Mrs. Darcy's daily life

The morning sun pierced through the clouds and shot directly at the earth, sprinkled with a touch of golden brilliance on this quiet countryside, a rooster crowed, loud and high-pitched, passed through the village and fields, and disappeared into the sky.The dewdrops trembled slightly, and there were colorful halos flowing on the tender green branches and leaves, which was magnificent.

Darcy walked through the shrubbery in the morning sun, skirted the hedge, and walked back to Netherfield Gardens from outside.At this time, he was wearing a silky white shirt with the neckline slightly open, and a light coat over it. A pair of brown leather boots wrapped his strong legs, and he stepped on the dewy grass. Make a "scratch" sound.

Early this morning he went out for a walk after breakfast, walked through the forest path, walked to the field, until now he came back from the outside, even though he didn't wear much, but after walking so far, now his face Sweat also broke out on the forehead, and a thin layer on the forehead wetted the tight hair, making it look a little messy.The whole body is steaming, walking step by step, breathing evenly and powerfully.

As soon as he walked to the door, Darcy met Jane and Charles, all dressed up, coming out of the house, and they were about to take a carriage to Longbourne.

"Oh, Darcy, where did you go so early in the morning, and you just came back now?" Charles asked as he stopped and looked at Darcy who came back from the outside.

Darcy's eyes fell on them calmly, and when he approached them, he answered briefly: "Walking".

His eyes swept over the two: "You are going to Longborn."

"Well, yes, Jane and I agreed yesterday to visit Longbourn today. Are you going, Darcy?"

Darcy shook his head.

"Hey! I knew you wouldn't go," Charles yelled triumphantly, "And you'd better not go, my mother-in-law doesn't seem to like you very much, and she will definitely not be happy if you go."

In this regard, Darcy just glanced at Charles's cheerful expression blankly.

"Oh, Charles, please don't say that." Jane looked at her cheerful husband with some blame, and then said to Darcy: "Darcy, my mother just misunderstood you, she doesn't dislike you, if you She will welcome a visit at Longbourn, too, and don't listen to Charles' nonsense."

Darcy nodded: "Then I'll go in first."

"Wait, Darcy," Charles hurriedly grabbed him, "I need you to do me a favor."

When Darcy looked at him, Charles said with a depressed face: "Please help me to plead with Caroline and Louisa, and say something nice. Caroline will definitely listen to you. As long as she forgives me, Louisa will forgive me too." Thinking of the scene where he went to Louisa but was ignored after the conflict happened yesterday, Charles was extremely depressed, and Caroline, although she would take care of him, had a cold attitude, which made him even more Be overwhelmed.

Suddenly hearing Caroline's name, Darcy instantly remembered what happened yesterday, clenched his hands tightly into fists, looked down at Charles and said indifferently: "This is your business, go by yourself", and finally He left without looking back.

Charles looked at Darcy's back in disbelief, and couldn't figure out why Darcy refused to help him.

Jane came over worriedly: "Charles".

"What's wrong with Darcy today, he has such a bad temper," Charles said with a frown.

"Maybe it's just something unhappy." Jane said, "Charles, I think if you want to get the understanding from Louisa and the others, you'd better go there yourself."

Charles had already told Jane about what happened after she and Elizabeth left yesterday. Although she was very grateful to Charles for his protection, Jane was also very worried seeing his sad appearance. She didn't want Charles to be with his sisters. Difficulty between.

"Yes, dear, let's not talk about it now, let's go to Longbourne first."

"Ok".

Darcy walked into the hall, ordered the servants to prepare water for his bath, and then walked directly to his room.Just halfway up the stairs, I ran into Caroline who was coming down the stairs.

Why did you go out early?

Caroline looked at the hot sweat on Darcy's face, and knew that he might have gone out for a walk early in the morning, but looking at the weather outside today, she felt relieved, the weather today is very good.

When Darcy saw Caroline, his face became more serious, and he looked at her with his lips pursed.

"Have Charles and Jane gone to Longbourne?" Caroline asked as they walked.

With a cold face, Darcy gave a "hmm" and quickly walked past Caroline and left.

Caroline turned her head to look at Darcy's back in surprise, raised her eyebrows slightly, what happened to this man today, was he not well yesterday, with this attitude today, it seems that she has not offended him.

Is it because of Elizabeth?Caroline thought silently, but the reflex arc was too long.

Caroline shrugged and didn't bother to care, and went directly downstairs to the restaurant.

When Charles and the others came back in the evening, they brought them the news that there was a ball in Netherfield Garden, and there was only less than five days of preparation time.

"Then congratulations, you are going to prepare for the dance right away," Caroline said casually when Charles announced the news in front of them.He stood up and walked towards the card table, just as Hurst called them to play cards.

Caroline guessed with her toes that Charles was going to hold a ball, and Mrs. Bennet and the others instigated it.The news of Charles' return to Netherfield Gardens yesterday has spread throughout the neighborhood. During the day, many invitations or greetings were sent to Netherfield Gardens. It is conceivable how much enthusiasm this area has for Charles and the others. Under such circumstances, why wouldn't Mrs. Bennet clamor for a ball.

"Oh, Caroline, can I ask you and Louisa to help us prepare for this dance?" Charles looked expectantly at Caroline and Louisa sitting at the card table.

"That's your business, Charles," Caroline only said lightly.

Facing Caroline's merciless refusal, Charles lowered his eyes in disappointment, and looked at Louisa the next moment, but Louisa ignored him at all, and finally he could only return in embarrassment.

Jane saw Charles' disappointment and held his hand to comfort him. Her eyes fell on Caroline and Louisa. Just as she was about to open her mouth to say something, Caroline's voice sounded.

"We are still short of one person, who of you still wants to play cards."

Darcy raised his head from the book and looked at the empty card table there, his expression tightened, but his face turned cold in the next second.

Caroline's eyes swept to the rest of Charles and Jane. As for Darcy, Caroline glanced back and looked away without even asking.

Today, Darcy gave Caroline a cold face for a day, so she naturally wouldn't find it boring to find him.

First, he may not come. Second, she doesn't want to have such a cold face when she is playing cards to affect her mood. Third, who does he think he is? He is cold to her, and she still wants to post cold ass.He had a bad temper, and she had a bad temper, Caroline rolled her eyes inwardly.

"Playing cards, oh, okay, I'll do it," Charles said hurriedly, facing Caroline's gaze, and ran to the empty seat to sit down.

Watching Charles sit in the last seat, Darcy lowered his head with a dark face and forced himself to continue reading, but now he couldn't read a word at all.

At the poker table, in order to please Caroline and Louisa, Charles kept giving way to them, causing Louisa and Caroline to pile up a pile of chips as high as a mountain in front of them. At the end of the game, he managed to get Luisa from being indifferent to finally agreeing to help him organize the dance.

And Caroline is still cold-hearted and unmoved, and she still won't help with organizing the dance.Louisa has a brotherly affection for him, and she will naturally forgive him when her anger subsides. Even without today's poker game, she will not be angry for long.But Caroline is different, she doesn't have any feelings for him, so there is no reason not to forgive, as long as Caroline thinks he is still useful one day, or turning against him will do more harm than good, she will not tear herself apart with Charles.

After playing the poker table, the happiest person is Charles, even though he is the one who loses the most.

Netherfield Garden was busy the next day. Jane and Louisa were busy preparing for the ball. Darcy, Charles and Hurst visited people in Meryton early in the morning. Caroline With Erwin, the little guy has started to learn to walk now. Although he is wobbly and unsteady, he can still walk a certain distance without falling.

After lunch, Erwin went to sleep, and Caroline was free. She was going to go for a walk around the area. After talking to Louisa and the others, Caroline ordered the kitchen to prepare some food for her and put it in the The country roads are all dirt roads. Fortunately, the weather is good these days, so it is not muddy.

All the way through the grass, through the fields, through the woods, Caroline came to the destination.

Surrounded by lush trees and blooming flowers, there is a calm lakeside in the middle, green as jade, clear and secluded, and occasionally the breeze blows by, causing a layer of ripples, sparkling and beautiful.

Caroline put the food box and folding fishing rod under a big tree, got up and walked around the lakeside, admiring it by the way, it is indeed a very beautiful and quiet environment.

Back under the big tree, Caroline took out a tablecloth and spread it on the grass, took out the food in the basket and laid it out, along with a bottle of white wine.

Holding the outside of the wine bottle with her fingers, the cold touch made Caroline, who had been walking for most of the day, feel particularly comfortable.

With a crisp sound of "Bo", the cork fell to the ground, and a faint white mist immediately emerged from the mouth of the bottle, and the aroma of wine was tangy.Caroline took out the wine glass and poured the wine in her hand into it. The transparent liquid immediately poured into the glass, smooth and smooth like a white streak.

Caroline sat under the big tree and took a sip of wine. Looking at the scenery in the distance, she couldn't help squinting her eyes comfortably. There is nothing more relaxing than good wine, food, and beautiful scenery.

As the sun set, it took a full afternoon before Caroline set off for Netherfield Gardens. At this time, the basket she was carrying in her hand was no longer food, but a big fat fish. It was her hard work for several hours. the results.

Walking on the grass in the countryside was leisurely and comfortable, so Caroline was not in a hurry, but this enjoyment was interrupted by the sound of horseshoes within a few minutes.

The voice came from the side, and it stopped after a while. Caroline turned her head and saw a tall and strong horse stopped not far away, and Darcy on the horse was staring at her with a dark face.

Caroline raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why are you here?"

Why is he here?She had the nerve to ask him how he came.

Thinking that he didn't see her when he came back from Meryton today, and hearing that she had been out for more than four hours, Darcy felt anxious and angry.

Ever since Caroline passed through the affairs with those families in London, Darcy has been worried about her safety, and today she has been out for so long without bringing anyone with her!

"Do you know how long you have been out?!" Darcy asked sullenly.

"One afternoon", Caroline's eyes lingered on the horse Darcy was riding. It was tall, strong, and vigorous. It was a fine horse. She glanced down at the basket and fishing rod in her hand. Lorraine was about to speak, but she heard Darcy say angrily: "You still know that you have been out all afternoon, do you know that I have—" Darcy's expression froze suddenly.

How worried, Darcy suppressed and swallowed the remaining three words, but didn't say it, his face was extremely ugly.

"Huh?" Caroline looked away from the horse, raised her eyes and glanced at Darcy in doubt and asked, "What are you?"

Darcy pursed his lips, and instead of answering Caroline's words, he asked, "Why don't you ask people to follow you?"

"I'm just out for a walk, why should I ask someone to follow me? There's no danger in this countryside," Caroline said, rolling her eyes.

"How do you know there is no, and do you need an afternoon for your walk? You still ran so far!" At this moment, Darcy's breath was unsteady, panting slightly, he came out to look for more than half an hour before he came here After finding her, he was full of anger now, and his breath was a little unstable.

"I'm going back now, and I don't think it's too far away," Caroline said indifferently, and when she was done, she lifted the basket and fishing rod in her hand and fell under Darcy's gaze: "But since Now that you're here and you're still riding a horse, please help me take it back, it's tiring to carry it."

Darcy's veins were throbbing, he closed his eyes and suppressed the anger in his heart fiercely, took a deep breath, looked at the indifferent Caroline, and finally only glanced out two words: "Come up."

Looking at the hand stretched out in front of her, Caroline was a little surprised, but the emotion was only fleeting. Naturally, she would not miss the free mount, and she would not be thrown off the horse with Darcy around.

The basket and the fishing rod were all held by the left hand. Caroline put her right hand directly into Darcy's warm palm, and with a push and a pull, she sat on the horse.

Immediately, the field of vision widened a lot in an instant, and the breeze blew past, as if suspended in mid-air, which was a bit exciting.

Darcy looked at Caroline who was sitting in front of him, as if she was curled up in his arms, she was extraordinarily petite.All the anger turned into helplessness in an instant, and with a soft sigh, Darcy put his hands around her waist, and was about to pick up the rein, when he saw the basket and fishing rod in her arms.

Darcy frowned, he forgot to ask her to put these things on the horse.There is a saddle bag on the side right away, where you can put things.

Darcy bent down and was about to take the basket and fishing rod in her hand, but when he reached for the things, Caroline instinctively turned her head and asked him what was wrong.

The two were already very close, and when Caroline turned her head like this, Darcy's lips brushed against her upper lip lightly, like a breeze blowing on the face, light and soft.

Time stood still for an instant, Darcy lowered his eyes, and stared straight into Caroline's bright blue eyes, the heart in his chest was beating violently after the moment of stillness, "Bang bang bang", once It hit his mind.

Caroline was also a little dazed, Darcy's warm breath sprayed on her face, itchy and hot, with a trace of numbness and throbbing going straight into her heart, but this feeling came and went quickly, and it was still It disappeared without a response.

Caroline blinked her eyes, and two seconds later she tilted her head back decisively, and asked unkindly, "What's the matter with you?"

Darcy pursed his lips and looked away to hide his nervousness and embarrassment.

"The basket and fishing rod in your hand can be put on the horse." Darcy said lightly, his heart was extremely nervous, and his violent heartbeat continued. If you observe carefully, you will find a slight blush in his ears.But the look on his face was even more condensed.

Caroline frowned and glanced at the basket and fishing rod in her hand, then at Darcy, and handed the things to him decisively.

After Darcy put the things away, Caroline urged: "Okay, we should go, please let the horse run faster later."

Darcy looked down at Caroline's hair, gave a faint "hmm", wrapped her waist, held the rein in his hand, clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and drove the horse forward.

It wasn't until the horse ran fast and the cold wind hit his face that Darcy's heart calmed down a little. If it wasn't for Caroline's quick reaction just now, Darcy almost kissed him at that moment.Clenching the reins tightly, Darcy forced himself to focus on looking ahead, his legs pinched the horse's belly again, and the horse accelerated forward instantly.

The steed galloped, stepping on the grass and splashing mud, Darcy and Caroline rode towards Netherfield Garden, farther and farther away from the place just now.The setting sun in the sky was fiery red, shining on the two of them, casting long shadows on the undulating grass.
