[Zhongyingmei] Good men are to be robbed!

"Sally, is it a boy or a girl?" Ruth, who had just given birth, was pale and weak.

"It's a boy, miss." Sally brought Ruth the soup, picked her up, and fed him spoonful by spoonful.

"Hold him and show me." Ruth turned her face away from the spoon, impatiently.

Sally's expression froze, and she tried her best to pretend nothing happened: "Let's see after eating, miss, he is sleeping!"

"Bring her here!" Ruth sensitively sensed that something was wrong, she knew Sally just as Sally knew her, and she wanted to get up excitedly, "Where is my child?"

"Get out." Darcy stood at the door at some point. After he gave Sally instructions, he walked to the bedside and sat down next to Ruth. As a new father, he still had a tenderness on his brows, "Lie down well. ,eat first."

"Tell me, where did you take my son?" Ruth panicked. She held Darcy's arm tightly and stared at Darcy.

"Pemberley." Darcy's eyes showed a bit of unbearable.

"That's my child!" Ruth's voice was extremely sharp because of her fright and anger, her eyes were red, and she roared heart-piercingly.

"My heir is naturally born of my wife." Darcy's voice was like a basin of cold water cooling Ruth's heart. Something is broken.

"We'll have another baby." Darcy's reassurance didn't float into her ears at all.

-

"Why did you take your daughter away?" Her face was pale, she stepped on the marble floor with bare feet, and she was still wearing the skirt she wore during childbirth, which was stained with blood.She stood at the door, her azure blue eyes lacked any brilliance, her voice was weak, she was obviously so weak, but she was stubborn.

"You don't want your daughter to live the rest of her life as an illegitimate daughter." He snuffed out the cigar in his hand, hugged her horizontally, and frowned, "Why don't you wear shoes, you can't catch a cold now!"

In the dead of night, Darcy put on a coat casually and leaned on the recliner. It was rare for Darcy to light a cigar. In fact, he seldom touched this thing. Maybe it was influenced by his dream, so he rarely found one and lit it.There was only one dim bedside lamp on. At the age of 18, he supported the family business by himself. Until the age of 28, he was always proud of his calmness and reason.But for the first time, he doubted, could the calm and cruel self in the dream really be his future self?Like a bystander, he witnessed Ruth's sadness and despair in the dream, but at the same time, he was like a party involved, experiencing inner struggle and pain.

He fully understood Ruth's hysteria tonight.She always thought that her children never knew her.But in this world, what impenetrable wall is there?She didn't know that their son was very intelligent, and he figured out his life experience at a young age.Otherwise, she thought it was just a coincidence that every time she sneaked into Pemberley, she could see them this time.That was when Aaron took his younger sister to play in the garden on purpose, just to let her take a look.Darcy, who had never cried since his father's death, had slightly red eyes.Everything is for the family, he was born not only to enjoy the family's benefits, but also shoulder the responsibility of continuing the family's glory.Therefore, no matter how much he loves Ruth, even Ruth is more suitable for Mrs. Darcy than Elizabeth, but everything is doomed from the beginning.

He insisted on marrying Elizabeth, who was out of tune with the upper class. The contempt and rejection of everyone made her feel restless and irritable for a long time.Married for ten years without a child, the burden of Pemberley's inheritance weighed heavily on her shoulders, and the gossip in the manor made her increasingly depressed.And the Abel he carried back may be the spark that made her explode in the end.Because of the different education they received since childhood, their values ​​are far-reaching.In Darcy's view, he respected her status as the mistress by bringing the child under her name to be raised by her.You must know that in most families, the children did not take them home until they became adults to inherit the family business. With their own mother, how could they recognize the mistress.But in Elizabeth's view, this is evidence that Darcy betrayed their love and their marriage.She couldn't accept that her so-called love turned out to be a joke in the end.Is it because she can't give birth?Because of such thoughts, she never took care of Aaron for a day, never hugged him, never raised him.When decades passed and she was still alone without any children of her own, it was too late when she wanted to get back the feeling of being a mother from him.

He was a mistake with Elizabeth.

And he and Ruth... Darcy's eyes revealed a firm belief: in this life, they will never miss each other again!

Ruth has been shutting herself out since the next day, and meals are delivered to the house, and she refuses to meet Darcy.Of course, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Darcy took the key and entered Ruth's room on the fifth day.

"You dare to trespass into a lady's room! Mr. Darcy, where's your honor?" Ruth was furious and couldn't believe it.

"I thought our relationship was close enough," Darcy grabbed her arm and went down. He pressed her ear tightly and threatened: "I'd be more than happy to carry you out, dear Ruth."

Ruth, who was still struggling, calmed down under his eager eyes, and reluctantly followed him downstairs.

After being stuffed into the carriage by Darcy, Ruth realized something was wrong after a while, and she asked, "Where are you taking me?"

Darcy followed into the carriage. He was not in a hurry to answer Ruth's question, but first put a thin blanket on her knees, "Secret."

Nonsence!Ruth spat deeply in her heart, couldn't help but rolled her eyes, tugged at the blanket, and changed a comfortable position to lean on one side and close her eyes to rest.

Horseshoes rattling, driving on the country road, the fragrance of wild flowers and green grass penetrated into the carriage through the slightly flapping curtain.

This walk is five days.At the beginning, Ruth would ask a few questions about the destination, but every time, in exchange for Darcy's eyes, she didn't know what to say. Afterwards, Ruth didn't ask any more questions, and simply regarded it as a trip to see the scenery.

Not long after walking on the sixth morning, the carriage stopped.

"The carriage is broken?" Ruth was trying to catch up on sleep, but when she felt that the carriage had stopped, her first reaction was that the carriage was broken.God knows she hates broken carriages the most, what a trouble!Fortunately, they didn't go for long, and it would be quick to call someone to fix it later.She frowned dissatisfied.

"No, we're here." Darcy thought it was cute just waking up and frowning in a daze. He jumped out of the car first, turned around and reached out to help her.

Ruth held the skirt in one hand and supported Darcy out of the car with the other, and then took a good look around.Entering the eyes, the white house with the same idyllic style comes into view.The house is surrounded by familiar small white fences, and a dark brown oak sign hangs on the gate, which reads: rosepark (White Rose Manor).Ruth pushed open the door, and the garden was full of white roses blooming in the wind.Same, yet different.

Darcy followed, and he put his hand on Ruth's shoulder: "This is a gift from me, I hope it will be a surprise for you."

"Why?" Even if it wasn't the first time, the excitement was the same, even more intense.

"It symbolizes our love." Darcy's deep voice sounded, with affectionate memories, "Ruth, I have always loved you. The purpose of building Rose Manor for you is to make you happy and let you understand that I love you I know that in my last life I did a lot of things that were too cruel for you, and I can't erase the past, but thank God, He gave us another chance to do it all over again. You still love me, From your eyes, I can see your love, and I love you too. Ruth, I don't expect you to forgive me, but we cherish the present, shall we? Marry me, marry me. "

She covered her mouth, and tears fell in strings. Sorrow, joy, and helplessness were intertwined, and she couldn't cry.

Darcy hugged Ruth gently, like a fragile treasure: "Abel and the others have always missed you."

Wiping away the tears on Ruth's face with his fingers, and meeting her surprised eyes, Darcy said softly: "Abel is not like you, he is very smart, and he found out that you are his biological mother very early. Every time you When he came to Pemberley, he would deliberately take his sister to play in the garden, just to let you take a look."

Ruth's expression became more gentle with Darcy's words, which was a kind of tenderness that only belonged to a mother.

"Do you know what Abel said to me after your funeral after you passed away?" His tone became low, with a kind of deep powerlessness and sadness, "He said, the most regretful thing in his life is that he didn't Growing up by your side, enjoying the care of his mother. If he had a choice, he would rather start from scratch with the name of an illegitimate child. Ruth, I have doubted my original decision more than once."

"No, you are not wrong, your decision is correct." After all, she would never want her child to bear the title of illegitimate child.What is an illegitimate child?In the final analysis, the status is higher than that of a servant. In those families that took back the illegitimate child but did not recognize it, the illegitimate child did the same job as a servant, and the better one might be able to be a housekeeper.As for illegitimate daughters, any decent family would not marry such a woman, except for being a mistress or marrying a poor man.How could she be willing to watch her child suffer like this?For so many years, she suffered from the separation from her children, and she couldn't face this reality.And Mr. Darcy's actions just gave her a reason to resent, as if everything was not her fault, she was forced and helpless, so she could live with peace of mind.Ruth had to face her heart honestly with pain and embarrassment.

"Ruth, forget all the unhappy memories of the past. We have a chance to come back again, thank God, not sooner or later, brought you to my side."

Darcy's words made Ruth ashamed again. She dared not say that in her last life, she heard that he seemed to be engaged to a country gentleman's daughter, and turned away with reserved pride. In fact, she could have appeared in his life earlier. She gave up!

For the first time, Ruth began to deeply doubt her own IQ.
