don't touch my darcy

At the dinner, the host politely invited the Darcys to sit in honorable seats. Miss Sulton sat next to Lydia, but she politely proposed to exchange seats with Mrs. Bennett, so that it would be convenient for the mother and daughter to talk freely. up.

Mrs. Bennet was naturally grateful, and praised Miss Sulton as the most understanding sweet girl.

Elizabeth was really worried at the beginning, wondering if her mother and sister would talk non-stop from beginning to end when they got together, and they would be full of topics that were not on the table.

Soon she realized that she was worrying too much. It is true that Mrs. Bennett, who had received such a big surprise, could not have a quiet meal, because she really had too many intimate things to say to Lydia, but she could see that she was Try to restrain yourself, sometimes your voice and movements are a little louder, and when you wake up, you will cast uneasy eyes on Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy.

This made Elizabeth feel sorry. If this were in Longbourne, her mother would have hugged and kissed Lydia heartily.

However, what worries her the most is not whether her mother and sister will lose their manners, but Darcy who is silent by her side.

Although he has never been good at social occasions, he does not speak too much. Even the Salton family's polite greetings and compliments, he is hasty and perfunctory. It can be seen that this makes the master's family gradually a little Embarrassing, at last Mr. Salton simply stopped talking.

Elizabeth could only sigh and rejoice secretly in her heart.

She knew very well that if it was possible, Darcy would have walked away the moment he stepped into this hall, because sitting here was George Wickham, the man who had cheated on his beloved wife and sister.

Fortunately, Georgiana was at home, otherwise Elizabeth couldn't imagine how terrible the scene would be when she saw Wickham!

Mrs. Bennet and Lydia were in a league of their own, while the rest of the gentlemen chatted among themselves, and none of them wanted to make fun of Mr. Darcy.

Elizabeth had nothing to do about this, and could only touch Darcy's arm lightly while no one was paying attention, expressing her understanding and comfort to her husband.

Miss Sulton has a panoramic view of all kinds of subtleties, and she knows it well. After the almost gaffe just now, she has learned a lesson. Slowing down, she was finally able to control her words and deeds, and decided to start with Mrs. Darcy to attract Mr. Darcy's attention.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Mrs. Darcy." Miss Sulton took the initiative to talk to Elizabeth. "Last week, I was honored to entertain you, allowing me to see the most beautiful architecture and sculpture art in England."

"It's an honor for Mr. Darcy and I to receive your compliment." Miss Sulton's accusation was very decent, and Elizabeth's most appropriate conversation must be naturally brought with the host of Pemberley.

As a result, Mr. Darcy had to turn his face and give Miss Sulton a little nod to express his thanks.

Apart from the meeting between the guest and the host just now, this was the first time the male god greeted him, and it was still so close!

There was no particular enthusiasm in his eyes, but what was it?This is the real him, not those superficial men who casually court ladies!

His tough lines, handsome facial features, and his serious expression that fully showed his calmness and grandeur are all clearly seen. In comparison, Mrs. Darcy sitting beside him is really thin and boring, even It is her eyes that the author has deliberately praised, and there may not be anything particularly charming about them!

Seeing her daughter chatting with the Darcys, the atmosphere finally became more harmonious and natural. Mrs. Sulton quickly took advantage of the opportunity to join the conversation circle. Miss West's character, can all England entertain a second?

"Mr. Darcy, please give my regards to your sister, and wish her a speedy recovery."

"Thank you for your kindness, ma'am."

"By the way, we got news from the palace that you will be knighted by His Majesty soon, isn't that right, Mr. Sulton?" Darcy's response aroused Mrs. Sulton's enthusiasm even more, and put The husband was drawn in.

"Yes, this really matches Pemberley's generational honor." Mr. Shalton's compliment was full of sincerity.

This news surprised even Elizabeth. It was too important for her husband and the Darcy family. As a wife, she knew nothing about it.

Come to think of it, that's why Darcy wanted to go to London with him last month, right?

Despite this, Elizabeth still smiled and bowed slightly with her husband to express her acceptance and thanks for the host's kindness.

However, her surprised eyes flashed quickly and fell into Miss Sulton's eyes, which made the latter feel even more emotional and proud.

The little squire's daughter, so uninformed, cares nothing for her husband's business, poor Mr. Darcy, who bears the lintels of Pemberley's glory, while his wife knows nothing but flying kites and picking strawberries in the country.

In order to attract Mr. Darcy's attention again, and to express her admiration and understanding for this successful man at the right time, Miss Sulton raised the wine glass in front of her, opened her vermilion lips, and said softly and sweetly: "Mr. Darcy, Mr. Darcy Mrs. Xi, please allow me..."

"Oh, knighted? This is really great news!" Miss Sulton was interrupted by a high-pitched and sharp cheer just as she opened her mouth. Lydia slapped the table excitedly and looked at Elizabeth, "Lizzie, you're going to be a lady! It's a wonderful thing, isn't it, dear?"

Her last sentence was addressed to her husband, Mr. Wickham.

Elizabeth was having a headache for Lydia's faux pas, worrying about how to signal her to be quieter, but unexpectedly, Wickham was involved again, so Elizabeth's complexion changed slightly, and she subconsciously looked at Mr. Darcy.

Sure enough, his cheeks, which were originally slightly relaxed, tightened up again in an instant, leaking a thin iron-blue color, and stared straight ahead, desperately trying not to look at the person he hated so much.

Feelings of tenderness and compassion filled Miss Sulton's bosom at once.

See, see, what pain and humiliation this woman's wretched relations have caused dear Mr. Darcy!

It's a pity that Mrs. Bennet and Lydia didn't know about the festivities between Darcy and Wickham at all. The overjoyed mother-in-law could only keep repeating "That's great, Lizzie" and "How can I congratulate you?" Now, Mr. Darcy," while the latter kept urging her husband, "Come on, George, isn't this worth a drink?"

"Of course, dear." Wickham raised his glass, and turned to Mr. Darcy. "Congratulations, Fitzwilliam."

He addressed him by Mr. Darcy's name, as Wickham had called his companion by that name from childhood.

His gentle and impeccable smile was in stark contrast to Mr. Darcy's flaming eyes, but his face was like cast iron. Some of the more attentive guests at the scene had faintly sensed that something was wrong.

Mr. Darcy's unfriendliness, Mr. Wickham doesn't care, what is a mere face?These years of wandering experience have already made him understand what is the most important.

It was a great loss to him to break with Pemberley because of Georgiana, but it was a great unexpected gain to marry Lydia and reconnect with Mr. Darcy through her sister.

Although Lydia is a poor girl without a penny, she has two very rich brothers-in-law. Whether she can climb the big tree of Pemberley again depends on whether Mr. Darcy's love for Mrs. Darcy is strong enough He let go of his arrogance and self-esteem.
