Dear Mr. Darcy [Pride and Prejudice]

Chapter 7 Impromptu Speeches

Time went back to the morning after Emma answered the police officer's question.Emma sat in front of the mirror, stroked her chilly chest, and asked Lisa to find a bow for her to decorate her neck.Emma chose a dark green dress today without too many lace decorations, and Lisa brought an apple green bow to match.As soon as she saw the bow tie she was holding, Emma's eyes were fixed on it, the circles of her eyes gradually turned red, and she reached out to gently stroke the bow tie.Yes, I am a person with a story, this bow is also a bow with a story, come and ask me = ̄ω ̄=

"Miss, are you okay?" A sentimental noble lady, like a weak lily.Lisa curled her lips inwardly.She is very respectful to Emma, ​​because Emma has her handle, but she is not actually afraid of Emma.Although she was frightened by the ghostly Emma under the dim candlelight at that time, she thought about it later, if Emma was really so smart, why didn't she notice the actions of Clark, Lena, Mrs. Charlie and others before?The sharp-eyed Mr. Darcy probably suggested the search of her home.

Emma looked up at the window at a 15-degree angle to recall the shape. "Four years ago in London, I went out to choose clothes," she stroked the bow, "apple green was popular that year. On the way back, it was raining heavily, the carriage suddenly broke down and I could only walk, and I started to have a fever when I returned to my residence. If it wasn't Lena ran out in the rain to get a doctor for me, and I might get pneumonia. Because the diagnosis and treatment were timely, I was fine, but Lena herself fell ill.” Of course she made this up, she improvised it in college Speech Champion<( ̄ˇ ̄)/#On How to Make a Touching Story from an Apple Green Bowknot#

Lisa secretly hated herself for picking up this apple-green bow, and said tentatively, "But she made you drink poisoned wine..."

Emma shook her head: "Lena didn't get the poppy powder. Maybe Mrs. Charlie told her that this wine can help her sleep, but she didn't know it. We should remember the favor."

Lisa seemed to think of something and fell silent.

"So Lisa reported to you that Lena has a distant uncle who is a pharmacist, and Lena said that Lisa stole my things to sell and was an accomplice in poisoning? So does Lena have evidence?"

"Yes." The young police officer was a little embarrassed in front of Emma, ​​and straightened his waist even more. "She said she knew whom Miss Carter sold things to every time she went. The ten pounds should still be at Miss Carter's."

Seeing Lisa's pleading eyes, Emma sighed. "I want to talk to Lisa first, can I?"

"Yes, of course." The servant stole the master's belongings, and if the master didn't want to pursue it, he didn't have to go to court.

As soon as the police officer left, Lisa rushed up crying. "Miss, I'm sorry! My father is an alcoholic. He takes away most of my wages every month. I can't support my brother. I'm sorry!"

Nozuonodiewhyyoutry. Emma looked at the weeping Lisa.She could probably guess that Lena knew about Lisa's theft, and she might have threatened Lisa with this.Of course, she deliberately said those words not to let Lena go, but just to see what kind of person Lisa is.If Lisa feels that Emma is a tolerant master and makes her feel at ease, and is more soft-hearted, she may tell Emma about Lena's distant uncle, or do nothing.As it turned out, Lisa felt that Emma was a weak master, and wanted to put Lena to death to get rid of the trouble once and for all.Lisa thought that since Mr. Darcy had sent someone to her house, the ten pounds and past theft would not be detected by the police, but she didn't expect Lena to have a back trick.

"Miss..." Lisa panicked when she saw that Emma seemed indifferent. "I also reported that bitch so that you would not be deceived. I am willing to continue to resolutely report Clark to prove that the young master is not the murderer."

Emma smiled.Lisa still works.She just wanted to know as soon as possible whether Lisa might become a hidden danger in the future, so as to take protective measures. "Since it is forced by life, I will tell the police officer not to pursue it."

"Thank you miss, thank you for your tolerance." If it is successfully proved that Clark is the murderer, only the tolerant lady and the stupid new earl will be left in the Kentra family.Lisa couldn't help showing a smile, she will definitely work hard.

A brand new day.Emma was rolling on the bed with the quilt in her arms, feeling quite good.After a brief wash, he walked down the stairs lightly.

"Oh, my poor little Emma." A black shadow rolled over like a whirlwind. Before Emma could react, her waist tightened, she couldn't stand firmly and fell into a warm embrace. "My God, I can't believe it, how the hell have you been here these two days. Look at your waist, it's thin... thick?" Of course, the corset thing, Emma Instead of grabbing the bedpost and being strangled by the servants, she was wearing a corset in the largest size of the original Miss Kentra. She felt that her heart would jump out of her mouth at the slightest movement.

The lady soon found a reason for Emma. "It must be because I was afraid of passing out and didn't dare to tie my waist. You are right, my child. I passed out when I heard it..."

Oh no!Emma had imagined many ways of meeting, and this was the last thing she wanted to see.Although her aunt had always been enthusiastic, she had never had such a blowout as today. "Auntie, auntie, I..." Emma tried to stop the other party's chattering while the other party was speaking. Although it was warm, it made her a little bit endless.

Mrs. Ashley wiped away her tears and continued: "Your brother, I know him and watched him grow up. Although he has grown into a little bastard, it is absolutely impossible for him to do that kind of thing. Both you and him I was wronged. Although Mr. Darcy is an upright gentleman, and I am very grateful for his help to you, how can you not have a reliable female elder by your side at this time?"

Emma looked around in embarrassment, trying to find someone who could help him, but the tall and thin uncle silently avoided Emma's sight of asking for help.Why don't you look at me!Stop your wife now!Emma cried out silently in her heart.Then she saw someone who was just as embarrassed as she was.

"Uh." Emma put a little force on Mrs. Ashley's shoulder. "Hi, Georgiana."

Mrs. Ashley stopped at last. "My God, it's Miss Darcy. Why didn't the servant communicate."

Emma coughed lightly and explained: "Georgianna was afraid that I would be lonely, so she stayed with me for two days and stayed in the manor last night, so..." Originally, Georgiana just came to visit.After chatting, it was discovered that both of them liked to read books. Georgiana played the piano well, and Emma played the piano well after inheriting the memory of the original owner.There are many common topics.Unknowingly, they chatted until it was getting late, so they simply let Georgiana stay.

"Miss Darcy is very kind. You and your brother have been the most honest and unselfish people I have ever met in your generous assistance to little Emma and George in their distress."

Georgiana blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment. "My brother and I dare not accept your praise. Mr. Kentra and his father are close friends, and we just did what we should do."

Emma, ​​not taking part in their conversation, turned to greet Mr. Ashley.Recalling that their information was limited to the content of the letter two days ago, Emma introduced: "Yesterday, the coroner's examination results came out, and no problems were found. So based on the time of death, my brother is very suspicious. Clark I was with Judge Wilson at the time, and I have an alibi. Now the police officer still does not allow people to visit my brother, do you want to see the police officer?"

"Yes." Mr. Ashley nodded. "I'll go now."

"Then I'll ask the servant to tidy up the room for you and your aunt."

"No, dear." Although Mrs. Ashley spoke to Georgiana, she did not ignore the conversation here. "The situation in Swan Manor is complicated and not suitable for recuperation. I want to take you home to live for a while. Your uncle will stay to investigate this matter."

Emma would never have liked it. "But my brother is still here, I want to accompany my brother."

"Silly boy," sighed Mrs. Ashley.

Georgiana timidly said: "My brother and I would like to invite your wife and Emma to visit Pemberley. The environment in Pemberley is very good, and it is very close to Swan Manor. If the police officer allows it, it will be convenient for Emma to come back to see her brother."

The author has something to say: Emma: I am a champion of impromptu speaking!
