hello mr darcy

Chapter 19 019

Mr. Bingley was extremely faithful to his promises.

At least, after Jane fully recovered, she really quickly started to make grand preparations for the first ball after Netherfield had a master.

Even Longborn's beef was bought by the Bentley family for a while.

"I guess we won't have goulash for a few days," said Mrs. Bennet.

Mr. Bingley really lived up to his reputation of being rich and powerful, and the things he bought were all excellent and high-quality goods.This surprised everyone in the town, and they became even more envious of the lucky Bennet family.

"Jane, you will really be lucky in the future." Mrs. Bennet not only said to Jane once, but even her face was full of endless yearning for the future.

The day of the prom was fast approaching, and Lydia was already in her riding attire, concealed by a skirt.

The rent in Netherfield Gardens was expensive, and this time everyone finally realized the reason.

Not to mention the expensive and beautiful furniture, the exquisite decoration is enough to show its value.

"Miss Lydia?" Mr. Bingley said hello for the third time, and Elizabeth tugged at Lydia's arm, finally drawing someone's attention back.

"Mr. Bingley." Lydia nodded.

Mr. Bingley didn't pay much attention to it, but Miss Bingley, who was standing beside him, glanced at him with an uneasy expression.

"Is Miss Lydia looking for someone?" Bingley asked.

Lydia nodded: "Is Mr. Bernal there?"

Just as he was talking, Richard had already walked up: "Lydia, I didn't expect you to come so fast!"

Lydia smiled and saluted the Bingley brothers and sisters, and followed Richard away.

"What a little girl who doesn't understand etiquette." Miss Bingley said to her brother in a low voice.

It's a pity that her actions can be regarded as playing the piano to the cow.Deeply indulging in Jane's tenderness, Mr. Bingley naturally loves his house and his crow.

He turned his head to his sister very seriously and said, "Don't talk about Miss Bennet like that, it's not good for her reputation."

Facing Caroline Bingley's surprised eyes, Bingley continued: "This is not what a lady does, Caroline."

Her dowry is still in the hands of her brother, so Miss Bingley naturally knows how to measure it.Although he was upset in his heart, he didn't show it on his face.He was even able to put on an appearance of being educated.

So, to be able to stand next to Mr. Darcy and defeat all the girls in London is naturally not an easy person.It's a pity that Darcy is a man of his own mind, and no one can tell how many years Caroline has to live with.

On the other side, Richard scratched his head: "Lydia, you came earlier than I thought. I'm afraid it will take a while for my horse to be ready."

Lydia raised her eyebrows: "It's okay, I can go with you."

With that said, he was about to walk towards the door of the ballroom.But she was pulled back by Richard's quick reaction, and she looked back at him in bewilderment.

"It should come as a surprise," Richard said.

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly walked towards the door: "Just wait a little while, just a little while!"

That tense look made Lydia smile on her face, and since Richard insisted, she just let it go.

Perhaps Charlotte did not attend the ball because of family affairs, so Lydia had to sit beside Mary and enjoy the opening dance between Jane and Mr. Bingley in the middle of the dance floor.

"They really fit!" Lydia whispered.

Mary obviously thought so too, and she nodded vigorously.After looking left and right to see that there was no one around, she whispered to Lydia, "I think maybe Jane and Liz can discuss the wedding date together!"

Lydia doesn't have a lot of guarantees about this matter.

After all, as far as she knew about the undetailed plot, this couple had to go through a lot of twists and turns.

On the other side of the ballroom, Miss Bingley was standing beside Darcy.

"What an interesting music, Darcy. Let's go dance together!" Although Caroline used the imperative sentence, she was extremely confident in her heart.

After all, at every ball, Darcy dances with people he knows most of the time!

However, what she didn't expect was that Darcy just shook his head and rejected her.

If this made Caroline feel a little bad on her face, then the next discovery was enough to make her feel cold.

Darcy's eyes were very focused, and his direction was straight to Lydia on the other side of the dance floor.

Caroline knew she had better not be so paranoid, there were many girls in that direction.What's more, Lydia is sociable, so after she sat down for a while, she was surrounded by a lot of girls.

Darcy was most likely looking casually at one of them.

Caroline said to herself in her heart.

However, even she couldn't deceive herself like this anymore, Darcy might have stared deeply at Lydia long ago.

Naturally, Miss Bingley would not let such a thing happen, she adjusted her stance, and slowly approached Mr. Darcy's ear.

"Darcy, I'm afraid you don't know yet! Mr. Bernal is going to give Miss Lydia a purebred pony from his stable!"

Darcy's eyelashes trembled slightly.

Caroline continued her efforts: "It's really unimaginable that my brother's friend would be tempted in such a rural place. However, as far as his affairs in London are concerned, this Miss Bennet may still have a lot to grind..."

She smiled sweetly, and was about to tell the interesting story about Mr. Bernal again, but Darcy turned and left before she could finish her sentence.

Although the goal was achieved, Miss Bingley stood alone by the dance floor, and she felt extremely pitiful.There is no joy of success at all, on the contrary, I feel that the endless laughter in front of me seems to set off my loneliness.

Didn't Darcy take it to heart?of course not.

He hurried towards the lounge, ready to take a sip of excellent vodka for himself.Darcy thought, when the burning breath of strong wine went straight into the lungs along the throat, the flame that came from nowhere in his heart would always be ignored.

However, when he came out after enjoying the spirits, he couldn't find Lydia anyway. He felt more and more that the flame, ignited by the spirits, seemed even more impressive. It hurts.

His hands slowly clenched into fists.

Outside the garden, Lydia was blindfolded by Richard and brought to another secluded place at this time.

"Three, two, one!" When Richardmond lowered his hand in front of her eyes, the beautiful scenery almost made Lydia speechless.

Richard waited anxiously for the girl's comment.

Lydia watched, speechless for a while.

Against the backdrop of the night, two Renaissance-style lamps were shining leisurely.All the way are flowers that have never been seen in this land, leading directly to a meadow.And there was an extremely cute purebred pony.

"Like it?" Richard asked.

Lydia nodded repeatedly.How could she, who came from a later life, fail to recognize that the flowers all over the ground may soon spread all over the footprints of Europe.

The orchid of the valley still carries its fragrance.A bunch of sunflowers next to it are stretching their bodies, very energetic.

Roses, irises, and even tulips that are no worse than later generations.Even the roses are in full bloom with two or three flowers.

"I think you like to travel. You must like the flowers in every place." Richard said.

The corners of Lydia's eyes were a little moist. In this era, it might not be easy to gather these flower seeds.Not just financial resources, human resources.More is the countless painstaking efforts that need to be spent.

Lydia looked at Richard's handsome face against the light, and an indescribable warmth hit her.

"I love it, love it," Lydia said. "Thank you, Richard."

The girl's approval obviously made him heave a sigh of relief, and tentatively took Lydia's hand.That small and soft hand, although a little shrunk, did not reject him.This made Richard almost unable to hide the smile on his face. He wanted to shout to the sky for a while, but he was afraid that he would scare his girl.I could only secretly smile in my heart, but the strength in my hands tightened unconsciously.

"anything else!"

He took Lydia to the grass.

In the previous position, the two steeds under the shade of the tree were blocked.

"Xiao Bu is still too young." He pointed to the purebred pony beside him, "I'll bring two other good horses, let's ride them first."

Lydia looked at the horse, and it really was a good horse.

She nodded and got on the horse with Richard's help.

However, for the sake of caution, she rode sideways first.

Seeing Lydia's cautious look, Richard tightened the rein and came to her side: "You can relax, Brown is a very docile mare."

Lydia looked at Richard, bit her lip, and then turned around tentatively, turning over and riding the horse.

Richard was briefly surprised by the side-riding method, which was different from that of a lady.

But at the next moment, he laughed for a long time: "I said why I thought it was strange to see you riding before, so this is more suitable for you!"

Richard's support made Lydia relax all of a sudden.

Although both Bingley and Darcy had seen her unique riding skills, but for some reason, when the person watching was replaced by Richard, Lydia actually felt a little nervous.

At this point, she finally relaxed.

As soon as the reins were tightened, the horse's belly was clamped between his legs, and he rushed out in an instant.
