Chapter 247: She's Perfect
She is perfectly translated by Zhang Bao
There was a genius scientist who was better at experimenting with mental reactions than with chemical reactions. www.biquge.info On this day, he left the lab to take care of his assistant, washing chemicals while begging a beautiful woman to be his wife. In those days, scientists had already invented electricity, which was like opening a path in a magical world. Therefore, it is not a new thing for a scientist to fall in love with a woman.
The scientist's name is Aylmer. He has always been engrossed in scientific research, but he does not want to ignore his second love. If you compare it with his scientific research on him, he loves his wife more than scientific research. But these two kinds of love are really directly related. One day shortly after their marriage, Aylmer looked at his wife with a confused expression and said, "Georgiana, have you ever considered that the birthmark on your cheek might be removed?"
"No," she said with a smile. However, when she saw his serious face, she said, "This birthmark is often called a beauty mark, so I think it might be like that." ”
"It may be so on other people's faces," said the husband, "but it's not the same on your face." Nature makes you so perfect, but this little flaw makes me feel like a needle in my eye. ”
"The needle stuck in your eye!" Georgiana cried out in amazement, the words that really hurt her deeply and hurt her. Her face turned red all at once, and then she suddenly began to cry, "Then why do you want to marry me? You can not love me, so that it will not stick to your eyes like a needle." ”
We must state that Georgiana has a birthmark on her left cheek that penetrates deeply into the skin. This birthmark is dark red in color. When Georgiana blushes, the birthmark becomes less noticeable. But when she was pale, the birthmark was clearly visible, like a red stain. The birthmark will appear and disappear according to the change in her mood.
The birthmark is shaped like a very small hand. Georgiana's former lovers used to say that this little hand was the mark of a magical fairy who touched it with her hand when she was born. Many gentlemen will risk their lives to kiss this mysterious mark. But there are also some who have a different view on this. Some women said that the red mark ruined Georgiana's beauty.
Male observers were not in favor of removing the birthmark so that they could no longer see it. But after they got married, Aylmer had an idea about it, but it was entirely for his own reasons.
How did he make Georgiana less radiant, because this cute little hand made him feel that he loved his wife more. However, because Georgiana was so perfect, the birthmark became unbearable for him.
Aylmer saw the birthmark as the ultimate sign of his wife's grief, illness, and death. Soon, the birthmark made him feel pain, and it was more painful than Georgiana's beauty had ever given him. In the sweetest and happiest time they felt, it was this catastrophic problem that Elmer had in mind. In the morning light, Aylmer opened his eyes to look at his wife's face, and at a glance saw the flaw that made him feel painful. He had been looking at the birthmark when they sat together by the fire at night.
Georgiana soon began to worry about his gaze. His expression made her face pale. The birthmark was like a ruby in a white stone. "My dear Elmer, do you remember that abominable birthmark you dreamed of last night?" she said with a slight smile.
"No! nothing. Aylmer replied with some surprise.
The mood is sad when he feels unable to control the ghosts in his dreams during sleep and allows these ghosts to break their secrets. Aylmer, of course, remembered his dreams. It was him and his assistant Aminadad using a scalpel to remove the birthmark. But the deeper his knife went, the deeper the little hand sank until it grabbed Georgiana's heart. The dream made Elmer feel very guilty.
"Elmer," Georgiana said, "I don't know what the price we're going to pay to get rid of this birthmark." Removing it may ruin my face or it can harm my health. ”
"My dearest Georgiana, I've been thinking about this for a long time," Aylmer said. "I believe it can be removed. ”
"But there are any risks associated with such an attempt," Georgiana said, "and if this abominable birthmark makes me a heart disease for you, then what's the point of us living together? In order to calm your hearts and mine, then you can remove this little trace. ”
"My dear wife," cried Elmer, "do not doubt my abilities, and I will make your cheeks as good as those there." ”
Her husband gently kissed the right side of her cheek, which did not have the birthmark of the little red hand.
The next day, the couple went to the laboratory where Aylmer had done many famous experiments. While he was working tirelessly in the lab, Georgiana lived next door in the beautiful room he had already cleaned up.
Subsequently, he began to try a series of major experiments for his wife, one after another.
Although he worked tirelessly in the laboratory, and one by one tried to do a series of experiments for his wife. However, the birthmark was not removed.
Georgiana waited in her room, looking at the observations he had written in his notebook about the experiment. Many of his experiments ended in failure, which made her a little reluctant to look any further. She decided to go see the scientist who worked for her.
When Georgiana entered the lab, it was the hot stove that struck her. Judging by the large amount of soot that fell on it, it seemed to have been burning for a long time. She also saw machines, pipes, cylinders, and other containers for chemical experiments. But it was Elmer himself who caught her attention the most. He was preparing the working liquid, his face pale and nervous, like the face of a dead man.
Georgiana realizes that her husband has been hiding his nervousness and fear.
"Don't worry about me in any way, or you won't be able to fully embrace the risks we share. She said, "I'll drink whatever you make for me, even poison." ”
"Honey, I have nothing to hide," Aylmer said, "and I've made chemicals that are highly effective enough to change your entire body system. There's only one liquid to try, and if it fails, we're all going to be ruined!"
He took her back to her room, and she stayed in her room and waited, her mind wandering. Suddenly, it occurred to her that she could fulfill her husband's ideals. For she thought that his mind should always be renewed and enterprising, and that he should be constantly accepting those things that are newer, better, and more perfect.
A few hours later, Aylmer arrived with a glass and a colorless liquid.
"The whole chemistry went very well," he said, "and it won't fail unless all my scientific experiments really deceive me." ”
He began experimenting with liquid, pouring a drop of liquid on the soil of a pot of withered flowers in the room, and after a few minutes, the pot suddenly grew strong and green.
"I don't need to confirm," Georgiana said calmly, "give me the cup, I'm happy to put my life in your hands." She drank the liquid and fell asleep immediately.
Aylmer sat beside his wife, observing and documenting. He observed it very delicately, her breath, her eyes. He stared at the birthmark. Slowly, with each exhale and inhale, the birthmark was losing its luster.
"Oh my God, it's going to work," said Elmer, "I'm going to make it, I'm going to make it!"
He opened the curtains and looked at her face in the bright light. She was so pale. Georgiana opened her eyes and looked at the mirror in her husband's hand. She tried to smile when she saw the birthmark that she couldn't even see.
"My poor Elmer," she said softly, "your demands are so high, and your feelings are so pure and high, that you have rejected the best that this planet has to offer you." I'm going to die, dear. ”
She's really going to die. The little hand on her cheek was a sign of her life, and when the look of that mark disappeared from her cheek, she was breathless.
Blinded by a meaningless flaw and unattainable goal, Aylmer threw away his wife's life and the happiness of his life. He wanted to change his lovely wife, but he ignored that she had always been perfect. (To be continued.) )
