When Emperor Wu dressed as Darcy's sister

Chapter 95 Pemberley & London

Elizabeth glanced at Mr. Bennet with a guilty conscience, and secretly tugged on Rajan's sleeve, begging the elder sister to speak to ease the atmosphere.

Jane quickly patted her comfortingly, and while pulling Elizabeth to sit on the left and right sides of Mrs. Bennett, she smiled relaxedly and said, "What's the matter, Dad, is there anything good?"

Mrs. Bennet looked at the two nervously, but the two sisters sat beside her, one on the left and the other on the right, so that she had to keep turning her head from side to side, like a rattle drum, which was really funny-look Just look at the way Lydia and Catherine secretly held back their laughter.

Mr. Bennett read the letter from Collins again, and while looking at Elizabeth, he specially emphasized, "...the family is rich, the family is noble, the support is generous, and the power is boundless-Eliza, you are looking for someone. A prince?"

Elizabeth was still a little nervous at first, but as Mr. Bennett read more and more weird, she couldn't help laughing, "Hahaha, my God! This is really true, if it wasn't for me who wrote it , I almost fainted from laughter, how can there be such an exaggeration-this is about Miss Darcy's suitor, that honorable Earl is almost the same!"

"'Giving and supporting, power is boundless'" Elizabeth read the letter again with great interest, and she commented with a smile, "Mr. Collins is implying that he should be supported and supported?"

"So, do you admit that there is a gentleman chasing you?" Mr. Bennett was not distracted by Elizabeth, he still stared at her smiling face, and insisted on asking, "I don't know if I have this honor Do you know which 'Yulang' is my dear Miss Elizabeth's suitor?" - He also used the description in Collins' letter, which shows that the father and daughter really have the same fun in being funny.

"Dad!" The Bennett sisters yelled at the same time, and Elizabeth said dissatisfiedly, "How can you say that? It sounds weird."

"So, who is it?" Mr. Bennet snorted coldly. After all, he still cared about his daughter, and muttered an apology in a low voice.

Eliza was cheerful and generous during the day, and after she confessed to Jane, she no longer had any worries, and it was not a day or two with Darcy, and she had already passed the shyness, and she replied generously: "Well, yes. You also I know you, the one who rents Netherfield..."

"What?" cried Mrs. Bennet, who was shaking herself dizzily from side to side, before she had finished speaking, and eagerly grabbed the hands of the two of them. "Lizzie! Isn't Mr. Bingley here?" With your sister... No, you can't do this, I won't allow you to do such a thing!"

It was rare for her to be tough—unfortunately, she had completely mistaken the candidate.

Elizabeth blushed and was angry at her mother's misunderstanding. She protested, "Mom, how could I be that kind of person?"

"Then how do you..."

"It's Mr. Darcy! Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy, a good friend of Mr. Bingley who lives in Netherfield!" Elizabeth hastened to tell the real candidate. She didn't expect her mother to turn the corner.

As soon as the word comes out

The whole room fell silent—well, it was Mrs. Bennet who lost her voice in fright, and the others actually didn't speak at all, but they were all shocked enough.

"Who, who, who... Lizzie, say it again?" Mrs. Bennet did not stand up and scream out of Elizabeth's expectation, but stammered the question.

Elizabeth had no choice but to reply again: "Mom, you heard me right, it's Mr. Darcy."

Mrs. Bennet subconsciously stood up from the sofa, scaring both Elizabeth and Jane.After she stood up, she didn't laugh out loud as everyone had imagined, and the expression on her face was befuddled, as if she was still dreaming, and she walked around the room several times in a daze.

"Mr. Darcy, Mr. Darcy?" repeated Mrs. Bennet so selfishly that Elizabeth began to wonder if her mother had changed.

Sudden!Mrs. Bennett let out a shriek, piercing everyone's eardrums, like a high-pitched dolphin!

"Mr. Darcy! My little Lizzie is going to marry Mr. Darcy!" Mrs. Bennet sprang up swiftly behind Elizabeth. "Oh, my God! Mr. Darcy! Who would have thought of that? My darling!" Baby Lizzie!"

"You're going to be a dame! Think how much money you'll have, what splendid carriages, what precious jewels you'll have! I hadn't realized before that Mr. Darcy is the best Ten thousand pounds a year! A house in the city! A manor in Derbyshire! A Bentley is a far cry from him—no, what about a Bentley! That ungrateful, wolf-hearted fellow . . . "

These words are enough to prove that Mrs. Bennet was just overjoyed and did not go crazy with fright. Elizabeth was immediately relieved, and couldn't help laughing at the beginning, thinking to herself, it's better not to tell her mother, Darcy Can have an income of [-] pounds, and it's not just about this house, right?These are enough to make mom happy.

Hearing her mother talking about Bingley again, she interrupted Mrs. Bennet quickly, lest Jane would be upset, "Mother! I haven't told you yet, have I? Mr. Darcy is coming to Longbourne the day after tomorrow to propose marriage—and his aunt, Even Collins' benefactor, Lady Catherine, will come!"

"Oh, of course not, you haven't told me yet!" Mrs. Bennet was very excited, and while she was spinning around, she was trying to see what was going to be prepared for Darcy and his party tomorrow, "Lizzie, you haven't told me yet What's Mr. Darcy's favorite dish—I'll see, fresh lamb chops with good spices! How's that?"

Elizabeth looked at her over-excited mother with some headaches, and it took her a lot of effort to coax her away, "Oh, my mother has already lost face in front of Mr. Darcy." Elizabeth could only comfort herself like this .

Mrs. Bennet walked away in high spirits, knowing, too, that she must tell the whole of Longbourn--her daughter!To be married to a gentleman who makes ten thousand pounds a year!

"Now Mrs. Lucas can't show off to me anymore. Ha, her daughter married

Reverend, but my daughter is married to his benefactor's nephew! When she came back in the evening, Mrs. Bennet triumphantly declared to everyone, "No one is happier than me now." "

But now, Elizabeth didn't have to endure her mother's noise, and the room where only a few of them were left was extremely quiet now.

After Mr. Bennet repeatedly asked Elizabeth whether she really liked Mr. Darcy and not for "stupidly like your mother for carriages, jewels and money", although he was somewhat reluctant to let his favorite daughter marry first, But he still stepped forward to give her a hug, and sent the most sincere blessings from his father.

Jane had already quietly walked out, and took away Catherine, who was watching the excitement, and Lydia, who was trembling for some reason.

Elizabeth was now left to enjoy her time alone, and was really looking forward to the arrival of two days later.

As expected, Darcy brought Mrs. de Boere to Longbourn at noon the next day, as he said, but to Elizabeth's disappointment, Wu Zhao was not among them.

"She and Anna went to London first, and I will go there to meet her later." Mrs. de Boer looked around at the furnishings of Bennett's house, frowned indistinctly, but answered Elizabeth's question calmly. Doubt, "This year's adult dance may be brought forward to celebrate the victory of the army, so Gina has to prepare in advance."

Elizabeth nodded quickly and thanked Mrs. de Boer.

Darcy whispered a few words from the side, but he didn't say much. The matter of Anna and Asha was too shocking. Now is not a good time to explain it clearly to Elizabeth. He only said that there are still some troubles in the matter, and we will talk about it later.

"Where is Mr. Bennett? Please allow me to meet his old man first." Darcy nodded politely to Mrs. Bennett and asked.

Perhaps it was because Darcy's appearance and demeanor were too serious, and he was not as easy-going as Mr. Bingley's at all. Mrs. Bennet didn't dare to come forward to make a fuss with him, and she answered concisely, and the matter went very smoothly.

Although Mrs. de Boer is still dissatisfied with Elizabeth, but with a heart that loves her nephew, and Darcy's handle, she is not willing to become stiff—after she dies, don't she still point to Darcy Looking after your own children?

So the two families had a happy day.

Both Darcy and Mrs. de Boer did not stay long, they bid farewell to the Bennett family at night, and rushed back to London overnight.

Elizabeth was confused, why did she leave in such a hurry?

in a hurry!How can you not be in a hurry?

Mrs. de Boer hasn't seen her biological daughter for more than ten years. No matter how well Wu Zhao assured her, Yasha was spoiled and raised by Chris's family and has never been wronged, but when she thought of Chris's family going bankrupt , my daughter is afraid that life will be difficult, how can she calm down and pass slowly?

The two of them drove all night, and finally arrived in London around dawn.Wu Zhao deliberately avoided Anna and asked Qing Niang to wait for them outside the city in a carriage.

Mrs. de Boer almost couldn't wait to hold Wu Zhao's hand as soon as she got off the carriage and asked

: "Where is she? Where is she?"

Wu Zhao said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be so anxious - Yasha does live not far away, but you come from a long way, you always need to change clothes and wash up a little?"

Mrs. De Boer just wanted to refuse, but Wu Zhao continued, "And it's only six o'clock. It's too strange for me to see Asha at this time. Even if I made an appointment yesterday, the appointment was at nine o'clock."

Only then did Mrs. de Boer reluctantly agree, she was a little out of her mind, and she didn't want to see Anna at this time, for fear that she couldn't help showing something—although Anna was the daughter of Hirels, after all, she raised more than a dozen of them herself. Years, it is false to say that there is no emotion.

That day, after Xirels was whipped and sold the plantation, Mrs. De Boer looked at the innocent little face of sleeping Anna, and secretly decided that Anna would be her own daughter in the future.

Seeing this, Wu Zhao also knew that Mrs. de Boer would not want to enter the city. Fortunately, she had already made preparations and asked someone to book a room in a hotel outside the city, which was just in handy now.

"Young lady, take your aunt to rest for a while. Sara, go and get a change of clothes from the carriage."

Wu Zhao arranged everything in an orderly manner. Mrs. de Boer was shocked when she saw her, as if her flustered mind was instantly comforted, and she calmed down a lot. Don't be chaotic in the face of danger, the housekeeper will definitely be deceived by someone in the future.Anna gave her to let go of most of her heart.

Qing Niang stepped forward and took Mrs. De Boer to the hotel to rest—it was said to be a rest, but in fact, Mrs. De Boer may not be able to really rest and rest now, but to wash up and change, and drink a cup of coffee to calm down.

Yasha, whom Wu Zhao asked the day before, went to a coffee shop at nine o'clock today for a chat. She only said that she hadn't seen her for a long time and that she really missed her. Naturally, she never mentioned Mrs. de Boer's arrival.

As Wu Zhao expected, Mrs. De Boer came out with a nervous face after not staying in the hotel for long. She saw Wu Zhao looking over with a smile, pulled her skirt unnaturally, and forced a smile: "I am like this, is it okay?"

"Of course!" Wu Zhao stepped forward, took Mrs. de Boer's arm affectionately, and led her to the nearby cafe. "Auntie's style is still the same as before."

Mrs. De Boer relaxed a little, and said with a smile: "This is not a lie, your mother and I were famous beauties!"

She thought of the past when she was young, and her back straightened even more, but she suddenly sighed after a while: "I don't know if that child looks like me..."

Wu Zhao sat down on the opened chair, smiled and comforted, "When Yasha comes, you can see for yourself—well, let me tell you, her nose and eyes are a bit like yours!"

The wrinkles on Mrs. de Boer's face were stretched out. She seemed to have overlooked that Asha was actually more similar to Lewis, and began to let Wu Zhao look at how similar Asha was to herself.

The two were talking happily, when suddenly a crisp voice came from behind, asking doubtfully, "Gina, is that you?"

Wu Zhao hurriedly turned her head and couldn't help but look

The front light - Asha is here!

She smiled and stood up, and while pulling the little girl to sit beside her, she introduced, "Oh, this is my aunt." Wu Zhao said apologetically, "I'm sorry that I invited the elder over without informing you. It's just a coincidence—my aunt just came from Hunsford with my cousin, and I heard that I want to see my friends, and I must meet you, a lovely little girl."

Yasha lowered her head in embarrassment. After seeing Mrs. de Boer looking at her non-stop, she thought it was what Wu Zhao said that made this lady so interested in her!

She hurriedly whispered: "What, what you said is too exaggerated—Madam, hello, I'm Alyssa Chrissy, you can call me Asha, that's what my friends call me."

Mrs. de Boer has been staring at Yasha for a long time. This is a very healthy and happy little girl, wearing a bright yellow pleated skirt, stepping on a pair of white mid-heel leather shoes, and holding a pearl in her hand. The small bag looks like she is sixteen or seventeen years old. If she didn't know her actual age, Mrs. de Boer would really not doubt anything.

"Okay, okay!" Mrs. de Boer said three good words excitedly. She endured and endured so that she didn't hug Yasha and cry bitterly when they met. She just took Yasha's hand and asked, "How old are you, Where do you live now? Is there anything you want?"

Yasha was at a loss, and felt that this lady was too enthusiastic. She replied obediently: "I am 16 years old, and now I live with my parents in a house in the suburbs."

She raised her head and smiled sweetly at Mrs. de Boer, thanking her and saying, "Thank you Madam for your love, but I don't have anything I want."

Mrs. de Boer nodded repeatedly, took Yasha's hand and kept rubbing it, and asked a lot of caring words, until Yasha felt a little embarrassed and quietly gave Wu Zhao a wink for help, and then she restrained herself a lot.

Wu Zhao just watched from the side, not wanting to disturb their mother-daughter reunion, and only spoke a few words slowly afterwards.

Mrs. de Boer gradually lost her composure, and Wu Zhao saw that the situation was not good, so don't be tempted to recognize each other, right?

She hurriedly interrupted: "Aunt's family also has a cousin who is about your age. She came to London for the first time and wanted to know more about it—by the way, Asha, Earl Campbell has already checked about your family's affairs. Chris Although the Lord’s lost money cannot be fully recovered, it is still possible to make up part of it.”

Sure enough, Yasha's attention immediately turned to Wu Zhao, and she no longer wondered why Mrs. de Boer asked in such detail.

She was so happy that she was about to jump up, hugging Wu Zhao's arm again and again to express her gratitude, "Really? Thank you so much, Gina!"

"Dad has been sad about this for a long time. She doesn't think about eating and drinking every day, and so does Mom. Although she still looks smiling, I can always see that she is worrying. Now it's all right!" Yasha thought happily I must tell Chris and his wife when we go back, so that they will be happy too.

This little girl, who was naive a few months ago, put on an old-fashioned look at this time and sighed, "Father took the risk for me, even if he was

I lied, and I shouldn't blame myself so much! "

She wrinkled her little nose and muttered in a low voice: "What's more, I still think it's pretty good now, and my mother doesn't have to drag me out to tea parties all the time. A person who sees the truth clearly.”

Mrs. de Boer heard Asha talk about her parents so intimately and with attachment, and she has slowly recovered. She sighed indistinctly, and secretly squeezed her handbag. After all, she didn't say anything, and listened silently. , just glanced at Wu Zhao nervously when he heard the last word.

Wu Zhao knew what Mrs. De Boer wanted to know, so she deliberately smiled and joked: "Just now when you came here, I saw the Burns family's carriage outside, I bet, it must be Mr. Burns who sent you here—— Now you don’t need to think too much about the sincere person you are talking about, it must be him!”

Yasha's face was flushed, she glared at Wu Zhao not to be outdone, and said with a groan, "Not only me, but also you——Your Excellency Earl Campbell can't handle such a trivial matter like ours? Then he is For whom did you do it yourself?"

Now it was Wu Zhao's turn to smile without saying a word.

Mrs. De Boer paid attention to this little Pence, and secretly thought that she must ask little Pence about his background and family when she went back.

Yasha quickly bid farewell to the two, and she said apologetically, "It was because Gina came back, and I really wanted to see her, so I came out for the appointment. Today is my mother's birthday, and I must rush back at noon with her."

Wu Zhao smiled and got up to see her off, "Say hello to Mrs. Chris for me, and also to the lord for my brother—tell them the good news, the lord and madam will definitely be happier."

Yasha nodded vigorously, and after the carriage had gone a long way, she leaned out and waved to Wu Zhao unceasingly.

Mrs. de Boer couldn't help raising her hand and waving at Asha, and she didn't put her arm down until the carriage was gone.

"Gina, are Asha's parents in financial crisis?" Mrs. de Boer stared at the direction where Asha left, and asked in a low voice, "And little Pence, what kind of person is that?"

It was only then that Wu Zhao remembered that she had not introduced the ins and outs of the Chris family to Mrs. De Boer. While taking Mrs. De Boer into the carriage, she slowly explained to her the reason why the Chris family was in financial crisis, and finally concluded: : "In short, there is a group of swindlers who deceived Lord Chris, whose beloved daughter was eager to save a considerable dowry for his unmarried daughter, but the matter has been resolved."

"And little Burns, that's a nice guy. His younger sister is a girl who is a classmate of mine and Yasha. The family knows everything about him, and Mrs. Chris is also very optimistic about him."

Mrs. de Boer listened silently, and after a while, she suddenly said, "Gina, I have a decision."
