[Pride and Prejudice] The right match

Fortunately, Luisa was awakened by the news from her mother before she came and was overwhelmed by the sudden emotion.

Mrs. Brooke is ill.

Louisa was very worried. Mrs. Brooke had always been in good health, but this time the fever seemed menacing.She couldn't wait to go back with her aunt, so she simply packed up a few clothes and hurriedly boarded the carriage to London.

In the eyes of the British, influenza is a very serious disease.Fortunately, Mrs. Brooke's illness came and went quickly.By the time Louisa arrived at the Brook Manor, Mrs. Brook's illness had mostly recovered.However, when Louisa looked at Mrs. Brook's pale face after being ill, a trace of panic rose in her heart. What would happen to herself if Mrs. Brook was gone?

She never thought about this problem, Mrs. Brooke is like a pillar in her heart, she even thinks that Mrs. Brooke is omnipotent, because she has such a great mother who silently supports her, so she dares to make a decision with confidence. Those noble women never dared to do things.But without Mrs. Brooke, she is not sure she has the courage to open up the future.

"Mom, are you feeling better?" Luisa asked worriedly, changing a wet wipe for Mrs. Brooke.Although father's love is like a mountain and mother's love is like water, Mrs. Brook is like a tall mountain in Luisa's heart, with countless beautiful scenery. She is her reliance and source of strength.Louisa, who had never seen Mrs. Brook's frail appearance, was terrified. For the first time, she realized that this mother who would support her with a smile, taught herself how to be a qualified lady, and encouraged herself to support the Brook Manor , is just a fragile woman.

Unlike Louisa who was flustered, Mrs. Brooke was much calmer.She knew she was important to Louisa, that was obvious, but she had never imagined that a minor illness of hers would throw her in such a hurry.Concerned about chaos, I have too much influence on Louisa, I don't know whether it is good or bad, Louisa is coming soon, when she is an adult, she can inherit the title of the Brook family and become a countess, at this time She will attract more unscrupulous people who covet Brooke's property. She needs to be alone, and she can't be with her for the rest of her life.

Mrs. Brook sat up under the support of Louisa. She stroked Louisa's face. This was her daughter. Seeing her grow from such a small ball to such a beautiful appearance, she felt proud and happy. Pride filled her heart. "I am very well, Louisa. However, I thought you would like to explain to me what happened between you and Mr. Darcy."

Louisa glanced at Mrs. Brook in surprise, and found that she was still indifferent.She remembered with some embarrassment that her mother was a qualified nobleman, there was only news she didn't want to hear, and there was no news she couldn't hear.Some things, if she doesn't say it doesn't mean she doesn't know.

However, when Luisa wanted to say something, she found that she couldn't say it.She looked at Mrs. Brook with some embarrassment, she was depressed: "Mom, Mr. Darcy is a very good person."

Mrs. Brook sighed, her voice was soft but firm: "I don't agree with your feelings. Louisa, love is not everything."

Luisa's eyes widened, then she fell silent.She knew it, so she consciously didn't want to be attracted to Mr. Darcy from the beginning. However, Mr. Darcy's confession made her lose her usual self-control, and his charm was stronger than she imagined.Dazzled by joy and that damned love, I have long forgotten the initial consideration. Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't say anything, didn't express anything, everything was in time.

Mrs. Brook's wish is not simply wishing for Louisa's happiness.She is a good mother, but she is also a woman from an ancient noble family. Her family's sense of honor and inheritance of the family are engraved in her bones.Louisa could marry a poor and declining nobleman, but not such a man with no family background.

Even if the nobles are in decline, they still have energy that ordinary people can't imagine.Nobles of the same origin will extend a helping hand to you when necessary. Among the in-laws, there will always be someone who has power in the government council, and can even speak in front of the queen. This is the power of these nobles , It's just that they are always stingy in using them when they are not necessary.

But what does an upstart have?A pile of property, and an industry in a rapidly changing mall.You never know if those amorous pounds will still be in his pocket the next second.There is no guarantee, which is the scariest thing.

"I understand, Mom, please give me some time." Luisa opened her mouth and finally said this.She knew Mrs. Brook's intention. Her child would inherit her title in the future. He would be an Earl and take on the responsibility of Brook Manor.It is difficult for the mother's generation of contacts to be passed on to his era, and the contacts of myself and my future husband will be the resources my children will have in the future.The nobles who have no right to speak in the government are sad, even with an empty title, it is much better than doing nothing.At that time, a family's connections were often more important than property.And all of this is what Mr. Darcy does not have.

It was the first time she felt so uncomfortable, even if she was betrayed and abandoned by her relatives in her previous life, she never felt such suffocation.She wanted to cry, but found that her eyes were dry and uncomfortable, but if she wanted to abandon the inheritance of the Brook family and choose to be with Mr. Darcy selfishly, then not only Mr. Darcy, but she would also look down on herself.She sighed, buried herself in the quilt, and let go of her thoughts. She wanted to calm down and think about how to face this love that had just sprouted but was about to be snuffed out by herself. She could feel her trembling hands and heart She was reluctant to give up, but her responsibilities and obligations prompted her to make a quick decision. She felt like Hamlet, trapped in hesitation, but in the end she still had to choose to take on everything.

The next day, Luisa had recovered. She smiled and walked as if nothing had happened, but she was full of unspeakable sadness.When facing Mrs. Brooke, she forced a smile on her face, as if nothing had happened.

Although Mrs. Brook felt distressed, she was still unwilling to say anything.If Louisa chooses an upstart like Earl Wilde, then even if she is dissatisfied, she will choose blessing.Because they have gradually revealed their power on the political stage. Mr. Dashey has no title, no official position, and only a piece of purchased land and commercial property. Such a man will not belong to the Brook family. Good match.If you want the Brook family to go further, a man who has the right to speak in the government and even the parliament is especially important.

A marriage, if there is no right family, then the most likely result will be a bunch of resentful couples. The disconnection of thoughts and life will make a pair of people who love each other drift away. Mrs. Brook has seen too many such things , even my shrewd younger sister chose a wrong marriage under the trend of love. After the magic power of love disappeared, the gap between the expectations of both parties and the reality would make them start to regret and even act inappropriately.Mrs. Brook never thought that there would be a couple who loved each other the most in this world, she only thought they were the most suitable.

Luisa understands this, but there is always a gap between understanding and being able to do it.She is a very emotional person, she is willing to be hurt by her relatives in her previous life, not because she is weak, but because she longs for family affection.Compared with the love that she has never been in contact with, family affection occupies a greater weight in her heart, but when she really wants to give up on love, she finds out sadly that this feeling is so painful that it is too painful to let go.

Bad things always come one after another. When Luisa stayed in the manor to take care of her mother, the person in charge of the Chinese restaurant sent a letter to Luisa.

The last time a Chinese restaurant was smashed, it was the Baroness White who instigated it.She didn't know Mr. Darcy's power in business, she only cared about whether she could destroy the Chinese restaurant and replace it.She is really eager to own an asset of her own. The life she longs for is to own a huge property, and let people respectfully call herself a baroness, instead of being despised and trampled like now.For a mere few hundred pounds, she even needs to make promises to those rich lovers! Mr. A is a rogue-like character, but he has a moving face. He knows what these sad noble ladies are thinking.He encouraged her, hoping to profit from it. Baroness White wanted to get rid of such a life, so she made such a rude and ineffective provocation in a whim.

However, when her so-called "conspiracy" failed, because Mr. Darcy did not deal with it in time, her heart swelled even more.This time, the person in charge caught someone in the kitchen, and that person came to poison.And this letter is to ask Luisa what to do.

Louisa was a little distraught. She remembered that the Chinese restaurant was a joint venture between herself and Mr. Darcy, and she couldn't express her panic.Thinking of Mrs. White, she only remembered that she was a stupid woman who was fascinated by jealousy and vanity. It is not strange for such a woman to do such a thing.She can find a lover for money, so she can naturally commit crimes for money. Maybe she never thinks that she will be caught. A woman like her has never even been educated as a lady, so how can she understand the circle of high society? around?It was already her luck that Baron White would marry her, but she was always dissatisfied, so let her lose everything from the root.There is a saying in China that raising tigers is a problem.Cutting the weeds without removing the roots is cruel to oneself.

Luisa lowered her eyes and started replying.After the letter was delivered, she kept thinking, what would she do if it was Mr. Darcy?Will Mr. Darcy approve of his behavior?She knew she shouldn't, but she couldn't help but think about it.

The author has something to say: Well...well, just get entangled.
