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

This strike seems to be over, but Thornton still has a lot to do!He didn't hold back Su Li's hand and restrainedly kissed the back of her hand, then turned around and left quickly to deal with the follow-up matters.

On the second day, Thornton delivered fresh fruit, purple grapes cleaned and packed in beautiful plates, which looked more like art than casual food.

Fresh fruit is not easy to come by in Milton!Not to mention the grapes that are not easy to preserve!In this era, transportation has always been a big problem. Although there are trains, for Putao, the train takes a lot of time!

Su Li grabbed a small bunch of grapes and ate them contentedly, and agreed to Mr. Hale's request to go to Thornton House to express her gratitude in person tomorrow.She couldn't be happier to see Mr. Thornton!How could it be possible to object!

The next morning, Su Li changed into a bright green dress, put on a hat, and took Margaret out the door with a basket containing small desserts she made herself.She also had a basket in her hand, but she was not going to the Marlborough factory with Su Li, she was going to visit Bessie Higgins, who was getting worse and worse.

"Miss Alberta." Mrs. Thornton looked Su Li up and down, her face was still not very good-looking, and she motioned: "Please sit down."

Su Li went to sit opposite Mrs. Thornton and Miss Fanny Thornton, which was a bit of a confrontational gesture.It should not appear in a relatively warm environment like a small living room.But Mrs. Thornton has this charm, she can make any meeting so serious, as if the next second is going to war!

"Thank you for the fruit, it's delicious!" Su Li came to thank, of course she had to give a few polite compliments first: "It's unexpected to be able to enjoy such fresh grapes in Milton!"

"It's nothing in our family." Mrs. Thornton said proudly, but in fact, in Thornton's family, fresh grapes are not so easy to eat!Delicate grapes are not long-lasting oranges.These grapes are not easy to come by, and the price is not low.Their family didn't get much, and a small half was sent out by Thornton.

Mrs. Thornton, who came here from poverty, was actually a little reluctant.She was more than happy to give the grapes to the Thorntons' partners than to the Hales, who were of little help to the family.

Su Li smiled and expressed her gratitude again sincerely: "It's our honor to meet you." Then, she changed the subject: "Which tailor shop did the lace on Miss Fanny's dress draw? It's so beautiful?" Of course, this It's just a topic, in fact, the lace is just average.But she could see that Miss Fanny Thornton was showing off.

Sure enough, Fanny's eyes lit up when she said this!She happily got up and turned around so that the lace on her skirt could be displayed perfectly in front of Su Li: "I drew this by myself! It only took one day to complete it! How is it? Isn't it great?"

"Indeed." Su Li took a sip of black tea and agreed.In Milton, there are only a few ladies who are free to do lace.Moreover, if the little girl hooked it herself, then the craftsmanship can indeed be called good!

The few people chatted without nutrition for 15 minutes, just in time for a cup of black tea, Su Li got up to leave, leaving behind the dessert she made herself.Then, Mr. Thornton, who came back late, swept him away.

Mrs. Thornton let out a long sigh when she learned about it from the servant the next day.Then cheer up and start counting!It doesn't cost much to hold a wedding, but the wedding rings and clothes take a lot of time.

When she was talking about it with her son, she got a surprised look from Mr. Thornton: "Wedding? What wedding?"

"Of course you and Miss Alberta Hale!"

Thornton showed a rare panic, looking at his mother and even feeling a little helpless: "But I haven't proposed to her yet!"

Mrs. Thornton counted the expenses with a quill, and replied without raising her head, "Then ask!"

"Mom, don't you feel a little too anxious?"

"I don't think so." Mrs. Thornton looked up at her son, with a serious face and a bit of coldness: "I found that Mrs. Hale's health is not very good. Of course, things like weddings should happen sooner." The better. Otherwise when do you want to wait? After Mrs. Hale's death?"

When Thornton heard his mother's words, he suddenly remembered seeing the girl's red eyes on the day of the strike, and she thought she also knew about Mrs. Hale's physical condition.Otherwise, such a smiling little girl would never have acted so weakly.

But in the end, he just clenched his fists and proposed immediately without listening to his mother.

Too hasty!

Bessie Higgins died silently, and Margaret looked a little dazed when she came back. The death of her best friend in Milton undoubtedly made her extremely uncomfortable!Then she saw Mrs. Hale, who was lying on the bed in a state of desperation, and she felt even more sad!

She doesn't like Milton!

Aunt Xiao sent a letter, inviting them to go to the exhibition together. To be honest, Su Li didn't have much interest.But Mrs. Hale was glad that her daughter could leave Milton for some necessary social activities in more prosperous places.

So, Su Li and Margaret came to London together to visit the exhibition.

There, she met Mr. Thornton, who was talking confidently and freely in front of people.The women's attention is on the exquisite fabrics, but the men obviously put their eyes more on the machine!Things that can bring money can win the favor of many ambitious men.

It's just that Mr. Thornton didn't stay long and returned to Milton, while Su Li and Margaret stayed in London for several days, enjoying the atmosphere in London, which is actually not much better than Milton. The amiable Aunt had a happy day.

But once back in Milton, they got bad news!

Mrs. Hale's body - it's gone...

One night in October, Margaret and Dixon were upstairs tending to Mrs. Hale, who was seriously ill, while Su Li sat downstairs looking through herbs, trying to make Mrs. Hale's last days as peaceful as possible. It's better.

"Boom boom boom——"

Su Li looked up at the door, why would someone knock on the door at this hour?

"Fred!" Seeing the person coming, Su Li cried out in surprise!She stepped forward and fell into the arms of the visitor: "Have you received the letter from us? How could it be so fast?"

"Letter?" Frederick was a little puzzled: "I didn't receive the letter." Of course, this is not the point.He held Su Li's shoulder and asked anxiously, "How is Mom?"

Hearing this, Su Li was silent for a while, trying to bring up a smile: "Alive..."

While the two were talking, Mrs. Hale, who heard a knock on the door upstairs, came down and excitedly hugged her son whom she hadn't seen for many years!

The next day, Mr. Thornton brought some fresh fruit and wanted to visit the Hale family, but because of Frederick, Margaret didn't let him in.But Su Li, who was talking to Fred upstairs, saw his leaving figure sharply, got up and pulled the shawl by the door, opened the door and chased after him——

"Mr. Thornton!" The man's steps were a bit big, and it was difficult for her to chase him.

"Eir—Miss Berta." Thornton restrained himself from calling out his nickname, and he didn't have a habit of inquiring into other people's family affairs.It's just that the clothes he saw by the door belonged to young men, which made him a little wary.

Su Li believed in Mr. Thornton's character, and she came to a quiet corner holding the man's hand: "My brother, I came back from Spain to visit my mother, but I hope you don't make a fuss about Mr. Thornton. Frederick is a brave man." Man, but in England, on the bright side, he's not a hero..."

Thornton nodded knowingly, but he didn't continue to ask. Every family has their own suffering.He caressed the girl's face, and hung the girl's hair that fell to her cheeks from running behind her ears: "If you need help, remember to come to me."

Su Li nodded with a smile, let go of the man's hand and hurried home.Frederick didn't know how many days she could stay here, she had to hurry up and spend time with him!He is a very good elder brother. He was indeed a little too impulsive when he was young, but now he has suffered.Not being able to be with his family is already the greatest punishment for him!

Mrs. Hale's health did not improve because of her son's return, and she left them forever in the cold October of England within a few days of Fred's return home...

To make matters worse, an old acquaintance from Helstone came to Milton to meet Dixon shopping in the street.Although Dixon responded quickly and said that he was here to visit his sister, Frederick must leave Milton immediately and leave England!He couldn't even attend Mrs. Hale's funeral!

The reckless justice of youth brings not only inner satisfaction, but also endless troubles and sorrows.The man who finally returned home obviously did nothing wrong but fled in a hurry like a criminal!

They bought a late-night train ticket and put him on a train to London, where he would leave England by boat for Spain.There is his fiancée, new family and a new future!One day, he will come back!

They buried Mrs. Hale, and only a few people came to church, Margaret's friends, and the Thorntons.

Mrs. Thornton still looked serious and unapproachable, but she came over and kissed Su Li's face, which was pale with grief.He said stiffly what should be quite warm: "Alberta, I will take care of you."

"Thank you." Su Li tried her best to smile, then lowered her head very quickly and swallowed back her tears.

After the funeral, the body of Boucher, the worker who had stoned Mr Thornton on the day of the strike, was found.He left behind his wife and his six children, but within two days, his wife followed him, leaving only the six children who became orphans...

Milton was growing colder.

The author has something to say:

I recently looked through my memory and found that I have watched a lot of American chick movies. I have to say that the beauties in the past are much better than the current ones.
