Mr. Darcy actually sent someone to fetch the spare button, and Circe was a little flattered when he accepted it.

Sitting on the bed, Circe held up the button and looked at it carefully.Although Williams made it up casually before, it is undeniable that this button is really pretty.Just by looking at its material and pattern, Sercy can be sure that this is definitely not something her family can afford.

After careful calculation, Circe rarely received gifts.Clothes and jewelry from her parents and elder sister are not counted, like this kind of small gifts between friends, even if she counts everything, adding up everything from childhood to adulthood, she can't count a few.

There are many sisters in the Bennet family, and Mr. Bennet raises a large family by himself, so the pocket expenses allocated to the five daughters will naturally not be much.Furthermore, the Bennet family did not have a boy who could inherit the family property, and Mr. Bennet himself did not have the mood to take good care of the property.Both left and right are going to be other people's wedding dresses, so I can't blame him for not being interested.In this way, the pocket expenses of the sisters will be even less.

Therefore, although Jane and Elizabeth cared for this little sister with a different surname, they really had no spare time to buy any special gifts.At most, I saved some spare money occasionally and brought her a piece of lace or a rose on her shoe.

The next ones can be counted on the head of Williams.The three pots of flowers he bought for Circe at the flower show were the most expensive gifts Circe had ever received.As for the modern day, Circe lives alone and has few friends, unless you count the living expenses that the unworthy parents put on the card.

So Circe still cherishes this button, although its arrival is a bit dramatic.Rubbing the surface with her fingertips, Circe considered where it would be better placed.

If she were to simply stuff it into a satchel or skirt pocket, she would never do it.After all, it was a gift, and it deserved a more solemn place.

After beckoning, the mirror standing in the corner ran over with two metal legs, slammed on the brakes in front of Circe, and moved its position a few times, adjusting the angle so that it could be seen in the mirror. Reflect the most perfect side of the person in front of you.

Touching the edge of the mirror, Circe snapped his fingers, and a handful of gold powder floated down in mid-air, found the target by himself, and wrapped the metal frame of the mirror.This made Amy's little mirror so happy, it twisted a few times in place, and seemed to want to jump to express its joy.

Circe looked amused and didn't rush her. When her joy passed, she walked over slowly and looked at herself in the mirror.

"Do you have any recommendations? I want to add something to my body." Circe turned around and asked the mirror's opinion.

I just got a small mirror for full-body beauty. I am excited. The mirror flashes rapidly, adding various jewelry to the girl's image.It even wanted to change the dress for her by the way, but Circe quickly stopped it.

"Oh, slow down, I can't even see clearly." Circe said with a smile, fingers pointing at the mirror.

The mirror obediently slowed down and showed her one by one, waiting for Miss Witch to make a choice.

"A headband? This one won't work. The one I'm wearing is a gift from Charlotte, so I can't change it."

"Well, if the headband is not good, the crown is even worse. I can't wear such things." The Lucas family can't afford such expensive jewelry.

"There are also card issuances. Flowers and feathers don't feel right."

So the small mirror let go of her head and turned to other parts.

"Huh? Make this bigger." Circe called a pause.The mirror obediently zoomed in on the camera to the neck, focusing on the lace collar.

Although not a girl who likes to dress up, Circe is very familiar with all kinds of jewelry.Like this one, it's a lace collar with an ornament in the center, usually a gemstone or something.It's not so common among the girls in Langborn, after all, the price of this thing is not so affordable.But it is very common in London. Basically every lady has such a lace circle around her neck.

For the Lucas family, this is considered a small luxury, but it is not completely beyond the financial scope like the crown, and it is not surprising to buy one for their daughter.What's more, Circe can also say that this is the jewelry he bought with his pocket money.It's just that mothers and sisters will probably be a little surprised.

After making up her mind, Circe fumbled for the button again.She bent her knuckles and tapped the button, and Circe let go, and the button was suspended in the air.

The pattern on the surface of the button shimmers slightly, extending from the left and right sides of the button.As they weave and outline inch by inch, until the pattern completely leaves the surface of the button, the white lace is gradually revealed.

Circe hooked her fingers, and the lace circle slowly unfolded in the air, completely revealing in front of her.Holding her chin, the little girl took a closer look.He reached out and clicked the button again.I saw that the edge of the button became round and smooth at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the back also swelled up until it became an oblate shape.

After the pattern is gone, the surface of the button is clean and only the metal color remains.Circe hesitated for a moment, kept the dark gold color, and reached out to remove the lace circle from the air.Without the support of magic power, the lace quickly lost its buoyancy and naturally hung down from both sides of the girl's palm.

Satisfied with his work, Circe hung it around his neck.The lace automatically adjusted its length, so that the former button could hang right in the middle of the collarbone.

Feeling the button in front of the mirror, Circe was in a good mood, waved at the mirror, pushed the door happily and walked out of the room.As she closed the door, the mirror retreated quietly to the corner.

As soon as she went out, she ran into the maid lady, she immediately took a step back, bowed and stood aside: "Miss Lucas, dinner is ready, the young master ordered me to treat you to dinner."

Nodding, Circe's voice was brisk: "Please, I'm just going downstairs!"

The maid obediently waited for Circe to leave first, then took a wrong step and followed behind, and went downstairs together.

Williams saw Circe at a glance, and the smile on his face spread a bit: "Cercy, you've come down! What's the point of staying in the room?"

"I'm not like you," Circe replied, straightening her skirt and sitting down at the table.

"That's really unreasonable." Williams complained in a plausible way, and suddenly gasped, "Where did you come from in this field?"

As soon as he asked these words, he quickly realized what was going on, and his face suddenly sank.

Circe didn't notice the change in his mood. After hearing him mention this, he immediately answered the conversation with great interest: "How is it? It's not bad!"

Williams twitched the corners of his mouth, not wanting to answer the question.

However, he was unwilling to speak, but Darcy would not remain silent. He praised earnestly: "It suits you very well." It was the color of the pendant and the pattern on the lace that seemed somewhat familiar.

From the corner of his eye, Williams saw the flashing look of thinking and remembering on his face, and curled his lips in dissatisfaction.Doesn't it look familiar, this is your button!This girl is really, actually put that button, put it in that position.Williams' eyes were red with envy.

Hearing Darcy's praise, Circe was even happier.Can there be a higher honor than the original owner of the buttoned piece extolling the workmanship?Touching the smooth surface of the button, Circe's eyebrows and eyes were curved with a smile.

Once the meal was over, Williams called Circe to the corner.Seeing that the young earl obviously had something to say to Circe alone, Mr. Darcy would not be so blatant to save his face.

"Oh, what are you in such a hurry for?" Circe, who was pulled away, was at a loss.

"You, you, how could you turn that into something like this?" Williams looked a little exasperated, but he remembered to keep his voice down.

"I already have a headgear, so this is the most suitable." Circe didn't understand the point of his words at all, and his tone was extremely innocent.

"I didn't mean that," Williams choked on her, "That's a button!"

"Then how can it be the same?" Circe corrected him seriously, "It's not just a button, it's a small gift from a friend, of course I have to keep it well." She took it for granted.

After the girl finished speaking, she paused for a moment, showing a look of sudden realization: "Ah, I see!" She smiled confidently and proudly, "Don't worry, I have made it like this, Mr. Darcy will definitely guess won't come out."

"Actually, I'm considering whether to return the gift." Circe frowned. "What would be better?"

"No!" The voice of Williams' objection was a bit loud, even Mr. Darcy, who was avoiding far away, couldn't help but look at him.

He realized it himself, and quickly lowered his voice again, but his tone was equally firm: "No!" He coughed lowly, and added an explanation, "This is not appropriate."

"And I gave you flowers and you didn't return the gift." He complained in a low voice.

"I gave you a pocket watch." Circe glanced at him and snorted softly, "What's inappropriate, shouldn't a gift be returned?"

Don't you know what it means to give gifts between men and women?Well, so the pocket watch... Williams blushed, then turned pale.If he broke the news now, wouldn't he pave the way for that annoying guy in vain?Absolutely not.

Seeing his face changing like a palette, Circe couldn't help urging him: "Why don't you say it's inappropriate?" This girl didn't give this gift between men and women Thinking about it, I completely equated it with the little gifts from my sisters, and was stopped, not to mention how confused.

Williams quickly poked his head out of his complicated thoughts, cleared his throat, and put on a serious look: "Think about it, this is just a button, I know what you value is its value as a gift, I understand."

"But if you really return the gift, it will put pressure on Mr. Darcy. He won't treat a button as a formal gift. If you return the gift, he will definitely try to pick another one for you. of."

"Think about it carefully, isn't this causing trouble to Mr. Darcy instead?" Williams said earnestly, with style.

"So, you just keep it in your heart as a precious gift," he concluded.Try hard to restrain the urge to make people look hideous.

Circe nodded thoughtfully, remained silent for a while, and finally agreed with him: "You're right."
