At the barbecue banquet, although Margot chatted happily with Rhett Butler and George Clark, it doesn't mean that she didn't notice Scarlett's actions.

On the contrary, like the rest of the girls, she thought Scarlett was too much.

Among other things, Frank Kennedy was Suellen's boyfriend after all. Scarlett obviously hated him, but still hooked him up.This kind of behavior is not only a kind of harm to Suellen, but also a challenge to Margot's three views.

In Margo's view, Scarlett has no shortage of men, so why must she seduce Frank Kennedy?Does she have the consciousness of being a sister?Did she think of Suellen as her sister?

Margot was lying there, even though she tried her best to calm herself down, the image of Scarlet flirting with more than seven boys in the morning still kept circling in her mind.

She couldn't sleep at all.

Finally, she decided to go to the library to sit and read a book to calm herself down.

Margo quietly climbed out of bed.But I didn't want to, there was another person in this room who couldn't sleep, and seeing her get up, he hurriedly got up.

"Margo, don't you take a nap?"

Margot said: "I can't sleep. I plan to go to the library to find a book to read."

Su Ellen looked at Karin who was already asleep, and suddenly said, "Is it because of Scarlett?"

"Yes."

Suellen was silent for a while, before she said, "Margo, can I talk to you?"

"it is good."

The two sisters helped each other, got dressed, held hands, and tiptoed down the stairs.However, as soon as they touched the door of the library, they heard voices coming from inside.

It was Scarlett's voice.

Ashley--Ashley--tell me--you must--oh, don't tease me!Do you have me in your heart?Oh dear, I really—”

"Don't say that, Scarlett, you can't say that! It's not what you mean. You'll hate yourself for saying it, and you'll hate me for hearing it."

"I never hate you, I tell you, I love you. I know you must like me, because—Ashley, you like—you like me, don't you?"

"Yes," he said numbly, "like it."

The sound of liking chilled Scarlett's heart, and made Suellen stunned for a moment.

Suellen is just not smart, there is something wrong in Ashley's tone.Ashley's answer terrifies Scarlet and leaves Suellen at a loss.

At any other time, Suellen would have cheered jubilantly at the sight of Scarlett's loss in love.But when she saw her elder sister Marge's face turned livid, she immediately shrank her head and didn't dare to speak.

The argument in the room continued.

"Scarlett," he said, "let's go away and forget what we just said, shall we?"

"No," whispered Scarlett, "I can't do it. Don't you want--won't marry me?"

He replied: "I'm going to marry Melanie."

After a long pause, a voice came from the room again:

"Father is going to announce the engagement to-night. We're going to be married soon. I should have told you, but I thought you knew. I thought everyone knew--years ago. Didn't expect you—you had so many suitors, I thought Stuart—"

"But just now you said you liked me."

"Honey, do you want me to say something that hurts you?"

Margot standing outside the door finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Of the two inside, one has no brains at all, and the other is procrastinating.Does this kind of thing need to be sticky for so long?

In Suellen's shock, Margo kicked the door open.

A man and a woman in the room immediately jumped up.

Marge gave Scarlett a hard look, then turned to ask Ashley: "Mr. Wilkes, please tell me the truth, you really love Scarlett, and you are willing to give up your family, your family, and you for him." Your reputation, your everything?"

Ashley was taken aback for a moment, and then said painfully: "No."

Margot said: "Since you simply like my sister, please be straightforward and don't let her have unnecessary fantasies. It will only make her suffer."

Scarlett screamed, "Margo!"

Margot said coldly: "Enough, Scarlett, Ashley's indecision is wrong, but you, it's so sad that you can't even see his real appearance!"

"I……"

"Isn't it? As a twin, I know you better than you think. What is Ashley to you? The one who rode down the long avenue two years ago, dressed in gray It’s just a blond man in a woolen coat. Even if you remember every detail of his clothes and attire that day, do you know what makes him look handsome among so many young men in the county? Do you know what it is like The reason, does it make his voice so pleasant to your ears?"

"What does it matter? I love him—"

"What do you love about him? Isn't it just this face and this outfit? But Scarlett, apart from Ashley Wilkes' appearance, how much do you know about his heart? Every word he said In a word, do you understand everything? How much do you understand your books, poems, music, oil paintings, etc.? If you can really understand his words, you won’t regard his social words as sweet words.”

"Enough, you did exactly what Dad said—"

Margot said: "It's exactly the same. Haven't you been curious about the marriage between father and mother? Mother is the lady of the most noble family in Savannah. How did such a mother marry father? After marriage, mother's mood changed again. How is it. Didn’t you also whisper in your heart?”

"But my father and mother's marriage seems to be very happy."

"That's because Dad loves Mom crazily, but Mom keeps giving in in the marriage. Just like last night, Mom was obviously very tired, but Dad didn't notice. Scarlett, you Tell me, can you notice every look on Ashley's face? Do you know what every look on Ashley's face means? Can you respect him? You know what the Wilkes family never dies Soul?"

Scarlett was taken aback.

She was suddenly speechless.

She really wanted to refute Margot's words, but her heart told her faintly that what Margot said was right.

Scarlett gave Ashley a desperate look and rushed out.

Instead, it was Ashley Wilkes, whose expression gradually became firmer following Margot's words.

Ashley said, "Margo, I'm sorry. And thank you."

Margot nodded and said, "Can I occupy the library? I have something to say to my other sister, Suellen."

Ashley hesitated to speak, but finally walked out and closed the door for the sisters.
