hello mr darcy

"Destination?" Lydia raised her eyebrows and couldn't help turning her head to look at Miss Bingley who was not far away.

Caroline Bentley is indeed not young. Even with a dowry of [-] pounds, it is impossible for people to completely ignore the problem of her age.

Thinking of this, even Lydia couldn't help shaking her head and sighing.

"What's the matter?" Jane asked.

Lydia pursed her lips: "Tell me, how persistent is Miss Caroline that she is willing to spend so much time on another person who has no hope?"

Jane agreed deeply, and nodded in approval: "That's right. Lydia, you can't even imagine. When Charles and Caroline talked about this matter at the beginning, Miss Bingley would have such a strong reaction. !"

Jane approached Lydia lightly, and said in a low voice, "I think you must have noticed the red marks on Charles' hands!"

"Yes." Lydia nodded.

As soon as Mr. Bingley came in, he always involuntarily put his right hand behind his back, but he used his left hand to drink tea.Although the movements are smooth and gentlemanly, it's hard to hide the subtle awkward feeling.

There was a bit of dissatisfaction in Jane's eyes: "Caroline was so angry that she wanted to beat poor Charles. God knows how Charles forgave her. If it were me, I would definitely not bother with her anymore."

"So, Mr. Bingley is a very good-tempered person!" Lydia comforted softly, and patted the back of Jane's hand lightly, "Didn't you know it early on, and fell in love with this kind of person very deeply?" Is it quality?"

"Lydia!" Jane scolded, her ears flushed a little.

The conversation of the ladies here, although their voices were extremely low, attracted two people whose minds were on girls.

"Darcy, what do you think Jenny is talking to Miss Lydia?" Bingley asked curiously, "I rarely see her so cute with reddened ears!"

Darcy's gaze was falling on Lydia very lightly, and there was a bit of warmth in his eyes involuntarily.Hearing Bingley's voice, when he turned his head, the smile on the corner of his lips was still there, and Bingley was almost taken aback.

"My God, Darcy! This is the first time I've seen your... uh, gentle eyes." Bingley trembled all over. "To be honest, this is really terrible."

Darcy: ...What's the matter that you suddenly don't want to talk to this person?

He found a place to sit down, and although he couldn't fully see the girl when he was standing, he also chose a good angle, so he could always see Lydia when he looked up.

Darcy pursed his lips and slightly raised the corners of his mouth, feeling extremely satisfied with the layout of the living room.

"Darcy?" Bingley tentatively asked in a low voice, "You won't be angry, will you?"

Hearing this, Darcy turned his head very smoothly, and looked his friend up and down.He raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course not, Bentley."

"This is really great!" Bentley clapped his hands, and the whole person relaxed.Quite a look of "If you say you are not angry, then it has nothing to do with me".

Fortunately, Darcy understood his sunny temperament and didn't say anything.

"Darcy, do you know what Jenny and the others are talking about?" Obviously, Mr. Bingley couldn't let go of this kind of thing easily.

Darcy frowned: "I never knew that you are such a person who likes to inquire about things."

Bingley shook his head: "That's not true. If I didn't see Jenny smiling so happily, I wouldn't care what they said. But..."

He turned his head and looked at his lovely wife not far away, and the affection in his eyes was about to overflow: "If I can know, can't I give her some happiness in the days to come?"

This answer made Darcy look at him differently for a moment. He looked at his friend and was silent for a long time before letting out a long breath.

If it was him before, he would definitely not be able to understand this feeling of being filled with another person.

but……

Darcy stared at Lydia, who was not far away, and felt that seeing the girl's smile made him feel better, and his heart was full of joy.

If you have enough water to drink, that's a good point.

The two gentlemen were immersed in the girl's smile, so they didn't know that the smile on their faces had unconsciously filled the surroundings.

As Caroline, who was watching all this, it just felt colder in her heart.

Caroline was talking to Mr. Henry about the superficial tastes of several other houses that had redecorated their living rooms recently.Turning around, seeing Darcy and his brother in a daze, he couldn't help it anymore.

"Mr. Darcy, I heard that you were injured when you went hunting a few days ago. Are you feeling better now?" Caroline asked, her eyes fell on Lydia's side.

The days of disappearance were not short, but they could not be called very long either.

Mr. Darcy's explanation for this period of time was a failed hunt.Even if it barely explained his embarrassment and wasted bullets.

Of course, it is impossible to completely conceal it.Most of the people in Longbourne have various conjectures.The imagination is not rich.

However, for the sake of Lydia's reputation, after discussing with Mr. Bennet, Darcy still felt this way to explain.

Caroline's body leaned forward slightly, and her eyes fell on Darcy again from Lydia at the side, her eyes focused.It seemed that the answer to this question was extremely important to her.

When Darcy heard this, his eyes turned cold, and he looked up at Caroline who was expecting.

"There is no serious injury, thank you for your concern."

The words could not be more polite, but it made Caroline's back feel cold.It was as if the man in front of him had seen through all his thoughts.

She hesitated for a while, and then nodded in an extremely slow response: "Oh, yes."

After finishing speaking, she shrank her body back, not at all like talking wantonly like before.

But Darcy seemed to be finally satisfied, his straight waist relaxed slightly, and he leaned against the gorgeous velvet behind him.For a while, he didn't speak again.

However, Henry is a person who is very good at observing words and expressions.After seeing such a scene, he didn't chat with Caroline about those wild things anymore.For him, this was really a sigh of relief.

If Miss Bingley hadn't been Charles' sister, he would have hardly wanted to say a word.

The waiting room, which was still lively, fell silent like this.

Lydia blinked and couldn't help smiling at Darcy.Being able to be so straightforward, although a little blunt, made her extremely satisfied.

Jane looked at Lydia's smiling face, and then turned her head to sneak a glance at Darcy.With a guess in my heart, I leaned closer to Lydia's ear and asked in a low voice: "What's going on with you and Mr. Darcy now?"

Lydia turned her head away, smiled at her caring sister, and didn't hide it.

"I think, in the near future, I will live here."

"Really?" Jane's eyes widened in surprise, and her voice involuntarily became louder.When he realized this, he hurriedly covered his mouth again.

She took a few deep breaths before confirming again: "Are you two already engaged?"

got engaged?

Lydia raised her eyebrows, consciously recalling the bet between the two.After carefully considering the words several times, he nodded.But before Jane was about to show a pleasant smile, she interrupted very quickly.

"However, it can't be regarded as an extremely formal unmarried state." Lydia thought for a while, and really didn't know how to explain this delicate moment with a little interest, so she simply waved her hand, "I guess it will take a while." a period of time."

As if suddenly remembering something, Lydia held Jane's hand, her eyes were full of seriousness: "Jane, you must promise me. Don't tell mother, I really can't bear it. "

Facing Jane's eyes of approval, Lydia pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Besides, it's not completely settled yet!"

"Can I join you?"

The two were talking happily when a voice sounded from the side.Lydia turned her head and looked over, it was Georgiana who was holding tea.

"Of course, Jane and I are very welcome." Lydia smiled and nodded.

Georgiana sat down in a hurry, took a long sip of tea, and then let out a long sigh of relief: "It can be considered that I have sat down. You don't know how terrible the atmosphere is after Mr. Bingley's quiet down!"

"Oh, really?" Lydia was very interested, "Are you afraid of Darcy?"

Georgiana waved her hand: "That's not true. It's just that after everyone is silent, that Mr. Henry will always stare at me and my brother, which really makes my hair stand on end."

After finishing speaking, she trembled all over in a serious manner.It was as if he was really frightened by a terrible fright.

Lydia and Jane couldn't help laughing at the full appearance of a little girl.

"I didn't know that you are such a lovely girl." Jane joked with a smile, "If I had known earlier, Charles should have brought me to visit you earlier."

"This is really great. Pemberley welcomes you very much. It's always very quiet here." Georgiana said, her eyes lit up. "My brother is always running around outside, and I'm extremely lonely by myself."

Jane agreed, and quickly set the time for the next visit with the happy Georgiana.The little girl who was looking forward to it, holding her own teacup, was about to burst into joy.

"Georgianna, Mr. Bingley and the others are here now, and you are already looking forward to the next visit." Lydia nodded the little girl's nose, "Mr. Darcy will be envious."

"It's okay, I really hope she can socialize with friends more."

Darcy's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
