When Emperor Wu dressed as Darcy's sister
Chapter 35 On the Road
Although Wu Zhao and Elizabeth were hiding in the corner, they showed no interest in dancing.But everyone else had a great time, and the dance lasted until nearly twelve o'clock before people dispersed.
The Bennet family can be regarded as the last group to leave, which is partly due to Mrs. Bennet's intentional delay, especially after seeing the shy Jane and the enthusiastic and attentive Bingley, Mrs. Bennet is even more reluctant. I tried my best to find all kinds of excuses to stay in Netherfield a little longer.
It wasn't until Elizabeth, who came back from Wu Zhao, made a strong protest, Lydia and Catherine who were traveling with her were yawning so sleepy, and even Mr. Bennett and Mary started discussing philosophy, that she reluctantly agreed. To go home.
"Okay, let's go back now." Mrs. Bennet put on her coat slowly, her eyes were still glancing proudly at Mr. Bingley, who was not seeing off the guests but chatting with Jane, and mumbling something in her mouth. People don't understand, "Oh my God, is there a better couple? No! If that doesn't work, then I guarantee that none of the girls in Longbourn will fall into his eyes." "
Only Elizabeth was keenly aware of who Mrs. Bennet was referring to, and she couldn't help but want to hold her forehead and sigh, "Mum is here again!"She looked around nervously, afraid that some gossip lady would hear it at this moment—God knows what rumors about Jane will come out of Longborn!
Like last time, the eldest son of Mr. Lang's family pursued Jane enthusiastically, claiming to love Jane like crazy, and often followed Jane.And what about Jane?It was just a polite conversation with him on the family farm.
After a few days, the rumors became that the two were in love with each other. Mr. Lang's family and Bennett's family were already planning their wedding!
Jane, who didn't mean anything to him at all, complained secretly to Elizabeth for a long time, and the two sisters of the Bennet family were so frightened that they walked around Mr. Long's house—the gentle and shy Jane couldn't stand it again Such hurtful gossip!
Fortunately, at this time, everyone around gradually disappeared. Only Lydia, who was exhausted from dancing all night, was with Mrs. Bennet, holding her arm, and kept coquettishly urging her.
"Are you ready to go home?"
Originally, Darcy was going to send Wu Zhao upstairs to rest, and he came out to accompany Bentley to see off the guests, but Wu Zhao insisted on sending off the friend he met tonight, so he had to agree.
Unexpectedly, the different people they were looking for happened to be in the same place—"It's not a coincidence at all, I should have expected it when I saw Charles at the ball." Darcy added inwardly with a cold face.
It was Wu Zhao who asked the question just now. She saw that Elizabeth had already put on a thick coat, but she didn't know why she was still standing there without moving, so she asked this question.
After observing the surrounding area, Elizabeth heard this caring question from behind.She turned around quickly, with a happy smile on her face, "Georgiana? Didn't you go upstairs to rest? It's so late, I thought you would leave earlier."
Wu Zhao let go of Darcy's arm, and motioned for Darcy to go find him quickly.
Bingley, however, was walking in Elizabeth's direction. The cold wind at the door was relatively heavy, so she hugged her shoulders involuntarily, "I'll see you off, I see you've put on your coat."
Elizabeth shrugged helplessly, nodded and said, "Yes, I'm about to go back."
She said and glanced in Bentley's direction, "Unfortunately, it seems that someone is still reluctant."
Wu Zhao looked at Darcy walking past and smiled, "Soon. I think my brother will solve this little problem for you—do you have enough carriages?"
Elizabeth also nodded in agreement. Mr. Darcy didn't look as enthusiastic and talkative as Mr. Bingley, and she heard that Wu Zhao was concerned about how she would go back, so she quickly replied: "There are enough carriages - when our family came, we only used one." A carriage, so that there are more people, and it won’t be too cold to go back at night.”
She looked at Wu Zhao's folded hands with concern, and asked softly, "Is it still cold at the door? You just came out of the hall and you didn't wear a coat. Go back quickly."
Wu Zhao frowned slightly, and didn't agree to go back, but shook his head in disapproval, "There are seven people in your family, how can you go back in one carriage? Use my carriage—Qing Niang, you Get a carriage ready to take Eliza home."
Qing Niang was holding Wu Zhao's thick cloak and came out of the hall to search for it. When she found Wu Zhao, she heard the order. She hurriedly walked over to put the cloak on Wu Zhao, and said, "Yes, I asked someone to prepare for it." carriage."
"No need, no need." Elizabeth hastily stopped, "We took the same carriage when we came, that's enough."
Qingniang lowered her head and tied a bow on the fur cloak in front of Wu Zhao. Hearing the sound, she hurriedly laughed and said, "It's different now than when I came here. It's so late at night, you two have to guard the car door at least when you go back." , isn't it cold when the wind blows in? I had a good time today, and I went back sweating all over, so I'm going to catch a cold tomorrow."
"I just heard that our lady is still waiting for you to come to Netherfield to be invited. If you are sick, you will not be able to taste my craft."
Qing Niang stood by Wu Zhao's side, with a smile on her face, she said every word without leaking, without making people feel that she was being favored and felt uncomfortable.
Elizabeth couldn't help but lamented in her heart that the maids around Wu Zhao spoke so blissfully and thoughtfully, which made her even more embarrassed to refuse, otherwise she would seem very unfamiliar and awkward.
Before she could agree, Lydia, who had been by Mrs. Bennet's side, heard it first, and a few people shouted from a distance: "Sister Lizzie, please agree! I don't want to sit in the car door again." next to it!"
Elizabeth blushed, she had already reached this point, so she had no choice but to agree, and thanked Wu Zhao and Qingniang again and again.
Wu Zhao smiled and said no, "You come to Netherfield as a guest, and I live here, so you can be regarded as a half-host, so it's hard not to entertain well."
While the two were talking, Darcy had also completed his task, and dragged Bingley and Jane, who were still whispering, over.If Darcy's black face is ignored, then Bentley and Jane look quite harmonious, the man has delicate features, the woman is gentle and beautiful, and the two are almost shoulder to shoulder.
Walking side by side--three paces ahead of Darcy in black face.
As soon as Bingley arrived at the door, he was shivered by the cold wind. He quickly turned his head and said to Jane tenderly, "Take my carriage back, okay? There is a heater in my carriage."
A shy blush appeared on Jane's face.
Darcy saw the tendency to continue the conversation, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and interrupted the tenderness of the two with a stiff voice, "I don't think so, I have just heard that Gina asked someone to prepare a carriage to send Miss Bennett The family is going back to Longbourne. You may rest easy, Charles."
He almost made it clear that it was time for Bentley to let Jane go home.
Although Bingley was stuck in love for a while and couldn't get out for a while, he didn't have such a low IQ. He finally found out his friend's anger dully, so he had to look at Jane reluctantly, and then whispered: "Oh, Well, well. Jane—may I call you that—be careful not to catch cold at night."
Jane blushed and nodded.
Seeing the beauty like this, Bingley forgot Darcy's black face for a moment, and couldn't help wanting to have a good chat with Jane again.
Fortunately, at this moment, someone could not bear it and interrupted him angrily—not Darcy, but Caroline and Mrs. Hurst who had been seeing guests in the hall instead of their brother.
Caroline had been sending off the guests of Longbourne outside at ten o'clock in the evening at the earnest request of Bingley. She was a little complacent, but it took more than an hour to send them off.
The cold winter wind made her head hurt, and the delicate makeup on her face was completely wiped out by the snot and involuntary tears. She couldn't bear it anymore, and angrily wanted to find He who was hiding somewhere. Mr. and Mrs. Sturt came to replace them, and they didn't want to see Bingley, who was supposed to be seeing off guests outside, talking tenderly with a lady? !
ha?Caroline's eyes were going to fire!
She didn't care that she was still avoiding the Darcy brothers and sisters tonight, and with her arms tightly folded, she strode up to Bingley and screamed, "Charles! You should go see off the guests!"
This questioning woke Jane up immediately. She looked at Caroline who was freezing funny, and asked hesitantly, "Is that Miss Bingley?"
This made Caroline even more angry. Could it be that her current image is so bad that even the people who just met tonight can't recognize her?
Fortunately, she still remembered that this was a hall with people coming and going, even if all the guests had left, there were still a few.She must maintain her manners, at least not to lose face in front of these country people!
Caroline cleared her throat, which was dry by the cold wind, and replied with a stiff face: "It's me, Miss Bennett, we just met tonight."
Jane has a thin skin, and she couldn't help but blushed even more when she heard this. She was naturally beautiful, even if she blushed, it only made the makeup on her face more lively, and it made Caroline even more angry.
Elizabeth was the first to see that her sister had no experience in this situation, so she hurriedly made a rescue, "Mr. Bingley, the carriage that Georgiana prepared for us is already waiting outside the door, Jane, let's go to this one." .Papa and Mama and Mary have all been
into our own carriage. "
Although Jane hadn't noticed that Caroline didn't like her very much, she just thought she couldn't stand the cold wind, but she wouldn't refuse when her sister asked.
Jane showed a shy smile at Bingley, and whispered, "I'm going back, Mr. Bingley."
"Ah! Okay, I'll take you to the carriage!" Bingley was fascinated by this smile, and followed Jane out of the hall step by step.
Elizabeth snickered as she watched from the sidelines, and quickly said goodbye to Wu Zhao, and resolutely rejected her proposal to send her into the carriage, "It's too cold outside, even if you wear a cloak, you will inevitably catch cold."
Qing Niang was also afraid that Wu Zhao would suffer from the cold, so she quickly tried to persuade her. Wu Zhao had no choice but to agree, but she still asked Daxi to send them off for her.
It's nothing, Darcy readily agreed, he didn't want Wu Zhao to go out to be cold, but he was fine.
In this way, the four sisters of the Bennett family—Jane, Elizabeth, and Wu Zhao wanted to take them back in their own carriage, and they were curious to see what Miss Darcy’s carriage looked like, so they insisted on staying in the Lydia here, Catherine who was dragged by Lydia, Darcy, and Bingley, a group of six people walked out of the hall.
It looks mighty and mighty, quite lively.
"Mr. Darcy, please go back too."
Darcy silently offered an arm to send Elizabeth into the carriage, and Elizabeth poked his head out of the carriage to ask him to go back, "Thank Georgiana for my help tonight."
Darcy was a little surprised that Elizabeth and his sister seemed to hit it off so well, but he didn't want to overly interfere with Gina's friendship with the ladies, so he just nodded silently.
"Mr. Darcy is not the same as his sister at all." Elizabeth couldn't help complaining again in her heart.
At this time the carriage began to move, she quickly retracted into the carriage, stretched out her hand through the window and shouted loudly: "Goodbye, Mr. Darcy! Tell Georgiana that I will miss her and welcome her to our house!"
After Elizabeth finished speaking, she wanted to see Darcy's expression, but the carriage was moving fast and it was pitch black. She tried her best to look but couldn't see Darcy's expression clearly, so she had to go back into the car disconsolately.
Inside the carriage, Lydia and Catherine, who came up first, couldn't sit still. When Elizabeth spoke, they had already looked inside and outside the carriage, and they couldn't help but marvel.
Although Wu Zhao's carriage looks no different from the common carriages in England, there is something special inside. Qingniang has changed it from the inside to the outside according to the decoration habits of the Tang Dynasty. Looking at the interior of the carriage now, it will only make people think that it is a far east.
In the middle of the carriage stood a brass and gemstone-inlaid phoenix stove, sunken in a square depression, and the copper stove top was only about three inches above the bottom of the carriage, so that it could be easily filled with charcoal.The walls were hung with thick felt, the finest furs from Scotland Yard, and the floor was covered with brightly colored carpets from Persia.The seats are only slightly higher than the bottom of the car, and you have to cross your legs slightly when sitting on them, but they are all covered with soft cushions.
It doesn't make people feel tired.
Now Lydia is staring at the thick felt that was specially hung on the wall of the carriage to resist the cold wind, and she still tightly holds an aquamarine with pearls that Wu Zhao left on the carriage with one hand. brooch.
Catherine was a little better, but she also secretly looked at the brass heater placed in the middle of the carriage. After looking around for a while, she couldn't help but exclaim: "Is this also an expensive imported product from the East? Looking at the carvings on it, how can it be There are gems! I swear, not even Buckingham Palace has such a luxurious fireplace!"
Elizabeth felt desperation in her heart. She berated Lydia to put the brooch back in its original place, while trying to stop Catherine from reaching out to touch the stove, "Lydia, that brooch is very valuable at first glance. If you break it, Papa won't pay you for it! Catherine, no matter how beautiful the jewels on the stove are, you'll burn your hands if you touch them!"
Although Lydia was aggrieved, when Mrs. Bennett was not here, she didn't dare to confront Elizabeth directly. She only dared to mutter to herself in a low voice, but she still held the brooch and refused to let it go.
Elizabeth's attention had already been attracted by Catherine, who had a burning hand, and she didn't notice that Lydia was still holding the brooch.
By the time Catherine's hands were hastily bound up with cloth strips from her inner skirt, Elizabeth was exhausted and collapsed against the wall of the carriage.
Jane approached empathetically, rubbed Elizabeth's shoulders, and smiled softly: "It's still up to you to control them, I don't even know what to say. Lydia won't listen to me either."
Elizabeth smiled wearily, "You are thin-skinned, you won't reprimand them—hey, don't talk about that, talk about the dance tonight? How is Mr. Bingley?"
Jane's face was flushed. Although she was always reluctant to praise others easily, especially young men of her own age, for fear that there would be another rumor like Mr. Xiao Lang, when Elizabeth asked, she was shy but firm. He expressed to his sister what a good young man Mr. Bingley was and how much he admired him.
"I can't think of a better man than Mr. Bingley. He's warm, cheerful, lively, and so well-bred that there's nothing awkward about him!"
Jane's eyes sparkled, and she had a tendency to gush about Mr. Bingley, "He danced with me all night! You don't know, Lizzie, when he came to invite me the second time I What a surprise!"
"You're always easy to be so flattered." Elizabeth replied with some helplessness, "Trust others easily, don't forget, you have fallen in love with a few fools-even if the love is only a few weeks you will fall in love. Had to give up."
"Lizzie! My dear sister!" cried Jane.
Elizabeth had no choice but to raise her hands in surrender, and said that she would no longer tease her, "But speaking of tonight's dance, although I didn't dance much, I felt very fulfilled."
Jane asked curiously: "Why? Don't you always dislike going to dances?"
Elizabeth became excited, she held Jane's hand behind her back, and introduced to her happily, "I have met a good friend! My God, I have never seen a lady who is more noble, elegant, understanding and considerate than her Yes! Jane, you should know whom I mean, Miss Darcy! Georgiana, the sister of Mr. Bingley's friend Mr. Darcy, whom you also met."
Jane couldn't understand her excitement at all, her mind was still on the handsome young man she met at the ball, but she was always gentle, so she would never dampen her sister's joy, she just followed her words and said: "Oh, really! She She is a very pretty young lady, and looks much more elegant than Mr. Bingley's sister."
Elizabeth was very happy that her sister had the same opinion as herself, and she almost couldn't wait to tell Jane what happened tonight.
It's a pity that Jane's attention went astray, and she couldn't help but became very curious about the Lord Earl described by Elizabeth, "Is he really that beautiful? Compared with Mr. Bingley, er, I mean, than Mr. What about the pretty lads we usually see?"
Elizabeth didn't expect that she would ask this, and Stuart's indifferent and beautiful face involuntarily appeared in front of her eyes, she couldn't help but shuddered, and said in a tone of awe: "Yes, he is very beautiful. We will see The lads who came here can't be compared with him at all, if I have to describe it-"
She thought about it carefully, and finally affirmed: "Maybe Satan is the best description-no, Jane, don't look at me like that. I am not saying that he is evil and terrible. King James' King James Bible said that Satan He was once the most beautiful of the seraphs. The count’s beauty is worthy of this description, but if he is only described as an angel, I don’t think it is appropriate. He seems to have a devil-like dangerous charm, which makes One can't help being attracted to him, but also afraid."
She spoke eloquently for a long time, which made Jane even more curious, and finally decided: "Okay, Mr. Bingley invited me to Netherfield as a guest. I will definitely find a chance to take a look at the Earl next time."
Elizabeth looked at Jane in surprise, and shouted, "Did Mr. Bingley invite you to visit Netherfield?"
Jane shyly came up to cover her mouth, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Yes, he invited me to Netherfield the day after tomorrow."
The author has something to say: two more in one!
In the next chapter, it's time for the young lady to show off her skills again!

Thanks to the little angel of irrigation nutrient solution: 10 bottles of dloma;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
The Bennet family can be regarded as the last group to leave, which is partly due to Mrs. Bennet's intentional delay, especially after seeing the shy Jane and the enthusiastic and attentive Bingley, Mrs. Bennet is even more reluctant. I tried my best to find all kinds of excuses to stay in Netherfield a little longer.

Jane approached empathetically, rubbed Elizabeth's shoulders, and smiled softly: "It's still up to you to control them, I don't even know what to say. Lydia won't listen to me either."
Elizabeth smiled wearily, "You are thin-skinned, you won't reprimand them—hey, don't talk about that, talk about the dance tonight? How is Mr. Bingley?"
Jane's face was flushed. Although she was always reluctant to praise others easily, especially young men of her own age, for fear that there would be another rumor like Mr. Xiao Lang, when Elizabeth asked, she was shy but firm. He expressed to his sister what a good young man Mr. Bingley was and how much he admired him.
"I can't think of a better man than Mr. Bingley. He's warm, cheerful, lively, and so well-bred that there's nothing awkward about him!"
Jane's eyes sparkled, and she had a tendency to gush about Mr. Bingley, "He danced with me all night! You don't know, Lizzie, when he came to invite me the second time I What a surprise!"
"You're always easy to be so flattered." Elizabeth replied with some helplessness, "Trust others easily, don't forget, you have fallen in love with a few fools-even if the love is only a few weeks you will fall in love. Had to give up."
"Lizzie! My dear sister!" cried Jane.
Elizabeth had no choice but to raise her hands in surrender, and said that she would no longer tease her, "But speaking of tonight's dance, although I didn't dance much, I felt very fulfilled."
Jane asked curiously: "Why? Don't you always dislike going to dances?"
Elizabeth became excited, she held Jane's hand behind her back, and introduced to her happily, "I have met a good friend! My God, I have never seen a lady who is more noble, elegant, understanding and considerate than her Yes! Jane, you should know whom I mean, Miss Darcy! Georgiana, the sister of Mr. Bingley's friend Mr. Darcy, whom you also met."
Jane couldn't understand her excitement at all, her mind was still on the handsome young man she met at the ball, but she was always gentle, so she would never dampen her sister's joy, she just followed her words and said: "Oh, really! She She is a very pretty young lady, and looks much more elegant than Mr. Bingley's sister."
Elizabeth was very happy that her sister had the same opinion as herself, and she almost couldn't wait to tell Jane what happened tonight.
It's a pity that Jane's attention went astray, and she couldn't help but became very curious about the Lord Earl described by Elizabeth, "Is he really that beautiful? Compared with Mr. Bingley, er, I mean, than Mr. What about the pretty lads we usually see?"
Elizabeth didn't expect that she would ask this, and Stuart's indifferent and beautiful face involuntarily appeared in front of her eyes, she couldn't help but shuddered, and said in a tone of awe: "Yes, he is very beautiful. We will see The lads who came here can't be compared with him at all, if I have to describe it-"
She thought about it carefully, and finally affirmed: "Maybe Satan is the best description-no, Jane, don't look at me like that. I am not saying that he is evil and terrible. King James' King James Bible said that Satan He was once the most beautiful of the seraphs. The count’s beauty is worthy of this description, but if he is only described as an angel, I don’t think it is appropriate. He seems to have a devil-like dangerous charm, which makes One can't help being attracted to him, but also afraid."
She spoke eloquently for a long time, which made Jane even more curious, and finally decided: "Okay, Mr. Bingley invited me to Netherfield as a guest. I will definitely find a chance to take a look at the Earl next time."
Elizabeth looked at Jane in surprise, and shouted, "Did Mr. Bingley invite you to visit Netherfield?"
Jane shyly came up to cover her mouth, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Yes, he invited me to Netherfield the day after tomorrow."
The author has something to say: two more in one!
In the next chapter, it's time for the young lady to show off her skills again!
