But Marianne shook her head: "The weather is so nice today, I'm going to go for a walk!" She looked at Eleanor and smiled mischievously: "Mom, can Eleanor go out for a walk and we can't? "

Mrs. Dashwood was amused: "Well, well! Go!"

"Mom, I'm going too!" Margaret raised her hand to express her wishes.

"Okay, let's all go! Remember to come back early, don't go too far, and don't go to dangerous places." Mrs. Dashwood told them, and let them go out for a walk.

Su Li stepped forward and took Mrs. Dashwood's arm and walked up to their country house along the path. She took down the unfinished book on the window sill and sat in front of the fireplace in the living room to read it.Mrs. Dashwood was holding a piece of cloth, and she was making a new dress for Margaret.

The breeze came in through the open windows, bringing a burst of coolness, and the chickens and ducks raised at home were chirping and quacking not far away, bringing a little vitality to the cottage.

so good!

Su Li simply walked out of the country house with her book, and sat on a chair in the garden looking at the beautiful scenery in the valley.This kind of relaxed but not too boring life is much more meaningful than when she was Morgana.In the hundreds of years in the woods in her previous life, every day was nothing new, and time meant nothing to her.

Sure enough, the life of ordinary people is the best...

With a smile on the corner of her mouth, she looked at everything in front of her almost devoutly.

"Boom!" The dark clouds and thunder in the sky interrupted Su Li's appreciation of the scenery. She stood up and called Alice to take the tables and chairs in the courtyard back into the house.

"Mom, it's going to rain outside! But Marianne and Margot haven't come back yet!" She said anxiously, "I want to find them!" Getting caught in the rain is not fun in this day and age. Pneumonia and death.Especially for the weaker ladies, every time they are exposed to the rain is a test of their lives.

Mrs. Dashwood quickly grabbed her eldest daughter: "No, Eleanor, you can't go! Marianne and Margot will definitely run back when it rains! Meggie! Alice"

The maid quickly ran over: "Ma'am."

"Meggie, go to the kitchen and cook some ginger soup, and boil a few pots of boiling water. Alice! Go and light the fireplaces in Margo and Marian's rooms, so that the fires will be brighter!" After giving these words, Da Mrs. Shwood sat down at the table as if relieved, picked up the unfinished clothes and continued to make them.

Su Li sat at the table holding the collection of poems and looked at it for a while, most of the time her eyes were looking out of the window.Until he saw a man walking up the path with Marianne in his arms, Margaret ran behind them.She quickly stood up and greeted her: "Marian? Are you okay, Marian? Where did you fall?"

The gentleman who was holding Marianne put Marianne on the soft couch in the living room and said politely, "I think Miss Marianne fell to her ankle. I've seen it. It shouldn't be a serious problem."

Su Li nodded, seeing the drenched people hurriedly asked the maid to bring out ginger tea for them to drink while it was hot.She took Margaret back upstairs, asked her to change the wet clothes on her body, and dried the little girl's hair close to the scalp with magic without any trace.When she led Margaret down, the gentleman had already left, and Marianne was leaning on the soft couch with a full face and smiling foolishly.

"Marian! Are you stupid in the rain? Meggie, Alice, carry Marian upstairs and change her wet clothes."

Marianne was foolishly carried upstairs by two maids, and they could still hear her silly laughter from time to time below.

Su Li shook her head amusedly, then turned to look at Mrs. Dashwood: "Mom? Who is the gentleman who just brought Marian back?"

"It's Willoughby, from Allenham. He's such a handsome gentleman, he left without even sitting down so as not to dirty our sofa." Mrs. Dashwood seemed to like this gentleman very much, and her sentences were often Appreciate.

"By the way, he also said that he will come to visit tomorrow, Eleanor, prepare some delicious food!"

Su Li is not interested in men other than the colonel, so naturally she doesn't want to cook by herself, so she just nodded when she heard this and said: "Mom, Alice has already learned the few dishes I usually cook. , and the ingredients are all at home, so don’t worry about mom. But maybe tomorrow morning, Thomas can buy some fresh beef and cook steaks. The family hasn’t eaten beef for a week.”

Mrs. Dashwood nodded: "Okay, let Thomas buy some beef tomorrow, do you want to invite Colonel Brandon?"

"Then I'll invite him when I take a walk tomorrow morning!" Su Li's eyes lit up when she heard this.A mature man is considerate, gentle and humorous.Such a good man would feel sorry for himself if he didn't do anything!

Anyway, she devoted herself to these worlds just to let the man she likes live a happy life, right?

The next morning, when Su Li was still lying on the bed looking at the big leafy tree outside the window, she heard Marian's noisy voice, and then there was a knock on her door.

She sat up: "Come in." She looked at the person coming: "Alice?"

"Yes, Miss Eleanor, Miss Marian needs your help." She was a plump and pleasant maid with a flushed face.

It doesn't take a second to think that it must be about clothing and accessories.Marianne must have been tempted by Mr. Willoughby, the hero who saved the beauty.

She simply got up, put on a blue long-sleeved dress, her hair was uncombed, and she stepped out of the room in slippers. Marianne's bed was covered with all kinds of daily clothes.

"Marian." Su Li teased a little: "He even saw you in such a mess yesterday, what are you still struggling with? Wear this bright yellow dress to make your skin look fair. You can still wear it on your head Tie a yellow ribbon on it, it will make you look pretty."

Su Li quickly decided on Marianne's outfit and went back to her room. She rolled up her hair, decorated with roses made of blue ribbons, put on moccasin boots, and went downstairs.After eating a simple breakfast, she put on her shawl, walked out of the cottage slowly, and walked down the path in the valley.Colonel Brandon was waiting with his horse under the flowering tree by the road.

A brutal autumn wind blew, and the pale pink flowers on the book fell profusely on Shang Shang's head and shoulders.Su Li's scumbag suddenly remembered a poem——

Squandering flowers gradually become attractive, so Asakusa can have no horseshoes.

She stepped forward quickly and looked at the colonel with a smile.

"Would you like to ride a horse?" Colonel Brandon asked the lady in front of him as he stroked the black horse docilely standing aside.

"I think!" Su Li agreed without pretense, and with the help of Colonel Brandon, she sat sideways on the high horseback.As a female hero and female warrior, of course she could ride a horse, but it was the first time for her to sit sideways like this.She moved her butt strangely and found a more comfortable position.Straighten your back and look at the distant scenery.

Stand tall and see far.

"Let's go, Mr. Colonel, let's go to the place yesterday. I brought a coloring book and paint pens of Devonshire plants. There was a plant recorded in the book yesterday. I want to go to describe it."

Brandon held the rein and led the horse slowly to where it was yesterday, turning around to chat with Su Li who was sitting on the horse from time to time.The atmosphere between the two was extremely harmonious.

"Will Colonel Brandon care to lunch at Barton Cottage at noon today? My sister Marianne accidentally fell and was rescued by a Mr. Willoughby of Allenham yesterday. We intend to invite him to join us." Lunch. It would be great if you could come."

How could Brandon be unwilling: "It's an honor." The two led the horse and walked slowly back to Barton's cottage. Margaret, who was playing under the big tree, saw them first, and picked up the horse immediately. The skirt ran towards them.

"Eleanor, Willoughby is here, and she's talking to Marianne in the living room now! The two of them were reciting poems, and I wasn't interested, so I ran out to play. Colonel, shall we continue building the tree house? It was down yesterday." It rained, and the straw mat inside was all wet because the roof was not built properly. Fortunately, Eleanor promised to make another one for me.” Compared with Willoughby, who is quite gentle and gentle, Margaret obviously prefers to help him Mr. Colonel who built the tree house.

"Of course, my lady." Brandon said with a smile, "but I have to go in and say hello to Mrs. Dashwood first."

Margaret smiled and waved her hands: "Then come out quickly!"

"As ordered."

Su Li looked at the dialogue between the big and the small as if they were playing a double reed, and walked in behind Colonel Brandon.

A slightly thin man immediately stood up and saluted them.Su Li hurriedly bowed slightly to salute, and then put the books, paints and brushes in her hands on the table in the living room.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Eleanor." Willoughby sat on the edge of the soft couch, very close to Marianne who was sitting on the soft couch.Marianne, on the other hand, did not see her poor sister and Colonel Brandon at all, and was all about Willoughby.

"Hello, Mr. Willoughby." Su Li nodded and smiled, then turned to Mrs. Dashwood: "Mom, we're going out to help Margot build a tree house."

Mrs. Dashwood nodded, and stood up as well: "Then I'll sit outside for a while too!" She looked at Marian and smiled meaningfully: "Marian, treat Willoughby well."

"Got it, mom!" Marianne obviously understood what her mother meant, and the smile on her face became even sweeter and brighter.

Su Li and Dashwood sat on the chair brought out by the maid. She did some needlework, and Mrs. Dashwood picked up last month's account book and looked at it.In the courtyard, there were Margaret's cheers as she saw the tree house gradually taking shape, and Colonel Brandon's calm and powerful commanding voice.Here we go again, this spontaneous sense of calm...

She loves the laid back country life in England!
