But she presently came back walking with new courage a little way behind her husband, who showed the brilliancy of his blue eyes and regular white teeth in the doorway, bowing respectfully.
“How do you do, Bob?” said Maggie, coming forward and putting out her hand to him; “I always meant to pay your wife a visit, and I shall come another day on purpose for that, if she will let me. But I was obliged to come to-day to speak to my brother.”
“He’ll be in before long, Miss. He’s doin’ finely, Mr. Tom is; he’ll be one o’ the first men hereabouts — you’ll see that.”
“Well, Bob, I’m sure he’ll be indebted to you, whatever he becomes; he said so himself only the other night, when he was talking of you.”
“Eh, Miss, that’s his way o’ takin’ it. But I think the more on’t when he says a thing, because his tongue doesn’t overshoot him as mine Butch Goring Jersey does. Lors!

“Well, well,” said Bob, looking rather silly. Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra “Go an’ see after the taters, else Mr. Naiset Nike LunarGlide+4 Tom ‘ull have to wait for ’em.”
“I hope Mumps is Brad Marchand Jersey friendly with Mrs. Jakin, Bob,” said Maggie, smiling. “I remember you used to say he wouldn’t like your marrying.”
“Eh, Miss,” said Bob, “he made up his mind to’t when he see’d what a little un she was. He pretends not to see her mostly, or else to think as she isn’t full-growed. But about Johnny Gaudreau Jersey Mr. Tom, Miss,” Nike LunarGlide+4 said Bob, speaking lower and looking serious, “he’s as close as a iron biler, he is; but I’m a ‘cutish chap, an’ when I’ve left off carrying my pack, an’ am at Nike Air Max TN Męskie a loose end, I’ve got more brains nor I know what to do wi’, an’ I’m forced to busy myself wi’ other folks’s insides. An’ it worrets me as Mr. Tom’ll sit by himself Chris Chelios Jersey so glumpish, a-knittin’ his brow, an’ a-lookin’ at the fire of a night. He should be a bit livelier now, a fine young fellow like him.

“He thinks so much about business,” said Maggie.
