The two letters were from the body's brother and sister respectively.
She hadn't even remembered to write to the original owner's family when she first moved to Cranford until she received a forwarded letter from Milton.He quickly wrote a letter to his family and told them the bad news of Mr. Derby's death and the reasons for moving.Because of the train, the exchange of letters is much faster than before.
As soon as she opened the letter, she saw two checks for £50 and £20 falling out of it.In this era when the middle class can live comfortably with 50 pounds, how kind is the brother who directly gives his sister a year's living expenses!
Putting the two checks in her handbag, she picked up the two letters and looked at them. The meanings were similar.First, I expressed my uneasiness after receiving the letter for so long, then I expressed my sympathy for Mr. Derby, and then I exchanged feelings and briefly talked about the situation in my own home.
Su Li took out the paper from the drawer, took out the quill and ink, and wrote a reply on the small table by the window.
I first wrote about my longing for my family, and then wrote about Claude's cute, innocent and kind little angel and so on.Then write about my peaceful life and kind neighbors in Cranford.Finally, describe my thoughts on my family again, and attach the artistic candles I made in my spare time with the letter.
Craft candles dyed pink with rose petals in clear glasses look like a girl's dream.She remembered that Mr. Riley had an older daughter, 13, whom she was sure to love.Of course, my sister will definitely like this kind of small object with a girly heart.As for the gifts for other people in the family, she also prepared them a few days ago.The brother's is a hat, and the sister-in-law's is a piece of fashionable lace that she drew out herself.The brother-in-law has a pair of gloves, the two nephews have small wooden bows, and the sons of the elder brother and sister have a pair of gloves.After all, it was Jem, the carpenter, who did it!She bought it for fivepence.
After sealing the letter with wax, she put the prepared gift into a cardboard box, marked it with her name, and got up to send the letter.Every day at noon Cranford mailed letters from the townspeople.
"Gina, look at Claude, talk to him more, I'll send a letter, and buy a piece of beef and stew tomatoes to eat." Su Li stood at the door, put on her hat, and picked up the small parasol hanging on the wall , carrying a bunch of things out the door.
As soon as he went out, he happened to meet Mrs. Forrester who was going to get back the candlestick from Dr. Harrison, and the two happened to go together.
Mrs. Forrester held Lydia's hand and smiled gently: "How many words can Claude speak now? I can always see you teaching him to speak in the garden, oh, little Claude looks like Like an angel."
"He can talk a lot now!" Su Li counted them one by one with her fingers: "roses, big trees, cherries, mother, Gina, meals, milk, eggs, biscuits, fire... oh, he can It is my sweet burden!"
Forest's expression looked extremely envious: "It sounds awesome, little Claude will definitely grow up to be a great person in the future!"
Su Li accepted the compliment with a smile, and the two parted at the gate of the post office. Lydia was going to post the letter, and Mrs. Forrester was going to Dr. Harrison's house to get back her own candlestick.
After affixing stamps on the gifts and letters, Su Li took out the check sent by her brother and sister and exchanged it for cash, then turned around and left the post office to buy a piece of beef at the butcher's house and was ready to go home.
When passing by Miss Jenkins' house, she saw people carrying luggage in and out of Miss Jenkins' house. She looked up, and sure enough, Miss Jenkins was standing at the window with Miss Marty and Miss Mary.She waved, said hello, and then left again.
After Su Li arrived here, because of the pleasant climate and the relaxed pace of life, most of the words she spoke were in a soft tone, which left her a gentle image among the ladies and ladies of Cranford.Miss Jenkins, in particular, was an old lady who didn't seem easy to get along with, and liked her lady-squire air very much.She hated new things, especially factories and trains, and every time she heard about them she would get bored, so that people would stop talking about trains.The most important thing is that she is the spiritual leader of the entire Cranford family, and everyone imitates her unconsciously.So Lydia was popular with most people in Cranford.
Of course, the candles she made that are full of girlish dreams are also the reason for her popularity.She still remembered that the roses all over the yard were blooming at that time, and seeing the beautiful things wither always made her, who has become more and more like a country gentleman in this age, feel unbearable, so she tried to find a way to put the roses The flowers are made into dried flowers, scented tea and the like.But her yard is too big, and there are too many roses blooming, so she remembered all kinds of craft candles that were very popular on the Internet for a while in her previous life.She took Gina to do some, and it was successful once.She poured these little things into the clear vials left after taking the medicine and gave them to the ladies of the town as a May Day gift, and soon got an enthusiastic response.
During that time, every time after 12 o'clock noon, the guests of her house always came to her in an endless stream to ask her how to make the candle, and she also taught them all without hiding anything.It was easy enough to do, but the ladies of Cranford liked her all the more for it.
In the afternoon, she pushed Claude to visit Miss Jenkins's house. After a little greeting, Su Li asked, "I saw a new family moving across the street. Do you know who it is?"
"It's a captain named Brown, who has two daughters. Moreover, he seems to have a good relationship with Sir Charles. I heard that Sir Charles helped find this house." Mattie said what she knew.
Su Li nodded, not particularly enthusiastic, because she knew that Miss Pole would go door to door and tell the people in Cranford what she knew about Xiao Xi.
Sure enough, as soon as she got home and put Claude to bed to sleep, Miss Pole came to visit her home, holding Mrs. Forrester's arm.After making a cup of rose tea for the two of them, Gina picked up the half-made clothes and sat on the side while doing them and listening.
Miss Pole glanced secretly, and curled her lips in dissatisfaction.I really don't understand why you want to adopt such a young girl, you can't do much work, and you have to pay for it, and you are as soft-hearted as Mrs. Forrester.Unfortunately, what Mrs. Ball didn't know was that she adopted a teenage girl to save money for a maid.
Su Li took a sip of rose tea, looked at Miss Pole, and asked a question cooperatively: "Today, a family moved in across from Miss Jenkins' house. I heard it's called Brown, or a captain."
"It's Captain Brown. She has two daughters. It's a pity that the eldest daughter is in poor health, so she moved here to recuperate. The youngest daughter is the best girl. In order to help Captain Brown take care of her sister, she refused a door. Marriage!" Miss Pole talked about what she found out with great interest: "And this Captain Brown used to work under Sir Charles. But he has no property or investment, but he is still a half-salary Captain, he also needs to go out to work some time every year. But he doesn't pay attention to the rules here at all, and even shouted in the street with his loud voice that he was a soldier because he was poor so he couldn't afford the rent. Oh, this is so unruly! It's really disgraceful!" Miss Pole was filled with righteous indignation, and Gina stood up quickly and filled her teacup with rose tea so that she could drink a little to calm down.
Surya hid her smile by drinking tea.In Cranford, elegant thrift is in demand!
Like the last time Mrs. Forrester had a tea party in her little house, and her little adopted daughter came over and asked the sitting ladies to move to get the tea tray from under the sofa, and the guests all took it This eccentricity seemed the most natural thing in the world.Talking about family rules and etiquette as usual, it seems that everyone believes that the hostess has a living room for the servants, a table and seats for the servants, a housekeeper, and deacons.In fact, the hostess only had this girl from a charity school.The little girl's arms were too short and she lacked strength, and if the hostess hadn't secretly helped her, she would have been unable to carry the tea tray upstairs.At this moment, the hostess was sitting proudly, pretending not to know what refreshments the servant was going to bring.In fact, she has been busy all morning, making these breads and muffins, and she knows what she knows, and we know what she knows, and she knows that we know, and we know she knows what we know.
Everyone's money is tight, but no one wants to admit it.
Su Li thought this custom was very cute, so she followed the custom here.This is really a good custom, no one will cry poor, everyone is decent.
Miss Pole said above Captain Brown's daughter: "He has a daughter who looks not in good health, I think we should send some lavender over there so they can smoke the house and let the man The poor lady is in better spirits."
Su Li nodded: "Indeed, we will bring some lavender when we visit in three days."
Then, when she went to visit, she saw that Captain Brown's house had put a lot of lavender and other fresh flowers.This flattered both Mr. Brown and his youngest daughter, Miss Jersey.
Cranford is a very good place, Su Li looked at the flowers that almost filled Mr. Brown's house and confirmed this matter again.
She handed them lavender and a small basket of cherries, and said with a smile: "I also received such warm hospitality when I moved here half a year ago. In Cranford, we can always feel the same hospitality as at home." and comfort."
Miss Jersey handed the cherries and lavender to the maid, and nodded with a smile.Living here is indeed much more comfortable than living in the city.The air is good, and the neighbors are also very friendly.
Several people chatted casually, and Lydia told them Cranford's rules again.Although she knew someone must have said it before her.But whenever someone moves here, they always explain these rules carefully to people.She kept track of the time, and after 10 minutes, she got up to say goodbye.
The author has something to say:

So, there is a question, until the babies read this chapter, do you know who the old women are? hhhhhh
