Quick Transmigration: Losing All Standing and Reputation - Chapter 75

[Chapter 75 Glory Recovery (7)]

Gertrude is a strong personality, which has many suitors talking behind the scenes.

But it was precisely her strength that enabled Palatinate, who was in a confused stage, to stand up again.

The relationship between the two was established at that time.

Palatinate wanted to get engaged, but Gertrude, who had been infatuated with love, suddenly became sober and flinched. She was out of step with the times, and most of the time she was included in the Palatinate. But there were still times when even the Palatinate couldn’t really understand her, and just embraced her so-called “weirdness” with love. At times like this, Gertrude will deeply realize that she does not belong to this era, and even the people she loves cannot really understand her pain.

So she retreated, she wasn’t ready to actually marry someone.

It was a huge blow for the Palatinate, and the two men’s correspondence nearly came to a standstill. Gertrude ruminated on his own mind, tossing and turning. Palatinate went to balls one after another under Hillier’s comfort. He came to a ball, saw that there was no Gertrude, sat in the corner with a glass of wine, and the rest of the time was just to entertain himself.

Palatinate fell into a lovelorn, and was more than polite to the ladies who came to strike up a conversation, but not enough enthusiasm. The young ladies who thought they were about to break up came back full of disappointment.

This period is reflected in Palatinate’s later letters: “Hillier told me that I should have a drink on bad days. He was a very sweet friend, and he cared about me perseveringly, and I decided to listen to him. Suggestion. As soon as I get to the ball, I see the little girls who are fighting each other, and I know his little tricks. My dear, please don’t hate him because of this, he just cares too much about me. Just because of your rejection, my heart is full Broken. Those young ladies are like butterflies in spring, dancing with rich colors. But my world has long since turned black and white because of your rejection. No matter how graceful those butterflies are, they can’t bring a little color to my world. Only you, only you, can do this.”

The news of the failed marriage proposal of the Palatinate somehow got out. The young ladies gnashed their teeth at this “unintelligible, rude and savage” Miss Braine, but these negative emotions mixed with jealousy were far less than Viscount Braine’s anger.

Viscount Braine held back his anger first, and persuaded Gertrude nicely. Gertrude was already upset, and at a glance, he saw the greed behind Viscount Braine’s smiling face and was unwilling to yield. Viscount Brian was furious, and he couldn’t help imprisoning Gertrude. He also cut off her diet, and only allowed the servant to bring her some water every day.

Gertrude’s maid risked her life to find Palatinate, and Palatinate personally came to the door and rescued the man. At that time, Gertrude had passed out of hunger twice, and finally woke up, but he felt that his eyes were shining, and he was crying alone in a room with no light. She hated this era, and Viscount Brian could treat her so casually just because he was her father.

The darkness and hunger made people delirious, and she was afraid and afraid, but she still gritted her teeth and refused to give in, as if bowing her head would kill her.

The moment the door opened, light came in from outside. She kept her eyes open, tears streaming down her face, obviously stimulated by the light, but she was still reluctant to give up like someone who had finally seen the light again. The consequence of this behavior was that Gertrude couldn’t see the person for a while, and she didn’t recognize him in the arms of her lover until the Palatinate breathed him into his arms.

Gertrude’s eyes widened, but he couldn’t see him. He could only hug him and cry, saying that he didn’t like this era, that she was actually very scared, that she didn’t want to marry him, but that she didn’t dare to marry him. give him. She is like a child who has been wronged, she can barely maintain a strong face in front of outsiders, but when she returns to the people close to her, she can only cry and vent.

Palatinate patiently reassured her and let her boil a glass of hot milk. The hot milk with sugar has a soothing effect, and it soothes Gertrude’s empty tail a little, making her tired and sleepy in contentment and peace of mind.

Palatinate brought people back to Blandings Castle. Viscount Brian had a black face all the time. This is the end of the matter. Whether Gertrude married Palatinate or not, it was obviously difficult for him to make money from it. Viscount Breen wanted to be hard-hearted and stop the Palatinate from taking people away, but Palatinate was not the kind-hearted earl he used to be. Viscount En his status as an earl.

After Gertrude could eat normally, he still did not know how to face the Palatinate. It was the Palatinate, who was frightened by Gertrude, who felt sorry for her and sad that she would rather endure it than marry him. In the end, he couldn’t hold back and asked, “Is it so difficult for you to marry me?”

Gertrude knew that he had misunderstood. Z understood that she did not agree to Viscount Brian’s request because she did not want to marry him with impure purposes. No matter what the rest of the century was like, she thought they both shared a pure understanding of marriage.

If Palatinate asked her if she loved him, the answer would be yes. But after getting a positive answer, if Palatinate asked her why she didn’t want to marry him, Gertrude couldn’t say it. Travelling is her biggest secret, the source of her insecurity, but also the source of her security.

But Palatinate didn’t ask. He sighed and hugged Gertrude in his arms. This was a very polite and considerate hug, much more formal than the hug of a young couple when they were in love. But Gertrude felt that all his stress and contradictions were dissolved in this embrace.

Palatinate put his chin on Gertrude’s hairy head and said, “As long as you don’t want to marry me, then whether you want to marry me later or simply don’t want to marry me at this time, I can Accept. I think you have troubles that you can’t tell. I don’t ask you to tell me now, but please don’t get angry with me like you are now. I’m really sad and worried. Okay?”

Gertrude Her moral heart melted, and she even wanted to agree to marry him on the spot. But she thought, she can’t be so selfish. At this time, she didn’t organize her thoughts, and she didn’t know what kind of responsibilities she could take on. How could she marry him at this time?

In Gertrude’s last letter, she recalled the moment, telling the Palatinate that ninety-nine times out of every hundred she remembered it, she was grateful. Fortunately, she didn’t say that she wanted to marry him at that time, otherwise it would be the last thing she wanted to happen in her life. However, in this hundred times, there was also one time when she regretted that she had not been able to obey her will at that moment, and until she died, she could not truly become his wife. Obviously, among so many nobles, only the two of them are determined to enter the marriage hall with their loved ones, but after going around in circles, the two of them failed to get married.

Gertrude guessed that this is the arrangement of fate, and if people want to suffer because of fate, it is difficult to get rid of this life. She sincerely hopes that the Palatinate will forget all this.

Both Gertrude and the Palatinate had a great time after the confinement and before the Holy See stepped in.

Viscount Braine basically gave up the control of Gertrude. Although he had some intentions to repair the relationship with this daughter, because Gertrude was too tough, Viscount Braine’s concession was secretly in order to keep himself from stepping down. of. This is enough for Gertrude, she doesn’t care who Viscount Braine’s most beloved child is, and how she will be treated by other nobles when she goes out.

Viscount Brain’s relaxation gave Gertrude the opportunity to practice and promote everything she had learned. After rejecting Palatinate’s proposal, she thought for a long time and made a decision. One of them was to do everything she could to change the era. After coming here for so many years, she has always been at peace. He said that he was not used to the aristocratic style of this era, and sympathized with those commoners who suffered. But what did she actually do? She didn’t. Because she was subconsciously afraid, afraid that if she showed something different, she would be discovered and persecuted.

But after going through so much, her mind changed. What kind of era is this? A father, as long as his heart is unhappy, can lock his daughter in a claustrophobic room, give her no food, and limit the amount of water she can drink. Even if she died, maybe it would be a frivolous death report to the public. Others may know the inside story and only casually sigh about Viscount Brian’s sternness and cruelty, but no one would want to condemn him severely because Gertrude did violate Viscount Brian’s authority as the head of the family.

Gertrude knew it wasn’t right and the others didn’t, not because Gertrude was smarter than them or whatever, but because she had seen better times. If Gertrude himself does not stand up and bring a little change to this era, how many lives will it take to exchange for the dawn of a little change?

Gertrude knows that apart from those advanced knowledge, she is not much smarter than the people of this era. She has no shrewdness, she acts impulsive, and sometimes she is very emotional. Maybe she can’t change anything at all, but she still wants to spread what she knows.

With the help of Palatinate, Gertrude began to run to college. The universities at this time are actually somewhat similar to the universities of later generations. There are people who are serious about learning, but there are also many people who come to mess around. After all, going to university is a way to advance to the class, just like the students of later generations for better jobs. Just like reading. As in the earlier debates with the Palatinate in letters, Gertrude began debating various issues at the university with various undergraduates. When arguing against a person, no one takes her to heart. When the two were arguing, some people began to look at her differently. When the three people were arguing, the guys who were especially academic began to drag her to discuss the issue. Gertrude’s words began to gain weight. In addition to discussing academic issues, she did not forget to bring private goods, paving the way for human rights and women’s rights.

It’s not that no one is sensitive to this, but Kanno’s master stood behind her with a smile on his face, and others could only hold back silently if they wanted to say something unpleasant, which gave Gertrude plenty of room.

Moreover, not all the children of the nobles were in the university. Some people listened to these words harshly, and naturally some people felt comfortable listening to them, and even had new ideas.
