Mr Tulliver Further Entangles the Skein of Life
OWING to this new adjustment of Mrs Gleggs thoughts, Mrs Pullet found her task of mediation the next day surprisingly easy. Mrs Glegg, indeed, checked her rather sharply for thinking it would be necessary to tell her elder sister what was the right mode of behaviour in family matters. Mrs Pullets argument that it would look ill in the neighbourhood if people should have it in their power to say that there was a quarrel in the family, was particularly offensive. If the family name never suffered except through Mrs Glegg, Mrs Pullet might lay her head on her pillow in perfect confidence. `Its not to be expected, I suppose, observed Mrs Glegg, by way of winding up the subject, `as I shall go to the Mill again before Bessy comes to see me, or as I shall go and fall down o my knees to Mr Tulliver and ask his pardon for showing him favours; but I shall bear no malice, and when Mr Tulliver speaks civil to me, Ill speak civil to him. Nobody has any call to tell me whats becoming.
