D
Mrs Rachel Lynde was a curious woman. She knew everything about Avonlea.
Mrs Rachel lived in a part of Avonlea called Lynde's Hollow. She saw everyone coming into town and everyone going out. Mrs Rachel was more curious than most people, but she was also very helpful.
Today she was very curious about Matthew Cuthbert. Matthew was dressed in his best clothes and he was driving his horse and buggy past her house.
“Where is Matthew Cuthbert going?” she asked herself.
“I can go to Green Gables and ask Marilla,” she thought.
Marilla was Matthew's sister. Marilla and Matthew lived together at Green Gables. Green Gables was a big house. It was far from the main road.
Mrs Rachel knocked on the kitchen door and went into the house. The kitchen at Green Gables was a nice room, and it was so tidy. Marilla Cuthbert was seated in her chair and the table behind her was set for supper. There were three plates on the table. Mrs Rachel was very confused(迷惑不解的).
“Good evening, Rachel,” Marilla said kindly. “Come in and sit down. How is your family?”
Marilla was a tall, thin woman. She had dark hair. She looked like a severe woman, but her mouth was soft. Maybe she laughed sometimes. The women were very different but they were friends.
“We're all quite well,” said Mrs Rachel. “But I thought that you weren't well because I saw Matthew leaving today. Was he going to the doctor's?”
Marilla replied patiently, “Oh, no, we're quite well. Matthew went to Bright River. We're getting a little boy from an orphanage(孤儿院) in Nova Scotia and he's coming on the train this evening.”
Mrs Rachel was so surprised that she wasn't able to speak for five seconds.
