Right Ho, Jeeves
·
P. G. Wodehouse
81
Aunt
Dahlia
interrupted
at
this
point
to
observe
that
these
Traverses
seemed
to
be
a
pretty
soppy
couple
of
blighters,
to
judge
by
their
dialogue.
She
also
wished
to
know
when
I
was
going
to
get
to
the
point.
I
gave
her
a
look.
“‘My
darling,’
he
will
say
tenderly,
‘is
there
anything
I
can
do?’
To
which
your
reply
will
be
that
there
jolly
well
is--viz.
reach
for
his
cheque-book
and
start
writing.”
I
was
watching
her
closely
as
I
spoke,
and
was
pleased
to
note
respect
suddenly
dawn
in
her
eyes.
“But,
Bertie,
this
is
positively
bright.”
“I
told
you
Jeeves
wasn’t
the
only
fellow
with
brain.”
“I
believe
it
would
work.”
“It’s
bound
to
work.
I’ve
recommended
it
to
Tuppy.”
“Young
Glossop?”
“In
order
to
soften
Angela.”
“Splendid!”
“And
to
Gussie
Fink-Nottle,
who
wants
to
make
a
hit
with
the
Bassett.”
“Well,
well,
well!
What
a
busy
little
brain
it
is.”
“Always
working,
Aunt
Dahlia,
always
working.”
“You’re
not
the
chump
I
took
you
for,
Bertie.”
“When
did
you
ever
take
me
for
a
chump?”
“Oh,
some
time
last
summer.
I
forget
what
gave
me
the
idea.
Yes,
Bertie,
this
scheme
is
bright.
I
suppose,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
Jeeves
suggested
it.”
“Jeeves
did
not
suggest
it.
I
resent
these
implications.
Jeeves
had
nothing
to
do
with
it
whatsoever.”
“Well,
all
right,
no
need
to
get
excited
about
it.
Yes,
I
think
it
will
work.
Tom’s
devoted
to
me.”
“Who
wouldn’t
be?”
“I’ll
do
it.”
And
then
the
rest
of
the
party
trickled
in,
and
we
toddled
down
to
dinner.
