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,Bailey Button Leopard 5803, Miss. He’s doin’ finely,Cesc Fabregas Drakt, Mr. Tom is; he’ll be one o’ the first men hereabouts — you’ll see that.”
“Well,Moncler Pop Star, Bob, I’m sure he’ll be indebted to you,Sunburst II Czyścibut 5325, whatever he becomes; he said so himself only the other night,Moncler Beauregard, when he was talking of you.”
“Eh,Kurtki Woolrich, 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 does. Lors! I’m no better nor a tilted bottle, I ar’n’t — I can’t stop mysen when once I begin. But you look rarely, Miss; it does me good to see you. What do you say now, Prissy?”— here Bob turned to his wife — “Isn’t it all come true as I said? Though there isn’t many sorts o’ goods as I can’t over-praise when I set my tongue to’t.”
Mrs. Bob’s small nose seemed to be following the example of her eyes in turning up reverentially toward Maggie, but she was able now to smile and curtsey, and say, “I’d looked forrard like aenything to seein’ you, Miss, for my husband’s tongue’s been runnin’ on you,Moncler Polo Skjorte, like as if he was light-headed, iver since first he come a-courtin’ on me.”
“Well, well,” said Bob, looking rather silly. “Go an’ see after the taters, else Mr. Tom ‘ull have to wait for ’em.”
“I hope Mumps is friendly with Mrs. Jakin, Bob,” said Maggie, smiling. “I remember you used to say he wouldn’t like your marrying.”

An’ it worrets me as Mr. Tom’ll sit by himself 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. My wife says, when she goes in sometimes, an’ he takes no notice of her, he sits lookin’ into the fire,Moncler Alpin, and frownin’ as if he was watchin’ folks at work in it.”
