[Pride and Prejudice] Becoming Katherine Bennett

April 12

Had a friendly debate with Darcy today on 'Can British food be worse after all'.

When choosing a position, Darcy frowned and thought about it. I couldn't help worrying, thinking that he had discovered the trap I set in the topic.

After all, according to this topic, both the pros and cons have basically acquiesced in the fact that British food is extremely unpalatable.If he thinks that my map cannon has aroused his patriotic feelings, that would be bad.

Comparing my heart to my heart, if an Englishman tells me that Chinese food is unpalatable, then I will definitely say it from the bottom of my heart...

No, I don't seem to be angry, I just ask in surprise, are you trying to make me laugh on purpose.

Darcy thought about it for a long time, and said he would let me choose first. I politely said you come first, and then he said, then he can't choose.

Me: ... Gan.

This is very embarrassing.

Why didn't Darcy come as promised?

In fact, when I first came to the UK, I had a good feeling for British food.

Perhaps the pictures of those dark dishes such as pies that are dead in the net, french fries & fried fish that have been made into tricks but are essentially potatoes and fish, and haggis composed of a pile of dirty animals in the water are widely circulated in later generations. I, a person who doesn't care about appetite, has no bottom line. In the first few days, I walked into the restaurant with a heavy heart of "maybe I will eat shi later".

The good news is that I soon discovered that the food here is actually pretty good, at least much better than I thought.I don't know if my requirements are too low or what, I always eat very happily. There are a few dishes, such as ragu la onion soup and roast veal, which I think are quite delicious.

However, it turned out that I was too young.Today, when I started talking about the ginseng rooster to Darcy's friends with the topic "The French people you brought home yesterday are really rude, they eat British food so delicious and say British food is bad", Darcy Xi calmly told me that every dish I ate yesterday was French.

Panda's head is dumbfounded.jpg

I couldn't believe it, so I took out the British dishes in my heart and asked Darcy one by one, and the answer I got was that these dishes were either French or Italian.

And the butter chicken dish that I like the most after I got married was figured out by their chef from the third brother's cuisine when he was idle and bored.In modern terms, this is called fusion cuisine.

The problem is, it doesn't matter if you combine the style of the third brother, but the basic dish is not British, but French!

Shock! The editor-in-chief of UC headquarters probably couldn't think of the title to describe the degree of surprise in my heart.

I was as sad as a child weighing more than 100 pounds.

But since I swore to stand for British cuisine before, I was too embarrassed to change my words. I began to accuse Darcy of not being patriotic, and not as proud as a fake foreign devil like me.Of course the fake foreign devils spoke in Chinese, so Darcy asked me what a fake foreign devil was.

My poor translation level made it difficult for me for a long time, and I hesitated to answer that it meant the spirit of the British.

After hearing this, Darcy felt that my statement was very appropriate and expressive, and called me a fake foreign devil for a day in a kind and gentle way.

I:……

I always feel like he's mocking me.

It is not a gentleman who does not reciprocate courtesy.In return, I called him a foreign devil for a day.

April 12

Since yesterday's talk about British food aroused my faux-British patriotic fervor (?), I strongly urge the chef to specialize in British food these days.

The chef hesitated and told me that Darcy might not be used to it.I said, what's wrong with this? It's not that he has never eaten British food.

As a result, the chef told me that Darcy really hadn’t eaten much. Since he was born, there have been four or five chefs in his family, who are respectively good at French, Italian, and Spanish dishes.

After chatting for a few minutes, I asked, what about British food?

The chef asked me, do you still need to hire someone specially for British cuisine?

Once again, my love of England has been extinguished quite a bit.I can't help but ask myself whether my persistence is meaningful, after all, the real British have given up.

In order to take care of my emotions, the chef made a pure British dish without any French or Italian methods at night. When the bowl of British butter chicken with thick butter was served, my mood can be said to be Regret, very regret.

Why do I have to compete with the British to say that their food is delicious?

I used to love butter so much, but now I feel disgusted when I see it.The British also love to cook with butter, it's so greasy! !

Darcy was a little surprised seeing that dish and asked me if it was what I wanted

Of course I'm calling out for myself: yes, I love butter chicken.Wow, so delicious.

Looking at Darcy's performance of being convinced and not robbing me, I deeply feel that if I come 100 years later, I can definitely act in a movie.My acting skills are really good, he really believed in it, hehe.

April 12

After a hard and decisive struggle, I decided to chat with Darcy later, and the subject was fancy bashing British food.I hope that after I finish cursing, the smart guy can realize that I really don’t like butter chicken, and I won’t let the chef make it for me again.

I really vomited yesterday.

April 12

I suddenly realized that I didn't seem to come to my aunt this month.

April 12

I'm pregnant.

April 12

The past two days have been chaotic, and today I can finally sit down and write a diary with peace of mind.

When I found out that I was pregnant, I was really stunned and unprepared.

Speaking of which, I am ashamed of the screenwriters of TV dramas. They have written over and over again that the female characters must be pregnant when they cover their mouths and want to vomit. Every time I look at this familiar formula, I have to complain.

But when it came to me, I didn’t think of this option at all, and I blamed Butter Chicken all my mind, thinking it was all its fault.

Here I apologize to Butter Chicken, sorry!It wasn't because of you that I threw up that day!

I used to bless people when they said they had children, but to be honest, I never thought it was a happy event.

Maybe I'm living too hard. There has been neither marriage nor children in my life plan.It's not that I don't like children. When I see cute children, especially little girls, I get excited and I can't help but want to hug and hug them.

But unfortunately, although I worked hard, I still couldn't understand it, and many things were messed up.

It is easy to have a child, but the problem is that I have no ability or level to raise a good child.

If I don't give birth to him, he will definitely be reincarnated into a better family, and his life will start in the EASY mode, instead of living a miserable life with a mother who is not healthy.I don't want to drag him down.

Of course, this was an earlier thought.Now this little guy in my belly who is not sure whether it is a boy or a girl is really a reincarnated little prince who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, stood at the finish line of others at the beginning, and was born in Rome.

Darcy was in London on business the day the doctor confirmed I was pregnant.The servant delivered the letter, and he rushed home at four o'clock the next morning.When we met, his mouth was almost grinning to the back of his head. With his serious character, this kind of silly look is too rare. The last time we saw each other was when we were married.

For this reason, I also yelled at him unreasonably, saying that since he got married, he would not come back in such a glamorous manner for me, does it mean that he doesn't love me anymore.

As a result, he said, I don't go to pick him up at the gate anymore, does it mean I don't love him anymore.

I:……

OK, it's a tie.

My pregnancy made Darcy very happy.This made me a little confused about the pregnancy, and I didn't know whether to be happy or cry, and I felt better, thinking that this was a good thing.

Darcy was always very nice to me, and now he is even more so.To use a very nasty but incomparably appropriate phrase now, it is afraid of falling if you hold it in your hand, and afraid of melting if you hold it in your mouth.

I remembered some parenting theories I heard occasionally, telling him not to think that pregnancy is my own business, he should participate more, be considerate of me, care for me, pamper me, keep me in a happy mood, and read books and listen to music for me Song and dance drama to do a good job in prenatal education for children.

I admit that I have a little willfulness mixed in, and I want Darcy to accompany me more.Pregnancy is really hard. Although I have just started, I have seen many colleagues who are talking well and rush to the toilet to vomit in a blink of an eye.After watching some videos, I know that women have to bear a lot of inhuman pain from pregnancy to childbirth.

Because of Darcy's existence, I am not afraid of pregnancy now, I am willing to have a child, and I am ready to have a child.

But I am very timid, and I always hope that he will be by my side when I am uncomfortable, and it is best for him to see with his own eyes how hard I am, so that I can have an excuse when I don't want another child.

Hey, people in this era definitely hope to have a full house of children and grandchildren.

Am I being too selfish?

April 12

Life these days is hard to describe.

The day after I told Darcy you were going to do this and that, he brought me a watch.I taught him to make the planner. He tried it and found it very useful, so he used it to sort out his daily affairs.

And his schedule is completely tailor-made for me. I looked at it and found that he had written all the nonsense things I said yesterday. Not only that, but he also diverged a lot by analogy. The itinerary is well organized.

I shot myself in the foot again.

I only hoped that he would spend more time with me, but now it's fine, Darcy is by my side 24 hours a day, and even when dealing with official duties, they have to report to me.

asphyxia.

It seems that I have to find an opportunity to talk to Darcy about the need for independence between husband and wife, and to give each other space.

And you can’t be so extreme =3=

... feel wronged for Darcy.

……

April 1

I've been throwing up badly lately, and I'm anorexic.It is said that it is considered serious in pregnant women, and it is capitalized miserable.

Ordinarily this is miserable enough, but what is even worse is that I am still fat!

Let people live? !

……

April 5

Looking in the mirror today, I found that my whole body is swollen, fat and ugly.

I was just crying when Darcy came in.He was frightened, and immediately rushed over to hug me and asked me what was wrong.I said nothing, but suddenly wanted to cry.

He didn't quite believe it, but he didn't pursue it.

In fact, he chased after me and would not answer.I can't say that I was ugly and cried by myself, right? !

But women are really miserable!

Having a baby is already miserable enough, but you still have to pursue not feeling pregnant, to be the most beautiful pregnant woman, to not look like a mother, but like a girl.

And to make matters worse, I didn't even want to pursue it.But now it seems that I have been brainwashed, and I can't stand my swollen appearance.

What the hell.

I don't want a daughter anymore.Women in this era are too difficult.

April 5

When I walked around the house in the morning, I always felt that something was wrong. When I went to the room where the clothes were kept to look for shoes on a whim, I found that the place where the mirror should be was empty.I turned around and realized that all the mirrors in the house had been removed.

I cried again.

What can I do to meet Darcy!

……

April 9

The doctor said that she should give birth in a few days.

I am suddenly scared now.It is said that giving birth to a child is like passing through the gate of hell, and it can hurt people to death.

When Georgiana heard about it, she looked worried, afraid that I would hurt.

I didn't dare to tell her, of course I was afraid of pain.

Not only am I afraid of pain, but I am also afraid of death.

In the evening, I told Darcy that if I had a massive hemorrhage during childbirth and couldn't survive, the doctor asked Bao Dabao to protect me when he was young.

Darcy was confused by me.But this is my normal state after pregnancy. Everyone said that I was stupid for three years. I thought it was funny at the time, but now I find that my mind is really out of control, and I always say things that I would never say when I was not pregnant.

For example, I told him that if I die after having a child, he is not allowed to marry another woman.

For example, I later thought it was too domineering. He was only 30 years old, and I didn't want him to be alone all his life, so I changed it to marry other women, but the family property must belong to my children, regardless of gender.

For example, after thinking about it later, I felt that there was an additional condition. I told him that he could get married again and have children, but I begged him not to forget me, and to keep me in his heart for the rest of his life.I said that I am not afraid of death, but I am afraid that you will forget me.

Darcy was so angry that his face turned livid, and every time his face gradually paled visible to the naked eye.But he held back all the time, didn't get angry with me, and coaxed me patiently.

When I brought up a similar topic today, Darcy finally found an effective way to fight back.

He said, no matter male or female, this is the only one born.

I smiled when I heard it, but I still pretended not to, no, if it is a daughter, I must give birth to a son for you, your family has a family to inherit!

Darcy said that the kings are all women now, and it is the same for their daughters.

And he rarely complained about me.He said, your pregnancy is really hard!

I suspect he left out the subject "I" before working too hard.

But in fact, I also thought about it. If the child can survive this time, and he likes children, I would like to have a few more for him.I am willing to do anything for him that will make him happy.

Hope every child is like him.

April 9

Not born yet.But I have a hunch that it will be today or tomorrow.

Thinking that I might die, I seized the time to tell Darcy I love you hundreds of times, and told him in detail where my money was hidden, how my family would take care of it, and so on.

Darcy looked serious at first, but then changed to a helpless expression after listening.

He thought it was the story of the wolf coming again, but he probably never thought about it. Every time I said it, my tone was joking, but my heart was serious.

In this era, giving birth to a child is really going to die.I'm also really scared.

I am afraid of pain, and even more afraid of death.

I am not afraid of death itself, but I am still afraid.

Because of his death, he will never be seen again.

……

August 1, XX

Darcy passed away today.

These days I sit by his bed in the same pink dress I wore when we first met.The skirt has been well maintained, but I'm too thin now, and I can't hold it up.

At my age, wearing a pink skirt is going to be laughed at.This style is no longer popular.

But Darcy loved it.

As long as you think about this, nothing else matters.

Darcy can no longer speak now, and his consciousness is sometimes awake and sometimes in a coma.

People say that he and I are lucky and long-lived, rich and powerful all our lives, free from disease and disaster.Now that he is about to die, it's because his body's organs are too old, not because of other diseases.

I know they are telling the truth, but I still don't like to hear it. If I can, I want to accompany Darcy for another 50 years, 100 years, life after life.

In fact, I am not afraid of death, but I am afraid of leaving him.

Darcy died in a dream, with a peaceful expression and a smile on his lips.

I don't know what he was dreaming about, but I think it must be about me.I tell the kids that your dad is only so happy when he mentions me.

Each of them was crying and said, Mom, please don't cry.

I said one size fits all, and I cried because I cried, but what I said must be true.

And how dare you say such a thing.You lost your dad, but I lost my world.Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, you are still children, you don't understand.

But these are tears of joy.I'm glad I outlived him so that his last days would be all of me instead of being like me, just by himself.

I think I'll be looking for him soon.

April 5

I have a hunch that I'll see Darcy soon.I don't know if he has had Meng Po soup or not, and is he waiting for me on the Naihe Bridge.

But that's okay.If he is here, everyone is happy, if not, I will go find him.

As he said, even death cannot stop our love.If he forgets me, I will laugh at him hard and cry to death.

In this way, he will think of everything about us, hug me tightly immediately, tell me how hard he waited for me, and how much he loves me.

Mr. Darcy, here I come.

A literary forum on May 2020, 5

Subject: Have you read The Diary of Catherine Darcy?

1L bean paste

I was bored and bought a copy. I thought it was Catherine who taught everyone how to create, so I placed the order with a learning attitude.

In the end, after looking at it, the whole book is full of love, and there is nothing to learn from it!

sad.If I come to learn, I will be stuffed with dog food. Sure enough, not studying is the kingly way! !

2L Mao Ah Hua Bloom

The world is another me! !I also thought it would be of guiding significance to me, but it turned out to be a show of affection!

3L Korean Fairy

Me too... But is it because I haven't been in love for so long that I actually think it's pretty good to show affection? ?With relish.

4L big ah Lu

Just opened: What the hell, it's all about her husband, who wants to read it?

Now: really fragrant.

……

31L brother Quan's little fan girl

Catherine Darcy is a top-notch author.The book just came out today, so many people bought it, and even started a post to discuss it!

32L winter melon winter melon pumpkin

Catherine is a real winner in life. She writes well, marries well, and has a good relationship with her husband.

I read gossip before, saying that her husband was very rich, and he was one of the top few in the UK at that time.Today, it is estimated that he will be a character on the ranking list!

33L Xia Yin

Catherine my goddess! ! !The diaries she keeps are damn pretty!

But one thing to say, don't you think it's weird? It feels like reading intermittently, and many sentences are actually incoherent.

……

61LTTT you want HAPPY

Back at 33L, someone asked the editor in the bib, and the editor said that because of the age, many words are vague, and they were guessed and supplemented by later generations based on the context.Some sentences have too many words that cannot be clearly seen, so they are skipped directly, so they look very incoherent.

……

78L melon field in the chirp

Back to 61L with a bold idea.I have always believed that Catherine was sent by the time traveler. She wrote books, opened a cosmetics factory, opened a typewriter factory and engaged in finance, and she was so successful.It must be a time traveler!

In my opinion, this book is a solid hammer +1.Those places that are said to be vague must be the parts in the diary that reveal the identity of the time traveler!

I read an interview with the publishing editor in the UK, saying that the descendants of the Darcy family were so annoyed by many fake stories about Catherine that they published this book to prove the love between her and her husband.

……

91L hehe

The Brits are so boring. Haven’t there been any other writers who have covered Catherine’s affairs in detail? Countless people have sucked blood in the name of fans and fabricated all kinds of fake love stories to attract people’s attention!One will say that she was very frivolous when she was a child and had many boyfriends, another that she was entangled with many rich men, and another that the Admiral of the Navy was also her suitor.Why don't you say she can go to heaven?

Well now, you've been slapped in the face!

……

161L Lactobacillus Bubble Gum

After I finished reading the book and turned to the forum, I knew there must be someone discussing it.Did you guys not finish watching it?Stop quarreling, go read a book, I almost cried to death.

So fucking envious.Mr. Darcy simply loves templates!He is too kind to Catherine! !At first, I felt that Mr. Darcy was very lucky to have Catherine, but now I think they are mutual accomplishments, and the two complete each other with love.

……

181L pickled pepper chicken feet 222

I almost cried to death when I went back to 161L, especially at the end.Some people have always speculated that Catherine committed suicide before, and now I feel that this statement is more reliable.She must not be able to stand being alone.

……

188L hehe

Go back to 181L and stop talking!With Catherine's excellent independence, how could she commit suicide after her husband died? ?Speechless.

189L Bird's Nest Coffee

I also don't think Catherine will kill herself.She and Darcy were so in love they must have agreed.How sad it would be for Darcy to know.

Hey, actually, I just had one thought after reading the book, and sincerely hope that they can meet again in every lifetime.

……

2089L Sedana

Back to 189L, thank you.They did meet again.

……

2110L hehe

What you said back to 2089L seems to be true. Do you think you are Catherine herself? ?Then you continue to make up, what did they say when they met?

……

2213L Sedana

Back to 2110L, I'm sorry I've been too busy recently, so I didn't go online, so I saw your reply.

What they say is...

I won't tell you ^^ but I hope you can believe that they are really happy.

I also hope that you who read the book can be happy.

The author has something to say: I am very moved by the writing of this chapter =3=

This diary series ends here.I will write something else in the next episode.
