    Looking at the sea at sea is indeed different from on the shore. What you can see at the seaside is just the edge of the sea, which is yellow and blue and shallow and has no connotation. The waves are gentle, smooth and light.  Caressing the sea surface.  .Even if there is a storm, it is just an occasional small churning of the sea.

    Although a person who first arrives at the seaside will be deeply intoxicated by what he thinks is a spectacular and vast scene in front of him, that is only because he has never seen the real sea.  Once you fully enter its hinterland and place yourself in the vast sea level, what you see and think in your heart is no longer the narrow word "spectacular", it is the true masterpiece of God.  , is the miracle of creation of all things in the universe.

    In the morning, the sea in the fog is vast, and the "wowwow" waves surge forward and back like huge sailing boats, one after another, which makes people feel excited.  The heart also tightens and relaxes with the sound, keeping pace with the heartbeat of nature.

    At this time, if the fog dissipates earlier, the sun will slowly rise. At the junction of water and sky, which seems not too far away, the morning glow will dye the large sea area red, and a few seabirds that rise in the morning will also be plated.  It was covered with a layer of red, and it flapped its wings "Oh, Oh" and flew over the ship.  The sun becomes hotter at noon, and the sea surface becomes calmer. The clear and deep water has a pure luster like sapphire. You can clearly see the fish swimming up and then suddenly sinking. The mind of the sea is tolerant of everything, all kinds of  Creatures in the ocean live freely here.  In the evening, the scenery is the most charming.  The sea is as quiet as a sleeping baby. Occasionally, a gust of wind will stir up the waves, as if the baby turns over and continues to sleep soundly.

    The setting sun reluctantly walked below the sea level, and the orange light spread out, scattered and evenly spread on the calm tablecloth-like sea. After the stars came out, the sky became light blue against the background of the sea.  , a few jets of water sprayed out from the sea in the distance. It was the whales taking advantage of this beautiful scene to come to the surface to breathe the sweet air.  Gradually, thick fog quietly filled the sea.  From time to time, dazzling lights flashed in the gloomy sky in the distance, accompanied by dull rumbling thunder.  It's going to rain, the wind is blowing and the waves are rolling in vain.  The baby, whose dream was disturbed, lost his temper. The waves rolled and hit the side of the ship, and the wind stepped up its offensive to help stir up the waves.  Being higher than the top of the ship seems to be a competition to see who can get closer to the sky.  Soon big raindrops fell down and hit the smooth deck, making a sound like frying beans. After a while, the rain became heavier and heavier, like a continuous bead curtain. The rain was mixed with a touch of salty sea water.  the taste of.  It is said that rain is the tears of the sea god, because it contains all the misfortunes in the world, which is why rain on the sea always gives people an unforgettable sadness.

    In the first-class cabin, Juliana was tying Lady Louise's difficult-to-use corset and listened with great interest to her conversation with her friend Lady Malende.

    "My dear, the ship has now sailed into the high seas. It won't be long before we can enjoy the charming sunshine of Jamaica."

    Mrs. Marlene looked with interest at Louise's waist being tightened, and then made a mental evaluation: She is getting more and more bloated and ugly now.  And subconsciously straightened her slender waist - still looking so beautiful and slim.  She was very proud of it.

    Malende and Louise had similar family conditions before they got married. They were both daughters of the nouveau riche.  However, Louise had better luck than her. She married an old marquis in Spain and became a noble marquise, while she only married a second-class officer with a lower status.  She has always been worried about this, always trying her best to find out the shortcomings of this "lucky man" so that she can have a little balance in her heart, and soon she discovered her own advantage: her amazing perfection.  Body and good looks.  It¡¯s not that she is boasting, Mrs. Marlene can definitely be called one of the most attractive women in the middle and upper class: she has long, light chestnut hair, smooth and delicate skin with a soft luster, and big, bright eyes that are shy.  Dai Jiao always has the brilliance of looking forward to Shen Fei.  The slender hands are not tight, and the figure is slender and graceful.  In short, she is a figure that makes all men fall in love with her and make all women jealous.

    Tonight, the merchant ship will hold a large-scale ball. All the most distinguished gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen on the ship will be invited to attend, so Mrs. Louise asked her to come over early to help her choose a suitable and most beautiful dress.  She jealously admired her friend's talent in dressing up.  And Mrs. Marlene was very happy to show her outstanding talents in front of her.

    Mrs. Marlene smiled and looked at her outfit from the slanted edge of the fitting mirror in front of Louise, straightened her elegant sitting posture, and continued chatting with her.  But from time to time, his eyes would shift to the little waitress who was trying on Louise's clothes.The proud beauty also had to admire the amazing beauty of the girl in front of her:

    Her golden curly hair shines in the eyes of everyone who sees it, making people want to touch it gently at the first sight. Her big blue eyes reveal innocence, and her long and curly eyelashes drive the  Her eyes were twinkling, her small and tall nose, and her red lips made her fair and smooth skin even more delicate. She was fastening the tight buttons on Louise, and the corners of her mouth were raised naughtily, not knowing whether it was due to exertion or a snicker.  Standing, as pretty as an angel.

    Mrs. Marende stared at her intently, thinking with jealousy in her heart that if this girl could put on a decent dress and show up at the banquet, all the men's eyes would be attracted immediately, even the most handsome man in Spain.  Crown Prince Felipe is no exception.

    "I heard that pirates often appear in this area - Hey, please be gentle, do you want to strangle me - those savage guys often rob merchants. - Tie it tight here, yes, just this way  ¡±

    Mrs. Louise answered her words nonchalantly and from time to time told Julianna how to tie the corset to make it more beautiful.  Julianna was excited to hear talk about pirates again, but then felt a little angry when she thought about her dead parents.  Mrs. Louise should be the first to notice this change in her heart, not because she is good at observing words and emotions.  This ability of hers can only be effective if used on men.  Because Juliana was tightening her corset so hard that she could hardly breathe.

    "What's wrong with you? You're so clumsy that you can't even put on a bra! Emma, ??help me. You! Go and put away the clothes."

    Juliana turned around and rolled her eyes at her, scolding her thousands of times in her mind. If she hadn't thought of the consequences beforehand, she would have definitely rushed up and taught her a lesson.  But now - people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.  After all, this is your job.  Damn captain, I knew he wouldn't let her go so kindly!  Although I was angry, I still had to obey the instructions to clean up the pile of messy clothes on the bed.  It's time for Lady Louise to get some new clothes, they are too thin for her now.  Not only did it remind Juliana of her fatter cousin Tazea and her torn clothes.  Thinking of this made her sad again.  Although she was not happy at her aunt's house, she still had her friends and partners in the town to talk and laugh with, unlike now when she had to serve such a high-maintenance lady.  And except for Hans, who was around her all day long, she had no friend who could listen to her talk about her current loneliness and depression.

    "Dear, you know, I heard that the most powerful pirates in this area are a group called the 'Ocean Conquerors'. It is said that they not only plundered merchant ships but even dared to block the royal supply ships. The ships they bullied  The loss is so heavy." Mrs. Marlene sighed with awe and contempt.

    "Yes, Captain Edwan was robbed by them last time. This was the first time he had been sailing for more than 40 years. I heard that the captain retired because of the loss of face. Unfortunately -, here  If the collar is wrinkled, fix it." After Mrs. Louise ordered the old maid, she looked in the mirror, turned her head and smiled:

    "My dear, I'm ready, let's go, don't keep the noble gentlemen waiting too long."

    Mrs. Marlene also stood up with a smile and arranged her makeup again in front of the mirror:

    "Okay. Let's go."

    The two of them left the bedroom and walked to the front hall to attend the banquet.

    Juliana tidied up her room, got bored and walked outside to look at the scenery.  The rain had stopped at this time, the blue sky was as clear as water, and a few shining stars hung in the night. The sea was a bit cold at night, and the wind blew her long hair playfully entangled with each other.  Stories of pirates still ring in her ears.  After watching for a while, she felt a little tired. She was about to go back to rest, but she met Hans who came to see her halfway.

    "Judy, you haven't gone to bed yet? Great, I'll take you to see the grand ball held on the ship tonight. This is hosted by Captain Andres himself. All the gentlemen and ladies on the ship are invited. Let's go and see it too.  How about a moment?"

    Hans is always full of curiosity about the life of the upper class, which makes Julianna most unhappy.

    "I won't go. I hate seeing the pretentiousness of those people who think they are noble, especially that Mrs. Louise. I've had enough of those who have been shouting at me these days. Finally, I don't have to do it tonight.  I saw her and you asked me to go find Qisheng by myself."

    Julianna wanted to go back to the room angrily, but Hans grabbed her and begged:

    "Let's just watch from one side and avoid Mrs. Louise. Let's go. It's a rare opportunity to have this kind of opportunity. There's nothing to do if you go back now. Besides," he leaned over and said mysteriously, "there's a lot of delicious food over there.  Ah. You give it for free.Don't they want to comfort themselves after being servants for so many days?  "

    He knew that it was not in line with Juliana¡¯s personality to do things without reward, and she would not shirk away from delicious food. Sure enough, this sentence hit her right in the heart.

    "Yes, we can't do so many days of hard labor in vain. Well, to be honest, I'm really a little hungry. Well, let's go have a good meal."

    Thinking about the delicious food she ate when she hid in the kitchen last time, Juliana swallowed hard. Without saying a word, she immediately followed Hans to the banquet hall in the forward cabin.  The lights inside were bright, the aroma was fragrant, and the elegant ladies and gentlemen were chatting, drinking, and dancing.  Julianna walked to the dining table, picked out a piece of syrup cake and ate it deliciously. While eating, she looked at the brightly dressed guests passing by. When she turned her head, she saw Mrs. Louise talking to a man in gray.  The men in blue uniforms, who looked like generals, were chatting with each other, and they may have gotten to the point where they were happy. The lady covered her mouth with a feather fan and started laughing. The general, with his two curls of white beard, also laughed.  Hans was stunned by the grand scene, and excitedly held Juliana's hand tightly and kept swinging to the rhythm of the music.  Juliana gritted her teeth in pain and had to temporarily stop her movements and asked Hans to stop squeezing her hand as if it were a rudder.  Hans looked at the red and swollen little hand that he had grasped, blowing on it and caressing it gently. Juliana regretted that she had let him hold it, at least she didn't have to be so embarrassed as now by a man holding her hand.  Blow and touch.

    "Okay, okay, Hans, stop blowing, my hand doesn't hurt. Can you go get me some clothes? I'm a little cold."

    Juliana thought of a way to temporarily distract Hans so that she could easily enjoy the delicious food in front of her.  As expected, Hans was regretting his gaffe just now, and after hearing the order, he happily went to get his clothes without saying a word.  Julianna breathed a sigh of relief and picked up a wine-soaked pudding and ate it with relish. At the same time, she looked puzzled at the man who kept smiling at her and who was dressed in a well-dressed but shabby look and was staggering towards her.

    "Miss, you are soso beautiful. Can you please dance?"

    Juliana smelled the strong smell of alcohol and subconsciously covered her nose. Seeing him stuttering but staring straight at her, she felt bored. She lowered her head and continued to eat her pudding coldly.  said:

    "Sorry, I can't dance."

    The man had no intention of leaving after being rejected. Instead, he came up to him with saliva on his face.

    ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter, I can teach you how to dance in person.¡±

    As he said that, he actually reached out and hugged Juliana's waist, and brought her smelly mouth, which smelled of alcohol, right up to her face.

    "Pah!" A crisp slap firmly covered the drunkard's face. Juliana turned slightly and broke away from his embrace, and gave him this loud slap when she left. She stared.  She rolled her eyes at him with disgust,

    "I told you I can't dance and you still mess with me."

    Although the lazy tone was not loud, it was enough for some people to hear clearly in the living room filled with soft music.  The people around stopped and looked here strangely, and a few busybodies also came over to watch the fun.

    ¡°Damn it, how dare you hit me?!¡±

    The young man was sobered up by her slap. He no longer cared about maintaining the elegant etiquette, and roared at her angrily, forcing her to apologize to him, desperately trying to save the face he had just lost.
