[Gone with the Wind] Parallel Time and Space

Chapter 30 Night Chapter

The entire Tara was completely redecorated, and within a hundred miles, they could only find the priest who attended Scarlett's last wedding.The priest expressed his willingness to witness the marriage for the two, because God is tolerant, even Rhett Butler is no exception.Meanwhile, as usual, he pondered whether to say at the wedding the phrase "is there any objection to the couple's union," but he was vaguely asked by Mr. Butler to skip the paragraph. "Oh, well, in that case..."

The wedding was very grand, and many relatives and friends came reluctantly because of the O'Haras' sake, but when they received very thoughtful service, that little reluctance turned into a blessing.After all, this is not a deep hatred. Now that Mr. Butler married Scarlett, he might change his mind.

Everyone in Tara Manor was present. On such a happy day, even those who have some thoughts should hide those small thoughts in their hearts.Mammy never consented to the marriage, but she wouldn't take it out on Scarlett, especially on a day like this, when she said something inappropriate at the wedding of her dear darling, Miss Ellen's daughter, and all Dislikes will be borne by Scarlett's husband in the future.And Ashley, Scarlett's life, or more precisely, her decisions, never mattered to him.Even if he actually disapproved of the marriage, being an old southern gentleman he couldn't say anything.Even Gerald was rarely sober. He stroked Scarlett's hair and said blessings. As for who his daughter would marry, he didn't know for the time being.

……

As for today's protagonists, Scarlett and Rhett, both of them had happy smiles on their faces. Rhett Butler felt that he had never been so happy.

That day, the sky was blue and the breeze was gentle.

"I, Rhett Butler, takeyou, Scarlett O'Hara, tobemylawfullyweddedwife, toh□□eandtohold, fromthisdayforward,forbetter,forworse,forricher,forpoorer,insicknessandinhealth,untildeathdouspart."

Rhett Butler was wearing a well-tailored tuxedo, a classic white shirt, and a small and delicate black butterfly tie. At this moment, his face was serious, and even the smile in his eyes never showed half of it.He never disdained solemn occasions, but not this time, it was a wedding with his lover.Every sentence, every oath he firmly remembered in his heart, it was no longer a few meaningless ordinary sentences for him.Now, they have become his responsibility and responsibility.

"I, Scarlett O'Hara, takeyou, RhettButler, tobemylawfullyweddedhusband, toh□□eandtohold, fromthisdayforward,forbetter,forworse,forricher,forpoorer,insicknessandinhealth,untildeathdouspart."

Scarlett O'Hara wore a white wedding dress, the classic waistline design set off her better figure, and her trailing tail was scattered on the blue grass.She said the oath in her mouth, and she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes or the corner of her mouth. She felt an unprecedented sense of happiness, which was a special, unspeakable emotion.

Immediately afterwards, it was the priest's stage again.

"Youh□□edeclared your consent before the Church. May the Lordin his goodnessstrengthen your consent and fill you both with his blessings. What Godhas joined, men must not divide. Amen."

That day, the sky was blue and the breeze was gentle.

Other than being tired, everything was perfect, so perfect that Scarlett kept talking about it during their honeymoon in New Orleans.

"Honey, you're not implying that I'll have another wedding?" Rhett brushed away a strand of fine hair from Scarlett's face, teasingly said, "I'm very happy."

"That's not it." Scarlett leaned on Rhett's chest, she denied it with a coquettish smile.oh!I will not refuse such a wedding several times.

"Get up, Rhett, there will be a dance tonight." Scarlett jumped up from the bed at once, and she grabbed Rhett's hand hoping to pull him up too.

"But it's still morning, baby," Rhett said, laughing, but followed her up.

"You said you were going to take me to that restaurant on the corner, the food is amazing, I'm going to have prawn risotto, drunken pigeon, crispy oyster pie, chicken liver with mushroom giblets, orange sweat roast Fish and more." She counted on her fingers, her smile genuine and genuine. "Besides, we've got to do the shopping, and we've got to bring everyone presents, and I've got to change into a dress before I go to the ball."

Rhett seemed to see the six-year-old Scarlett, mischievous, lively, and lively. He was stunned, and he felt this wonderful sense of happiness born from the heart.

Scarlett realized that Rhett didn't answer herself at this time, she looked at him, and the man's eyes were so tender that they were about to drown.

During the day, he takes her to eat, eat whatever he likes, and eat as much as he wants.He knows what to order and how to cook it.New Orleans wine, wine and champagne were new to her, and she drank them with pleasure, for the only things she had ever drank were homemade blackberry wine, wild wine, and Aunt Pitty's never-drunk brandy.He also took her shopping, any fashionable gadgets, and any expensive classic clothes for her, and he bought them all he liked.The color, material and style of the clothes are all selected by him.Skirts held up by hoops are out of fashion now, and the popular style is very novel. The skirt is gathered from the front to the back at the waist pad, which is decorated with garlands, bows, and wavy lace.

"I still like the kind of skirts held up by hoops, and these new skirts... well, Rhett..." she told him secretly. "The outline of the stomach is exposed."

It really made him laugh.He smiled and said, "Buy both of those styles. You're so cute, Scarlett..."

Scarlett doesn't see what's cute about it, but since Rhett is happy, let him go.

And those lovely little hats, they don't look like hats at all, but a flat little thing, slanted over one eye, with flowers and fruits pinned to it, feathers jumping when you walk, ribbons fluttering.The fine underwear made in the monastery, a piece of pajamas, nightgowns, petticoats...

"Rhett!" Scarlett stood in front of the full-length mirror and tied her waist. She called her husband, since she gave birth to a child, her waist could no longer be so thin. "Come here and help me."

Rhett rushed over, he walked behind Scarlett and put his arms around her waist, and buried his head on her neck and shoulders. "Baby, you don't need to cinched your waist so tight, it's charming."

"No, Rhett, be more serious, this skirt won't look good if you don't tighten it." Scarlett urged.

"Okay, okay." Rhett surrendered.

……

"You did it on purpose, Rhett Butler!" Scarlett didn't want to pay attention to Rhett anymore, she stepped out of the carriage first, and also entered the hall first.

Rhett was behind her, pretending to be innocent. "For your waist, I can only give so much strength."

He turned around and paid the coachman, who thanked the coachman in a low voice and expressed his apology: "I am so sorry, sir, that something has happened to my carriage and it has caused inconvenience to you and your wife. You served."

Reiter didn't care and said, "It's okay, there will be a carriage in the hotel." After speaking, he turned and entered the hotel lobby.

Rhett introduced several women to Scarlett. They were very beautiful, wearing beautiful and colorful gowns, with delicate hands, they didn't look like they had done heavy work, they laughed at everything they encountered, and never talked about boring serious things. Not to mention the hard times.And the men at the ball...

"Madam, do I have the honor to dance with you?" Sorry, as her husband, I don't think you have the honor.

"This beautiful lady, your appearance fascinates me, if I can dance with you..." She is my wife, you rascal!

"Iseeoceaninyoureyes, canIswiminit" that must be an Italian, full of nonsense!

Scarlett liked this very much. She danced with several men over and over again, leaving her husband alone.

ah!Rhett couldn't help touching his forehead and expressing his regret for bringing Scarlett. "Ahem!" He tried to remind those men who were scrambling to invite their wives to dance with his coughing sound. After getting invalid results, he decisively isolated Scarlett from others.

"Okay, sit here and eat something, you must be hungry." Rhett pressed Scarlett on the dining table chair, with some snacks in front of her.

"Hmm... well, I'm really hungry." But she only ate a small portion and opened her mouth very small because she wanted to be a lady.Rhett sat across from her and watched her eat. "Why don't you eat, Rhett."

"I'm fed up watching some lady put on a pose! Besides, I'm not dancing." Rhett drawled, his Charleston accent coming out again.

"I'm not pretending..." She thought for a while, and finally started to eat.God, she was really starving. Fortunately, the corset was not tight, otherwise she would have been strangled to death. "Don't be angry, Rhett, can you get me some more wine?" She drank all the wine in the quilt in one go.

"Drink slowly, you will be drunk."

Scarlett didn't think she was drunk... Of course, a drunk person would naturally not feel drunk.I am sober!she thinks.

When the ball was over Rhett had to help her out of the hall, and he found the manager only to learn that all the carriages had been dispatched.

"Hey, Rhett, would you like to give me a ride?" It was one of his friends—one of the ones who invited Scarlett to dance, and he declined.

He supported Scarlett who was staggering, and found it difficult to walk, so he stopped.He tries to steady Scarlett. "Stand still, Scarlett."

She nodded.

He turned around and picked her up.

The road was a bit dark, only the moonlight and the lights of the houses on both sides of the road accompanied them, and it was quiet.

"I love you, Rhett," Scarlett muttered on his back.

"What you love is the life I gave you." Rhett walked forward step by step with her on his back, he was a little thankful that Scarlett didn't wear a hoop today. "You love whoever can make you so happy."

"It's true, I love my father too." Scarlett's mind was still muddy, she replied. "But apart from my father, who would treat me as well as you? No one else."

"Before the war, when I was young, my life was very happy. I was very happy when the boys showed their attention to me, but I didn't know it at that time, I didn't know the feeling of fullness in my heart. Only when I felt Satisfaction, I didn't realize this until I felt enough." Scarlett's tone was slow, and her voice was a little hoarse. "And you gave it to me, my love."

"My heart," she patted her chest indiscriminately, "is very full, you filled it, Rhett."

Rhett couldn't express his shock, but at the same time, he also felt that his chest and heart were full.

"Ah, Rhett, let me down!" Scarlett struggled to get down, she grinned happily at Rhett: "I want to dance!"

She jumped up without rhythm and without order, she turned around casually, her blue skirt was shining in the moonlight, and in Rhett's eyes, her whole body was shining.

She is free, unfettered, turning, turning,

into his chest.
