You go and surprise your father , and I 'll stir up old Brooke . It would be a glorious joke . Let 's do it , Jo . We 'll leave a letter saying we are all right , and trot off at once . I 've got money enough . It will do you good , and no harm , as you go to your father . '' For a moment Jo looked as if she would agree , for wild as the plan was , it just suited her .

Do n't tempt me , Teddy , it 's a crazy plan . '' `` That 's the fun of it , '' began Laurie , who had got a willful fit on him and was possessed to break out of bounds in some way . `` Hold your tongue ! '' cried Jo , covering her ears .

'' `` I know Meg would wet-blanket such a proposal , but I thought you had more spirit , '' began Laurie insinuatingly . `` Bad boy , be quiet ! Sit down and think of your own sins , do n't go making me add to mine . If I get your grandpa to apologize for the shaking , will you give up running away ? ''
