Mrs. Darcy's daily life

23 chapter

Caroline got up early the next morning and had breakfast and went to the Hearst mansion. She was going to see Erwin.

Passing through a huge square, the carriage turned into an avenue. This is a huge villa area. The entire area is divided into several parts that sit on both sides of the avenue. The Hearst Mansion is located in the middle of the avenue. The mansion is not big but not too small, with trees in the forest, and the environment is quiet.

Caroline came all the way to the Hearst Mansion in a carriage, and Louisa just got up to eat at this time.

"Have you had breakfast? It's so early."

"Already eaten, where's Erwin?" Caroline asked directly as soon as she walked into the restaurant.

"Still sleeping in the room."

"Oh, then I'll go and see her first." As soon as the voice fell, she had already left, and Luisa hadn't had time to say anything.

When Caroline walked into the crib where Erwin slept, a group of small people appeared in front of her, white and fat, covered with a small quilt, with a cute and round head exposed, sleeping It was extraordinarily sweet, with her fingers biting in her mouth and drooling, which almost melted Caroline's heart, making her breathe a little easier, and couldn't help touching Erwin's little head, dark brown The hair was soft against Caroline's palm, very comfortable.Caroline slowly leaned over and kissed Erwin's white and tender cheeks, like being trapped in a ball of cotton, soft and with a milky scent.

Perhaps because he couldn't stand being rubbed by Caroline, Erwin frowned slightly, his brows were still very light, and he yawned big with his chubby mouth, and opened his eyes to look at Caroline in front of him.

Looking at the person in front of him, Erwin stretched out his chubby little hand, stared at Caroline with his big blue eyes, and said "ah, ah" in his mouth.Apparently, Erwin inherited his aunt's blue eyes and dark brown hair.This made Caroline love him even more.

"What's wrong with our little baby?" Caroline grabbed Erwin's little hand, and gently pinched it by the way. It was soft and very comfortable to touch.

Erwin kept stretching out his hand to look at Caroline, but she was ecstasy taking advantage of others, squeezing her little hands and then her little arms like lotus joints.

Finally, after 1 minute, Erwin cried out with an unbearable "wow", which made Caroline jump.The nanny heard the crying and rushed in, hugged him, and comforted him. After tidying up Erwin and feeding him enough, Caroline made a sound. During this time, she silently watched the nanny take care of the little guy.

"Give him a hug."

"Okay, Mrs. Darcy." The nanny tidied up Erwin's clothes and shook them in her arms before slowly walking over and carefully putting Erwin into Caroline's arms, while guiding her Caroline's pose.

"Mrs. Darcy, you must support his head with this hand. Young Master Hurst's waist is still very soft and has no support. It is easy to fall if you are not careful," the nanny said. Place her right hand on Erwin's small head and let her entire arm cross his back for support.

Caroline held the little guy's soft buttocks, supported his head with one hand, and hugged him carefully.She had never held a child before, so she didn't dare to make too much movement for fear of throwing him.

As if he knew that his aunt was in a hurry, Erwin put his little head on Caroline's shoulder obediently at this time, and did not move or make a fuss. He was very quiet and cute.

Caroline looked at the little guy lying on her shoulder, her heart softened, she touched his head, and said, "Little baby, remember, I am your aunt."

The little guy clenched his fist and said "Ah oh" twice, as if he was answering Caroline. She was so happy that he kissed him excitedly.

"Ah! Our little baby is so smart, he knows how to answer his aunt! Come on, let's go down to see mother."

Caroline hugged Erwin and went downstairs carefully under the care of the nanny. At this time, Luisa was in the living room. Seeing them, she smiled and said, "I woke up, why is it so early today."

"That's because my aunt is here, so Irwin must have felt it, so I woke up early to greet me, didn't I, baby?" Caroline said happily, completely forgetting that she had a crush on Erwin. His kisses and touches woke him up early.

As soon as he saw Louisa, Erwin immediately stretched out his hands "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"" Sha, patted his little butt, and muttered in a low voice: "Little heartless."

"Well, why do you still care about Erwin, why are you becoming more and more like a child now."

Caroline smiled flatteringly and changed the subject: "Luisa, Hearst is busy with the factory and doesn't have time to accompany you, and Erwin's grandparents have also gone to the country. Why don't you and Erwin go to my place?" Well, then I can help you take care of Erwin."

"Isn't it, baby, it's more fun to live at my aunt's house?" Caroline pinched Erwin's little face and smiled like a child trafficker.

"It's fine, I can go wherever you are. If Charles brings Elizabeth and the others, I can help you." Louisa readily agreed to Caroline's proposal.

"Well, then we'll leave after lunch." Caroline didn't care what the reason for Louisa's visit was, as long as someone went.

After the decision was made, Louisa Laling called the servants and told them to pack up her and Erwin's things and send them to Darcy's mansion.As for them, they have to wait until the afternoon.

"Madam, here is the list of accounts sent from the manor, please take a look," said the housekeeper in the mansion, holding a letter and handing it to Luisa.

"What list of accounts?" Caroline approached Luisa curiously and asked.

"Hey, what else is it? It's not the repair of the house on the manor. It rained heavily a month ago. One of the attics in the manor was damaged, and even the surrounding rooms were eroded by the rain. You know that , The manor of the Hearst family is old, and many places need to be repaired."

"Is the loss serious?"

Luisa worried Yaoyao head: "There is nothing valuable in the attic, the loss is not big, but it will cost a lot of money to repair it, and this time I asked them to restore the rest of the manor. It has been reinforced and repaired, and some carpets and furniture have been replaced, but this is also a considerable amount of money.”

Caroline took the list in Louisa's hand and looked at it. The total cost on it was 800 pounds, which was really a lot of money.

Now the Hurst family's manor in Yorkshire has a history of more than 100 years. Coupled with the subsequent poor management, the house has been in disrepair for a long time. After Louisa married in, the situation is better. At least the house is repaired and the furnishings are replaced. Louisa can use her own dowry to make up for these expenses, but after so many years, I am afraid that there is not much left in Louisa's dowry, otherwise she would not be so worried because of the 800 pounds.

"Is your dowry running out?" Caroline asked directly.

"It is true that there are not many, but there are still some, plus the income from the land in the manor every year, it is still no problem to maintain life, but it is a bit difficult." At this point, Luisa turned her head and held Carlo's hand and said: " Now I only hope that the method you gave Hearst is really useful, that it can make the Hearst family get better gradually, and that Erwin can have a better life in the future, and I don't want to think about other things."

"Don't worry, you will, Louisa, you don't have to worry," Caroline encouraged. Now she has nothing to do but to comfort her. The matter of the wheelchair is still in preparation, and she has no idea what the outcome will be. Sure, after all, she wasn't involved in the project the whole time except to come up with an idea.

The current situation of the Hearst family is not optimistic. Although the income from the land in the manor remains the same, with the development of the times, the income that the land can bring is getting lower and lower. After all, Britain’s overseas trade is huge. If Hearst Without the ability to realize mass production of land, it will lose its advantage in this sooner or later.The same is true for all manor owners, even the Darcy family, but fortunately, the Darcy family's focus is mainly on business, and the income from the manor property is not that important, and it is better than the Darcy family has a capable owner , now the annual income of Pemberley Manor is actually not low.

But these have nothing to do with Caroline, her current situation is no better than Louisa, and there is one thing she didn't dare to tell Louisa that she used all the dowry of [-] pounds , she is now a poorer person than Louisa.

When he arrived at Darcy's mansion in the afternoon, Erwin had just woken up. Caroline took the little guy from the nanny, and he kept turning his head and looking around, obviously very curious about it.

Caroline carried him into the hall, just in time to meet Darcy who was going downstairs.

Darcy has just finished processing some documents, about the Hearst factory, he got involved in this matter after sending Georgiana to school, and invested some funds as shares, Charles also did the same, but Hearst due to I'm not very familiar with business, and most things still require Darcy to come forward.

Erwin looked curiously at Darcy who came downstairs, staring at him blankly.

Stared at by Erwin's big moist blue eyes, Darcy couldn't help but walked over.

"Ah, ah," Erwin yelled, reaching out to Darcy.

Darcy showed a rare smile, reached out and gently stroked his little head.

"Is this Erwin?"

"Well," Caroline nodded lightly, when Louisa just came over, Darcy put down her hands and said, "If there is anything Erwin needs me to do, you can tell me, and I will try my best to do it. "

Luisa was a little surprised, but she glanced at her son and nodded, "Okay, I will."Louisa was slightly surprised by Darcy's behavior, but she took it for granted when she thought of her own son. Her Erwin was the cutest, and it was normal to be liked.
