MTL - Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner-Chapter 23 "Dumas"

"Master, this is a telegram from Miss Howard!" This morning, the housekeeper came in to report.

Although she hadn't read the contents of the telegram, Tangning already had an ominous premonition. When she opened it, she was sure to ask two questions. One was why she hadn't gone to Georgia to find her yet. The second is to ask her if she is with Nicole?

"Who is so rude to tell Scarlett about Nicole and me?" Tangning muttered in frustration, but then she thought that Nicole made such a big fuss, so many people knew about it. So there is no way to find out who it is.

So he wrote back and said that he was helping Nicole to act at her request, so as to deal with those suitors. Although the current relationship between myself and Nicole is more than that, I believe that Nicole will definitely cooperate with me, because this woman will not marry him, because in that case, the manor she finally got will be hers. As for Now it means that there is an extra layer of bed partner or lover relationship, otherwise she will not ask herself for help.

After replying to the telegram, Tangning wrote another letter to Nicole, asking her to cooperate with Scarlett to explain to Scarlett, and then instructed the housekeeper to find someone to deliver the two letters. Originally, Nicole should have delivered the letter in person. In the past, but yesterday he was really drained and had to wait for two days, so stay away from that greedy woman.

Originally, Tangning wanted Caroline to make him a cup of coffee, and then continue to paint the "Double Nicole" oil painting, but seeing Caroline's expression of hesitating to speak, she asked curiously, "What's the matter? Is there anything you want to tell me?"

"Master, I-I seem to be pregnant!" Caroline replied with a smile on her face.

"What?! You, are you pregnant?" Tangning couldn't help exclaiming.

Caroline nodded and replied, "Yeah!" But then she seemed to think of something, and asked in a trembling voice, "Master, don't you want this child?"

Tangning replied without hesitation, "What nonsense, this is my child, of course!"

Only then did Caroline breathe a sigh of relief: "That's good!"

In fact, Tangning understood why Caroline thought so, because some slave owners really wouldn't want to have children with their female slaves, so Tangning naturally wouldn't have this kind of thinking, what he was thinking about was actually another question, that is the black people's children. Genes are too powerful. Regardless of whether black people are male or female, the offspring basically have strong black characteristics.

A typical example that may not be familiar to everyone is that Dumas' father, Dumas, was born to a white father and a black female slave, so he was nicknamed "Nigger", but in France at the time, there was no discrimination, and even He fought Egypt with Napoleon and was commander of a legion.

Although Alexandre Dumas was born to a white woman, he still has strong black features. If you don't believe it, everyone will go to his photos and wait until his son Alexandre Dumas (the author of "La Traviata") will restore the white features. , which shows the power of black genes. (The grandfather of Alexandre Dumas is in a similar situation to Tangning. He is also a white plantation owner and a female slave under his command...)

Although Caroline was of mixed blood, it was equivalent to Dumas' stage, so her and Tangning's children would probably be at the stage of Alexandre Dumas. Only when he had another child would they be pure white, so this made Tangning Some entanglements, he is not racist, he just doesn't like his children being black...

But when this kid grows up, you can see if he has a talent for writing. If so, Dad has a lot of good ideas for you, and see if you can also cultivate a "Dumas". Anyway, your dad and I It is not suitable for writing novels in this era, and your background is also destined to be unable to inherit the family business.

After getting rid of these nonsense, Tangning instructed the housekeeper to find two maids to serve Caroline, making sure that her first child would come into this world in good health. She also sent someone to urge Sheffield to find her as soon as possible. People brought Caroline and Isabel's mother from Africa.

Caroline was very happy about Tangning's attention, and she also made another female slave, Isabelle, very envious. She secretly encouraged herself to try to conceive a baby for her master as soon as possible.

Somehow, Nicole actually knew about this. After having a passion with Tangning, she teased him with jealousy, "I can't tell, you still like your slave girl!"

Tangning nodded and replied, "Of course, although Caroline is only a slave girl, she is my woman after all. Although the child she gave birth cannot inherit the family business, she is still my child after all!"

Then he added another sentence: "But don't worry, she is definitely less important than you in my heart!"

"But I'm definitely not as important as Scarlett, right?" Nicole still teased with jealousy.

In desperation, Tangning said, "If you are willing to marry me, then I will marry you now!"

Nicole stared at Tangning for a long time, and then said angrily, "That's what you said when you knew I wouldn't marry you~www.novelbuddy.com~!"

Tangning proudly spread her hands, "So it's not my fault, right?"

"Seriously, do you really plan to marry Scarlett?" Nicole changed the subject.

Tangning hesitated for a while, then said, "To be honest, I'm not sure yet, but she is indeed a good match!"

"Why don't you marry an English noblewoman like your good friend Maxie?" Nicole asked curiously.

Tangning thought for a while, then replied, "Because I think girls from southern families are more likely to accept that their husbands have female slaves!"

"Uh, it's true. Although the British nobles also have lovers, the female slaves who live together may not really accept it!" Nicole echoed.

"So only Southern girls are the best fit for me!" Tangning spread her hands.

"By the way, is the New York Nicole you painted yesterday ready?" Nicole suddenly asked again.

"How can oil painting be so fast? It will take more than half a month to finish painting!" Tangning replied casually.

"Then let me ask you, isn't this New York Nicole very tall?" Nicole asked sternly.

Tangning nodded and replied, "Well, even taller than me!" (Nicole Kidman's official height is 180...)

At this time, Nicole said something that shocked Tangning, "That's right, I just said yesterday that I saw this New York Nicole's face so familiar. So you painted Katherine of Virginia!"

"You, are you saying that this Catherine looks a lot like the girl I drew?"

"Where is the similarity, it's almost exactly the same!"
