Andrea didn't do any special food, just made a few egg pancakes, and then fried two side dishes, all of which are very common home-cooked dishes, but they use some Chinese methods, which seem a little different from British food Different, at least the cooks here don't fry vegetables and meat together.

Half an hour later, Mr. Darcy had already taken a nap on the sofa, and Andrea came out with the food.Mr. Darcy lowered his head and yawned, moved his nose and sniffed the fragrance in the air, "It smells so good, what did you do?"

"I'm not very good at frying steaks. I always fry them very well. I made some omelettes and fried a few dishes. You can eat them in rolls. The wheat porridge made by the maid is also good, and it goes with some Good for the stomach." Andrea said as she put the tray on the table.

"Egg pancakes? Eat them in rolls?" Mr. Darcy frowned as he looked at the neatly stacked pieces of egg pancakes on the plate.

There were only spoons and forks in the tray, but no knife, and Mr. Darcy thought, should he hold it by hand?Apart from sandwiches and bread, Mr. Darcy ate absolutely no other staple food with his hands.He was momentarily at a loss as to what to do with it.

Darcy first pleased Andrea by hesitating and not knowing what to do. She got the maid to wash her hands, then used a fork to fork some vegetables on an egg pancake, rolled it quickly, and rolled the egg pancake It became a cylinder, "Do you want to dip it in sauce? I don't like dipping it myself, because there is sauce on top of the dish, but the rest of the family likes to dip it in meat sauce."

"No, no need." Mr. Darcy washed his hands quickly, took the omelet roll, and took a bite with a somewhat tangled face. The omelet was very soft, with the smell of green onion and coriander, and the vegetables and cilantro inside were rolled. The meat is all with sauce, which really tastes special. "Well, the taste is very good, it would be even better if you can hold it without your hands."

Andrea was very happy to be praised for the good taste of the food, but she immediately became entangled. Mr. Darcy's eating style is too refined. This is not a banquet, and every bite of food is small and just right. Can only taste a little, and the sauce doesn't get on your lips.Egg pancakes are meant to be eaten while they are hot. At this rate, the food will be cold, and Mr. Darcy may not be able to eat the things in his hand.

"You don't have to take small bites, Fitzwilliam, since you have already held it in your hand, you can eat it in big bites." Andrea said, after seeing Mr. Darcy struggling to bite the bigger one After taking a sip, he silently swallowed the words "eating meat like a man".

"If you feel dry, drink some wheat porridge!" Andrea said, and then Mr. Darcy took a sip of the porridge with a silver spoon, and took a sip of the egg pancake.

This unpleasant way of eating really made Andrea unbearable, but the habit Mr. Darcy has developed over the years cannot be changed at once. He may be destined to be so unhurried all his life. eat.

After seeing Maria's condition, the doctor determined that she was just in a coma caused by hunger and fever, left some antipyretics and left.Mr. Collins exited Maria's room and saw that Mr. Darcy was eating a hot dinner. He immediately felt hungry. He walked up to Andrea and asked, "Miss Ferguson, do you still have these food? "

"Also, I'll ask the maid to bring another bowl of wheat porridge. You can have some egg pancakes first." Andrea said, pointing to the plate with four or five egg pancakes stacked in the middle of the table.

"Oh, God, I'm starving, Miss Ferguson can't thank you enough for the food."

Mr. Collins washed his hands and sat across from Mr. Darcy, quickly rolled up an omelette full of fillings, and ate it with big mouthfuls, "Who made this, it tastes really good, I haven't eaten such a delicious omelet for a long time .”

"I made it, and Mr. Collins can eat as much as he likes."

Mr. Collins was very happy to eat, and Mr. Darcy was a little angry because he saw that the food made by Andrea was eaten by Mr. Collins. He silently speeded up his eating, but he was obviously not good at eating these things. Food, in order to prevent the vegetables in the egg roll from falling out, it took some effort.

Seeing that both of them were eating well, Andrea left the living room and went into Maria's room. Maria was still unconscious, and Mrs. Molly and Diana had just helped her change into clean clothes.Andrea sat on the edge of the bed, touched Maria's forehead, and asked, "Has she woke up?"

"Woke up when the doctor came, changed and fell asleep again. Poor Maria, must have been very frightened these days," said Mrs. Molly.

"I hope she gets better soon. Auntie, you have been very tired these two days. Go and have a rest first. It will take some time for dinner to be ready. Let me just watch over here." Andrea said to Mary Ya put a cold towel on her forehead and said.

After Mrs. Molly and Diana left, Andrea sat on the stool next to the bed and began to take care of Maria. She kept changing cold towels for her, hoping that her body temperature would drop quickly.

Mr. Darcy was about to leave after eating. When he entered the room, Andrea was carefully wiping the sweat off Maria's face. It looked like she had made Maria into a fragile doll. Same.Mr. Darcy knew that Andrea had been blaming herself for failing to stop Maria and Lydia from going out, and now she must feel very uncomfortable seeing Maria's appearance.

Mr. Darcy didn't know how to comfort Andrea, so he walked behind Andrea and hugged Andrea from behind. Mr. Darcy held Andrea's hand and said, "You don't have to Blame yourself for this, and Maria will be fine."

"She has suffered a lot in the past few days. I am really worried that this will have a bad influence on her in the future. You know that she is timid like Georgiana. Back then Wickham tricked Georgiana into elopement. Georgiana I can’t completely free myself from it until now, and I don’t know how long it will take for Maria to forget this painful memory when she was kidnapped this time.”

"As long as the family is by her side and gives her courage, she will get better soon, and I think Mr. Collins must be very eager to help Maria get rid of painful memories. A good love should be able to do this."

"Yes, as long as you divert your attention, some things will always be easier to forget."

Seeing that Andrea seemed to be in a better mood, Mr. Darcy stretched out a hand to hold Andrea's cheek, looked into her eyes, and said with a smile: "I have to go home, I will come to see you tomorrow, remember not to be too tired."

"You should also have a good rest." Andrea said gently rubbing her face against Mr. Darcy's hand.

"Annie, good night." Mr. Darcy moved to the corner of Andrea's mouth and kissed, then reluctantly put down his hand holding Andrea's cheek, and left the room.

After Mr. Darcy left, Andrea wiped her face with a cool towel, hoping to lower the temperature on her face.

In the middle of the night, Maria woke up once and saw Andrea cry a lot before falling asleep drowsily under Andrea's comfort.The next morning, Maria's fever subsided, and she woke up completely awake after drinking some water.

"Maria, are you okay?" Andrea asked lying on the side of the bed.

"It's not bad. At first I was very scared. Later, those two people didn't care about us except to lock us up. Lydia was very courageous. She kept talking with me, so I was not so scared. It's just that during the day except at night Being untied for half an hour and being tied up the rest of the time made me uncomfortable."

"I was worried about you and thought you must be freaking out. Fortunately, things are looking better than I thought, and you do look good."

"So sister, you don't have to worry too much. But I'm very hungry now, can you get me some food, these two men only give us a little bread each time, I'm always hungry." Maria covered Said with a belly.

"Okay, but you can't eat too much now. I'll ask the maid to bring you some soup. You'll feel better after eating and drinking the medicine."

Andrea went downstairs to get food, and informed her family that Maria had woken up. Everyone was so happy that they all ran upstairs to see Maria. They were relieved to see that she was in good spirits.

In the afternoon, Mr. Darcy and Mr. Collins came to visit Maria. They were very happy to see that Maria had recovered a lot. Mr. Collins was very happy. He always felt that if he hadn't wanted to visit the London library, Maria would not have encountered any accidents.

"When Maria recovers, I plan to go back to Meryton. Your mother must miss you very much now." While chatting in the living room, Mr. Ferguson said.

"Brother, you have been out for a long time. My sister-in-law must be very anxious, but are you going to tell my sister-in-law about Maria?" Mr. Richard asked.

"I hope I don't tell her, but it's impossible for us to hide her, so we can only hope that by then Maria will not look much different from when she left Mayfair, otherwise she will definitely prevent Maria from coming back in the future London."

"I don't think Maria will want to come to London anytime soon," Andrea said.

"Yes, so it's better for us not to hide it from your mother. Although it is bound to make her cry a lot, I think the good deeds of the two of you will always make her feel better." Mr. Ferguson expressed his intention said pointing.

Andrea blushed and turned away from her father, for she knew very well that Mr. Ferguson was talking about her and Mr. Darcy, and about Maria and Mr. Collins.However, Mr. Ferguson was able to crack a joke, which shows that he is in a good mood now. It seems that the haze at home these days has finally dissipated.
