Chapter 277 South and North
The life of the Hale family gradually got on the right track. Su Li chatted with Mrs. Hale every day, worked as a female celebrity, and drew pictures.Margaret helped Dixon with the housework she could, and she made new friends.On a certain day, she even visited the other party with a gift basket——
Bessie Higgins, formerly worked at the Marlborough factory, but seems to be recuperating at home now.
Su Li didn't ask any more questions, she only knew that she was a girl with a good temper and not exaggerated.
Everyone's life seemed to be getting better and better, but Su Li could tell that Mrs. Hale's health was getting worse day by day.She gave her the medicine from the previous world to recuperate her body, but it was a heart disease, and even the panacea could not cure it.
But Su Li couldn't say to leave Milton!Mr. Hale is the head of the family. His life here is gradually getting on the right track, and it is impossible to go to another place to start again!Not to mention that Milton was recommended by his friend Mr. Bell!Even his only current student was recommended by Mr. Bell.
Moreover, the most critical and realistic point is that they don't have enough money to continue running around!
The trip from Helstone to Milton alone had cost the Hale family more than half of their savings, and they couldn't afford another trip.
Moreover, Mrs. Hale's real heart disease is not the regional differences, but her nostalgia for her previous life.But the problem is that it is impossible for Mr. Hale to return to Helstone, and even if he does, he will never be a pastor there again...
Mr. Thornton called on Mr. Hale that evening, and we all sat down in the drawing-room to drink tea.Su Li took out Keemun black tea again, which made Margaret a little heartbroken. She didn't want to drink such good tea for the Thornton family at all!
They are so arrogant!Still a businessman!
The differences and mutual prejudices between the South and the North are too great. No matter what Su Li and Mr. Hale say, Margaret and Mrs. Hale cannot have any sense of identity with Milton.And in the same way, Mr. Thornton thinks that southerners are lazy and have nothing to do.
He and Margaret almost got into an argument over this!
In other words, they had already quarreled!To the ladies and gentlemen of this age, their verbal maneuvers are a quarrel.
Finally, after only a cup of tea, Mr Thornton got up and decided to leave.
Mr. Hale stood up and sent him to the stairs and stopped. He had to have a good talk with his eldest daughter and wife, so he turned to Su Li who was sitting by the fireplace: "My dear, help me see Mr Thornton."
Su Li put down the black tea in her hand, nodded, stood up and quickly went downstairs with her skirt in her hands, and caught up with Mr. Thornton who was wearing a coat at the door——
"Mr. Thornton..." Su Li stood still in front of the man, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "We haven't been in Milton for a long time, and we really don't know enough about it. But you can't do it without going to the South." Just say those impolite words so easily! The air in Milton is filthy, people live in a muddle, and we haven't liked it for a while!"
Su Li loves the south of England!I like it very much!She loves the vast green plains and lush forests in the south!Love her when the sky is long and the water is wide!Love her lingering haze on cloudy days!And Milton, besides a thriving business, she did not find it likable either!
Thornton lowered his head and looked at the little girl who was obviously angry but looked powerless because of her clear and bright eyes, white and delicate skin, and puffed red lips. No comments less than his faux pas annoyed him.
It's like a little girl pointing at an apple and saying: I don't like apples, I want strawberries!
So cute, how does this make him angry!
"Sorry." The words of apology blurted out from Thornton's mouth. He looked at Su Li with deep and serious eyes, as if he wanted to swallow people in: "I will try to understand the south, if I have enough time. Of course, I will also promise you that I will never comment on the South that I don't understand."
The other party died down, and Su Li naturally got up as a lady again. She held up her skirt and bowed and bowed: "I apologize for my words just now, and I shouldn't make any comments before I fully understand Milton. it."
Mr. Thornton looked at Su Li, who looked extraordinarily good-looking by the candlelight, and said a witty thing he hadn't said in more than ten years: "It's true that the air is dirty."
Su Li was really amused, and the atmosphere between the two relaxed.She watched the man put on his coat and held his hat in his hand, and asked, "Will you come again? Next time?"
"Of course, I will come again for the black tea!"
"Then I may beg you not to come too often, I don't have any more good tea leaves!"
Thornton didn't hold back, stretched out his hand and gently pinched Su Li's cheeks that rose from her laughter, then put on her hat, turned around, opened the door and went out to sit in the waiting carriage outside.
Until he got home, sitting in his familiar study, holding a quill pen to make decisions, he could still feel the smooth touch left on it.
As for Su Li, the consciousness was awakened by the cold wind that rushed in the moment the man opened the door!This man, this man!Simply, simply too rude!
She puffed her lips, went upstairs to the living room, said good night to Mr. and Mrs. Hale, and then retired to her attic room with its sloping ceiling.After changing into a soft nightgown, lying on the bed and staring at the dream-like ceiling decorated by her and Margaret, she was dazed——
Mr. Thornton's fingers are rough, rougher than Mr. Hale's hand...
But it was very warm, at least, much warmer than the temperature of her face, when it was touched, it warmed from her face all the way to her heart.But he looks so cold and unreasonable, there is even a hint of tyranny in his eyes...
He is a man of contradictions.
Su Li turned over and lay on her side looking at the small window. It was pitch black outside and she couldn't see anything clearly.It's like the situation of their family after they came to Milton. For the time being, they haven't seen the light yet.
However, she soon fell asleep with the warm fire.
She washed the curtains with Margaret and Dixon during the day, and she was very tired...
On Sunday afternoon, Mr. Hale took his cherished books and went to give a voluntary lecture. He was going to talk about church architecture today.Although in fact, no one is really listening to every one of his public lectures.
Moreover, when Su Li sent Mr. Hale out, she sensitively sensed the impetuous atmosphere in the air, as if something big or small was about to happen in Milton, which was originally not peaceful, which made people feel depressed and panicked. .
In the evening, Margaret and Mr. Hale went home together, but the expressions on their faces were not very good-looking.
Su Li asked with concern: "What's the matter? Did you encounter something on the way back?"
Mr. Hale put down the knife and fork, and there was still a small half of the food on the plate: "When we passed by Marlborough Street, we saw Mr. Thornton swearing at a worker, and even moved his hand! It was quite unkind! I I even wondered if what I saw was Mr. Thornton!"
"No doubt he is." Margaret said with a sneer on her face: "When I came to Milton to look for a house, I saw Mr. Thornton punching and kicking that poor worker and killing him. fired!"
"Why?" Su Li was a little puzzled: "Is he the only one who was beaten or everyone in the Thornton factory was beaten?"
"Only him." Margaret said something suddenly came to her mind: "When I was visiting Bessie's house, Bessie's father, Mr. Higgins, said that the worker deserved it, but I couldn't figure it out."
"It must be that the worker did something terrible. Although Mr. Thornton does look a little too shrewd and cold, but he is not a tyrant. He will never punch a worker who has nothing wrong for no reason. Kicked!"
"Ai'er!" Margaret suddenly burst into dissatisfaction: "I found that since you came to Milton and met Mr. Thornton and his family, you have always stood by his side! You must know that I am your sister !"
Su Li was taken aback, and then said seriously with a small face: "I believe in my own vision, and you should also believe that what your new friend's father said is not aimless. You can't look at the city of Milton through colored glasses!"
"I didn't! I tried my best to fit in with this Milton, but it's too bad!" Margaret was a bit devastated. When she came to Milton, she had to iron and do the laundry by herself. Curtains, chores, and put up with this bad air and grumpy Miltonians!
"Perhaps you should ask your friend what happened at that time. I believe she will give you the answer. If Mr. Thornton is really so cruel and merciless, the Marlborough Factory cannot have such a scale!"
"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Hale was troubled by the words of the two sisters, and she weakly stopped the conversation between the two: "Hurry up and eat what's on your dinner plate! Then wash up and go back to bed. "
Su Li and Margaret looked at each other, then obediently lowered their heads and ate the somewhat cold dinner.
Then the next day, Margaret, who was as stubborn as Mr. Hale, found Bessie and asked about the situation.After learning the truth, she came back and told Su Li frankly what she had learned: "The worker smoked in the factory building, which is strictly prohibited in every factory! Last year, 300 people smoked in the factory building. Started a fire and burned to death, and half of them were even children who hadn't grown up..."
At the end of the talk, she broke down and shed tears: "God! This is simply terrible!"
Su Li hugged Margaret to comfort her, but she didn't say anything to add points to Mr. Thornton. For some reason, she would rather Margaret didn't like Mr. Thornton!
The author has something to say:
My heart is tired, I seem to have nothing to watch, the movie I want to watch, but I can’t find it without subtitles, my heart is so tired, my baby is so happy...
Bessie Higgins, formerly worked at the Marlborough factory, but seems to be recuperating at home now.
Su Li didn't ask any more questions, she only knew that she was a girl with a good temper and not exaggerated.
