"Of course not! Mom!" Marian quickly explained.

Su Li didn't understand Mrs. Dashwood and Marianne's disapproval: "I think 35 is the best age for a man. He is mature enough and considerate, and he won't treat a beautiful man like a younger guy. The girl has extraordinary enthusiasm. You know, I can't look down on a young guy without his life experience!"

"Eleanor..." Mrs. Dashwood looked at Su Li in surprise, "You never mentioned your thoughts to me."

"Mom..." Su Li took off her coat and hung it behind the door: "That's because I've never met anyone who makes me fall in love."

"Then are you tempted by Colonel Brandon?"

"No, not yet." Su Li shook her head, but added: "But he is the most tempting man I've ever met."

"I think Mr. Edward Ferrers who came to Norland Manor a while ago is very good. He looks very suitable for you." Mrs. Dashwood still couldn't figure out what her daughter was thinking, and mentioned another woman Young man who feels very good.

Su Li glanced at Mrs. Dashwood, and was a little surprised at the sudden appearance of the man's name. Naturally, she asked, "Mom? Who is Mr. Ferrers?"

Mrs. Dashwood: "...Oh! My God! You don't remember such a lovely gentleman?!"

Finally, Mrs. Dashwood gave up. Her daughter didn't remember that lovely gentleman at all. Can she still expect the two to be together?

Su Li smiled embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Mom, I can't always remember those gentlemen with no characteristics."

"Then what charm does Colonel Brandon have for you to remember?" Marianne asked this sentence after listening to the whole process.

"Hmm..." Su Li thought for a while, then shook her head: "I don't know, anyway, when I saw him, when I saw his speech and behavior, I remembered everything about him."

In fact, the main reason is that Colonel Brandon's voice is so nice!Voice control does not explain!

Mrs. Dashwood was helpless. If her daughter really liked it, how could she be willing to let her down.Besides, Colonel Brandon, besides being a bit older, was a rare gentleman.

"Okay, okay, mom doesn't care about you, as long as you live a happy life."

Su Li pretended to be shy and lowered her head: "Mom, Colonel Brandon and I are not together yet!"

"Eleanor, I think there is something wrong with your aesthetics." Marianne came to this conclusion with a serious face, and then dragged Margaret upstairs. She was exhausted all day today!

Su Li also stood up and went upstairs holding Mrs. Dashwood's arm: "Good night, Mom."

"Good night, my daughter."

In the next few days, the Dashwood family kept visiting the surrounding neighbors. Every family was so warm and lovely, and the Dashwood family quickly fell in love with this place.

On this day, they planned to visit Barton Manor again. Autumn was coming to an end, and they wanted to enjoy the crisp autumn tail.In a few days, we will usher in the end of autumn with cloudy and rainy weather, followed by winter with heavy snowfall.Respectable families would always choose to spend it in London then, where there would be balls all winter long, a favorite day for young men and women alike!

Wearing a slightly improved imperial tailoring, Su Li lowered her exorbitant waistline slightly to her ribs.The bottom of the chest always made her feel a bit too high, and women in Europe always like to lift their breasts so high that they almost touch the neck!

Putting on her coat and lace hat, she led Margaret, Marianne and Mrs. Dashwood into the carriage sent by Sir John.

When the carriage stopped, the gentlemen had already stopped by the side of the road. Su Li helped Colonel Brandon's men get out of the carriage, her face turned red in disappointment.For someone who's lived in the modern age, Brandon's 35-year-old just happens to be the favorite of the uncle fanatics.Not to mention that he still has the unique rigorous and sharp but restrained masculinity left over from serving in the army and on the battlefield!

The healthy blush on the girl's face easily intoxicated Colonel Brandon's heart.With the gentle autumn breeze, he was a little reluctant to let go of his soft and boneless little hand.Until I saw Marian who got out of the car afterwards, that face was so similar, even her temper was so similar...

Su Li naturally also felt the man's change, she quickly withdrew her hand with a bit of anger, and sat beside Mrs Jennings for the rest of the time, deliberately not looking at Colonel Brandon .

My first love!It is simply a disaster that has been left behind for thousands of years!

As careful as Brandon, he naturally felt the change of the little girl's mood, and he twirled his fingertips that seemed to still have fragrance.He glanced at Marianne, who was lively and playing with the ball, a pair of sisters with completely different personalities.

In fact, he can't remember clearly about his lover back then.If it weren't for his adopted daughter, that is, Eliza, who had an extremely similar appearance to her mother, he would have already forgotten the appearance of the woman he loved so much back then, right?In fact, as early as when he adopted Eliza, he understood that his love for her had long since disappeared, and the reason why he still remembered it was actually more regret for his incompetent self at that time...

He didn't want to see Elisa all the time, and when facing Miss Marianne, besides the embarrassment at the beginning, he also wanted to escape...

But Miss Eleanor, in just a few short meetings, he saw several different faces.

Lively, demure, sensible, considerate, and now such a petty temper...

How can one person have so many faces?

Moreover, every aspect is attracting him, an old man...

However, the most important thing now is how to calmly reconcile with the girl who is playing with a temper, he can't stand her smiling at others but her coldness when she glances at him.

Fortunately, the opportunity will come soon.

There is a grove of reeds in Barton Manor, and the withered reeds in autumn are just enough for the idle ladies to make some small objects such as baskets or hats and vases.So the group decided to go there on foot to pick some reeds and bring them home.

The Dashwoods were always missing something when they moved here, and they responded enthusiastically to Mrs. Jennings' proposal!As a result, when the ladies got there, they realized that none of them had any knives. The reeds are very resilient.

Su Li thought that she could use magic to help after she dispersed later, so she gave Marianne her knife.As for Margaret?This little girl definitely doesn't work hard, she's just playing, it's okay without a knife.

But what she didn't expect was that as soon as she found a place to squat down, a shadow covered her eyes——

"Colonel Brandon?"

"En." Brandon took out a pocket knife from his boot, pointed the tip of the knife and handed it over to himself: "Use this."

"Thank you..." Su Li turned her head in embarrassment, and put the reed in front of her with a serious and focused expression.

#Help!The two are too close, the colonel's masculinity is about to overflow! #

One reed, two reeds, three reeds...a handful of reeds...

Su Li looked at the large bag of reeds that Colonel Brandon was holding in his arms in embarrassment. If she was not careful, she would cut too many...

Mrs. Jennings looked at the two men coming back side by side, and said in a voice so loud that the whole world could hear: "Oh! My lovely Eleanor, do you want to weave all the baskets of this life?"

Mrs. Dashwood also looked at the bundle of reeds. No, the bundle of reeds was a bit dumbfounded: "Eleanor, we just need to weave a few baskets and hats."

"I just think that Margaret's little tree house needs some rain curtains." In less than two seconds, she thought of the reason.Although several elderly women did not believe it, Margaret jumped up happily.

Colonel Brandon quickly seized the opportunity: "I wish I had the honor to contribute to Margaret's tree house."

Margaret was really happy: "Of course, Colonel, you must know that there is only my sister and mother at home, and we have no way to build that tree house with only one servant. Then, Colonel, when are you free?"

Mrs. Dashwood said quickly: "Margaret..."

"Never mind, Mrs. Dashwood, it is my honor to serve the little angel." Colonel Brandon maintained the lively little girl.

Apparently, this move won Mrs. Dashwood's favor, and they started a cordial conversation immediately, and after half an hour, they had a good grasp of Brandon's basic situation.She thought about it, and found that apart from age, Colonel Brandon could indeed be called a good match.He has his own manor, and the manor inherited from his elder brother, not to mention the wealth brought back from India.Eleanor could indeed live a prosperous life if she married him.

But the problem is this age!

In this respect Colonel Brandon had the same scruples as Mrs. Dashwood.

But this is not a problem for Su Li, who has learned potions under Gaius. Even if Colonel Brandon is just an ordinary person without magic power, as long as he is cured of his hidden diseases, he will live a long life. Not a problem at all.

The next morning, Brandon came to visit Barton Cottage, and thoughtfully brought gifts to everyone.

He passed the flowers to Mrs. Dashwood, Marianne got a copy of music, and Margaret got an up-to-date map of the world.Su Li's is a complete set of paints, the best ones, which are many times better than the ones she uses now.

She smiled shyly. "I don't think I'll have the use of such top-quality paints in the country, and, I must say, Colonel, you overestimate my skills."

"No, I think your painting skills are enough to match this box of paint." He smiled and looked at Margaret: "Now, let me start serving the lovely lady!"

Margaret screamed happily: "Yeah!!!" She ran out quickly and called the servant at home: "Thomas! Thomas?"

"Yes, Miss Margaret." Thomas had already sawed off the excess branches on the book, and if the speed was a little faster, Margaret might be able to have a small tree house again in less than two days.

Colonel Brandon took off his coat, and his strong body under the white shirt vaguely seduced Su Li.

In this era, as a 35-year-old man, I have to say that his figure is too foul!
