Chapter 56

The next morning, Elizabeth got up early.She ordered the housekeeper's wife to make a beef pie and Yorkie pudding, and then she sat at the dining-room table and turned the pages of Mr. Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations.

Today's black tea added two spoonfuls of sugar and felt a bit bitter. Elizabeth thought about it and added a third spoonful of sugar.

The smell of beef pie wafted from the kitchen, and she took a deep breath, feeling better about the good things.

In fact, the critics are not completely unreasonable.If she had more contact with society and politics, she might really be able to write some more profound novels.

Elizabeth didn't have much ambition, but she felt that reading books on this topic might be useful for her future exchanges with gentlemen.

Reading time is always very fast, she felt that before turning a few pages, the Gardiners, sisters and nephew all went downstairs.

"This is really delicious. I haven't had such a rich breakfast for a long time." Mrs. Gardiner sighed.

"Thank you, Liz," Manli thanked.

"Thank you." Lydia poked at Elizabeth's clothes wryly.

Lydia originally preferred to be in the middle of the table, usually diagonally across from Elizabeth's seat.But she chose to sit next to her today, obviously with ulterior motives.

Elizabeth took a sip of Yorkie pudding with a downcast face, and smiled secretly.

My sister was angry and didn't need to be comforted, she got better by herself.This was beyond her expectation.

It seems that today's luck is not bad.

"You didn't quarrel with Mr. Darcy last night, Liz?" asked Lydia in a low voice.

"There is no quarrel, but there seems to be a little conflict." Elizabeth took a bite of the beef pie, and felt that the taste of the beef pie was good today.

"It's no wonder there are no contradictions." Lydia snorted softly, "If you hide it like this, no one will be happy."

"Why, are you not angry now?" Elizabeth patted Lydia's head.

Lydia turned her head away wryly.After a while, seeing that Elizabeth hadn't moved, she turned her head and whispered, "Of course I'm still angry!"

"Oh." Elizabeth took another mouthful of pudding and smiled.

"You have to make it up to me," Lydia murmured.

"How to compensate, tell me?"

As soon as she finished asking, she saw Lydia's face blushing rapidly.Elizabeth immediately understood: "Got it, I will insist on "writing" with you in the future until your Mr. Lefroy is satisfied with you, okay?"

"I don't want to write to you..." Lydia trailed off, then nodded reluctantly.

"The History of Tom Jones the Outcast, have you finished?"

Lydia: "..."

Lydia whispered, "Read a chapter or two."

Elizabeth: "One chapter or two?"

Lydia: "..."

Lydia: "Half a chapter."

Elizabeth touched her head: "You still have to work harder. Mr. Tom Lefroy still likes scholars."

"understood."

Lydia was silent for a while, and asked a little anxiously: "What about Mr. Darcy, is Mr. Darcy okay? Liz, I feel a little sorry for you. I shouldn't have said that in front of him yesterday."

"Mr. Darcy..." Elizabeth opened her mouth, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Mr. Gardiner.

The author has something to say:

I'm so sorry, TT.When I saved the manuscript the day before yesterday, I thought I could finish coding, so I published it on time.Then forget about it.Now fill up a thousand words~

Playing in Xi'an, I was notified that many scenic spots are all closed, Gu Gu TT.
