When Emperor Wu dressed as Darcy's sister
Chapter 50 Longborn
The atmosphere in Longborn's reception room was awkward.
Of course, it was mainly Elizabeth who looked at this situation and felt embarrassed for Collins.
But he obviously didn't think so.
Collins wanted to sit next to Wu Zhao on the couch, but the girl next to him who just patted his hand and a dark-skinned girl behind him didn't look at him, and they sat down on Miss Darcy's. On the left and right sides, Miss Darcy was tightly guarded.
So now the situation in the reception room is that the two pairs of sofas in Bennett's house are arranged in a rectangular shape. Jane and Bingley, the young lovers, and Mary, who was reluctantly called over by Mrs. Bennett just now, occupy the entire space. On a couch, Wu Zhao and the three sat on another couch opposite.
The two-seat sofa on the left and right sides was occupied by Elizabeth and Lydia, who was restless just after returning, and peeking at Wu Zhao anxiously from time to time, and the other one was only occupied by Mrs. Far, closer to Jane's side.
Fortunately, Caroline complained loudly about the damp and cold weather, and must sit on the rocking chair in front of the fireplace, otherwise Collins might not even have this seat.
But Collins is not willing to be next to Jane and Bingley, who are full of affection. No one can listen to his boasting there, and he always feels a little ashamed to show off to Bingley. Seeing that he was a little helpless—although he refused to admit it.
Collins hesitated for a while, standing there as if waiting for Elizabeth to make room for him, and hoping that Mrs. Bennet would find out that he hadn't taken his seat yet, so that the two ladies next to him would make room for him.
Where is Elizabeth willing!Even if I noticed it, I just pretended I didn't see it. Gu Zi wanted to talk and laugh with Wu Zhao, and from time to time he also took care of Lydia, but at this time Lydia was absent-minded and frightened. Not as alert as before, just vague responses.
Mrs. Bennet's thoughts were all on Bingley at this time, and she tried her best to figure out whether Bingley had any plans to propose to Jane, or when to propose at all, so she didn't notice Collins' embarrassment at all.
Collins stood in embarrassment for a while, and had to sit down beside Mrs. Bennett. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't wait to talk to Wu Zhao.
"Miss Darcy? Is your name Miss Darcy?" With a reserved smile on his face, Collins tried to interrupt Elizabeth's praise of the young lady, "I'm sorry for my behavior just now—ah, don't get me wrong , I am willing to apologize, not because my behavior just now was wrong, on the contrary, that behavior is too normal! In London and Paris, this is a reasonable behavior of a gentleman!"
Wu Zhao was speechless for a while, and simply ignored him—she didn't think she had to give Collins any face for what she wanted.
It's a pity that Collins is not a man of wit, and he is still eloquent and triumphant, "The hand kiss is the etiquette that a gentleman should have when facing a lady. You have been in Longbourne, and you have no chance to go out to have a look. Probably Not sure if this behavior is and
elegant……"
"However, if you have the opportunity to go to Hunsford, my little humble house, you will have the opportunity to experience this kind of etiquette. After all, my benefactor, Mrs. de Boer, is a frequent visitor to the upper class. If you can get close If you touch it, you will also be affected by this level..."
Collins added, and especially highlighted his benefactor, Mrs. De Boer, implicitly hinting in his words that if Wu Zhao had a husband like himself, he would be able to get in touch with high society smoothly.
Wu Zhao really couldn't stand his yelling, and was even more confused—had a chance to meet the upper class?It is necessary to contact through such a clown!
She swept her eyes in Qingniang's direction.
Qing Niang understood, immediately sneered, and raised her voice, "Mr. Collins, I have a question to ask."
Collins was interrupted, and saw that it was the young woman who just hit his hand, his face immediately became displeased, but in order to maintain his "demeanor", he patiently said: "I haven't asked who you are Miss? If you have anything to say, please speak up, I will know everything—you know, as a pastor, this is what I usually do, to help those confused ladies.”
Seeing that he was still pretending, Qingniang couldn't help laughing. She deliberately turned her body sideways so that Wu Zhao could see his self-satisfied look, and then said slowly: "As far as I know, the hand-kiss ceremony originated in Germany in the Middle Ages. , although it is also very popular in Great Britain now, it seems that it can only be used on married ladies-I have never seen a gentleman who would dare to dream that his mouth can stick to the hand of an unmarried lady!"
Collins' face immediately turned purple, his eyes widened, his eyebrows raised, and he opened his mouth wide to argue, but was immediately blocked by Qing Niang, "So you want to use this etiquette to show respect to our lady? Respect, let’s be blunt, forgetting righteousness because of color, and trying to use the name of etiquette to do rude things!”
"You're talking nonsense!" Collins managed to hold back a sentence. He seemed to be unable to think of any reason to explain it for a while, and he had a kind of embarrassment that was exposed, his face was purple, and he looked extremely ugly.
"Qing Niang, don't be so rude." Wu Zhao behind her suddenly said, Qing Niang quickly bowed her head in response, and shrank her body obediently, "Mr. Collins can't be as you think."
Collins had never been so grateful to Wu Zhao as he is now. He immediately felt that Wu Zhao was not only good-looking, but also his words and deeds were extremely suitable for a pastor's wife!
Elizabeth, as if aware of it, quickly glanced at Wu Zhao's direction.
Wu Zhao suddenly smiled, followed by speaking at a moderate pace, "Actually, Mr. Collins doesn't know anything about the etiquette of the upper class. I don't know where I heard such a small thing, so I couldn't help but show it off—— ——Qing Niang, you should be tolerant and tolerate these people who know that they are not qualified, but desperately want to peek through that gorgeous gate."
"Yes, Miss is right." Qing Niang responded quickly, "I should apologize to Mr. Collins—Mr. Collins, sorry for misunderstood you. It turns out that you are not a student of physics, but a vulgar petty bourgeois."
"Puchi." Yi
Lisabeth couldn't help laughing, she looked up and saw that Collins was glaring at her, she quickly stopped her smile, coughed dryly, and pretended nothing happened.
Even Lydia couldn't help recovering from the guilty conscience just now, and laughed softly.
Caroline in front of the fireplace laughed the loudest. She didn't have to give Collins face, and she was the most arrogant. She felt sympathy for another person who went up against Wu Zhao and was bullied so hard that she didn't know where to go.Simply delighted to see it happen!
She was a little gloating, besides Mrs. Hurst, another one came to scold her!
Collins's current complexion can no longer be described simply by color. Wu Zhao looked over and felt that it might have to compete with the charcoal burning vigorously in the fireplace - not only red, but also white smoke.
She doesn't care about these things, if someone makes herself uncomfortable, will she feel distressed after calling back?
Wu Zhao leaned back comfortably on the sofa, Sara smiled and handed over a plate of small biscuits at the right time, and Qing Niang then served tea.Wu Zhao drank tea with his left hand and snacks with his right. He served it very comfortably. How could Collins wish to find a crack in the ground when he was free?
Fortunately, Elizabeth was still concerned about Mrs. Bennet's presence, and she couldn't let this cousin get off the stage too much—in fact, Mrs. Bennet didn't hear the lawsuit at all, and her attention was all on Bingley and Jane!He probably had to figure out what he wanted before he could turn his mind to Collins, who might become his son-in-law. His allure was much less than that of Bentley, who earned five thousand pounds a year.
"Ahem, Mr. Collins, you don't know yet, do you?" Elizabeth hurriedly started to say from the moment she entered the room, but was interrupted by Collins' coquettish operation, "This is Miss Darcy, and she doesn't live in Lambert. Well—her brother, Mr Darcy, is a good friend of Mr Bingley's, and is now on holiday at Netherfield at Mr Bingley's invitation."
"These two, Young Lady and Sarah, are Miss Darcy's maids."
Collins froze, and blurted out a question, "Both, are both personal maids?"
"What's the matter? Is there any problem with the two personal maids?" Wu Zhao said lightly, "I personally think that two personal maids are not too many--then if I say, there must be at least eight maids to serve me every day. Are you going to jump up and accuse me of extravagance in daily life?"
Collins glanced at Wu Zhao helplessly, then turned to Elizabeth, as if he wanted to deny what Wu Zhao said from Elizabeth, as if he just exaggerated her wealth.
It's a pity that Elizabeth didn't give him this hope. She shrugged and said with a smile: "It is true that there are eight maids in Netherfield taking turns in Miss Darcy's apartment. And I heard from Mr. Darcy that Pemberley Manor is better than this one. Doubling more?"
She looked at Wu Zhao with questioning eyes.
Even Collins, who was being embarrassed, couldn't help but look sideways when he heard this. Is there a manor at home?My God, is that a family richer than Mr. Bingley?
"Brother even told you this—" Wu Zhao smiled and winked, "When did you have so many exchanges, and I didn't hear any of them?
. "
Elizabeth blushed, and hurriedly wanted to explain that she just mentioned it by accident, but Wu Zhao continued to speak, blocking what she wanted to say.
"But this is the truth. It is probably a habit passed down from the ancestors. The hostess of the Darcy family usually has sixteen maids who take turns to work, but there are fewer unmarried ladies. But my mother has been dead for a long time, and my brother is not often. At home, so I will have more people here, just in case there are not enough people to do something."
Wu Zhao glanced at Elizabeth with a smile, and invited: "The lake area is very beautiful in summer, Eliza, how about living in Pemberley for a few weeks in summer? Of course, you can bring your family. I think the guest room in Pemberley is enough for you." You live comfortably."
Elizabeth's eyes lit up, she didn't know anything else, but the lake area was indeed very attractive to her, the lakes, mountains, mountains and boulders, the refreshing natural scenery!
Before Elizabeth got entangled, Collins, who was so thick-skinned that he didn't know what shame was, had recovered from the embarrassment that was rarely seen in his life just now. His flattering nature immediately broke out, allowing him to follow his instinct without thinking. To curry favor with rich and powerful ladies and wives.
"Oh, that's how noble ladies are." Collins quickly put on a business smile, and introduced to everyone confidently, "My benefactor, Mrs. De Boer, she has a daughter, Miss Anna De Boer That lady is truly pampered, oh, I swear, even a real princess wouldn't live in such dignity as Miss de Boer!"
"It's not just the custom of the de Boer family, but also thanks to the habits handed down from Mrs. Catherine's mother's family. My God, that lady's mother's family is the most honorable family!"
"De Boer? De Boer of Hunsford?" Wu Zhao smiled faintly, "If you're talking about the De Boer family of Rosings Manor in Hunsford, then I'm afraid it will surprise you—then It's my aunt."
The author has something to say: It's late today, I'm guilty...but I can still be rescued!
Hear me out!
I can't go out recently, so I thought about losing weight... Then I chose a wrong method by mistake. This is probably the decision I regret most - beautiful ballet swan arms!
Oh my god, really, I think it's not easy for me to lift my hand to type now, it's too painful for me!
I suspect Ballet Beautiful is the biggest con of the century!That woman is probably not a bionic robot!Technology has come to this point now!
woo woo woo...
