The warmth brought by the setting sun in the afternoon quickly disappeared as soon as night fell, and the cold wind rolled around the dead branches and leaves that fell to the ground at some time, making a whining noise.

Soon, there was no one to be seen on the streets of London. At this time, unless they were homeless, no matter how poor they were, they would not come out to beg for a living. I took off all the clothes and quilts I could put on, and shivered with the shrill wind.

But the weather has no effect on those nobles and wealthy gentry. Most of them have already set up a strong fire at home, leisurely tasting the hot tea brought by the maid, chatting and laughing in twos and threes, or playing cards for fun.

The Haisen mansion is not immune, although the three of them talked and dismissed the maid long ago, but the fire in the fireplace is still burning fiercely, reflecting the flickering expression on Wu Zhao's face who is sitting opposite him, which is very charming , which made Stuart unable to turn his eyes away.

"I didn't get involved in shipping." Wu Zhao tilted his body with a smile, "Probably the biggest relationship with me is that it allows me to buy a few more jewelry and dresses every year."

"Look at this?" Stuart took out a thin contract from his arms, and handed it to Wu Zhao casually, as if it was just a piece of cheap scrap paper, rather than an equity worth tens of thousands of pounds transfer agreement.

Wu Zhao took it and quickly flipped through it, and couldn't help but look at him in surprise, not knowing what to say for a while.

At the beginning, it was Stuart who admired Darcy so he acquiesced in the [-]/[-] shareholding. Otherwise, such a profitable business as shipping would not be possible for Darcy. It's five, Sanqi is willing.

Now this contract states that Darcy and Stuart each only have [-]% and Wu Zhao himself has [-]%!

what does this mean?

It means that Darcy's family actually accounted for [-]%, while Stuart accounted for [-]%. After all, women nowadays have no property rights, and this is only written to be transferred to Darcy, who will be given as Wu Zhao's dowry in the future.If Darcy wanted to use this to force him to monopolize the equity, it would be as easy as pie.

Of course, this is unrealistic.Let’s not talk about Darcy’s character, it’s impossible to do this kind of thing, just say that if you really do it, the shipping business can’t go on—without the protection of Stuart’s name, there are many people who want to share a cup of soup.But after all, this shows Stuart's attitude and sincerity, and the significance cannot be directly measured.

I don't see that even if there is Stuart covering him now, someone is still thinking about this idea?

Wu Zhao didn't say yes or no, but shook the paper in his hand and said with a smile, "So you haven't come back for many days, so you just went to do this?"

Stuart was not able to see the expected emotional performance of Wu Zhao. He felt a little regretful and felt that the dust had settled as expected. He also smiled and said, "Yes—it is not easy to divide the shares. things."

He didn't specifically mention the difficulties involved, but Wu Zhao could also imagine that at least the followers of the Earl's mansion would not be so willing - what's more, they might think that since the Earl is willing to divide his

Why can't you sell the shares to Darcy's followers?Compared with the benefits that can be obtained, the apparent value of the equity is too little, tens of thousands of pounds, anyone can afford this money.

"In this case..." Wu Zhao was silent for a while, then suddenly showed a very bright smile to Stuart, "Thank you."

Stuart was taken aback by her—what happened?

Isn't it normal that the two should come and go, hold hands and refuse each other, and finally under his own persuasion, Wu Zhao accepts "reluctantly"?When he proposed it, Darcy shirked and refused for a while!

Why did you just accept it?

Facing Stutt's straight gaze, Wu Zhao smiled even more prettily. The orange-red fire reflected the blue eyes like lake water, which made Stutt think of a rare cat from Persia with snow-white fur. The eyes are also like this, one blue and one orange, very proud.

"Isn't Your Excellency the Earl sincere?" Wu Zhao smiled and waved the piece of paper in his hand, "It's too late to regret it now."

Stuart's face was full of regret, and he couldn't help feeling sorry for Miss Darcy who didn't play her cards according to the routine!The opportunity to get in close contact with the beauties and touch the little hands by the way is gone!

Of course, he still shook his head indifferently on the face, "Of course it's impossible to repent. I just didn't expect Miss Darcy to be so straightforward."

Wu Zhao blinked slyly, causing Stuart's heart to skip a beat. She always felt that this smart lady had seen through her real purpose at a glance.

Although the two didn't push each other directly, but you and I spoke very warmly, and Darcy couldn't sit still. Even if he agreed to Stuart's pursuit of his sister, he couldn't just treat him as nothing, right? ! ! !

"Cough, cough, cough!" Darcy coughed vigorously, reminding Stuart—hey!I'm still here!

Stuart moved his body a little as if nothing had happened, and pretended to be caring: "Fitz, did you catch a cold on the road? It's best to go back and have a rest, drink a glass of wine to keep warm."

"Trust me, you'll feel better soon." Stuart assured, "Don't worry about Gina, we'll talk for a while and I'll send her back to her room."

You think beautifully!

Darcy was furious. He quickly stood up from his seat, glared at Stutt, and said through gritted teeth, "Why? Your Excellency was sick two days ago, so I should be worried about your health."

Undoubtedly, he dragged Stuart's arm and walked upstairs, "For the future of the empire, you must not fall!"

When he got to the stairs, he still didn't forget to turn his head and give Wu Zhao a stiff smile, "Don't worry, Gina. Take a good rest, we will be back in Pemberley soon."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Wu Zhao to reply, he half-forced and half-threateningly supported Stuart's arm, and the two stumbled up the stairs.

Wu Zhao couldn't help being stunned. After a long while, it wasn't until Sara came in tentatively to ask, that she slowly came back to her senses, and said with an emotional smile, "It's not a bad feeling to have a family member who cares about you?"

Sara didn't know why and didn't dare to speak.

Fortunately, Wu Zhao didn't need her to answer, so he smiled for a while, and when he slowly got up, his face was covered with tears.

After regaining his composure, he ordered lightly: "Pack up your things, leaving only the cleaning servants behind, and everyone else will go back to Pemberley with you—we will go back this Christmas!"

Sara stayed put—what about the dance?

"The dance party has been cancelled." Before she could ask, Wu Zhao had already answered her question, "It is estimated that London will be in chaos in two days—the Allied forces lost the war."

Sure enough, within two days, the news of the defeat of the Allied forces on the front line had already spread.The queen's decision to cancel this year's social season spread like wildfire. Suddenly, the whole of London panicked, and people began to prepare to flee in a hurry.

In contrast, the Haisen mansion, which had been prepared long ago, seemed much calmer.

Qing Niang and Sara's ability to handle affairs is not something to brag about. When Wu Zhao woke up the next day, the servants and clothes that were going to be sent to Pemberley had already been packed and ready to go.However, in the afternoon, four or five carriages were driven back to Pemberley by Qing Niang and Sarah.

Although the rest of the people did not know the news in advance, they quickly stabilized their positions under the command of Mrs. Reynolds after it spread.None of the remaining 43 male and female servants in the Haisen mansion were as panicked and running around as in the other houses. They all calmed down and continued to do what they were supposed to do.

Darcy only stayed at home for a day, and hurried to the port.Although Stuart did not leave London, he also returned to the Earl's Palace the next day, and was soon called into Buckingham Palace to discuss matters.Before leaving, he deliberately talked with Wu Zhao in detail, and took over the affairs of Lord Chris's house.

In this case, the people who originally wanted to make trouble also settled down.Even if Stuart wanted to investigate, he had to wait for the results of the frontline battle before starting.Wu Zhao thought for a while, but he didn't call back the people he sent out, but let them lurk carefully, and slowly figure out the reason behind it.

Yasha hasn't come to see Wu Zhao recently. After the incident happened that day, she always felt as if she was stripped naked in public, and she didn't even want to see her good friend.

Before Wu Zhao returned to Derbyshire, he visited the door once, but Yasha's eyes always avoided unconsciously, and Wu Zhao couldn't bear to look at it.

She knew very well that she needed heart medicine for her heart disease. Yasha suddenly learned of her life experience, and the Lord's House's financial difficulties were caused by Lord Chris's preoccupation with preparing a dowry for her.As long as the crisis in Lord Chris's house is not resolved, Asha will not be happy for a day.

This is something Wu Zhao can't do anything about.

She could only find Mrs. Chris secretly, and lent the Lord's House two thousand pounds in the name of a friend-although this could not completely solve their plight, but with the money from the sale of the Lord's House, Chris's family moved In a decent district, it is not a problem to buy a villa and hire a few servants to live on.

Mrs. Chris was very surprised. The two thousand pounds can really solve their urgent needs - after all, it will take a while for the Lord's Mansion to be sold, especially in this kind of war period, the original selling price is much lower. few.

But after thinking about it, she still bit her lower lip and pushed the money back, "Child,

I appreciate your kindness.But, but this is not a small number, I don't know how you persuaded your family to agree to pay such a large sum of money, but I can't accept it. "

The lady is a kind person, just look at the kindness she taught Asha.She refused to accept Wu Zhao's money because she was afraid that Wu Zhao would argue with her family because of this—after all, two thousand pounds was not something a 16-year-old girl could take out casually.

Wu Zhao shook her head, pushed the money back, and said with a smile, "I said it was borrowed, Madam, don't worry about it—although I'm not rich, I can still get two thousand pounds. You don't have to I was worried that I would have conflicts with my family—my brother agreed that I should help my friends within my ability. This is also the tradition of the Darcy family."

Mrs. Chris sighed secretly. Wu Zhao only said that it was borrowed, but with the current ability of the Chris family, can they pay it back?It was clear that he did not intend to go back.

She took a deep look at Wu Zhao, she was so grateful that she didn't know what to say, and she sighed after a while: "Asha has a good friend!"

Wu Zhao smiled, knowing that she had let go, and took advantage of the situation to ask, "Ma'am, I've always been curious about something, and I want to ask you—"

"Who is Yasha's biological mother? Do you still have any memory?"
