Beautiful and moving women in the world are often born in the family of a small clerk; This is exactly what we are going to talk about now. She has no dowry assets, no hope, and no way for a rich and powerful person to know her, understand her, love her and marry her; Finally, she will marry a small clerk in the Ministry of Education.
Can not pay attention to decoration, she is simple, but unfortunately like a fallen woman; Because women have no class, no family distinction, their beauty, their charm, their temptation is only for their birth and family background.
She felt that she was born for all the beautiful and luxurious things, so she felt pain. She was very sad because of the shabby house, rough walls, outdated furniture and vulgar materials. All this may not be noticed by another woman in her position, but she is very sad and annoyed.
Brittany's appearance of Meidochan, who helped her with trivial housework, caused her all kinds of sad regrets and reverie. She dreamed of those quiet reception rooms, how to send two tall waiters in shorts to wait for instructions, and the hot air heater made both waiters doze off in the big round back chair.
She dreams of a large living room covered with ancient wall clothes and exquisite furniture with priceless porcelain bottles; She dreams of those exquisite and fragrant small living rooms, where she can chat with kind boyfriends and famous men whom women envy and are eager to see.
She jumped up and hugged her friend's neck, kissed her affectionately, and finally, she ran away with this baby. The day of the party came, and Mrs. Russell was a great success. She is more beautiful, fashionable and charming than other female guests, always smiling and ecstatic.
Generally, male guests look at her, listen to her name and try to get people to introduce themselves to her. Everyone in the confidential department of this department wants to dance with her, and the minister pays attention to her.
She danced with intoxicated gestures and excited movements. She was in the seventh heaven of rapture. She is content with the glory of appearance victory and achievement. Satisfied with all the flattery and the song that makes women feel extremely perfect and sweet, a happy auspicious cloud surrounds her. So she doesn't think about anything.
She left around four o'clock in the morning. Since midnight, her husband and three other male guests have fallen asleep in a deserted small living room. The wives of three male guests are also dancing happily.
He put the clothes she brought to the street on her shoulders, the simple clothes commonly used at home, and the shabby meaning of these things did not match the luxurious style of the clothes at the dance. She felt this floor, so in order to avoid the attention of other ladies wrapped in precious leather clothes, she wanted to escape.
Russell grabbed her: "Wait. You will catch cold outside. I'll find a streetcar to rent. " But she never listened to him and hurried down the steps. When they walked into the street, they couldn't find the car; So they started searching, chasing cars that could be seen from a distance.
They walked to the banks of the Seine. They were disappointed and shivering with cold. In the end, they found an old car like Nightcrawler by the river-such a car was shameful in Paris during the day, so it could not be seen until after dark.
The car took them to the front door of the apartment in Martyrdom Street, and they went upstairs in frustration. It's all over for her. As for him, he remembers that he should be in the Ministry at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.
She took off those big coats over her shoulders in front of the mirror and wanted to look at her incomparable glory again. But suddenly she let out a scream. She doesn't have that Jin Gangzuan necklace around her neck!
