[Comprehensive film and television host British and American drama] Zai Su also wants to fall in lov

Colonel Brandon, who successfully survived on the battlefield, always has amazing sharpness and perception. He discovered the little girl's peeking at him and her unconcealed appreciation.This made him give him a thumbs up for his actions today.

After an hour and a half, several people stopped what they were doing.

Su Li quickly brought Colonel Brandon a cup of warm black tea and a small plate of small biscuits that were not greasy.

Dashwood led Margaret, who was not under the care of her sister, to the other side and sat down.The weather is very nice today, the maids set up tables and chairs in the courtyard, allowing everyone to enjoy the beautiful autumn morning under the warm sunshine.

"I think I may be a little bit out of touch." Colonel Brandon took a sip of black tea and said with some shame: "I don't know anything about the tree house, and I have little help in it."

Su Li smiled and said: "Don't be too modest, Colonel. If you don't understand, we female family members can't help much. And——" She turned her head and glanced at the tree house that had already set up the foundation: " If Margaret wants to, she can climb up now."

Brandon smiled, looking at the girl's beautiful face in the sun as if kissed by God, her heartbeat was even stronger than when Guingamp built the tree house: "Miss Eleanor, the weather is really nice, isn't it?"

Su Li burst out laughing, the weather and roads, the British always like to talk about these.

She nodded and raised her head slightly to look at the sea in the distance: "Yes, today's weather is really good. But is the weather in Devon always so good?"

"No, obviously not." Colonel Brandon put down the teacup in his hand: "I have lived here for many years. It is annoying and rainy at this time of year, but this year, maybe it is because Devonshire is welcoming your family The coming, so save face and give us more sunny weather."

Su Li couldn't believe that these flirtatious words came from this calm Colonel Brandon.She widened her eyes slightly, looking at the Colonel in surprise.

"Miss Eleanor?" Brandon was a little puzzled why the little girl had such an expression, obviously when Sir John said that, the little girl smiled very sweetly, as sweet as rose nectar.

"Uh, um, what does the colonel like to do on weekdays? After all, the time in the country is a bit too leisurely, isn't it?" Su Li quickly changed the subject, always feeling that the colonel who was so enthusiastic just now was because the way he opened it was not right.

The Colonel was keenly aware of something wrong again, but a few more words with Eleanor was enough to make his old heart beat fast: "Hunting, of course. I'll be with Sir John, and I'll make some appointments with John." Sir John's friends went hunting in the woods together. You know, the enthusiastic Sir John always has countless friends."

"I believe that with the character of the colonel, there must be many friends who can talk to you." Su Li said a little compliment: "You know, I think talking with you is a very happy thing." Especially you A voice as gorgeous as a cello was flowing in her ears.

Colonel Brandon laughed, with the reserve and calmness of a mature man on the corner of his mouth: "My friends are indeed commendable, and they are all gentlemen worthy of respect. It's just that most of my friends who are my age prefer to enjoy being with their families. fun together."

"Indeed." Su Li nodded in agreement: "The time spent with family members is the happiest."

Then, the two of them didn't know what to talk about.After all, this is the 18th century in Britain. Although it is a little more open than China at the same time, there are not many topics to talk about.

Mrs. Dashwood already knew exactly what her daughter thought of Colonel Brandon.Seeing the two men and women sitting on the chairs was a little funny, she said, "Colonel Brandon, would you like to show Eleanor around? You must know that this is the seaside. Although the scenery is very beautiful, we always I dare not hang out on the beach."

Brandon understood Mrs. Dashwood's meaning, and was ecstatic.He smiled a little wider, stood up and arched his arms in a gesture: "Yes, and I'm honored by it."

Su Li stood up, put her hands in the colonel's arms, blushed and followed the colonel's pace out of the courtyard.

"When Marianne and her mother first arrived here, they always missed Nolan Manor, but soon, we were captured by the supreme beauty here." Su Li adjusted her hat, the wind on the seaside was a bit strong, she was afraid that there would be no The fastened hat, which Mr. Dashwood had bought for her in France before his death, cost £3, flew away. £3 is enough for a country girl to buy a nice evening dress!

Colonel Brandon stopped carefully, and the two found a place where the wind was not so strong and they could watch the sea.Because there has been no rain in the past two days, the grass is refreshing and can be used for people to sit directly.He originally wanted to take off his coat and spread it on the floor, but his little girl couldn't wait to sit down.

"Colonel, is there any difference between the sea you saw on the way to India and the sea you see now?" Su Li fixed her wind-blown hair behind her ears, and turned to look at Colonel Brandon: "You know I've never been out to sea, I've only seen it in books."

Brandon's eyes were a little empty: "It's deeper than this, wider than this, and more terrifying than this. Once, our ship almost sank in a storm. Fortunately, the captain is experienced."

"Well, I dare not go to sea after what you said."

"It's okay to walk around the country. I believe that the quality of our country's sea-going ships is very good. The long-distance ones are not good. There is a lack of water and fruits at sea, and many people suffer from sepsis." He is reluctant to recall his wars. During that time, I felt that women were still suitable for dressing up glamorously and being held in the palms of men.

Su Li smiled, thinking back then she had wiped out several countries with a sword, okay?

But in this world, she just needs to be a lady who manages the house well, and those national affairs have nothing to do with her.Even after getting married, those financial matters have nothing to do with her.Ladies can't always talk about vulgar things like money.

There was a silence between the two again, but there was no embarrassment.

The blue sky, the green land, the white clouds, the blue sea - all these make people feel refreshed.Su Li took a deep breath of the sea-smelling air, grinned happily...

Colonel Brandon turned his head and saw the beautiful scenery, and grinned too.He felt that he was at least ten years younger today, and the heart in his chest was beating violently!

"Colonel, please have lunch at home." After a while, the two stood up and planned to go back. Su Li stood in the valley below the cottage and invited the colonel.As a man she valued, she felt that it was necessary for her to show off her superb cooking skills.

Colonel Brandon took off his hat and leaned forward slightly to salute: "Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

At noon, she made fish steaks, fish balls, fish soup dumplings, and potato stewed beef.

Margaret looked at the fish soup dumplings on the plate with bright eyes: "Soup dumplings! Yay!!!"

Mrs. Dashwood glanced at Margaret disapprovingly, and then smiled decently at Colonel Brandon: "This is our Eleanor's specialty dish. It tastes great. Colonel can try it."

"Thank you." Colonel Brandon scooped up the soup dumpling with a spoon, poked a hole in it with a fork, sucked the soup away, and ate the bun.

"How do you know how to eat?" Margaret asked bluntly.

Mrs. Dashwood and Marianne also looked at him curiously. Colonel Brandon turned his head and glanced at Su Li: "Miss Eleanor taught me how to eat before eating." There was a warm look on his face. Smiling, Su Li didn't give up until she saw her blushing.

Mrs. Dashwood already knew what her eldest daughter was thinking, so after seeing Colonel Brandon's performance, although she felt a sense of gratification that the lovers would finally get married, she was worried that her such a good daughter would marry only The old man, five years younger than her, was sad.

So, she coughed twice to remind the colonel to restrain himself a little.

"I didn't expect Miss Eleanor to be so good at oriental food. It's amazing!" Colonel Brandon, after all, had been on the battlefield, turned his head and smiled calmly. The thick-skinned Dash Mrs. Wood didn't even know what to say.

Su Li turned her head to look at Colonel Brandon: "The colonel means that I don't think my hands are so clever?"

"No, no, no..." Brandon realized the impoliteness in his words, and quickly apologized: "My wording was wrong, but I thought that girls who are beautiful enough would prefer to focus on female celebrities. Because in I have a preconceived impression of seeing the exquisite embroidery on Miss Eleanor's clothes in Sir John's Barton Manor. I am very sorry for that." Well, it's about dressing up.

That's a beautiful statement!Not only praised Eleanor's beauty, but also praised her exquisite workmanship, which made all the women in the family feel uncomfortable.

How can a man who can get into the colonel's position not understand the art of speaking, it's an easy thing to make people feel like a spring breeze!

The lunch ended in a happy atmosphere.

Although Brandon wanted to stay in the afternoon, it was not suitable for a gentleman to stay in a lady's house for so long, especially when there was no host to receive him.So, although he was very reluctant, he still abided by the gentleman's etiquette and left the Dashwood family.

"Miss Eleanor, if the weather is fine tomorrow, would you like to go to the beach in the morning?"

Su Li was slightly taken aback, then laughed, the invitation for a walk in this era is really tactful: "I do have this kind of plan, the morning in the country is refreshing."

The corners of Brandon's mouth curled up slightly, he put on his hat and rode his handsome horse and left the cottage.

Marianne and the others laughed as soon as they walked away: "Oh! Eleanor, Mom, did you see that? The Colonel is actually shy! It seems that he is indeed fascinated by our Eleanor!

Mrs. Dashwood pinched Marianne's cheek: "Go! Go back!"
