In the afternoon, the Ferguson family came, of course not entirely to visit Andrea.Mr. Ferguson is here to visit Mrs. De Bourgh. She is definitely the most famous person in Hansford. Since she kindly let Andrea stay overnight, she has to thank her for her kindness.Mrs. Ferguson and Louisa mostly came to see Mr. Darcy. Louisa could not reconcile the Mr. Darcy described by Maria with the bewildered Mr. Darcy she saw yesterday. He also felt that the relationship between his sister and Mr. Darcy might be special, so he felt a little uneasy, so he took Mrs. Ferguson to see if Mr. Darcy was worth Andrea's going out to find his sister for him despite the wind and rain regardless of her own safety.Probably the only ones who were simply worried about Andrea's coming were Maria and Edward.

Although Mrs. de Bower is self-confident and arrogant, she is still a good lady when she treats people she doesn't dislike. As usual, she asked Mr. Ferguson and Andrea if they have any tutors. After hearing Mr. Ferguson say All three of my daughters have attended girls' schools, so they showed satisfaction on their faces, thinking that it would be appropriate for Georgiana and Andrea to associate with them.

After they talked for about a quarter of an hour, Louisa took Maria and Edward upstairs to Andrea's room, leaving the Fergusons chatting with Mrs. De Bourgh, Mr. Darcy, and Colonel Fitzwilliam.

Andrea just went to visit Georgiana, and she is in good spirits now, and she is lying on the bed casually flipping through a book.She was very happy to see her family, and hurried to stand up, but Luisa pushed her back into the bed with one hand.

"Annie, tell us what you did when you went out yesterday?" Louisa demanded.

"Georgiana twisted her foot yesterday when she went out alone, and there was a heavy rain and she had to take shelter in the old mill. Mr. Darcy and they didn't find Georgiana. They thought something happened to her, so they came out to look for her. Such things hurt Because of the reputation of a young lady, they couldn't send the servants of Rosings Manor to help, for fear that the villagers would ask them if they recognized them, so I went with them to find them." Andrea said innocently, blinking.

"That's not okay, you're crazy. You don't know how dangerous the weather was yesterday. Several trees in Hansford were blown down by the wind. I heard that a horse was also seen this morning. I tripped and broke my neck and died in the middle of the road, and I don’t know if the owner of that horse fell.” Luisa said with a disapproving expression.

"I know that. What I heard just now is that Miss Bennet rode a horse to find Georgiana yesterday. As a result, the horse was frightened by the thunder and went mad, and tripped over a tree while running. Fortunately, Mr. Darcy passed by the rescue at that time. Otherwise, she might have her neck broken." Andrea said after taking a sip of water, she also heard about it when she was chatting with the maid in Georgiana's room just now, no wonder Elizabeth was so scared that her legs went limp last night.

"Oh, then she's really lucky, but it's such a loss to kill a horse, what a pity." Luisa said regretfully. After becoming a housewife, she cared more and more about the pound. Losses are counted.

"She doesn't lose money, so she borrowed it from Rosings Manor, and Mrs. De Bourgh can't bear to ask her to pay for it."

"I don't care if she's losing money or not. I just care about what's going on with you? You ran out with a man in the heavy rain, and you don't want to be famous." Luisa twisted Andrea's arm He blamed for a while.

"Hiss! Sister, I'm still sick, why are you pinching me?" Andrea quickly tucked her hands into the quilt, rubbing the pinched area with one hand, and complained.

Seeing Andrea like this, Luisa wanted to twist her again. Edward hurriedly stood in front of Andrea and said, "Elder Sister, don't bully Second Sister."

"Why did I bully her? If she had any brains, would I screw her? She has always been so reckless, always doing stupid things!"

"I promise I won't do it next time. This time it's because I'm too worried about Georgiana. I won't do it next time!" Andrea swore.

"Annie, is Georgiana okay now?" Maria asked.

"She still has a fever. I just visited her. She should be awake now. You can go out and find a maid to take you to Georgiana's room."

Seeing that Andrea looked fine, Maria felt relieved and worried about Georgiana again, so she stood up and planned to visit Georgiana.Luisa grabbed Edward and drove Edward and Maria to see Georgiana, while she stayed behind.

Seeing Luisa like that, Andrea knew that she must have something else to ask, so she sighed and said, "Sister, do you have anything else to ask?"

"Of course, tell me what's the relationship between you and that Mr. Darcy?" Luisa said, with one hand on her hips and the other on Andrea's forehead.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Andrea shook her head.

"It doesn't matter that his sister wanted to come to you yesterday as soon as he lost it. It doesn't matter that he chatted with his parents downstairs. I can see that this gentleman must not be the kind of amiable person." , he definitely has other plans for treating us so warmly."

"What can I do? I helped him find his sister. In order to thank me, he has to be more polite to you, and Mr. Darcy is a very polite person." Even though he said that, Andrea couldn't help it. Think more, after all, Mr. Darcy's lingering in her room this morning is very revealing. After all, with Mr. Darcy's personality, he will never be happy to spend a long time with a lady he doesn't like. Staying together is misleading.

"You do know that he is polite." Louisa rolled her eyes. Mr. Darcy ran to Clark Manor like that yesterday, but there was not much observance at all.

"Louisa!"

"Well, I don't care about you, anyway, this gentleman is a rich gentleman. If his character is really good, you will be very lucky if you can marry him." Luisa said, she She wholeheartedly hopes that her younger sister can find a wealthy gentleman to marry, but don't live like she is now, living on a diet. Although she feels very happy now, she really hopes that her younger sister can live a happy life in the future. better ones.

"Louisa, don't talk nonsense, Mr. Darcy, we are not easy to climb up." Andrea frowned. Mr. Darcy's status is not particularly noble, but he is 1 a year The multi-pound income would be enough for him to marry any nice lady.And nothing happened to them now, it's a bit too early to say.

"I think you are thinking too much. A rich gentleman, as long as the wife he wants to marry is one he likes and won't make him lose face. Although you are not very outstanding, you are no better than those arrogant Miss Qian, I think this is a good marriage!" Louisa said, her expression seemed to have seen Andrea and Mr. Darcy together.

Andrea sighed helplessly, pulled the quilt over her face and refused to talk to Luisa again, she was used to it, as long as her sister felt that she was suitable for a certain gentleman, and that gentleman seemed interested in her , then she can imagine out of thin air that she has married someone and had children.

Seeing that Andrea refused to talk to her again, Luisa didn't care at all. She patted Andrea through the quilt and said, "I'll go and see that Miss Darcy, and I heard Maria say that this Miss's body has always been relatively weak, and now she is sick, it must be very hard."

Not long after Luisa left, Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson also came up to visit Andrea, and after saying some words of concern, they took Luisa and the others away.Andrea sighed. If she could, she would also like to go back to Clark Manor. Although the cousin sister-in-law didn't show any good looks, she would have her family by her side. Now she was somewhat uncomfortable staying in this strange room.

In the evening Andrea felt better, so she went to the dining table to have dinner with everyone.Mr. Collins was invited to the dinner again today. Andrea hadn't met him a few times, but both parties seemed to have a good feeling for each other, which seemed like a friendship between friends.

It's just that Andrea didn't have a chance to chat with Mr. Collins, and was diverted by Mrs. De Bourgh.Mrs. De Bourgh cared about Andrea's body indifferently, and then began to chat with Mr. Collins wholeheartedly.Probably the Count de Bourgo went to heaven ahead of time, so Mrs. de Bourg believed in God very much in some aspects, and she always had a special feeling of dependence on Mr. Collins, the pastor who represented God.And Mr. Collins is very good at reading people's words. In order to please Mrs. de Bourgh and get more benefits, he often smiles at what Mrs. de Bourgh said.

Andrea listened to Mr. Collins's words, and always felt that his way of speaking and thinking was very familiar to her, but she couldn't think of the reason for this familiarity for a while.

Seeing Andrea looking at Mr. Collins, and Mr. Darcy looking at Andrea, Miss De Bourgh felt a little uncomfortable, so she said to Andrea: "Miss Ferguson, you went to live in London before. Cousin's house, what do you think of that house compared to our Rosings Manor?"

"It can only be said that each has its own merits, but they are all very beautiful houses, which can be called various compliments." Andrea said, she felt the hostility of Miss De Bourgh, but she didn't know how she was offended This lady, her question is really difficult to answer, no matter which house she praises, she will offend the other.And she praised all of them like this, which undoubtedly made people feel that she was flattering, although what she said was indeed the truth.

"It is indeed a beautiful house, but unfortunately I went there the year before last." Miss De Bourgh said, turning her head to look at Mr. Darcy, "cousin, can I go to Pemberley Manor this summer? Miss Ferguson, you But do go and see Pemberley Hall, it's a fair place, and worthy of all the most respectable people in the world."

What does this mean? Does it mean that people who have not lived there are not decent people?Or are you saying that only a lady like her from an earl's family is eligible to live in Pemberley, while a lady from an ordinary gentleman's family like her is not qualified to live in Pemberley?Thinking of this, Andrea smiled at Miss De Bauer and said, "Before I went to London last year, I had been invited by Georgiana to live there for a few days. The scenery is indeed very beautiful."

"The scenery of Pemberley will be even more beautiful in summer. Miss Ferguson and Miss Maria must make time to live there for a few days." Mr. Darcy had been unable to intervene before, but now he heard them talk about Pemberley Manor, and immediately said to him Andrea offered an invitation.
