Dear Mr. Darcy [Pride and Prejudice]
Chapter 26 Opera House
The memory ends.
Emma thought that she would never be able to maintain a friendly relationship with Mr. Darcy, but she didn't expect that when Mr. Darcy came to the door yesterday, he didn't look at her with the strange eyes she imagined, and sincerely said that it was himself who overreacted the day before yesterday. The problem.Then Emma also said that she was very rude in misleading people, and she would never do it again.She had expected Mr. Darcy to be pleased by it, but he was not at all.What, therefore, Mr. Darcy was thinking, was really quite elusive.
Seeing that Emma didn't want to talk, Georgiana considerately didn't ask, and patted her on the back comfortingly.
Emma was healed, she let go of her entanglement, and invited: "Aunt, Uncle, Alvin and I will go to the opera tonight, do you want to go together?"
Georgiana suddenly discovered another solution to the problem. If Emma and Alvin were married, her brother would probably not be trapped in this relationship again.After all, marriages are concluded under the witness of God, and there are very few divorces.Instead of convincing the stubborn brother, it is better to let him give up.Seeing the dawn of a solution to the problem, Georgiana let go of her worries for the past few days, and happily nodded in agreement. "Great, I'll go back and change my clothes to get ready."
Just after afternoon tea, the Ashleys came to the door.George went out today, and they arrived before Alvin to prevent the unmarried couple from staying alone in the apartment.
Because she was going to the opera, Mrs. Ashley dressed very formally. The hair on her hat was half a meter long. When she saw Emma, she held her hand affectionately. "Honey, long time no see. You are a little taller. You must look good in a long skirt when you go to the opera."
Emma and Mrs. Ashley have very different standards for judging beauty. In order to prevent my dear aunt from constantly lamenting the aesthetics of young ladies on the way to the theater and on the way back, Emma gritted her teeth and decided to let Mrs. Ashley be her Costume staff tonight. "I brought a few long skirts, all kinds of styles, we can go upstairs and choose slowly."
Mr. Ashley had always agreed unconditionally with his wife's opinions on dress. "Ladies please, I'll read the newspaper on the sofa for a while."
Emma felt that her whole being was going to be bad.Mrs. Ashley said that her waist is very slender, because she didn't wear a suitable corset to show her beautiful lines, so she asked the maid to strangle her desperately.Emma held the bedpost and took a deep breath. She felt that she and Mrs. Ashley also had a very different understanding of the word appropriate. Mrs. Ashley's appropriateness seemed to be that she could not be strangled_(:зゝ∠)_
After finally putting on the tights, Mrs. Ashley asked Emma to change into long skirts, hats, and accessories.Emma was almost moved to tears when the servant said that Georgiana and Irwin had arrived. "Aunt, they are here, let's choose here."
Mrs. Ashley was not too satisfied, but it was just that Irwin came and Georgiana came to the door. Of course, she couldn't let Emma stay upstairs and continue to choose clothes while the guests were still downstairs. "You invited Georgiana?"
"Yes." Emma clicked 32 likes for her choice of inviting the little angel. "Georgianna came to see me in the morning. There is no dance these days, and she is bored at home all day, so I invited her to come with me."
Mrs. Ashley sighed somewhat resentfully.Generally speaking, in this age, people don't get engaged first, and then they don't get married for a long time.Alvin went to the battlefield after Emma got engaged at first, and not many people knew about this engagement.But now everyone knows that Emma has a fiancé, but they have not married for a long time, which makes Mrs. Ashley a little anxious.Although she still doesn't want Emma to marry an officer, everyone knows about the engagement, and Mrs. Ashley thinks that Alvin is really good after getting along.There was no elder to worry about Emma now, and George had never been very careful.Mrs. Ashley felt her time had come.Today's repertoire of the opera house is not very classic, but the ending is that lovers will get married. She wants to remind the two young people.Unexpectedly, Emma didn't seem to have this awareness at all, and even called Georgiana.
Emma really didn't have this awareness.In her feeling, she and Alvin are boyfriend and girlfriend, and it is normal to have a relationship for a few years.Now she and Erwin are getting along well. After observing for this period of time, she is sure that Erwin really suits her in all aspects, and the two of them have a good impression of each other.In her plan, the most critical step is about to take place now, to see if Alvin can accept her going into business after marriage in the future.If possible, she will find a way to increase the time they spend together, and get married when the relationship reaches a certain level.
Alvin didn't wear a military uniform today, he was dressed in a standard gentleman's attire.But from his straight sitting posture and sharp eyes, it can still be seen that he is different from ordinary gentlemen.Mr. Ashley had a few words with him, and his expression softened slightly.Following his gaze and turning his head to look, Emma's long skirt was dragging the floor, and she was walking down the stairs gracefully.
Mr. Ashley smiled understandingly. "Go."
Alvin stood up a little awkwardly and took two steps towards the stairs, staring at Emma who smiled at him.Emma wore a long lake green dress, the waist was covered with complicated dark green embroidery, like a belt decorated with vines, and the wide skirt had a long and gorgeous skirt, like blooming flowers, which made her look even more beautiful. The waist is slender.
Emma felt very fresh about Alvin's clothes today, and kept looking at him.
Alvin was a little embarrassed by her sizing up, but he couldn't tell her not to look, the muscles all over his body were tense.
Emma just liked his innocent appearance, and when Mrs. Ashley walked over to talk to Georgiana, she smiled and whispered: "Long time no see, this outfit suits you very well."
Although Alvin was very embarrassed, he could still feel that he had been robbed of his lines, and said dryly: "You too, I mean, very beautiful." It turned out that no one in the army knew that he had a fiancée. Last year Emma began to give He wrote letters and sent some very warm vests that could be worn under military uniforms in winter, socks and some medicine for frostbite.Now everyone around knew that he had a considerate fiancée.A friend suggested to him to recite some sonnets, saying that the ladies liked it very much.He was indeed ready, but for some reason he could not speak when he saw Emma.
Emma didn't want to have a long whisper with Alvin here, so she put her hand in Alvin's palm with a smile, and walked into the living room with him. "I'm glad you like it."
In the evening, a group of five came to the Covent Garden Theatre.
Emma was very careful when she got out of the car, because Mrs. Ashley also chose a very gorgeous hat for her. She was very close to Alvin.
Emma had also heard opera before time travel, but those opera houses were completely incomparable with the Covent Garden Theatre.The high dome is resplendent and magnificent, and the upper floor is arranged in an arc with three floors of boxes.The young lady in a gorgeous dress held a fan in one hand and a male companion in a suit and leather shoes in the other, walking in calmly.At this time, the stage has not yet started, and the stage is covered by a heavy curtain.
The plot of today's drama is relatively simple. It is a love story. After going through twists and turns, the lovers finally get married.But the level of actors is pretty good.After the curtain fell, there was a wave of applause.
After leaving the theater, Georgiana's eyes were still shining with excitement, and she pulled Emma to discuss the choice of heroine. "Sweet words are often untrustworthy. Fortunately, she saw through the trap cleverly and did not pay for love by mistake."
A sharp female voice came. "You have to be very cautious when you give love. Why do you think ladies choose to marry soldiers? They have no land, no titles, and no rich property. They have a rude temper and scars. After marriage, ladies have to say goodbye to the upper class." gone."
Emma heard the sound and looked, and felt that the lady's voice and face were a bit familiar, oh, she remembered, isn't this Miss Kate from the coffee shop?Emma smiled slightly at her: "Thank you for your concern, but I am the lady of the Earl of Kentra, and this honorable surname will accompany me for the rest of my life. The choice I make is probably not for anyone who tries to enter the upper class. Understood. Are you engaged to that Mr. Rawls?"
Emma just hit Miss Kate where it hurts.Miss Kate used to be a lady of the baron's family, but unfortunately her father died, the baron is not hereditary, and the family property is not much, she wanted to marry the rich Mr. Darcy, but something happened to Mr. Darcy.She made the second best choice and chose Cousin Rawls, who has a title but poor property management and a less affluent life. Unexpectedly, Mr. Rawls would rather marry Miss Daisy, the daughter of the nouveau riche, with a generous dowry than her. , the other options are even worse.Miss Kate flushed. "I didn't talk to you at all, how could you just sneer at me!"
Emma was about to make another cut when her eyes suddenly stopped on a man.He was tall and expressionless, and the farce did not attract his attention, so he walked over without turning his eyes.Speaking of Emma and his blood relationship, but he can no longer be called Mr. Kentra, people generally call him: the notorious illegitimate son Kentra family traitor Whig Officer Brown.This string perfectly introduces his experience in the first half of his life.His mother is a maid in the Kentra family. Although I don't know how Emma's grandfather treated their mother and child back then, I think it is not friendly enough.Because he joined the army after graduation.Relying on the military exploits of countering the rebellion, he quickly became a leader.And just when Emma's grandfather felt that the illegitimate child was very upstanding, he resolutely joined the Whig camp and named his mother, the humble maid's surname—Brown.As far as personal feelings are concerned, Emma admires this uncle very much, but unfortunately, his relationship with old Mr. Kentra is not very good, and he did not appear at his funeral.Or the last time I came to London with George, I just ran into him once.If she remembered correctly, it was not unusual for a Tory Earl to have just emerged from the same box as Mr. Browne.
After finishing her series of counterattacks, Miss Kate left angrily.Emma secretly remembered Mr. Brown's matter, and decided to go back and tell George to pay attention.He took two steps outside but found that Erwin hadn't followed.Emma turned her head in surprise. "Alvin?"
Alvin was still standing there, seemingly thinking about something.
Emma thought that Miss Kate's words had hurt Alvin, so she quickly comforted him: "I had some conflicts with that lady, and she belittled the soldiers in order to attack me. Please don't take these words to heart, we all know her That's not fair."
And Aunt Ashley said, "I never saw such a mean lady, and she's so ill-bred to talk such nonsense."
Some words are inconvenient to say on this occasion, Alvin nodded in front of the two ladies comforting him. "I didn't take these words to heart." Alvin didn't care about those derogatory remarks about soldiers, but there was a sentence from Miss Kate that he couldn't let go of.Why do ladies choose to marry soldiers?He really has no land, title and rich property. Why did the old Earl of Kentra choose to marry Emma to him, and Emma agreed?
The author has something to say: First of all, I would like to thank Little Angel Zi Xiaoxue for mine~
Georgiana only thought that Emma and Irwin would marry her brother and her brother would give up. Why didn't she think about how much Emma and Irwin would be hit by her brother?Is it my own sister after all, so I believe her brother can survive
In this case, the hero and heroine estimate that HE is hopeless, so I decided to send my fiancé away first
