his fingers were a little rough, bringing a slight frictional feeling, not painful, but warm.
"No, it's a good thing that Mammy Hei didn't find out, otherwise it would be hard to explain." In this house, Mammy Hei was as vigilant as a hound, and she would know of any trouble. Su Lun was once deeply surprised.
"Don't worry, I won't say anything. If I'm asked, I'll say it's a couple's affair, and I'll shame them to death." Reid turned to face her, and said with a smile in a complicit tone.
Su Lun was about to hug his waist, but when he heard what he said, he paused, patted him, and said angrily, "What the hell, thank you for thinking it out, before embarrassing others to death, you don't Will you die of shame?"
The lights burned to the end at this time, and the room suddenly darkened.The moonlight fell loosely on the bed from the curtains, and she saw Rhett's eyes sparkling, and her heart tightened.
Sure enough, he immediately chuckled in her ear, his voice was low and made her ears go numb.
Then he jokingly said: "Honey, you know so much, why don't you ask me what kind of taste I have?"
No matter what the taste is, anyway, what comes out of his mouth must be very evil.
Thinking of this, Su Lun's face became hot, and he buried his head in his arms, and said in a buzzing voice: "How do I know what it is, it's not a good thing anyway."
"Well, do you want to try it? I promise you'll love it." His voice was alluring and suggestive, as evocative as a hook.
"No, I don't want it." Su Lun immediately denied it, and added in order to be more convincing, "And you are injured, so stop making trouble."
"It's okay honey, my injury is fine." Rhett said
He took her out of his arms, rubbed her nose, and begged, "I can't sleep anyway, come on."
Is there anyone hotter than him?Under such circumstances, Su Lun was a little moved and did not immediately refuse.
By the time she wanted to regret it, he had reopened the bottle, took a sip, and passed it to her.
The smell of whiskey was very stimulating. With his temperature at this moment, it made her dizzy all of a sudden, and she gave up resistance completely.
After this night, she never dared to look directly at whiskey, and now she knows that whiskey is really versatile.
There are also many ways to drink it, drinking it alone, drinking it for two people, drinking it in different places...
The two messed around in the middle of the night, and the whole room was filled with the smell of whiskey. Su Lun felt drunk in his dream.
When the morning sun shone into the room, Su Lun woke up.
The two windows were wide open, and from time to time some cool wind would blow in, taking away the smell of alcohol in the room.
At the moment, the place in the room that smells most strongly of alcohol is probably herself.She smelled her arm, thinking that Mammy Hei would definitely find out, so she had to take a bath first.
She was about to secretly ask Pork to bring up a bucket of water, but found that a bucket of water had already been placed at the door, and she saw it when she opened the door.
This bucket of water must have been carried by Red, I don't know where he went.
She wiped herself down before going downstairs.
Passing the living room, she saw Ellen come out, and she saw her, and said with a smile, "Old John is coming through, he's just woken up."
Su Lun immediately went in to have a look and found that he had indeed improved. Although he was still weak, he was out of danger.
In the original book, he was killed in battle, and now he was rescued by her. The sense of accomplishment is indescribable.
Old John said a few words, and immediately fell asleep again.
Su Lun left the room and walked to the living room, instinctively looking for Rhett, she hasn't seen him today.
But she searched at home and saw Scarlett and Carrie, Ellen and Gera, Wade and Aurora, but she didn't see Rhett.
"Mr. Butler found a pig in the field. He and Polk wanted to bring it back. It should be still in the field at this moment." Seeing her, the black mammy immediately took the initiative to tell the news.
"Pig, Dad is going to catch pigs." Aurora ran over and said to her curiously.When she was two years old, she had never seen a pig.
No wonder everyone looks very happy, because they found the pig.
Now Tara lives entirely on the grain she hid, and can only eat coarse grains.Everyone hasn't eaten meat for a long time, yesterday Aurora and Wade were still asking for meat.
This pig can let everyone taste the meat, of course it is worth being happy.
Su Lun picked up Aurora, asked their direction, and walked to the field.Nelly had been taking care of Aurora, and immediately followed her.
They walked half a mile before they saw the edge of the field.There are traces left by the army along the way, deep ruts, traces of camp fires, crushed cotton and corn seedlings...
The air was silent, and what the war left behind was not only poverty but also fear.
The Fontaine's house and Tarryton's house were very remote, so they should not have been affected, but no one dared to come out to see them, because they were worried that the Yankees would appear.
Thinking of this, Su Lun frowned.
Their concerns are not unreasonable, because in the original book Scarlett encountered the Yankees twice.
For the first time, Scarlett meets a lone Yankee who steals Ellen's sewing box.Scarlett was terrified, but she bravely killed him, using Charles' gun.
Melanie was there, emerging in the hallway, frail and postpartum, with Charles' saber in her hand, ready to kill him.
The two southern women reached an agreement at that moment, perhaps, they can become friends because of the same strong and brave.
The second time I met the Yankees, it was Sally Munro who came to inform me.A small group of Yankees came to Tara to sweep away the chickens, ducks and food, and Tara fell into a more serious famine.
So what now?The Yankees don't know when they will appear, and if you meet them, it will be dangerous.
Now that the war has been fought, the Northern Army has completely torn away its gentle appearance and showed a ruthless side.
At this time, Atlanta must be an empty city, because Sherman wants to impose military control on it and drive everyone out of the city overnight.
There was heavy rain in Atlanta last night, many people will get sick, and if there is not enough medicine, many people will die.
With such a leader, the following army can be imagined.Wherever they went, there was a mess, burning, killing, looting and everything.
Tara's food was scarce, if it was taken away again, everyone would be hungry, she should have prepared earlier.
"Ma'am, are you tired, or should I give you a hug?" Nellie said timidly.
Nellie is a single white man of civilian origin.From the beginning of the war, she was very worried that Su Lun would abandon her, so she always tried her best to show her hard work.
Su Lun came back to his senses and felt that his hands were indeed sore, so he gave Aurora to her, and then continued walking.
The field that Mammy Black mentioned arrived soon. It used to be a corn field, but the top was bare, and the Yankees had snatched it all up.
At this time, on the left side of the field, there was a pig cry.From this voice, one can hear its desperation and unwillingness.
She looked up and saw Rhett leaning over and tying the pig's neck with a rope as thick as a finger.The pig looked a little fat, and it was firmly held in his hand at the moment.
Next to this pig, there are four little piglets.It seems that this is a sow who has just calved.
Pork had one piglet under his arm and was about to grab a second.
Seeing that Rhett had caught the sow so quickly, he immediately grinned and said, "Mr. Butler, you really have a trick. If it were me, I would have nothing to do with this beast."
"To deal with it, you must be fast and don't hesitate, otherwise you will never catch it." Reid looked up as he spoke, and saw Su Lun standing on the ridge of the field, looking at him with a smile.
"Honey, look what I caught, Aurora has some meat to eat." Rhett laughed triumphantly.
The sun shines on his face, and the sweat reflects the dazzling light, but what is more dazzling than the sun is his high spirits.
"I have to say, you did a great job on this matter. I saw that everyone was beaming just now, and they must have been waiting for us." Su Lun praised him with a smile, and the corner of his mouth rose again, Following her order, the pig was pulled up the field ridge.
"Pig." Aurora saw this huge beast, and wanted to catch it ignorantly.
"Baby, you can't catch it, it will bite you." Su Lun quickly grabbed Aurora who was struggling from Nellie, speechless at her stupidity and boldness.
"Little princess, let's go back and play again, it's too hot outside." Rhett also coaxed her.
Aurora calmed down, and everyone returned to Tala with a rich prey, and was warmly welcomed by everyone.
The sow was immediately ordered by Gera to kill and eat meat, and Pork immediately carried out the order, so everyone ate the long-lost meat.
As for the other four little pigs, they plan to raise them to be bigger.Su Lun took the opportunity to propose to build a fence in the vegetable field and raise the pigs there.
It wasn't far from Tara, but it was invisible from Tara, and the pigs couldn't be taken away if the Yankees came.
Everyone, disgusted and horrified by the Yankees, accepted the offer.
Then Ellen proposed to visit the neighbors nearby and send some food and meat if they were in trouble.
Tara's original horse has long been requisitioned by the army, and they have not communicated with their neighbors for a long time.The horse brought back by Su Lun just came in handy and could take them wherever they wanted to go.
This is the custom in the south, the leaders and intermediaries help each other.In the original book, Scarlett also received food from Fontaine's family and survived the initial famine.
But that is meat. The meat is so precious at this time, should I give it to others?
Scarlett complained about this, and Su Lun didn't want to give food to others, but she relaxed when she remembered that Lingju was richer than them in the original book.Rhett looked around at Ellen and Su Lun, smiled thoughtfully, and said nothing.
No matter what everyone thinks, there is no objection.Ellen and Gera are staunch enforcers of the old customs, and if they dare to object, they will be severely educated.
The matter was finally decided and executed by Su Lun and Rhett.
Originally, Jie La planned to go by herself, so she rode Su Lun's horse.In his mind, he was a man, and it was his duty to go out and take risks.
But Rhett immediately objected, saying that he was younger and should let him go.
But Gera immediately retorted, saying that he didn't know the way, and everyone didn't know him, so it was useless to go there.
Seeing this, Su Lun immediately said that he would go with him.They could ride a horse, and she knew the way.
Su Lun was eager to know what was going on outside, so he took this opportunity.
"How did you get hurt, aren't you ready to tell?" She couldn't help asking.
Reid came back to his senses, and said helplessly: "Not long after I went out, I met two Yankees, and we had a fight, that's it."
It turned out that he really met the Yankees, and she shouldn't be willful.

He is becoming more and more lively now, and sometimes feels like a rebellious teenager. Su Lun can't laugh or cry, and cooperates: "There is nothing more suitable for me than it, I like it very much."
He smiled with satisfaction, and hugged her in his arms again.

"It's okay honey, my injury is fine." Rhett said
He took her out of his arms, rubbed her nose, and begged, "I can't sleep anyway, come on."
Is there anyone hotter than him?Under such circumstances, Su Lun was a little moved and did not immediately refuse.
By the time she wanted to regret it, he had reopened the bottle, took a sip, and passed it to her.
