don't touch my darcy

Seeing the carriage stopped, Elizabeth couldn't help but ran a few steps on the grass. Today's guest was not an ordinary guest, but her best friend Charlotte Collins.

She was not pregnant when they broke up last time, but now she has brought the child back. Is there anything that makes Elizabeth happier than this?

The door of the carriage opened, and what was revealed first was a large black patent leather box. An obese man was bending over and putting it on the side of the road with difficulty.

"Help me quickly." Elizabeth quickly ordered the servant.

"Yes." The valet walked to the side of the car, intending to take the heavy object from Mr. Collins' hand.

"Oh, no, that's fine, just leave it alone, please help me get this if you can." The man raised his head and exclaimed.

He was Charlotte's husband, Mr. Collins, Elizabeth's distant cousin. When he saw Elizabeth, he quickly put on a smiling face and nodded, but accidentally hit his head on the car wall again.

"Oh, be careful." A lady's voice scolded him.

"Yes, it's in the box, but it's something for children."

Mr. Collins moved the other box to the ground, stepped out of the carriage, reached out to help the lady in the carriage, and muttered, "Be careful, dear, of course the road is flat, but you still have to be careful, and there are children Come on, open your umbrella, the sun here is much hotter than Rosings Garden."

He graciously held an umbrella and pulled out a lady with a baby in her arms.

Elizabeth immediately went up to meet her, calling excitedly, "Charlotte, oh dear, you are really here, is this baby Harry?"

"Lizzie, Lizzie, long time no see, I miss you every day!" The woman opened her other arm to welcome Elizabeth's hug.

She is Mrs. Charlotte Collins. I haven't seen her for a year. She is obviously plump, with a happy smile on her face, biting Elizabeth's ear, and whispering: "I'm sorry, I didn't want to be so presumptuous, but Mr. Collins really wanted to come here." No, I think he was ordered by the esteemed Madame Catherine de Bourgh to see how her nephew is doing after her marriage."

"Yes, that's it." Elizabeth giggled as soon as she heard that.

Well, her chum is as interesting as that Madame Catherine de Bourgh!

Mr. Collins couldn't hear the muttering of the two ladies, but he came over to correct Mrs. Darcy in a serious manner, "No, ma'am, Harry is just his nickname. Now that he's here, he shouldn't be called that. It's up to his godfather and Mrs. Darcy." Godmother to name."

"It's just your idea, don't make up your own mind, Mr. Darcy has not agreed to be Harry's godfather." Charlotte gave her husband a sideways look, and the latter immediately shut up obediently.

Elizabeth hurriedly explained that of course she was willing and honored to be Harry's godmother, but Mr. Darcy went to London and would not be back until three or four days later, so she hoped they could stay in Pemberley for a few more days.

Mr. Collins took the opportunity to express his warm praise to Pemberley, saying that he was fascinated by the beautiful scenery along the way. Compared with Rosings Garden, the grassland, lake and buildings in front of him are not inferior, or even more Spacious and stylish and so on.

The compliments came as soon as he opened his mouth, and Charlotte had to stop her husband from talking, because she saw Elizabeth's lips twitching, and she was already snickering.

"Okay, dear, can you go first, I want to say something to Lizzie that only women are interested in."

"Of course, of course, I think you must have a lot to say."

Mr. Collins carried the suitcase, followed behind the manservant who was carrying the luggage, and turned his head to take care of his wife and Elizabeth from time to time. He almost tripped and apologized with a smile.

"He is like this, and he will never change in his life." Charlotte shrugged helplessly, but no obvious regret could be heard.

"Oh, dear Charlotte..." Elizabeth sighed softly, and moved the umbrella in her hand to cover Charlotte and her child.

This meeting made her feel more at ease. According to Charlotte's definition of happiness, her close friend must be more satisfied with her current life.

She can completely control her own house, storage room and kind husband. Mr. Collins obeys Charlotte, no less than he obeys Mrs. Catherine de Bourgh. Now that she has a child, Charlotte is even more obedient. energy, to focus on the vulgarity of her husband.

Elizabeth led the Collins couple to the living room, where Georgiana and Mary were already waiting. The hostess introduced Miss Darcy to the guests. Although it was the first time they met, she was ready to compliment the lady if she knew she would meet her. For Mr. Collins who spoke, it was not a problem at all for this humble and shy girl to blush with praise.

As for my dear cousin Mary, we know each other anyway, which saves a lot of saliva and time. Of course, Mr. Collins still offered a sentence without hesitation, "Cousin Mary is doing well. It seems that the climate and soil and water in Pemberley are better than those in Longbourn." , and must have been well looked after by Mr and Mrs Darcy".

Charlotte, who was careful, was surprised by the changes in Mary. Her clothes and hairstyle were more refined, and she always had a faint smile on her lips. Out dismissive.

The servants took the luggage to the guest room that had been prepared, and Mrs. Reynolds kindly suggested that she take care of Mrs. Collins' children for a while, so that the guests and hosts could have a more enjoyable conversation.

Mr. Collins began to talk endlessly, praising the magnificent hall of Pemberley. When it comes to various decorations, Elizabeth had to be tactful and interrupted him with a topic that Charlotte was more interested in. The arrival of the wife and daughters.

Unexpectedly, this caused Mr. Collins to exclaim again, "You mean Baroness Sulton? God, I have heard about this lady. The esteemed Mrs. Catherine de Bourgh once mentioned that she and Some of Mrs. Anne Darcy's close friends, including Mrs. Sulton, did you not expect that she lives nearby? No, I must visit her, and bring the Duchess's longing for her, as well as my own incomparable Respect."

"Oh dear, you can't do that, it's too rude!" Charlotte's eyes widened.

This is not a joke, letting her husband rashly visit the baron's mansion will not only disgrace her family, but also Lizzie!

"Why, if the baroness knew that I was nearby, but did not visit her, it would be a real faux pas, and I think Mrs. Darcy must agree with me."

"Well, I think the baroness is a tolerant person, so she may not care too much." Elizabeth smiled wryly, she was really not sure that she could convince this cousin.

"No, it's because of the Baroness's tolerance that I can't lose my manners. I know that the ladies of the upper class are very concerned about how much respect they can get."

Well, he took the "ladies of high society" as the respected Mrs. Catherine de Bourgh.

Even the witty Elizabeth had learned enough of her cousin's self-righteousness, so she had no choice but to choose a compromise.

"Well, I would like to invite Baron Salton's family to Pemberley for dinner tomorrow night, so that you can express your respect to the baroness to your heart's content, Mr. Collins."

"Oh, if that's the case, that's great!"

Charlotte and Elizabeth exchanged a look, smiled a little discouraged, and thanked their close friends for their understanding and tolerance.

Elizabeth didn't care. Anyway, before leaving, Mr. Darcy expressed his good opinion of the Salton brothers and sisters, and hoped that the lady could become Georgiana's good friend.

Mary and Georgiana, who were on the side, heard this and their hearts beat faster immediately. Whether they decided to give up or were full of expectations, that gentle and handsome gentleman was enough to make them feel uneasy.
