Looking at the sea at sea is indeed different from on the shore. What you can see at the seaside is just the edge of the sea, which is yellow and blue and shallow and has no connotation. The waves are gentle, smooth and light.
Caressing the surface of the sea... Even if there is a storm, it is just an occasional small churning of the sea.
Although a person who arrives at the seaside for the first time will be deeply intoxicated by what he thinks is a magnificent and vast scene in front of him, that is only because he has never seen the real sea. Once you completely enter its hinterland, put yourself completely in it.
In the vast sea surface, what you see in your eyes and think in your heart is no longer the narrow word "spectacular". It is the true masterpiece of God and the miracle of the creation of all things in the universe.
In the morning, the sea in the fog is vast, and the "wow...wow..." waves surge forward and back like huge sailboats, one after another, which makes people feel excited.
The heart also tightens and relaxes with the sound, keeping pace with the heartbeat of nature.
At this time, if the fog dissipates earlier, the sun will slowly rise. At the junction of water and sky, which seems not too far away, the morning glow will dye the vast sea area red, and a few seabirds that rise in the morning will also be plated.
It has a layer of red, flapping its wings "oh, oh" and flying and circling over the ship. The sun becomes hot at noon, and the sea surface becomes calmer. The clear and deep water has a pure luster like sapphire. You can clearly see
I can see the fish swimming up and then suddenly sinking. The mind of the sea is tolerant of everything. All kinds of ocean creatures live freely here. And in the evening, the scenery at this time is the most charming. The sea is as quiet as sleeping.
The baby was sleeping, and occasionally a gust of wind blew the waves, as if the baby turned over and continued to sleep soundly.
The setting sun reluctantly steps below the sea level, and the orange light is spread out, scattered and evenly spread on the calm tablecloth-like sea. After the stars come out, the sky becomes light blue against the background of the sea.
, a few jets of water sprayed out from the sea in the distance. It was whales taking advantage of this beautiful scene to come up to the sea to breathe the sweet air. Gradually, a thick fog quietly filled the sea. From time to time, there were flashes of light in the gloomy sky in the distance.
There were dazzling lights followed by dull rumbling thunder. It was about to rain, and the wind immediately started blowing, and the waves rolled in vain. The baby, who was disturbed from his sweet dream, lost his temper. The waves rolled and hit the side of the ship, and the wind intensified.
The offensive helped the waves rise. It was as if they were competing over the top of the ship to see who could get closer to the sky. Soon the big raindrops fell and hit the smooth deck, making a sound like fried beans. After a while, the rain became heavier and heavier.
Like an endless bead curtain, the rain is mixed with the salty taste of sea water. It is said that the rain is the tears of the sea god, because it contains all the misfortunes in the world, which is why the rain on the sea always
It gives people an unforgettable sadness.
In the first-class cabin, Juliana was tying Lady Louise's awkward corset and listened with great interest to her conversation with her friend Lady Malende.
"My dear, the ship has now sailed into the high seas. It won't be long before we can enjoy the charming sunshine of Jamaica."
Mrs. Marlene looked at Louise's waist that was being tightened with great interest, and then made a mental evaluation: She is getting more and more bloated and ugly now. She subconsciously straightened her slender waist---
--She still remains so beautiful and slim. She is very proud of this.
Marlene and Louise had similar family conditions before they got married. They were both daughters of the nouveau riche. However, Louise had better luck than she did. She married an old marquis in Spain and became a noble marquise, while she only married
She married a second-class officer with a lower status. She has been brooding about this, always trying her best to find out the shortcomings of this "lucky guy" so that she can have a little balance in her heart, and soon she discovered that she
Her advantage: her admirable perfect figure and beautiful appearance. She is not boasting, Mrs. Malinda can definitely be called one of the most attractive women in the middle and upper class: she has long, light chestnut hair.
, her skin is smooth and delicate with a soft luster, her big and bright eyes are shy and coquettish but always have the brilliance of looking forward to flying. Her slender hands are not tight, and her figure is slender and graceful. In short, she is a woman who makes all men fall in love with her.
The man that all women are jealous of.
Tonight, the merchant ship will hold a large-scale ball. All the most distinguished gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen on the ship will be invited to attend, so Mrs. Louise invited her over early to help her choose the most suitable and beautiful dress. She was jealous.
She admired her friend's talent in dressing up. And Mrs. Marlene was very happy to show her outstanding talents in front of her.
Mrs. Marlene smiled and looked at her own outfit from the slanted edge of the dressing mirror in front of Louise. She straightened her elegant sitting posture and continued chatting with her. However, her eyes would shift to the man who was trying on Louise's clothes from time to time.
As for the little maid, even she, a proud and well-informed beauty, had to admire the amazing beauty of the girl in front of her:
Her golden curly hair shines in the eyes of everyone who sees it, making people want to touch it gently at the first sight. Her big blue eyes reveal innocence, and her long and curly eyelashes drive the
Her eyes were twinkling, her small and tall nose, and her red lips made her fair and smooth skin even more delicate. She was fastening the tight buttons on Louise, and the corners of her mouth were raised naughtily, not knowing whether it was due to exertion or a snicker.
She looks as pretty as an angel.
Mrs. Marende stared at her intently, thinking with jealousy in her heart that if this girl could put on a decent dress and show up at the banquet, all the men's eyes would be attracted immediately, even the most handsome man in Spain.
Crown Prince Felipe is no exception.
"I heard that pirates often appear in this area - Hey, please be gentle, do you want to strangle me - those savage guys often rob merchants. - Tie it up tight here, yes, just this way
."
Mrs. Louise answered her words casually and asked Julianna from time to time how to tie the corset more beautifully. Julianna was very excited when she heard the talk about pirates again, but then she felt a little angry when she thought of her dead parents. She
Mrs. Louise should be the first to notice this change in her heart, not because she is good at observing words and emotions. This skill of hers can only be effective when used on men. Because Juliana is tightening the corset hard.
So much so that she could hardly breathe.
"What's the matter with you? You're so clumsy that you can't even tie your bra! Emma, help me. You! Go and put away the clothes."
Juliana turned around and rolled her eyes at her, scolding her thousands of times in her mind. If she hadn't thought of the consequences beforehand, she would have rushed up and taught her a lesson. But now - under the eaves, she had to bow her head. After all,
This is her own job. The damn captain knew that he would not let her go so kindly! Although she was angry, she still had to obey the order to clean up the pile of messy clothes on the bed. Mrs. Louise should
She went to make some new clothes, but now they are too thin for her. This not only reminded Juliana of her fatter cousin Tazea and her torn clothes. Thinking of this made her sad again.
.Although she is not happy at her aunt's house, she still has her friends and partners in the town to talk and laugh with, unlike now that she has to serve such a high-maintenance lady. Besides, besides being around her all day long,
Apart from Hans, she had no friend who could listen to her talk about her current loneliness and depression.
"Dear, do you know, I heard that the most powerful pirates in this area are a group called the 'Ocean Conquerors'. It is said that they not only plundered merchant ships but even dared to block the royal supply ships. The ships they bullied
The loss is so heavy." Mrs. Marlene sighed with awe and contempt.
"Yes, Captain Edwan was robbed by them last time. This was the first time he had been sailing for more than 40 years. I heard that the captain retired because of the loss of face due to this incident. Unfortunately -, here
If the collar is wrinkled, fix it." After Mrs. Louise ordered the old maid, she looked in the mirror, turned her head and smiled:
"My dear, I'm ready. Let's go. Don't keep the noble gentlemen waiting too long."
Mrs. Marlene also stood up with a smile and arranged her makeup again in front of the mirror:
"Okay. Let's go."
The two of them left the bedroom and walked to the front hall to attend the banquet.
Juliana packed up her room and went outside to look at the scenery. The rain had stopped, the blue sky was as clear as a wash, and a few shining stars hung in the night. The sea was a bit cold at night, and the wind blew her long hair.
They playfully entwined each other and played. The story of pirates was still lingering in her ears. After watching it for a while, she felt a little tired. She was about to go back to rest, but she met Hans who came to see her halfway.
"Judy, you haven't gone to bed yet? Great, I'll take you to see the grand ball held on the ship tonight. This was hosted by Captain Andres himself. All the gentlemen and ladies on the ship have been invited. Let's go and see it too.
How about a moment?"
Hans was always full of curiosity about the life of the upper class, which made Julianna most unhappy.
"I won't go. I hate seeing the pretentiousness of those people who think they are noble, especially that Mrs. Louise. I've had enough of those who have been shouting at me these days. Finally, I can stop talking tonight.
I saw her and you asked me to go find Qisheng by myself. You can go by yourself."
Juliana wanted to go back to the room angrily, but Hans grabbed her and begged:
"Let's just watch from one side and avoid Mrs. Louise. Let's go. It's a rare opportunity to have this kind of opportunity. There's nothing to do if you go back now. Besides," he leaned over and said mysteriously, "there's a lot of delicious food over there.
Ah, you have been their attendant for so many days in vain, don’t you want to comfort yourself?”
He knew that it was definitely not in line with Julianna's personality to do things without reward, and she would not shirk away from delicious food. As expected, this sentence hit her right.
"Yeah, I can't do so many days of hard labor in vain. Well, to be honest, I'm really a little hungry. Well, let's go have a good meal."
Thinking about the delicious food she ate when she hid in the kitchen last time, Juliana swallowed saliva in her stomach. Without saying a word, she immediately followed Hans to the banquet hall in the forward cabin. The lights were bright and the aroma was fragrant.
The elegant ladies and gentlemen were chatting, drinking, and dancing. Juliana walked to the dining table, picked out a piece of syrup cake, and ate it deliciously. While eating, she looked at the brightly dressed guests passing by, and she turned her head.
Just then I saw Mrs. Louise chatting with a man in a gray-blue uniform who looked like a general. Maybe the conversation got happy. The lady covered her mouth with a feather fan and giggled. The general raised his eyebrows.
The gray-white beard also laughed. Hans was stunned by the grand scene. He held Julianna's hand tightly in excitement and kept swinging to the rhythm of the music. Julianna gritted her teeth in pain and had to temporarily
She stopped what she was saying and asked Hans to stop squeezing her hand as if it were a rudder. Hans looked at the red and swollen little hand that he had grasped, blowing on it and caressing it, and Julianna regretted it.
It's better to let him hold it, at least you don't have to be so embarrassed like now by a man holding your hand and blowing and touching it.
"Okay, Hans, stop blowing, my hand doesn't hurt. Can you go get me some clothes? I'm a little cold."
Julianna thought of a way to temporarily distract Hans so that she could easily enjoy the delicious food in front of her. As expected, Hans was regretting his gaffe just now, and after hearing the order, he happily went to get the clothes without saying a word. Juliena
Anna breathed a sigh of relief and picked up a wine-soaked pudding and ate it with relish. At the same time, she looked puzzled at the man who kept smiling at her, and who was wearing a well-dressed but sloppy look and was staggering towards her.
"Miss, you are so... so beautiful. Can you please dance...?"
Juliana smelled the strong smell of alcohol and subconsciously covered her nose. Seeing him stuttering but staring straight at her, she felt bored. She lowered her head and continued to eat her pudding.
said:
"Sorry, I can't dance."
The man had no intention of leaving after being rejected. Instead, he came up to him with saliva on his face.
"It doesn't matter. I can teach you how to dance in person."
As he said this, he actually reached out and hugged Julianna's waist, and brought her smelly mouth, which smelled of alcohol, right up to her face.
"Pah!" A crisp slap firmly covered the drunkard's face. Juliana turned slightly and broke away from his embrace, and gave him this loud slap when she left. She stared.
She rolled her eyes at him with disgust,
"I told you I can't dance and yet you come to mess with me."
Although his lazy tone was not loud, it was enough for some people to hear clearly in the living room filled with soft music. The people around him stopped and looked here strangely, and a few busybodies also came over to watch the fun.
.
"Damn it, how dare you hit me?!"
The young man was sobered up by her slap. He no longer cared about maintaining the elegant etiquette, and angrily yelled at her, forcing her to apologize to him, desperately trying to save the face he had just lost.
