1070 Words
Lizzie wondered who had taken her revenge on the old lady.
But on second thought, the old lady offended a lot of people nearby —— she not only threw stones to the woman on horseback, but also threw a bicycle, encountered a skirt a little more bright social butterfly, she is eager to throw herself out.
Maybe it was some social butterfly protector, she thought, put it behind her head.
Soon, however, something weird happened again.
Her list of revenge, one by one, the way to her experience.
For example, at a dinner party, a man came up in front of everyone and asked loudly, " Mrs.De Charlotte, we all want to know if American women are as rude as you, riding shopping every day?”
Lizzie smiled sweetly at him: " I also want to know, Sir, the streets are full of men on horseback, they can ride, why can't I ride?”
The man smiled and said, " Those women who are keen to vote also think so. —— Why can men vote, they can't vote? I'm sorry, madam, but I have no intention to confuse you with those insane women. I just want to remind you that your riding has spread throughout St. Germain, and I think in a few days, even the 'trenches' will know that de Charlotte's wife likes to ride out like a savage.
His tone is sincere and sincere: " wife, for your own reputation, also for the poor Charlotte family, I hereby ask you, hope you can be a little restraint —— look at those wives, they because of your riding shopping, already scared, are afraid to go out shopping these days.”
With that, he took off his hat, bowed politely to her, and returned to the crowd. After a while, the crowd burst into loud applause, as if celebrating something.
Lizzie was only puzzled at that time, do not know what they were doing, back home, just gradually back to taste.
"Oh, they were clapping the man and running on me together."She thought angrily," hell, not I let those wives not shopping, looking for me why?”
In fact, the wives dare not go shopping, and really have some relationship with Lizzie.
In Saint-Germain, almost everyone is a relative to each other, whether close, cousin, by marriage or distant relative, more or less related. The favorite thing of ladies is to greet their relatives and gossip on the avenue.
But every time they gossip, they can always see Lizzie's riding yingzi —— yes, they admit that the shadow is very beautiful. The fierce horse is tall and beautiful, and the beauty is gorgeous and charming. If Lizzie was riding on the side, they would have no problem.
However, Lizzie is straddling.
Lord Jesus, who can tell this woman that stradis is at all?
Maybe she was not a superior woman before, do not understand these, but now she is one of them ah —— she did so, really humiliated them!
To avoid disgrace, the ladies had to go out until Lizzie's interest passed.
It's lucky that Lizzie didn't know their psychological activities, otherwise she would have been happy to ride to the street all her life.
All in all, the day after the man criticized Lizzie, he developed a strange disease, and the timing of the attack was so clever that it was like a punishment.
At the time, men were talking about politics, surrounded by superior people who listened to his opinions. Suddenly, his neck gave him a strange cry like a frog.
Everyone was stunned, thinking that he had drunk too much and was burping, smiling kindly.
The man looked pale, shook his head desperately, and cried out vigorously.
People then realized that he did not seem to voluntarily call the frog, it seems that there is a strong force in the manipulation of him to issue a funny strange call —— how is this possible?
A minute later, the frog's cry disappeared. The man drank a glass of brandy in confusion, smiled apologetically at the people around him, trying to save his grace, and the people around him were willing to pretend not to see the farce.
In the evening, the banquet came and went, and the men completely forgot the plight of the morning, and continued to talk about politics and sell the bonds of steel companies.
Speaking of the high tide, he joked, " Ladies and gentlemen, by God's testimony, if this bond does not make money, let me continue the frog!”
When he began to laugh at himself, they immediately followed his joke. They are all gentlemen, one of the most important virtues, is never let friends feel embarrassed —— not their circle.
A person smiled and said: " you don't say, you morning that hiccup, I really think you were punished by god —— publicly move a superior woman's wrong, really not very good.”
"Is Mrs.De Charlotte such a fine woman? I heard that she's not a lady in the US either. I can only say that there was no grassland in Saint-Germain district, otherwise she would have raised cattle on the spot.”
The crowd laughed.
The man laughed loudly, too. Look, everyone is laughing at Lizzie, saying he was right. For women who don't follow the rules of women, they should be ridiculed in public.
At this moment, he suddenly found a silence, all the people are looking strange —— he said what inappropriate words? No, he's just laughing at Lizzie.
Then he heard himself barking frogs.
One sound is louder than one sound.
The man's face quickly red, even if he was a whip, will not let him so embarrassed. This strange disease was so terrible that he had only made a poisonous oath!
The man covered his throat and swallowed desperately, trying to swallow the frogs. But he can't control his throat —— Damn it, he can't control it!
Cold sweat trickdown, for a moment, he wanted to die at the long table, but lacking the courage to die, he foolishly cried for half an hour.
The funny frog cry alone actually ruined his future. What really ruined his future was collecting evidence that he was selling fake bonds and put them on the mayor's desk.
Not only did he lose his face, but he was jailed.
