[Zhongyingmei] Good men are to be robbed!
Chapter 35 Shipwrecked Love
"Ewinie, look at the next door, the one at the back." Brianna lowered her voice and approached Ewinie mysteriously.
Ewinie tilted her head slightly, took a quick glance out of the corner of her eye, and looked at Brianna puzzled.
"Don't you think he's handsome? He's pretty cute." Brianna smiled brightly by drinking tea as a cover.
cute?The man just now is really good looking, but his expression seems to be something unpleasant with the lady opposite, he is very aggrieved, how can he be cute?Ewinie looked at her cousin who was smiling like a little mouse speechlessly, and said, "That's Cal Hockley, the son of an American steel tycoon. The person opposite him is Ruth, whom he is passionately pursuing recently Bucket."
Seeing Brianna's excited look, Ewinie had no choice but to continue: "Mr. Hockley came to England this time to marry a wife from a noble family. You have also heard about the current situation. Many rich Americans bring A large amount of bride price is used to marry noble girls. Many declining nobles choose this way out of commercial marriage or saving the family crisis. The same is true in the family of Miss Bukett. Her father died and the family owed a large amount of debt. The company It’s also a loss, Mrs. Bucket is socializing around and wants to choose a noble son-in-law for her daughter to maintain their existing life. But it seems that this Miss Bucket doesn’t seem to like the son of a steel tycoon.”
"Ewinie, you are really amazing! You know everything!" Brianna's admiring eyes flashed, making Ewinnie dumbfounded. She took a sip of coffee and said, "Every day is boring, you always need something to wake up!" Isn't it time? If you are interested in these things, why not go to the dance at Mrs. Heywood's house on the weekend, you know that there is a lot of information on the social field."
Brianna nodded, and she glanced sideways again. Ruth had left the table, leaving only the lovely Mr. Hockley frowning and puzzled.
It was a crisp autumn day, and Brianna and Ewinie went to the horse farm to ride together.
"Brianna, you can invite some friends to hang out with you, have your own social circle, and don't have to worry about me." Ewinie has already chosen the horse and is feeding the horse.This is the largest racecourse in the suburbs of London. The visitors are either rich or expensive. Not far away, several groups of people gather together to have fun. Compared with before, they only have two girls, and they seem extremely lonely.
"Angelia went to Scotland for vacation, others, I have been to the party a few times before, I don't like that kind of atmosphere." Brianna looked a little distressed, then smiled optimistically, and looked at the party coquettishly Yi Wen Ni, "Cousin Yi Wen Ni, you don't think you despise me!"
Ewinie, who was wearing a silver mask covering her left face, smiled warmly, with a slight trace of melancholy that was hard to detect: "How come, the time with you is always so pleasant."
"That's good!" Brianna smiled brightly, her sea-blue eyes sparkling under the sunlight, she led the horse, and said to Ewinie, "Let's go for a trot, since I went to college, I I’ve never ridden a horse before!”
Yin Wenni led her brown horse side by side with her: "Then let's walk half a circle first to find out how it feels. I haven't ridden a horse for a long time, and I'm unfamiliar with it."
The two stepped on the horse lightly, pulled the rein and walked slowly for a while, then crossed their legs and let the horse trot.The scenery of the carriage is very good, in addition to the regular horse racing track, there are also secluded forest paths.
Brianna and Yin Wenni chose a small road with few people, and chatted while driving the horses, quite contented.
"Hey! Yin Wenni, look, it's them again!" Brianna suddenly said, even though she suppressed her voice, she couldn't hide the excitement in it, and said excitedly to Yin Wenni, "I don't know where he made this horse riding, People are more handsome!"
Yin Wenni followed Brianna's gaze and saw Hockley and Bucket again. She hadn't figured out why Brianna was so excited when she saw these two, but she was speechless when she heard Brianna's words.The corners of Yin Wenni's eyes twitched slightly and said, "Are you interested in people or clothes?"
Realizing her gaffe, Brianna smiled embarrassedly, and looked at Yin Wenni with a pure face: "I'm just curious!"
Please don't use your charming face to make such an innocent expression, okay?Yin Wenni's head was full of black lines, and she said with a wooden face: "Curiosity killed the cat, Brianna."
"Grace is the kitten!" Brianna complained. Seeing Yin Wenni's expressionless face, she smiled sweetly and flattered her, "I'm just bored, gossip."
As a close sister, out of precaution, Yin Wenni still reminded her: "Uncle Darcy is not willing to marry you abroad."
"My father is very open-minded." Brianna just said something, and immediately tugged on Winnie's sleeve, "Look, look, they seem to be fighting again!"
From this point of view, Ruth rode away on the horse without looking back, and Carl stood there without moving. It really seemed that something unpleasant had happened.
"Okay, I haven't ridden enough yet, run faster this time and see who gets to the willow tree by the lake first." Yin Wenni raised her whip and extended an invitation.
"Okay!" Brianna successfully diverted her attention, looking eager to try.
They separated at a fork in the road, and each rode their horses to their destination.
"Strange, where is this place? Why are there three forks." After turning two intersections in a row, Brianna reined in the reins and stopped.She frowned and looked at the fork in front of her, not knowing where to go.But it hasn't been two years, how can it change so much!Brianna jumped off the horse, thinking angrily while carefully examining the three roads.The one on the right was supposed to be a new one, Brianna figured out quickly, but she couldn't make up her mind about the other two.Just as she was about to take a look at it at her wit's end, the sound of horseshoes sounded.She looked over subconsciously, and saw the Mr. Hockley she had seen before riding a tall black horse across the bushes and appeared in front of her eyes.
"Hello, miss. Um, do you need my help?" Cal Hockley just broke up with Ruth, and he was walking casually on horseback to get some air. Unexpectedly, he saw an obviously well-born lady squatting at the fork. Looking distressed on the side of the road.He hesitated for two seconds, then got off his horse and asked.
Brianna squatting on the side of the road: o(╯□╰)o!What should I do if the male god sees that I am so unladylike?
Brianna stood up in a natural, quick and decent manner, lightly patted the ashes on her hands, quickly put on a friendly and polite social smile on her face, and said, "Thank you very much, I can't find the place to go to the lake. The way of the big willow tree."
"I think the tree you're talking about should be the one that was crushed by Blizzard at the beginning of the year." Carl put his hand next to his mouth and coughed a few times, hiding his smile, and said.
/(tot)/~~ Why is this world changing so fast!Brianna's smile froze for a while. She lowered her head and fiddled with the brooch to hide her embarrassment before she raised her head and said, "Could you please tell me how to get to the original location? My cousin and I have an appointment there."
"I'll take you there!" Carl reached out his hand to help her get on the horse in a gentlemanly manner. He didn't ride the horse, but led the two horses slowly.
"Thank you very much, sir. My name is Brianna Darcy." Brianna introduced herself with crooked eyebrows.
"Cal Hockley." He is tall, 1.9 meters tall, and Brianna is much shorter than Brianna who does not need to sit on a horse. Of course, this is also the reason why Brianna chose a young horse. "May I ask, is Mr. Abel Darcy related to you?"
"He's my brother." Brianna said, she looked at Carl with some curiosity, "You know my brother?"
"For some business dealings, Mr. Darcy is very respectable and dignified." Carl's attitude is much closer. Darcy's family not only has the title of Viscount, but also has a lot of real estate, and has opened many factories. The family property is rich.With status and wealth, they are exactly the people the Hockley family needs to make friends with.He had been in contact with Abel a few times, and he was somewhat of an old-fashioned British gentleman. Except for talking about business, he was really not very close.But his sister seemed very friendly, without any arrogance of a noble lady.
"Oh! Do you like riding horses very much? You are quite familiar with this place." Seeing that he knew which way to go almost without judgment, Brianna had a natural sense of admiration for those who knew the way. How many times had Pemberley lost his way!
"Fortunately, I don't ride often. I have only been in the UK for half a year, and I heard about the willow tree from friends." Carl smiled, his deep eyes were as mysterious and intoxicating as the night, "I am an American, and my father is from Pittsburgh steel tycoon."
Seeing that he was clearly emphasizing his identity deliberately but still pretending to be casual, Brianna really felt that this awkward little appearance was so cute!Her eyes sparkled, she restrained the urge to touch her, and fanned her eyelashes lightly: "My little aunt is also in the United States, she married there very early, and she lives in Philadelphia."
"What a coincidence!" Carl was obviously more interested. You must know that during this period of time he worked hard to barely enter the upper class in England, but it was really difficult to deal with those who valued their origins. "Which family did she marry? Maybe I know."
"Butler, my uncle is Rhett Butler." Brianna said, "I heard that he is from the south and later moved to Philadelphia."
The Hockley family got rich overnight from his father's generation. Even though they have more than ten times more wealth than the nobles, it is difficult for them to break into the upper class. This is not limited to the UK.The Butler family, some people say that his family made a fortune in the Civil War, and some say that Mr. Butler dug a gold mine when he was young, but no matter what, the Butler family who started his family early and married a nobleman is obviously well-known in Philadelphia. High class people.And Karl Chacha, who had dealt with the wealthy Mr. Butler, was an eclectic and shrewd man. "I happen to know this Mr. Butler, and he is one of the few people I admire very much." Carl smiled a little deeper.
"What a coincidence!" Brianna wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yin Wenni who rushed over: "Brianna, I forgot that you are a road idiot! My God! I almost lost you!"
The corners of Brianna's mouth were stiff, and she looked depressedly at Yin Wenni, who was full of worry, and shouted in her heart: Cousin!Do you know what family ugliness should not be publicized!
Ewinie tilted her head slightly, took a quick glance out of the corner of her eye, and looked at Brianna puzzled.
"Don't you think he's handsome? He's pretty cute." Brianna smiled brightly by drinking tea as a cover.
