"You know very well I never wanted to go," Billy answered. And because, being now committed to the Villalonga visit, she perversely dreaded it, she pursued aggrievedly, "I'd EVER so much rather have gone to California, Dad!" How sure the youngster was of her power, Rachael thought, watching him instantly soften under his daughter's skilful touch.
And, as for butter on the asparagus" Lizzie was very respectful, but her tone would rise aggrievedly "it was every bit eaten, Mrs. Salisbury!" "Yes, I know. But we mustn't let these young vandals eat us out of house and home, you know," the mistress would say, feeling as if she were doing something contemptibly small. And, worsted, she would return to her paper.
"When that horrible child has gone, I'll come. He may have insects concealed on his person. And someone's been dropping water all over these stairs. They're damp!" "Dear, dear!" murmured Aunt Jane, sadly. Jimmy looked up from his porridge. "How was I to know she didn't like insecks?" he said, aggrievedly. "I like 'em."
"You just instruct this fellow to keep his hands off me, or I shall have to take my gun to him." "Oh, he didn't mean any harm," Stubbs protested. "Maybe he didn't and maybe he did," replied Hal. "At any rate, I don't like that kind of treatment. You tell him what I said." "He was just sticking up for me," said Stubbs, aggrievedly. "But I'll tell him." He did so, but the dwarf said nothing.
For an instant they gazed resentfully at each other. The doctor was seriously worried. Esther felt extremely frivolous. But if he wanted to be stiff and horrid, let him be stiff and horrid. "I declare you act as if it were my fault the old boat is gone!" she remarked aggrievedly. "Don't be silly!" An uncomfortable silence followed. Esther began to realise how tired she was.
"But there are the churches and the charities, and all those long-named Societies I thought that was what they were for," declared Bertram, still a little aggrievedly, his worried eyes on Billy's tired face. "Oh, but the churches and charities don't frost cakes nor give sugarplums," smiled Billy. "And it's right that they shouldn't, too," she added quickly.
"Yes; but, Jim dear, do you think it the best thing for for us to do?" said Maggie, with half-frightened gravity. At this sudden and startling exhibition of female inconsistency and inconsequence, Jim was for a moment speechless. Then he recovered himself, volubly, aggrievedly, and on his legs. What DID she mean?
Without looking up, the editor waved his pencil towards an uncut copy of the "Excelsior Magazine" lying on the table. "You don't suppose I'm going to READ them, do you?" said Jack, aggrievedly. "Why don't you say what they're about? That's your business as editor."
"Oh, well," he exclaimed aggrievedly "laugh, that's right! I don't laugh. It isn't such fun when you've got 'em yoursel' HULP." "But sit down, for goodness' sake! You make me so nervous. You can't walk them off. Sit down and hold your breath while you count nine. Condy, I'm going to take off my gloves and veil. What do you think?" "Sure, of course; and I'll have a cigarette.
As Pearson slightly coughed again, he translated for him, "That's American for 'I don't know where I'm at'." "Those American jokes, sir, are very funny indeed," answered Pearson, appreciatively.
