Mrs. Darcy's daily life

The rain outside the window was still pattering, and the fog covered the windows, making it difficult to see the scenery outside.The flowing river in front of the building is even denser, and the fog covers its whole picture.

"Now that the autumn harvest is over, I'm going to hold a hunting party at Pemberley Manor." Caroline sat behind a small table, holding a pen in her hand, resting her chin on her left hand and looking at Da who was sitting on the sofa reading a book. West said.

"Hunting?" Darcy put down the book and looked at Caroline suspiciously.

"Well, it is a big party to invite the neighbors to hunt at Pemberley Manor. The men participate in the hunting activities and set a ranking. The number and quality of the animals obtained in the hunting are used as the reference standard. The top three The winners can get the corresponding medals and rewards." Speaking of this, Caroline immediately became interested: "I want to develop this into a special event in the future of Pemberley Manor, which will be held in autumn every year or every two years, and the men For the hunted prey, people with good cooking skills in the village or town are invited to cook, and a cooking competition will be held, and the most delicious food will be selected at the end, and the corresponding ranking rewards will be distributed to these contestants in turn. As for the men’s Who cooks the prey, that is, let them choose the cooking staff, how about it? I believe that after the reputation of this event spreads, there will be more excellent chefs to participate in this event.”

It is not a big expense for the Darcy family to hold such an event. They just provide the venue, the ingredients, and the final reward. The layout and final ending of the event will definitely require a lot of manpower to arrange and clean up.

However, if this event is successfully held and becomes a traditional event of Pemberley Manor, it will definitely be of great benefit when it becomes famous in the future. This will not only make more people from different places, but also drive the income of the villagers in the village And the standard of living, they can provide those people with accommodation, food, etc., so as to increase income.Just like the tourism industry in later generations, the economy of this place will develop greatly over time.But Caroline didn't want to develop her manor into a tourist area.

"Oh! Of course, it's too early to say this. Just hold a hunting party this year. As for the last prey, let's hand it over to the kitchen of Pemberley Manor. But we can have an open-air barbecue, and we can also invite them this year. Some people from the village came to help, and finally gave them a certain amount of rewards, and by the way, promoted this gourmet cooking competition to them, and invited them to participate in the next season."

Darcy glanced at Caroline rather speechlessly. In fact, the cooking competition is her real goal.

"And what about the ladies, what do they do?"

"I'll let people set up a tent on the grass outside the building, and put out all kinds of food, snacks and drinks for the ladies to help themselves, so that they can have a party and chat while waiting for the men to return. And then a cooking competition will be held, Ladies are the best judges, we will select the most delicious food, but men can also participate in the selection. I have already asked some people for their opinions on the hunting party at the last dance, and they agree and look forward to it very much, especially Mr. Brown, Mr. Johnson and Black are most interested in them, so I plan to hold it in two weeks."

When Darcy heard that he might be the last person to hear about the plan, his expression turned ugly, especially because there was Colonel Black in it.

"Why do we have to hold it in two weeks? We can prepare for a little longer, and it can be held before winter." It's not too late to hold it after Colonel Black leaves for London. Anyway, they have already discussed this year at Pemberley Manor It's Christmas.

"Because Blake had already left Derbyshire at that time, he was very interested in this hunting meeting. Of course, he had to invite people to participate, and it would be too cold to hold it before winter, and it would definitely not be possible to hold an open-air barbecue at that time. , ladies can only stay indoors."

……

Darcy's breath was stuck in his chest and he was extremely uncomfortable. He originally thought that it would not be too late to hold the event after Colonel Black left. As a result, Caroline specially arranged the time for Colonel Black to participate. weeks later.

Holding the book in his hand, it took Darcy a long time to catch the words "you decide".

It rained all day today, and Caroline had to sit inside and get moldy.

"Do you have anything to say to Georgiana? I can write it in a letter for you." Darcy raised his head and asked Caroline, who was sitting aside.

"No, I've already written it, and you can send it out for me when the time comes," Caroline said sleepily with drooping eyelids, "Okay, I'm going back to sleep, and you should go to bed early too." ,Good night."

Before taking two steps, Darcy immediately stood up, walked to her side, held her hand and said, "Then I'll go back to rest with you, as I just finished writing the letter."

"Fitzwilliam, I actually think—"

"Impossible", Darcy decisively vetoed Caroline's words, he knew what she was going to say, she just wanted him to go back to his room, how could he go back to his room now.

"What about your room, are you planning to use it as a decoration?"

"A decoration?" Darcy glanced at Caroline, then turned back and led her to the stairs, and finally said lightly: "This word describes it well, then let it be a decoration from now on."

Caroline: ...

in the room

After tidying up, Caroline glanced at Darcy who was sitting on the bedside reading a book, and yawned silently. Now her eyes drooped, she walked to the edge of the bed and climbed onto the bed. She just lay down after throwing off the quilt. The figure covered it, and Caroline immediately pulled the quilt decisively sideways.

Looking at Caroline with his back turned to him, Darcy couldn't laugh or cry, he just wanted to kiss her cheek goodnight.

Putting the book in his hand on the bedside table, bowing his head to blow out the candle, Darcy lay down, looked sideways at Caroline, who was facing away from him, leaned over, broke her waist with his hands, and hugged her in his arms .

"Good night," Darcy said softly, kissing Caroline's hair.

Caroline just responded vaguely, and it didn't take long for her consciousness to sink into darkness.

In the dark, Darcy showed a contented smile, closed his eyes and fell asleep quietly, a kind of warmth that has been quiet for years flowed silently between the two.

In fact, what makes Darcy most happy is that Caroline also has him in her heart. Otherwise, with her temperament, if she doesn't take him into her heart, no matter what he does, Caroline will not accept him.

The moonless sky looks dark and gloomy, but it is still easy to sleep.

On the second day, a ray of morning sun sprinkled on the earth, shining golden, adding gorgeous colors to the ink-colored picture scroll of Pemberley Manor, presenting it to the eyes, magnificent and majestic.

"Okay, I see, you go to reply to Mr. Murdoch, and I will host it then." After finishing speaking, Caroline turned to look at Darcy and said, "What did you just say?"

"I want to take you to the racecourse. The weather is nice today. I just go riding in the afternoon." Darcy repeated patiently. Just as he was talking with Caroline, Butler Sorel walked in with a letter. interrupted them.

Darcy's eyes fell on the letter, and he asked, "What's the matter?"

After Caroline raised her hand and put the last spoonful of vegetable soup into her mouth, she looked at Darcy and said, "Mr. Murdoch wants me to go to the church in the village to host a fundraiser. This year, the Parker family who lives in the west of the village The harvest was not very good, and the only young and middle-aged man in their family was injured in an accident this time. There are three children under the age of ten in their family. Mr. Murdoch considered that if they do not help them, it will be difficult for them to get through this winter."

Hearing this, Darcy frowned: "Then I will reduce the rent of their house for them this year. How long will this fundraising be held?"

"Tomorrow afternoon".

"Then I'll go with you."

Caroline nodded, put down the tableware, stood up and walked to the living room with Darcy.

She was not surprised by this fundraising activity in the village. The reason why the Darcy family has such a high reputation and status in Derbyshire is not only wealth and power, but also kindness and responsibility to the surrounding residents. In this situation, Caroline, as the hostess of the Darcy family, naturally has full authority to preside over the preparations.This was a tradition, and in the past when the Darcy family had no mistress, and when Darcy and Georgiana were not at Pemberley Manor, Mrs. Reynolds assisted Mr. Murdoch, the vicar of the church, to preside over the matter.

"You just said you were going to the racecourse in the afternoon?" In the living room, Caroline asked what Darcy had said earlier.

"Well," Darcy smiled and pulled Caroline to sit on the sofa and said, "Don't you like riding a horse? I'll take you there this afternoon."

"That's not riding a horse at the horse farm. The horse farm is too small. Go to the grazing grassland. I'll let the kitchen prepare some food by the way. It's just right to eat when you rest. By the way, let's ride your black thoroughbred horse." ", Xiao has thought about this horse for a long time. She couldn't ride it before, but now that Darcy is here, she will not be polite.

Seeing Caroline's eagerness to try and be happy, Darcy couldn't help but feel happy, picked up Caroline and hugged her on his lap, leaned forward and kissed the corner of her mouth and said with a smile: "Okay, everything Listen to you." Darcy put one hand around her waist, and stroked her hair with the other, the soft touch made him fondle admiringly.

Today, Caroline's hair was not tied into a bun, but a blue hairpin was left hanging behind her back. Her curly and smooth hair stretched all the way to her waist, echoing the long white dress on her body. A suffocating beauty.

Caroline tilted her head back slightly, put her hands on Darcy's shoulders, glanced at him, and said, "Fitzwilliam, please don't move your hands when you talk."

Darcy laughed instantly, reached out and took Caroline's hand off his shoulder, tightened the hand around her waist, and whispered with a smile: "Ma'am, I didn't move, I I'm just moving my mouth," and kissed Xiao Xiang's red lips as he spoke.A touch of tossing and turning, with indescribable tenderness and tenderness

Caroline: "...", how shameless.

In the afternoon, the weather was sunny, and Darcy took Caroline by the hand and led her for a walk to the stables of the racecourse.When passing by the backyard, a big hound suddenly rushed out, ran around Caroline and Darcy wagging its tail happily, and finally stopped and barked happily, and rubbed Darcy's leg.

Darcy bent down and patted its neck with a smile, causing it to wag its tail more frequently.

Caroline glanced at the ugly hound in front of her. Although it had smooth fur and a strong physique, it was still ugly in Caroline's eyes.This dog is Darcy's pet dog. Darcy will take it with him almost every time he hunts. It can be said that he still has a high status in Pemberley Manor. Just wait and let it play.But unfortunately, it met Caroline.

In the past, because it was Darcy's pet dog and was ugly and ugly, Caroline didn't like it very much. Every time it shook in front of her, she was upset, so she issued a ban, strictly forbidding it to go into the house again. , counting it, it probably hasn't wandered in the hall, living room, or study room of the mansion for a year.I don't know what Darcy thought, but he didn't refute Caroline's prohibition at that time.

Seeing this particularly excited hunting dog, Caroline said to the servant who approached from behind and usually took care of it: "Let it play in the house at ordinary times, don't restrict it." Although the dog is still ugly, but At least it doesn't make her so unhappy now.

The servant saluted and immediately agreed: "Okay, madam, I will do it."

Hearing this, Darcy looked at Caroline in surprise, then pursed his lips and smiled, took her hand and said, "Let's go, let's go to the stables now", patted the pet dog under his feet, and made a gesture Immediately, the Hound squatted down obediently, wagging its tail and watching Darcy and Caroline leave.

When they came to the racecourse again, Bruce, who greeted them this time, was no longer the person in charge of the entire racecourse, but became the deputy of the current person in charge of the racecourse. This made Caroline glance at Darcy suspiciously, and then looked at him again. To Bruce.

As if seeing Caroline's confusion, Bruce immediately explained: "Madam, I was responsible for the fact that you fell off the horse last time. I'm sorry."

"Okay, Bruce, go and bring my horse over," Darcy interrupted lightly.

"Okay, sir," said Bruce, and turned to the stables.

It turned out that Bruce was demoted by Darcy because of her riding a horse last time, Caroline thought, but this is normal, as the person in charge of the horse farm, not only enjoys a better commission and status, but also bears The responsibility is also the greatest. When she had an accident at the racecourse, he must be the person in charge who was held accountable first, although it was another person who taught Caroline how to ride a horse, and that person had probably been fired by Darcy.

"When did you drop Bruce's position, why didn't I know?"

"The day after you fell off the horse", Darcy looked at Caroline seriously and continued: "In the future, you are not allowed to ride a horse at the horse farm alone without me taking you, you know?" Last time it was her Fortunately, nothing happened. If the luck is not good, Darcy dare not think about the consequences. There are many people who have been thrown to death while riding a horse.

"I must be the one who wanted to ride, and Bruce didn't dare to let me ride anymore," Caroline shrugged.

Darcy stroked Caroline's hair and said with a smile: "That's true. If you want to ride a horse in the future, you can come and tell me, and I will take you to ride."

"Ok".

While the two were talking, Bruce came out leading a tall horse.

Darcy led the horse, and walked out of the stable side by side with Caroline.After leaving the stable, he got on the horse and stretched out his hand to pull Caroline up.

Sitting on the horse, his eyes swept across the plain in front of him, and the broad field of vision appeared again in an instant. The rolling grassland, green grass, stretched to the distance, until the sky, dotted with faint flocks of sheep and cattle, The grandeur is like a real prairie.

Caroline pointed forward, looked up at Darcy and suggested, "Let's go to the highest hillside."

Following Caroline's fingers, Darcy took a look, lowered his head and pecked Caroline's lips lightly, and said, "Okay."
