Pride and Prejudice accident

When Andrea woke up and saw the English rural style room, she was still a little confused about the situation, but the voice of English conversation from downstairs quickly woke her up.Yes, she is now living in a village called Mayfair in England at the end of the eighteenth century, and there is a town called Worstine near this village, both of which belong to Mansfield in Nottinghamshire.

Worsteen is a small town, but it is very prosperous, because there are several coal mines in Mansfield, and a large number of people come and go, which drives the economic development here and makes the villagers in nearby towns richer.

Andrea's family is considered a big family in Mayfair. His father, Albert Ferguson, is a local gentry and is very respected. He has a large farm under his name. In addition to operating normal farm industries , It is also specially used to raise pure blood horses.Mother Rowling Ferguson is a very lovely lady. Although sometimes she is a bit out of tune, she is a good housekeeper and educates her children well.

Andrea also has an older sister named Luisa, who is 25 years old this year and married the local pastor John Robertson the year before last.Now a boy has been born, named Joe Robertson. He is a very cute baby who has just learned to walk.Andrea is the second child in the family. This year, she has a handsome appearance and a lively personality. She is very good at embroidery.Andrea has a younger sister, Maria, who is 16 years old this year. She goes to a girls' school in Nottingham, next to Mansfield, and usually returns for a week every month.Andrea also has a younger brother named j□j Dehua, who is only 13 years old this year, but he likes to put on a straight face all day long and pretend to be an adult. He is currently studying in London and lives in London At my uncle's house, I only come back during long vacations.

"Annie, are you up yet?" Mrs. Ferguson knocked on the door lightly and asked.

"I haven't woken up yet, but I'm already awake. Mom, what's the matter with you?" Andrea asked, taking out a comb from under the pillow to comb her messy hair from sleeping.

"Yes, dear, may I come in?"

"Okay, mom, come in."

As soon as Andrea finished speaking, Mrs. Ferguson opened the door and walked in. She went to Andrea's bed and sat down. She touched Andrea's head and said, "Just now a whole chicken was roasted in the kitchen. I asked the maid to cut some ham, can you send it to your sister for me later?"

"Yes, I just want to give Joe the little socks and bibs I knitted."

"Don't tell your father."

"Of course I know, I don't want to be scolded by my father." Andrea said with a grimace.

Mr. Ferguson has never been very satisfied with the fact that Louisa married John, who was also born into a large country gentleman, but because he was the second son and had a partial mother, he only inherited three sons after his father died. Thousands of pounds were kicked out of the house.But John's eldest brother, who inherited the entire Robertson family business, was a gambler and alcoholic. Since he inherited the family business, he has been in various casinos. A large amount of debt.John spent almost all of his savings for this, and begged his mother to sell almost all the property except the family manor before repaying the debt.But John was very poor after that, and he had to send five hundred pounds a year to his mother as maintenance.Therefore, Mr. Ferguson would never agree to marry his daughter to him if John was not really a man worth relying on.

"If your father knows, you can take my dear little Joe and put him in his arms." Mrs. Ferguson said with a smile. Since Joe was born, Mr. Ferguson's face towards John has become much better .

After breakfast, Andrea happily walked to Robertson's house with a basket of ham and a plate of freshly baked muffins.The weather in November is already a bit cold, and the wind hurts her face, but this does not affect Andrea's mood at all. She has been here for two years, and she lives a carefree and leisurely life in the British countryside Make her happy every day.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Andrea finally arrived at Robertson's house. At this time, she felt that her nose was about to freeze off. She ran to the garden gate, covered her nose and shouted happily: "Luisa, Joe, I'm here to play, hurry up and open the door to welcome me."

The maid quickly opened the door, and Louisa stood by the window holding Joe, who was dressed like a little meat ball, and waved to Andrea. Andrea hurriedly handed the basket to the maid, and ran into the room by herself. .She took off the woolen shawl she was wearing and threw it on the sofa. After rubbing her frozen red hands, she began to pinch her face and make faces at Joe who was looking at her.

"Joe seems to have gained weight again after not seeing him for a few days."

"He's growing every day, and I won't be able to hold him in a few months." Luisa said, with a happy smile on her face.

"Really, Joe, you will be one year old after Christmas, and you will be a big child by then, and your aunt will not be able to hold you by then." Andrea said to Joe, stretching out her warmed hands Finger poked Joe's little nose.

"Auntie! Auntie!" Joe was very happy. He has always liked Andrea very much, because Andrea would always tease him regardless of her appearance. He does, let alone bouncing around for him to see.

"Joe, do you want me to hug you? Do you want me to hug you? You have to tell me, I won't hug you unless you tell me." Andrea took a few steps back, teasing as if she was about to leave Joe.

Seeing that Andrea was about to leave, Qiao anxiously stretched out her hands to her, drooling and shouting indistinctly: "Hold, hold! Auntie!"

"Little filth, look how much you've drooled. It's almost flooding this living room." Andrea took out a handkerchief from the handbag she brought with her to help Joe wipe off the saliva, and took out another handkerchief. The little bib I made was wrapped around Joe's neck, and then he hugged Joe and kissed his little face several times.

Joe giggled happily. After Andrea hugged him and sat on the sofa, he grabbed Andrea's shoulders and stood up, then stomped on Andrea's lap with a smile.

"Joe's strength has increased a lot. Who do you think he looks like? There is no one in our family who likes to stomp his feet, and John doesn't like to stomp his feet either. Why does Joe like to stomp on other people's legs so much!" Andrea He grabbed one of Joe's legs and said, the little guy was unsteady on his legs and kicked her in the stomach several times.

"Who knows, maybe it's like himself, Andrea, Mom asked you to bring something again?" Luisa poured a cup of tea for Andrea and sat opposite her.

"Yes, I baked a whole ham at home. I sneaked a little bit of it in the kitchen just now. It tastes really good."

"John received a letter from a London newspaper two days ago, saying that they wanted to publish a novel written by him, and also said that if John's novels maintain a certain standard in the future, they will regularly serialize his novels in the future." Louis Sarah straightened her hair that was scratched by Joe before and said.

"Really, that's really a good thing. I never saw that John would write popular novels. You must know that he always acts a little dumb." Andrea said, winking her eyes.

"Actually, he is quite romantic." Luisa said, "John said that the royalties he earned will be used as pocket money for me in the future."

"That's good, Luisa, you're going to get better and better."

"Of course. By the way, Anne, did Maria send a letter saying when she will be home?"

"Not yet, I think she is reluctant to part with her friends at school, especially that Miss Darcy, who is mentioned in almost every letter she writes." Andrea shrugged and said, she was very dissatisfied I understand why my younger sister likes to go to a girls' school. You have to know that she went to a girls' school for a month after time travel, and then she was extremely disgusted by the serious atmosphere inside and the strict schedule.In particular, this school basically does not teach any knowledge. It is said that the school is actually more like a collection of etiquette training classes and bride training classes.

"Maria's personality is too introverted. She doesn't have many friends in Mayfair. It's good to find a good friend in school. Besides, the Miss Darcy she introduced is quite distinguished. There's never any harm in dating," Louisa said.

Andrea didn't answer. It is indeed a good thing that Maria found a friend, but from Maria's letter, it can be seen that Miss Darcy's status is much nobler than theirs. Going to a girls' school It's just because no one at home can take care of her.Such a lady is always different from a girl from a country family like them, and the two live far apart. Their family is in Nottinghamshire, while that Miss Darcy lives in Derbyshire, waiting for Maria next year. After leaving school, it is estimated that the two will not have any intersection.I don't know how sad her introverted and sensitive sister will be at that time!

"By the way, Annie, I heard that Mrs. Brown's nephew, Mr. Davis, seems to want to pursue you, doesn't he? Annie, I think you should think about it. You have been rejecting the pursuit of gentlemen before, because those gentlemen did not It's not very good, and I don't object to your choice, but now I heard that Mr. Davies has an income of no less than [-] pounds a year, and he will inherit Mrs. Brown's estate in the future. And Mr. Davies grew up He is very handsome, since he came to visit Mrs. Brown in Mayfair in October, how many ladies want to marry him!" Louisa couldn't wait for Andrea to answer, so she spoke on her own.

"Luisa, I didn't know about this incident, and it was probably spread by those ladies and ladies." Andrea pouted secretly. Louisa probably felt the beauty of marriage since she got married, so she wanted to My younger sister also feels it, so I want Andrea to accept the pursuit of a gentleman as soon as possible, and then get married immediately.

"If Mr. Davis didn't mean it, no one would say it. I saw it at the last dance, when Mr. Davis asked you to dance three times in succession. If you didn't feel your feet hurt He said he was tired and didn’t want to dance, maybe he would just ask you to dance for the whole dance.” As soon as Luisa heard Andrea’s words, she knew that she was going to start to shirk again, so she frowned and said: “Annie, Murphy There aren't many bachelors like Mr Davies, you have to think about it."

Andrea stood up, stuffed Joe who was about to fall asleep in her arms into Luisa's arms, quickly took out the little socks she wove for Joe from her handbag and put them on the sofa, jumping three times at a time He ran towards the door and said as he ran, "Luisa, I brought some muffins just now, don't forget to eat them while they are hot!"
