All Heavens Film and Television: Starting from Caring for the Widow of a Comrade-in-arms

However, when Marlena came to her father's house and was about to use the key to open the door, she was stunned.

The door lock was changed, and he looked up at the window, which was also tightly closed.

She was rejected by her father!To put it seriously, her father did not admit that he had such a daughter.

At this moment, Malena felt all kinds of grievances welling up in her heart, and tears flowed down her eye sockets.

Every step I take before leaving my father's house is heavy.

She didn't know why her father would rather trust outsiders than her.

Those people maliciously slandered and slandered her behind her back, and instead of helping her speak, her father helped outsiders to trick her?

Marlena's heart was broken again. The death of her husband Castile did not make her fall down, but her father's actions hurt her deeply.

She had nothing to rely on. Although her body was leaning against the wall, the uneven wall made her feel pain.

In the far corner of the wall, Renaldo was a little dazed when he saw Marlena leaning on the wall and crying.

If he was an adult, he would definitely protect Marlena from being bullied.

But he's still a kid...

Suddenly, Renado seemed to think of something.

Turned the bike sharply and left the alley.

Dangdang Dangdang!

Olijato looked up at the door, "Reinaldo, what's the matter?"

Renaldo summoned up his courage and said, "I, I'm looking for Mr. Russell!"

"Mr. Russell doesn't waste his time with children."

Leonardo: "But I really have something to do with Mr. Russell!"

At this time, Russell just came out of the house, and turned around to see Renado.

"Are you looking for me?"

"Yes, Mr. Russell."

Russell nodded: "Come in, Sylvana is preparing candy and giving it to Renado as a snack."

"Ok."

Go inside and sit on the sofa.

Renardo told about the scene that he saw Marlena being rejected outside her father's house just now.

"Mr. Russell, I know that you sent back the ashes of Mr. Castilla, and you also went to meet Marlena. I also know that you are the town's security officer..."

Information spreads so fast in the small town, there are no secrets at all, and everyone has a big mouth.

"Why was Marlena rejected by her father?"

Renardo said: "Because at school, someone gave Mr. Posigno an anonymous letter saying that Marlena had an affair with dozens of men in the town, which made Mr. Posigno feel ashamed..."

"Hehe, ok, I understand."

At this time, Sylvana properly stuffed the candy into Renado's hand, and he held the candy and said gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Russell."

"You're welcome."

After Renado left.

Sylvana said: "Sir, Marlena is a poor woman. Most people in the town are slandering her. Those people are trying to get her, and some people are jealous of her beauty."

"Well, are you ready for the meeting ceremony for the neighbors?"

"Ready."

Russell got up and said, "Dinner is prepared as usual, let Olijato prepare some wine, I want to talk to him about something tonight."

"Ok."

--

Russell took the meeting gifts and sent them door-to-door to the nearby neighbors.

Seeing Russell's handsome appearance and generous shot, they couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

When they opened the gift box, there was an amazing cheer from all of them.

A gift box contained two sausages, a block of bacon and cheese, and some sweets.

This is worth at least sixty or seventy lire.

For people in ordinary families, this is really too precious, it is simply the highest meeting gift.

Russell carried the remaining gift box and came to Malena's house.

Raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Not long after, the door was carefully opened a crack.

Malena inside the house was surprised to see Russell outside, "Mr. Russell!"

"Hello, Marlena. I have already settled in the small town. I am in the seaside villa not far from your home. I was too anxious when we met for the first time, and I didn't prepare the meeting ceremony. This is a little kindness. The other three neighbors around I got it all, and it’s up to you.”

Russell's words were very plain. Although he saw the tear stains on Marlena's face and the red eye sockets from crying, he was not prepared to offer words of comfort.

Marina is a sensitive woman and might be embarrassed to be seen in embarrassment.

Sure enough, she opened the door, revealing her whole body.

At home, she was still wearing a black dressing gown, but she took off her high heels, and put her little feet wrapped in silk stockings in cotton slippers.

"Thank you, Mr. Russell, may I buy you a cup of coffee?"

Russell asked: "Hand ground coffee?"

Marina nodded: "Yes."

Seeing him nodding, Marina stepped aside and asked Russell to enter the room, then closed the door.

She bought the coffee with her husband's allowance, because Russell didn't even get a sip of warm water when he came to the door last time, which made Malena feel that the hospitality was not good.

After all, Russell was her husband's comrade-in-arms and officer, and saved her husband's life. Although his life was not saved, Russell was a man whom her husband stated in his letter that he was worthy of entrustment.

As for the five hundred lire that Russell gave, she gave all of it to her father, because she often ate at his house these years, and when she had money, she wanted to repay her father, but she didn't expect to be turned away by her father today.

Russell sat on the stool after entering the door, and Marina quietly went to grind the coffee, turning her head to look at Russell's expression from time to time, for fear that he would be impatient.

But there was no expression on Russell's face, which made it hard to figure out.

Marina put the brewed coffee in front of Russell, and then she sat opposite Russell.

"I heard that you are looking for a job recently?"

Marina nodded: "Yes."

"What kind of job do you want to find?"

"As long as I can survive, I don't expect to find a decent job, and no one in the town will hire me for a decent job."

In the past, Malena had hoped that she could find a decent job in a small town.

However, when her father turned her away, she realized that even her father had treated her like this, so one can imagine how the people in the small town would treat her.

The respect and enthusiasm on the surface are all waste that grows in the dark, and there is not much real feeling.

"Can you make clothes?"

Malena sat in front of him, put her hands on her lap, and nodded: "Yes, but the clothes I make can only be worn by me."

The natives of Sicily are very conservative, which is one of the reasons why people feel bad about Marina.

Pointing to a white dress on the wardrobe, Russell asked: "Did you make this? It looks beautiful and stylish."

"Thank you."

Russell said: "I think you can be a designer."

"Designer?" Malena asked curiously with her eyes wide open.

"Yes, costume designer."

Marina was taken aback.

Chapter 8 Marlena's private order, go to sea!

Russell went on to say: "If you can make a dress that people like, then someone will give you a design fee. The more famous the designer, the higher the fee."

"Really? But no one in town likes my clothes."

"I like it, Marina. Listen, you don't need to care about the people in the town. They are just stumbling blocks in your life. When you stay away from these stumbling blocks, you will find that life is smooth sailing."

Marina looked at Russell and blinked.

No one had ever said anything like that to her before.

Not even her husband ever said it.

"Okay, I'll keep that in mind."

Russell got up and said, "Now can you help me design a suit? To be honest, the suits bought in the store are too ill-fitting."

Marlena opened her mouth, "This...this..."

"you are not willing?"

"No, I would..."

Marlena blurted out, these words are a bit like a priest at a wedding scene asking the bride, are you willing to marry him?

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, the groom asked, "You don't want to?"

Malena replied anxiously: No, I am willing.

Some shy.

"Excuse me, I... when can I make it?"

Russell said: "Now? Maybe tomorrow? It depends on when you have time."

"I can do it any time."

Marina bit her lip, if she could be sure, this would be her first job in the small town!

There is also a tailor shop in the town, and the style is the type that the residents like.

And Malena's clothes are too fancy, even if someone likes them, they only wear them when they are alone with their men to add a little flair, but no one will wear them out.

Marlena hurriedly went to get the measuring tape. When she was running, the soles of her feet slipped, the slippers were thrown out, and her feet in stockings stepped on the ground.

"Are you okay?"

Russell still didn't help.

Marlena panicked and shyly said: "It's okay, please wait."

After a while, Malena came back with a measuring stick and a record book.

"Please raise your hand."

Marlena looped Russell's waist to measure the size.

Then record carefully.

The shoulders, arms, and back were all measured.

When the two reached the trouser legs, Malena suddenly paused.

His face was hot, and he didn't dare to look up at Russell.

"Excuse me. I must admit that you are charming, and I can't help it."

Marina said softly, "No, it's okay."

Russell is a gentleman and frank, there is nothing to be ashamed of, a normal man will do this when he sees a beautiful woman, otherwise something will go wrong.

Malena recorded the data size, and Russell also finished his coffee.

"Marlena, the money is for fabrics. If the style you make satisfies me, then you will get three hundred lire. This is the standard price for custom-made clothes."
