[Gone with the Wind] Miss Margot
Chapter 88 Cracks
In fact, not only Suellen, but Scarlett's marriage also had problems.
This has nothing to do with Scarlett's character.Although it is said that Scarlett is the eldest lady of the owner of a large southern manor, and that Scarlett married into a decent family in Atlanta at the age of 16 and became the wife of a high-class family, this does not mean that Scarlett Like most wives in this day and age, like her mother Ellen, she would be respectful and courteous to her husband.
Most people can see that Scarlett is a rather willful person, she is an egoist who puts herself first.
It's a really bad thing.
In the old customs in the south, although men love women, this kind of love is more or less chauvinistic when viewed from the perspective of later generations, that is, no matter how gentle a gentleman is, when facing women, he will unconsciously show such love. A sense of superiority.
This is really killing.
In fact, this is a kind of discrimination, sex discrimination.However, the vast majority of women in this era can only choose to obey, and most of them are not only victims but also perpetrators.
This is the sorrow of this era, and it is also the sorrow of human history. Whether it is the East or the West, there are such periods in history, and the time is very long, almost the same as the length of human known and recorded history.
Take the three married ladies of the O'Hara family as an example. Suellen is one of the typical people who did not notice this kind of discrimination. Without Marge, she would definitely become a perpetrator of sex discrimination unconsciously. With Margot's guidance, although Suellen didn't become that kind of perpetrator, she still didn't notice the harm of sexism to her.
And Margot must have noticed this, so she protected herself very well, not only hid it perfectly, but also found a person who understood her, respected her and tolerated her, that is, George Clark.
But Scarlett had no such luck.
When the war first started, Charles was a kid who had just left college. The war had tempered the kid, but it had only tested the kid physically and mentally.
But whether it is knowledge or thinking, Charles has not yet left the stage of the big boy.
But here is the problem, girls always grow up faster, although this time, Scarlett did not directly face the loss of her mother, her father's stroke, Tara Manor can only rely on her or the whole family will starve to death. Tragic predicament, but in Atlanta, she faced Atlanta's military control more directly, including facing the bayonets and guns of Yankee soldiers.
Especially later, the 3K Klan was active everywhere, and the conflicts between the Yankees, the South, and the blacks became more and more serious. All kinds of news spread to Clark's house, which made her feel anxious, for fear that when the Yankees would break into the house and catch her father or in the middle of the night Rie Negro climbed through her window.
Scarlet grew up with this kind of fear.
Although Scarlett was born stubborn and proud, and she was young and had a very one-sided understanding of many things, but she began to change.
And in this process, she definitely needs someone to guide her.According to the southern tradition, only her husband can educate a wife, but Charles is simply an older child and cannot give Scarlett any help.
In depression and rage, Scarlett also drifted away from her husband.
A more mature man might find the problem between them, but Charles is a big boy!This kind of thing is really too embarrassing for him!
After Frank, Charles' heart also became unbalanced.
Of course, the southern tradition, the upbringing of the Hamilton family, and his natural kindness and gentleness prevented him from yelling at Scarlett, but his wet, dazed and innocent eyes, like a small animal, really That gave Scarlet a real headache.
If possible, Scarlett would be very happy to learn from Rhett, get an office in the bank, and hide in the office to sleep.
But the fact is that although Scarlett is the most important accountant in the Bank of Atlanta, she can't have her own desk in the bank like an ordinary employee. No matter how many jobs she has, she can only stay. Do it at home.
What's even more tragic is that because Hamilton's house is really too close to Clark's house, even a little bit of things may reach the ears of Ellen and Gerald, which also makes Scarlett even more irritable.
Once, she finally couldn't help losing her temper with Charles: "What the hell are you trying to say?!"
Sitting at the desk with a thick stack of books in hand, Scarlet raised his head impatiently and said to Charles: "You see, I have a lot of work to do, and all of these must be completed before this Wednesday."
Looking at Scarlett, whose brows were erect and his eyes seemed to have two clusters of flames burning, Charles was immediately cowed.
Charles snorted for a long time, and then said to his wife: "I think you seem a little unhappy. I want to ask if you want to go on a trip with me for a vacation?"
"At this time? Election month?"
When Scarlett raised his voice, Charles felt guilty.
Of course he knew what Scarlett meant.
It's election month, but that's about George and Margot, and people like Rhett and Wilkes have nothing to do with him.
And because of the election month, many shops and factories have been closed. In Charles' view, this is also a rare holiday for Scarlett.
Since it's a holiday, why not take a good rest?Charles still wants to have another child.
After hearing Charles' explanation, Scarlett became even angrier: "At this time? Traveling? Didn't you see so many black people outside? Atlanta is still safe, but not necessarily other places. The Ku Klux Klan You won't forget things, will you?"
Going out to travel now is simply risking your own life!
Scarlett will never know that in another time and space, she also refused to listen to her family’s persuasion and insisted on doing things because of the lumber factory. As a result, she was attacked by black people, and all the southern men in the city joined the Ku Klux Klan activity. , Frank Kennedy even died because of it, making her a widow again.
But Scarlett wouldn't care if he knew.
In the original book, she runs the timber factory because she lacks a sense of security, and a lot of money can give her a sense of security, but here, she doesn't need that sense of security.In fact, she is not short of money now.
The materials collected at the beginning made Scarlett a lot of money, but now, as the most important accountant of the Bank of Atlanta, Scarlett's salary is quite reasonable, and he also enjoys employee dividends.
This job is less dangerous than other jobs and can be done at home. What's even better is that Scarlett can also support herself with this job, so she scoffed at Charles' proposal.
This has nothing to do with Scarlett's character.Although it is said that Scarlett is the eldest lady of the owner of a large southern manor, and that Scarlett married into a decent family in Atlanta at the age of 16 and became the wife of a high-class family, this does not mean that Scarlett Like most wives in this day and age, like her mother Ellen, she would be respectful and courteous to her husband.
