50. Marlena's Expectations and Traditions
The room was filled with the smell of love.
For Russell and Marlena, the smell is negligible, and the sense of smell becomes dull after being in an enclosed space for a long time.
Lying on her side on the bed, Marlena felt a little tired, but her heart was satisfied.
Looking at Russell's gaze, from ten thousand gentleness to devouring the wolf, the more she looked, the more satisfied she felt, and over time, Marlena's mind rippled like a pool of water.
Russell sat at the end of the bed with a blanket over his lap and a mint-flavored cigarette in his hand. Her eyes swept up from Marlena's jade feet, which were legs wrapped in white suspender stockings, and the hem of her fashionable nightdress covered the plump hips.
"Mr. Corleone, we should be really hungry by now."
Marlena said as she put her hand on the bed, got up and wiped his face, wiping away the sweat.
Russell snuffed out the cigarette butt and said with a smile, "Of course, maybe we can make dinner together." ”
Marlena nodded and replied softly, "Okay." ”
She lifted her arm, grabbed the pearl necklace around her neck with her hand, and leaned over to nod Russell's cheek.
"Mr. Corleone, I like the pearl necklace very much, thank you."
Russell grabbed her tender hand and kissed it, "Just like it." ”
Then, the two no longer hesitated, and they did not continue to get tired.
After the physical work, the most tedious thing is to clean up the stolen goods.
When Russell went to take a shower, Marlena cleaned up the room, it was too messy, there were four pairs of suspenders alone, and these couldn't be worn, either leaky holes or hooks.
When Russell came out of the bathroom, his sense of smell regained a bit, and he said to Marlena, "Open the window, right?" ”
"You've just taken a shower, and if you open the window, you'll hurt your body."
Russell nodded and accepted Marlena's suggestion.
When Marlena went to wash up and came out, she seemed to smell something.
His face turned red suddenly, and he took out two clean blankets from the closet and draped them over Russell.
Then I opened the window...
Seeing this, Russell smiled and said, "You're not afraid of hurting your body?" ”
Marlena looked back and saw him teasing herself like this, her heart immediately flew, and she bit her lip and said, "I, I'm not afraid." ”
This sentence has a bit of a coquettish meaning, Russell listened to it very useful, such a woman is called a woman, awesome.
With a lot of time wasted, dinner for two was relatively simple.
There are only meatloafs with marinated meats and fresh beef, and there are also vegetable cuts and salad dressings......
At the dinner table, their hands and mouths are obediently doing repetitive movements, just to fill their stomachs.
However, there was an idle space under the table, which inevitably made the two play new tricks.
Marlena's eyes paused, and she suddenly winked at Russell.
If someone else winked at him in this way, it would definitely be seen as a provocation.
But provocation also has to divide people!
Russell thinks slowly, love is not something that can be digested in a day, and overeating will only cause a burden on the body.
Good things are always accumulated bit by bit, not overnight.
Life is in motion, and although Marlena said too much today that she wants a new life, the birth of life is not so easy.
Just like planting a seed in the soil, it needs to turn the soil, clear the grass, fertilize and other processes, and it will only sprout after the test of time. Outcome.
"Marlena, the nightdress you wore today is very fashionable, I like it very much."
She was stunned when she heard this, lowered her head and swallowed the beef patty silently, "I... What I thought about by accident was that there was nothing special about it. ”
"No, Marlena, you've got a very original design! But this style of nightdress cannot be sold in Sicily, and even if it does, it will have to be sold on the black market. I mean, if you want to develop in fashion design, then we can go somewhere else......"
"For example, the United States, France, the United Kingdom...... Italian women, especially Sicilian women, are too conservative in their minds to accept such clothing, but women elsewhere are avant-garde and more open-minded to new things. ”
Marlena looked up and blinked, and she listened to his words.
However, she couldn't selfishly let Russell take her away, let alone let Russell accompany her to other cities, because Russell's career was in Sicily.
Where he is, she is!
This is the basic idea of Marlena as a woman, and although she dresses fashionably and looks beautiful, she is still a traditional Sicilian woman.
"Mr. Corleone, I'm not going to think about it."
Russell frowned, "Why?" ”
Marlena put down the cutlery in her hand and said seriously, "I can't be an obstacle to your career, because there are too many people eating with you." I can't be so selfish and say that I only want to wear clothes for you, not for profit... I'm happy with my life now, I'm fed every day, and I have a man who loves me. ”
Hearing this, Russell didn't know what to say.
There was no way he could change Marlena's mind, not that she was disobedient, but that all she was thinking about was Russell, and she could sacrifice everything just to not let herself drag him down.
"Mr. Corleone, can we stop talking about this?"
Russell shook his head and picked up his wine glass, and said, "Of course you can stop, but don't you want to live for yourself?" ”
A smile appeared on Marlena's face, and she said seriously, "Now I am very happy, Mr. Corleone, I am really very satisfied, thank you for thinking of me." ”
"Can you tell me, then, what are your expectations for life?"
Marlena got up and walked over to Russell, who moved the stool back and sat her on her lap with her hands around her waist.
She put her arms around Russell's neck and said with a wink, "I'm looking forward to the birth of our children, so that I can teach them at home, preferably a son and a daughter, and we live together as a family and watch our children grow up, and that's enough." ”
The more Russell listened, the more doting on his face became, and finally he couldn't hold back his affection for her.
"Marlena, you're so fascinating to me."
The argument just now, which was not a quarrel, let the two of them know that they think about each other and care about each other.
The thread connecting the two has become thicker and can no longer be separated.
"The day after tomorrow, how about we go on an outing?"
"Aren't you busy with your work?"
"Tomorrow I'll tell Nevino and Felisto to do something, and they'll do it."
"Okay."
In fact, Marlena was looking forward to the outing, and she had prepared several pairs of socks last time, but today they were all gone.
She decided to take advantage of the gap tomorrow to buy some goods, just in time to make the unfinished nightdress, and still have time to make another set.
And Russell gave her a lot of advice, such as leaving some space in this piece, and Marlena accepted it with a red face.
I have to say that it is always men who understand women, but sometimes men are reluctant to say too much.
