She had no eyes for Hetty at that moment, and only said, without looking at her, "You go and draw some ale, Hetty; the gells are both at the cheese." After the ale had been drawn and her uncle's pipe lighted, there was Totty to be taken to bed, and brought down again in her night-gown because she would cry instead of going to sleep.
The fact is, it is one of Jim's notions not to keep a horse, but to depend on Hodge for his communications with the outside world; and another never to see the railroad when he can help it. "Well, old man," I said as the effete steed began laboriously to get in motion, "how is your valuable health?" "Pooty tollable. How's them gells o' yourn as wanted to foller ye up here las' time?"
But Hetty never minded it, I could see, though she's been at the nussin' o' the child ever since it was a babby. It's my belief her heart's as hard as a pebble." "Nay, nay," said Mr. Poyser, "thee mustn't judge Hetty too hard. Them young gells are like the unripe grain; they'll make good meal by and by, but they're squashy as yet.
With eight gells well married, well married, Jane, deny it, ef you can, what can you know of my feelins this day? Hyur's Mahala's husband dead an' gone, did you say tea or coffee, Jane? Joseph Scofield, a good brother-in-law to me's lives, laid in the sod this day. You may well shake yer head! But who 'll take his place to me? Dode there's young an' 'll outgrow it.
Besides, who could be bothered with 'gells, when there was a stall to be set out and a career to be made? With that stall, indeed, David was truly in love.
He told me that he asked you to walk out with 'im last night and you said 'No'; but I told 'im that that was only a gell's way, and that you'd give 'im another answer soon." "That was my final answer," said Poppy Tyrell, the corners of her mouth hardening. "I shall never say anything else." "All young gells say that at first," said Mrs. Wheeler, making praiseworthy efforts to keep her temper.
An' while she was a-pickin' of them out very careful indeed, and I'm always glad when them sort gets a few over-ripe ones there was two other ladies talkin' over the fence. An' one on 'em said to the other on 'em just like this "'I've told both gells to come, and they can doss in with M'ria and Jane, 'cause their boss and his missis is miles away and the kids too.
