[Gone with the Wind] Back to the beginning

The trip in New Orleans was said to be a honeymoon, but it actually took more than two months.After that, Rhett took Scarlett to Miami, Orlando and other cities. If it weren't for the news that Melanie was about to give birth, Rhett had already planned to take Scarlett to Paris.

"I will definitely take you there in the future." He said regretfully to her.Scarlett smiled and didn't take it seriously, all her mind was on Mei Li's delivery.

A few days later, Melanie gave birth to a baby girl.Both she and Ashley were ecstatic, and Scarlett was even more happy for the baby she didn't have in her previous life-although Rhett always joked that they could have one, Scarlett still held the baby named Betty do not let it go.Betty was very well-behaved, and she just fell asleep soundly in Scarlett's arms, so she didn't have to worry about it at all.Everyone said that Betty was a gift from God to Melanie because she was so devout and kind.Scarlett felt so privately, too, that Melanie deserved happiness more than anyone else, and she was glad she would never lose this good friend again.

They booked a presidential suite in the reconstructed Atlanta Hotel for a temporary stay, but Scarlett's mind was already planning the grand banquet for the new home.She just wanted to show off—of course she wanted to share her happiness with others, and Ritt was willing to spend money to make her happy.Shortly after Betty's full moon, Scarlett finally moves into her new, renovated home.The new house she's dreaming of is beautiful—white sculptures on green grass, fountains, and swings flying high.Inside the elegant and simple exterior, there are various arrangements that are lively and bright but not frivolous, which makes her feel high.Scarlett got her wish and rolled several times on her wool rug--although she was in a less pleasant mood when Mr. Butler lay down and rolled (?) and undressed too.In short, Scarlett is very satisfied with her new home.

She was preoccupied with planning her first party after the house move.She wants to throw a grand party—better than the birthday party Rhett once gave her!At that time, old friends surrounded her, and what she felt was warmth, encouragement and love.But this time, what she wanted was carnival, complete carnival, the same wanton pleasure as before the war!She wants to pass this happiness on to everyone!

She has been busy with this for weeks.She put up palm trees for the facade, brought in the best bands, ordered delicious pastries of every kind—how wise Rhett had brought the cook back from New Orleans, and spread the canvas in the cloister.She draws up a long guest list, writes invitations one by one, and sends them to old friends.Scarlett felt extremely happy and full of energy!

In the end, when the day of the banquet actually came, it was an unrepeatable dream, hailed by all - the band playing a moving track, candlelight adorned with palm trees and laurel wreaths.The new house was full of guests, people danced, sipped champagne, punch and patties, oysters with cream.Scarlett and Rhett embraced and danced in the crowd wearing beautiful new clothes.People raised their wine glasses to wish the newlyweds a long life and wish the South a prosperous future.It was bound to be done, as evidenced by the determination Scarlett saw in all the faces.She believes that the day when the Democrats regain the right to vote is not far off.

"Having fun, dear?" Captain Butler asked tenderly, catching his beloved wife behind the shadow of the palm tree.

"Hush—" But Scarlett raised her finger subconsciously, and she quietly pointed to the other corner: Catherine Calvert was talking to Tommy Welburne, and the two looked closer than before Not a lot.Rhett glanced at it and smiled.

"It's really a good thing, isn't it?" Rhett motioned her to walk away with him, and then said.

"Of course." Scarlett didn't feel guilty when she said this. After all, she had never fallen in love with Tommy. "They both have very good personalities, and they will be a good fit." Rhett looked at her with a half-smile, and was sure that Scarlett There was really no other thought in my heart, so I turned my eyes away.He brought up another matter.

"You're throwing this banquet for fun, but I think you've been too tired recently." Rhett said, "After this, you have to give me a good rest for a few days, Mrs. Butler. Otherwise, I'll have another spoonful Feed your medicine, huh?"

Scarlett gave him a hard look—once before she went out to take a shower in the cold at night and she caught a cold, the damned Rhett brought the medicine and refused to let her drink it up in one go!You have to feed it spoon by spoon!Scarlett has a psychological shadow!

"Don't bother." She said angrily, "It's not time to find Dr. Meade yet."

Rhett frowned, and quickly let go, he smiled slightly: "I hope this time will come soon."

Scarlett blushed.

But Scarlett was indeed a prophecy - in the next few days, she was a little lazy and unable to cheer up, always wanting to sleep.Rhett was really worried, so he directly invited Dr. Meade over.As a result, the doctor congratulated Rhett privately after the diagnosis, and then of course announced in front of Scarlett:

"Honey, I thought you might—you've been sick for seven or eight months—do you understand?"

"You're pregnant." Rhett walked in from the outside, with an unconcealable ecstasy and...a smirk on his face?Ignoring Dr. Meade's accusing eyes of "it's vulgar to directly say that you're pregnant", he sat beside Scarlett's bed and held her hand tightly, his voice excited and soft.He said again: "Honey, you're pregnant."

And Scarlett was already stupid.
