Chapter 27 fourth quarter

I met Miss Emily Barton outside with a shopping basket on her arm. "Morning, Mr. Burton, I hear you went to London yesterday." Yes, she must have heard what happened yesterday.I think her eyes are very kind, but also full of curiosity. "I'm going to the doctor," I said. Miss Emily smiled. Smiling, she obviously didn't take Marcus Kent seriously. She whispered, "I heard that Meghan almost didn't get on the train. She jumped on it when the train was about to leave." "I did her a favor and dragged her into the car," I said. "You guys are so lucky, otherwise I'm afraid there will be an accident."

It was strange how a gentle and curious old lady could make a man feel like a fool. Fortunately, Mrs. Cassop showed up just in time to save me from further attacks.The kind old lady followed her, but she had enough of her own words. "Morning," she said, "I heard that you want Meghan to buy you some attractive clothes, don't you? You're very sensible. A man has to think about some practical things to think about it. I'll do it for you." That girl has been worrying for a long time, and a smart girl can easily become an imbecile, can't she?" After publishing this astonishing statement, she rushed into the fishing tackle shop without looking back.

Leaving Miss Marple standing beside me, she said with a wink, "Mrs. Cassop is a very special woman, you know, and she's almost always right." "It also made people wary of her," I said. "That's the power of sincerity," said Miss Marple. Mrs. Cathorpe rushed out of the tackle shop again and caught up with us, a big red lobster in her hand. "Have you ever seen anything like Mr. Pie?" she said. "Hey, masculine, masculine, and very attractive, isn't it?" I was a little nervous at the thought of facing Joanna, but when I got home, I found that there was nothing to worry about.She wasn't home and didn't come back for lunch.Partridge felt very aggrieved, and while putting the two loins into the plate, he said sourly:

"Miss Burton specifically told me she would be back for lunch today." I ate both loins, hoping to make up for Joanna.But I still wonder where the hell Joanna has gone.She's been acting mysterious lately. It wasn't until half past three in the afternoon that Joanna rushed into the living room.When I heard the car outside, I expected to see Griffey too, but the car kept coming and I saw Joanna alone. She was very red in the face and looked very disturbed, and I thought something must have happened. "What's wrong?" I asked. Joanna opened her mouth, but closed it again, sighed, and sat back in her chair, staring ahead.

"Today was a horrible day," she said. "What happened?" "I did the most unbelievable thing, it was horrific—" "But in the end—" "I was just going out for a walk, up the slope to the clearing, and walked miles and miles, and came to a valley. There was a farm there, and it was a desolate place that God didn't care about. I was thirsty and wanted to Asked the people on the farm if they had milk or something, went in, but the door opened and Owen came out." "and after?" "He thought it was the village nurse, because there was a woman on the farm who was about to give birth, and he was waiting for the nurse, and told her to get another doctor—something went wrong anyway."

"Oh?" "So he said to 'me': 'Come on, you can do it -- and be better than anyone else.' I said no, and he asked me what I meant? don't know--" "He asked me back, what does that matter? Then he got really scary, looked at me and said, 'You're a woman, aren't you? I figured you'd be able to help another woman as much as you could, wouldn't you?' And Tell me, every time I talk, I seem to be very interested in practicing medicine, and I want to be a nurse, 'It's all beautiful lies, no sincerity at all! But this thing's' true, you You have to show the courage of a decent person, don't just be a useless vase?'”

"I did the thing I didn't know, Jerry. I boiled the utensils in water and passed them to Owen. I was so tired that I couldn't stand up. It was terrible! But he saved her and That child, both mother and child are safe, and he thought he couldn't save the child. Oh, God!" Joanna covered her face with her hands. I gazed at her with delight, and I couldn't help admiring Owen Griffey for having brought Joanna to face reality once. I said, "There's a letter from you in the living room. I think it's from Paul." "Huh?" She paused, and then said, "Jerry, I never knew what doctors were going to do. They are so brave!"

I went to the living room and brought Joanna's letter. She opened it and looked at it, then put it aside. "He's--really amazing. His fighting spirit, his unyielding courage! He's reckless and scary with "me"--but he's so good!" I was a little pleased to read Paul's neglected letter, and it was clear that Joanna didn't care about the pain Paul had caused her in the past.
