don't touch my darcy

Accompanied by Mr. Darcy, Mr. Bennett met Mr. Reed in the hall.

However, unlike what Mrs. Reynolds expected, this steady young man just greeted Mr. Bennett politely, saying that it was his great honor to be friends with his daughter, and sincerely invited Mr. Bennett to have If you are interested, you can visit the nearby mission school, because Miss Bennet is very popular there.

Mr. Darcy was gratified by Mr. Reed's clever and decent performance. He did this only to give Mr. Bennett a chance to understand himself more fully. His father-in-law's attitude towards his daughter's marriage is completely different from that of his mother-in-law. , It's not that I want to marry my daughter off, but I think more about it.

Sure enough, Mr. Reed did not propose marriage hastily, which made Mr. Bennet more willing to contact him. During the conversation, he showed his approval for the young pastor, asked him to give Mary more guidance and care, and hinted that when it was appropriate, He is also welcome to visit Longbourne.

Mary never showed up, she hid in Miss Darcy's boudoir, the two girls whispered together, a little shy, and a little excited talking about the young man in the hall.

Georgiana, of course, was very happy for her friend, but concealed a faint anxiety.

It has been almost a month since the last visit to Pemberley, and there has been no news of Lancer Sulton, although Elizabeth has repeatedly assured her that he is still in London and will definitely come to Mr. Darcy to ask him to marry him Sister, still unable to touch the depression in Georgiana's heart.

The taste of love is very good, but she, who is gentle and fragile, can't bear the blow of even a little bit of love.

A few days later, Mr. and Mrs. Bennet returned to Longbourne with Kitty, and Mary went back with her. She had to go home and be ready. Mr. Reed might visit at any time and ask her to grant him happiness. Opportunity.

With the departure of the Bennett family, Pemberley has returned to its former peace and order. Elizabeth can walk around at will, but Darcy insists on not letting her work too hard, and leaving the housework to Mrs. Reynolds as much as possible. I also try to stay at home with my wife and the baby in her womb.

As a result, Miss Darcy became even more lonely. Mary was gone, and her brother was always with her sister-in-law. Most of the time, she didn't even have anyone to talk to, so she had to play the piano, read or do needlework to pass the time every day.

Until one day, when she was sitting on the terrace embroidering a pillowcase, she saw a carriage delivering a letter parked at the entrance of the manor, and her heart suddenly hung up—could it be a letter from him?

Soon Georgiana was disappointed, because Mrs. Reynolds came to tell her that the letter was written by Mr. Collins to Mrs. Darcy, and also made some kind of teasing about the gentleman in an attempt to amuse Miss Darcy.

The letter was indeed written by Mr. Collins. He first expressed his congratulations to the Darcy couple, and sent God and his heartfelt blessings for the upcoming birth of the future Pemberley heir.

After saying a half-page full of auspicious words, Collins changed his pen and talked about another issue that worried him. To be precise, this incident deeply disturbed the esteemed Mrs. Catherine de Bourgh.

Her old man learned from Mrs. Collins that Baron Sulton's family had recently established a friendship with Pemberley. The Dunton family intended to marry Pemberley and let their son marry Miss Darcy, but the Darcy couple did not seem to object, at least at Earl Hudler's birthday party. The veracity of the rumors.

As the closest elder of the Darcy brothers and sisters, the Duchess thought it necessary to remind her nephew that the daughter of Baron Sulton had committed a terrible scandal. Although the baroness and his wife covered it up in many ways, it was well known by now. However, if the two families marry, it will inevitably cause great damage to Pemberley's reputation, and she must not sit back and watch such an unwise thing happen.

In his letter, Mr. Collins repeatedly emphasized the shock and annoyance of Mrs. Catherine de Bourgh, and from the perspective of his cousin and friend, he also strongly agrees with the Duchess' views, and he also hopes that Baron Darcy and Mrs. Darcy must consider carefully etc.

This eloquent letter spanned three pages, full of "Dear Mrs. Catherine de Bourgh", and shocking words such as "immoral, scandalous, defiled, regrettable", which made Mr. Darcy have a headache.

It is true that he disapproved of the act of wanton elopement in disregard of the worldly morals and the feelings of his relatives, and he never expected that the seemingly well-educated, dignified and reserved Miss Sulton would do such a shocking act. Apart from feeling sorry, she also regretted her mistakes in understanding people.

To tell the truth, such a scandal in the family will definitely make her relatives suffer. In the future, any family with a little status and reputation will have some concerns when they marry the Salton family.

So, what should Georgiana do, she is obviously in love with Mr. Sulton, and the young man's delay in coming, is it because of insufficient love for Georgiana, or lack of courage in this matter? ?

"Honey?" Seeing that her husband was silent for a long time and his face was solemn, Elizabeth called him on her own initiative.

She knew what her husband was worried about, but in this matter, she believed that Lancer must fight for Georgiana as a person.

"Ah, what's the matter, Lizzie, are you uncomfortable?" Darcy asked nervously.

"No, I'm fine. I want to know..." Elizabeth thought for a while, thinking about how to word it properly, and after much deliberation, she decided to communicate with her husband in the most direct and candid way, "My dear, I should like to know how you would answer Mr. Sulton if he came to propose to Georgiana. You know, Georgiana wants your blessing more than anything."

"Well, Lizzie, you asked so suddenly..." For Darcy, this was not an easy question to answer.

"It's not sudden at all. Mr. Sulton and Georgiana are in love with each other. You know it very well, don't you?"

"But, Lizzie..."

"Or, do you think that Mr. Sulton is no longer worthy of decent happiness after what happened to Miss Sulton? Just like Lydia, her parents and sisters should be ashamed of her for the rest of her life?"

"Ah, why do you think so? I don't mean that at all!" Darcy was so surprised that he hurried over, grabbed Elizabeth's waist, looked at her solemnly and said, "Indeed, I once You've said very wrong things, but I think I've totally convinced you of my remorse and rediscovery these days we've been together, haven't I, Lizzie?"

The husband's excessive concern and sincere attitude made Elizabeth both funny and moved. She raised her arms and put her arms around her husband's neck, making fun of her husband with a little kindness and helplessness, "Can you relax a little bit? It’s been a long time since I felt a serious conversation atmosphere. Of course I believe you, my dear, I mean, since you don’t mind Lydia’s business anymore, you should be able to accept Mr. Sulton, right?”

The most important reason why Darcy helped solve Lydia and Wickham's marriage was that he didn't want Elizabeth to suffer, and secondly, he wanted to make amends for himself by concealing Wickham's scandal.

However, the education he received and the principles of dealing with people did not allow him to regard "elopement" as a trivial matter that had nothing to do with his family, so it was really difficult for him to answer Elizabeth's question immediately with "yes" or "no". .

Elizabeth waited quietly and patiently, giving Darcy enough time to weigh and consider, and his prudence was also a virtue she appreciated.

Finally, Darcy nodded slowly, "Well, my dear, if Mr. Sulton has enough courage and sincerity to stand in front of Georgiana."

"Oh dear, if that's your answer, then there's really no chance of returning."

"What do you mean?"

"Look, he doesn't seem to lack courage at all. As for sincerity, you have to rely on your wisdom to judge, Baron Darcy." Elizabeth turned her head and looked out the window. On the road in the distance, a carriage was slowly stopping. Down.

It was this carriage that brought their new neighbor to visit Pemberley three months ago. Now, Darcy and Elizabeth saw the young man jumping off the carriage and striding towards here.

Lancer Shalton made it clear to the Darcys that he came here. Indeed, he has been immersed in great pain and conflicts for a period of time.

Such a scandal in the family made him so ashamed before the simple and good Georgiana that he dared not even venture to reveal his secrets, for refusal would have been fatal to him.

After suffering and repeated thinking, he finally decided that no matter what he must do his best to strive for happiness, and believed that dear Georgiana also thought the same, so he begged Mr. Darcy and Mrs. Darcy to give his sister's happiness to her. Once it is in his hands, he will definitely cherish it like his own life and belief!

The elder brother solemnly agreed to his request, which made Lancer ecstatic, but out of mutual honesty and responsibility, he also confided to the Darcys about his sister's current situation.

In a small manor in the far suburbs of Paris, Miss Salton was lying on the window sill in a daze. At the end of the field of vision, there were a few cows grazing on the grass, and a farmer was sitting on a stone and smoking a little closer. Besides, nothing moved anymore.

When she was forcibly brought here by her parents just now, and she was confined at home and far away from social circles, she also resisted fiercely and had strong expectations that the handsome young man who had sworn to her forever would definitely stick to their love, break through all obstacles, and overcome all obstacles. The turbulent waves of the English Channel appeared in front of him like the bravest and most romantic knights.

But a day, two days, a week, a fortnight, a whole month passed, and Mr. Spencer did not appear. Instead, Lord Salton brought back a letter from London, which he had worked so hard to obtain, It was Mr. Spencer's love letter to a wealthy baron's widow, and every word in the letter was full of enthusiasm and touching words, wasn't it just what he had said to her not long ago?

At this moment, Miss Sulton was still holding the letter tightly in her hand, crumpled like her crushed heart.

If at the beginning, she was still proud of being brutally murdered in pursuit of love, then after discovering that the distance between so-called love and fraud is just a thin piece of paper, she seemed to fall into the abyss all of a sudden.

What made her even more terrified and desperate was that Miss Sulton suddenly realized at a certain moment that her various behaviors were exactly the same as Lydia Wickham, whom she despised the most!

God, my misfortune may be deeply despised by the male god, and Elizabeth, who has always been despised by her, why hasn't there been any sign of misfortune?

What is wrong?Why is it completely different from what I expected at the beginning?

Could it be that she is actually an out-and-out stupid woman just like Lydia?

Ahhh, how is this possible?

Miss Sulton shook her head desperately. She absolutely admitted this fact. It must not be her fault, but this era. Family background, beauty, talent, and temperament can't offset a woman's occasional small mistake?

She suddenly began to miss the days when she took the subway for half an hour, took the bus for an hour, and walked for 10 minutes to reach the company every day.

She began to miss her reticence most of the time, and occasionally scolded her female boss like crazy. At least this old woman never interfered and commented on her private life.

At the beginning, she thought that traveling to the world of "Pride and Prejudice" was God's benevolent words full of inspiration, so how she hoped that God would be merciful again and let her leave this world that all things cannot understand and endure!
