Mrs. Darcy's daily life

"Ma'am, dinner is ready, you can eat," the housekeeper of Earl Riley's residence walked in and informed the Countess.Several male servants also dressed in decent tuxedos were leading the guests.Caroline chatted with a lady and walked into the restaurant together.

There is a huge dining table in the center of the restaurant, covered with a delicate white tablecloth, a row of gorgeous flowers and candlesticks in the middle, and tableware on both sides. Following the guidance of the servant, Caroline came to Take a seat at the table, and the person sitting opposite her is Mr. Krieger, a banker.

"Oh! Mrs. Darcy, you are so beautiful tonight!" Seeing Caroline sitting opposite, Mr. Kriegel said first.

"Really, Mr. Kriegel, I am very happy to receive such a compliment from you. By the way, I heard that you recently bought a beautiful manor in Lincolnshire. Then I really want to congratulate you."

"Yes, that manor is indeed very good, but it is still not as good as Pemberley Manor. After visiting Pemberley Manor last time in Derbyshire, the beauty there is unforgettable for me."

"If you wish, you are more than welcome to visit Pemberley Park next time."

"Of course! If I'm in Derbyshire again, I'll definitely visit you and Mr. Darcy at Pemberley Park."

Caroline took a sip of the wine, showed a polite smile, and put the glass aside: "Mr. Krieger, how is your manor taking care of? I heard that it will cost a lot to decorate the newly bought manor. Strong."

"That's right, the manor is still being laid out, and a group of servants are still being recruited. There are too many troubles. The most important thing is that I urgently need to find an agent for the property of the manor, but I haven't got the slightest idea yet. I don't know if Mrs. Darcy has someone who knows this and can recommend an agent for me."

Caroline's eyes lit up, hooked.

"Definitely, I will definitely recommend it to you to solve your urgent needs, but it may take a while."

"Madam Darcy, do you have any clues?" Mr. Coglier asked in surprise.

"Yes, I know such a person, but I don't know if he has found a job. I need to write a letter to ask. If he already has an employer, I'm afraid I will disappoint you."

"Really, it's okay, Mrs. Darcy can ask, if he already has an employer, I can find it slowly, but..." At this point, Mr. Coglier stopped and looked at Caroline a little apologetically. Said: "Even if he can really come then, I will have to investigate carefully. I hope Mrs. Darcy doesn't mind."

"Oh! Of course not. After all, finding an agent is a very important matter. It really needs to be carefully examined. If he can't satisfy Mr. Keglier, it's just his personal problem. You don't have to because I have What worries, after all, I just wanted to help you because Mr. Kriegel is struggling with this matter, and I suddenly thought of such a person." Caroline smiled lightly.

In fact, these are pure nonsense. Apart from attending the ball, she came to Earl Riley's mansion, which was also her purpose. She thought that Mr. Coglier would be fooled by waiting for the ball to start. The location of her is actually opposite her, it's really a coincidence that it's better to come early than to come early.

"In this case, I would like to offer you a toast. No matter what the result is, I am very grateful to Mrs. Darcy for your enthusiasm and generosity. If this matter is successful, then I will also thank you very much," said Mr. Coglier raised his glass and said to Caroline.

Caroline also picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "It's just a matter of raising your hands, Mr. Krieger doesn't have to be like this." At the end, the voice changed and teased: "However, if a big banker like you is toasting, then I must Have a drink."

Caroline's sense of wit and humor greatly benefited Mr. Krieger, and after a few pleasant smiles, he and Caroline picked up the wine glass and touched each other in the air.

After taking a sip of the wine in the glass, Caroline put down the wine glass and continued to cut and eat the food on the plate. While eating, she chatted with Mr. Kriegel opposite and the few people around, talking and laughing happily After eating this meal for a full hour, everyone ended up, and then went down to the ballroom under the leadership of the host.

The entire ballroom is large, but the layout is simple and elegant. There is no gorgeous carpet on the floor, but a clean and comfortable wooden floor. When you step on it, you can make a "tapping" sound, which is very pleasant. There are some tables and chairs for people to rest. Waiters with drinks and champagne come and go.

"Caroline, why didn't I sit with you?" Georgiana complained, holding Caroline's hand.

"What? Being bullied?"

Georgiana shook her head: "No, it's just that I'm not used to it."

"Haven't you been to a dance before? Don't you always sit with your brother."

"No, it's just that I have you now, I thought I would sit next to you," Georgiana said with a sweet smile.

Caroline poked Georgiana's head: "You, you have to learn to adapt to this kind of life alone, and I can't be with you all the time, you know?", I didn't expect the girl to have such a reaction to her. Large dependencies, this is not desirable.

"Oh~", Georgiana rubbed the place that was poked by Caroline and pouted in agreement. At this moment, Darcy came over. He had been talking with Mr. Duran from France at the dinner table just now. Now that the dance has started, Darcy will naturally come to find Caroline and the others.

"What are you talking about?" Darcy naturally saw Caroline poking Georgiana's head, and Georgiana's pouting made him laugh dumbfounded.

"It's nothing, brother," Georgiana said, holding Darcy's arm, "have you finished talking?"

Caroline automatically walked to Darcy's other side and took his arm.

Daxi Yaoyao nodded: "Now the dance party has started, these matters can be discussed later, and there is no rush now."

"By the way, where is Louisa?" Darcy turned to look at Caroline and asked.

"With Charles and the others, in front."

Darcy followed Caroline's line of sight, and sure enough, he saw Charles and the others in front, but there were other people in the middle, so he couldn't see clearly, but Darcy still saw the figure of Elizabeth following Charles and the others. Pursing his lips, Darcy looked away.

"Brother, please invite Caroline to the first dance later." Georgiana opened her eyes and turned to Caroline expectantly after speaking, "How about it, Caroline."

"No need, Georgiana, you can dance with your brother for the first dance. I want to take a break after eating." She ate too much, and she was afraid of stomach pain.

"Oh, that's alright," Georgiana nodded disappointedly: "Then I will dance with my brother for the first dance."

During this process, Darcy just glanced at Caroline in silence and didn't say anything. When the music of the first dance sounded, Caroline went to the rest area to sit down and rest, while Darcy took Georgiana to the dance floor.

"Mrs. Darcy is not going to dance," Colonel Black came over and glanced at the center of the dance floor and asked Caroline.

"I want to take a break after eating," Caroline shook her head, "By the way, how long has Colonel Black been in London?"

"I just arrived the day before yesterday, and this is the first dance I attended in London," Colonel Black said with a smile, and sat down next to Caroline.

"Really, then Colonel Black must come to the ball held at Darcy's mansion. I will have someone deliver the invitation to your house tomorrow. I didn't know you came to London. Are you going to spend Christmas in London this year?" ?”

"Well, yes, and I will definitely be there at the ball held by Mrs. Darcy. I originally planned to wait two days to visit you and Mr. Darcy at your house, but I didn't expect to meet you today, haha~"

"Colonel Black's visit is naturally very welcome. I hope you will arrive on time. My hostess must treat you Colonel Black well. Last time you praised the desserts at Pemberley Manor. In our London mansion Chef Colin is also very good, and he will never let Colonel Black down."

"Really, then I must arrive on time," Colonel Black said with a smile.

"This is..." Louisa asked, looking at Colonel Black who was chatting with Caroline.

"Oh, let me introduce you."

"This is Colonel Black," said Caroline to Louisa, and at last turning to Colonel Black, said: "This is my sister, Louisa Bentley Hurst."

"Hello, Mrs. Hurst," Colonel Black politely stood up and greeted Louisa.

After the two saluted each other, Luisa sat on another stool and chatted with them.

"Just now I saw that you were chatting happily, what are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, it's just that Colonel Black is coming to visit us in two days, and I'm naturally very happy to express my welcome," Caroline returned.

"Really, that's really great. Now I'm temporarily staying in Darcy's mansion. I'm very glad to meet Colonel Black again next time."

"So do I, Mrs. Hurst."

Louisa put down the wine glass in her hand, stared at Colonel Black and asked curiously: "You are a soldier, have you ever participated in a war?"

"I have participated in several times, and I was very lucky to survive, and I also received a national reward."

"Then have you ever been injured? I know that wars are cruel."

"Yes, it was very cruel. Although I was injured, I was very lucky to recover my life and be healthy," Colonel Black said optimistically.

"Really, I admire you very much for such a great soldier, you should be the hero of our country."

The chat atmosphere here is harmonious, although Caroline is playing soy sauce the whole time, because with Luisa who has [-] questions, basically she can't even get in the conversation.However, Colonel Black didn't look impatient in the face of Louisa's one after another question, but answered them carefully one by one.It can be seen that this should be a gentleman with a generous personality.

"Caroline, what are you talking about?" A voice temporarily broke their chat.
