[Pride and Prejudice] My husband loves me again

Dr. Brown was obviously surprised, but he restrained himself from showing it.

Instead, he joked to himself: "It turns out that I am so famous as a doctor, and Mrs. Darcy recognizes me."

Darcy put a pillow behind Elizabeth, helped her sit up, and said what Dr. Brown said: "Of course my wife may know you. Everyone in London knows you. You, the royal doctor But the Regent's guest," he then looked carefully at Elizabeth's face, and explained gently: "You fainted just now, my dear, and because the smelling salts didn't work, I invited Dr. Brown."

Now Elizabeth is sure that she is really back.

"What's the matter with me?" Elizabeth asked hoarsely. She thought it was ridiculous to return to real life, which made her feel awkward and at a loss. Fortunately, Darcy's existence stabilized her heart.

"It's nothing serious, my dear," Darcy and Dr. Brown glanced at each other, and then Darcy took water to moisten Elizabeth's throat, and explained: "Maybe Mrs. Wickham's arrival has put too much mental pressure on you." Now, I have written to Mrs. Collins, hoping that she can come to stay for a while. On the one hand, I can accompany you. You haven’t seen each other for a long time; on the other hand, she is a smart person. I hope she can help you. I really don’t I hope you are too tired."

Mary is not a smart person, how could Darcy invite her... Elizabeth belatedly remembered that Mrs. Collins was not Mary, but Charlotte.

She subconsciously glanced at Dr. Brown.

Dr. Brown felt that the way Mrs. Darcy looked at him always made him feel uncomfortable, but the other party obviously had no malicious intentions, so he packed up his medical box and planned to leave: "It's very common for women to faint, so don't worry too much. The tights The drawstring is too tight, the savage dance spins too fast, the man you like proposes to the lady or the man you like proposes to another lady, all of which will lead to fainting. Just don’t restrict your diet for the waist, and walk more outdoors. It won't be so easy to pass out."

This kind of ironic doctor's order is a characteristic of Dr. Brown, but he is young and proud, and does not need to carefully serve the patients, so what he said is not so pleasant.

If Charlotte had been there, he would have given up his habit of speaking so badly; Charlotte was a good housewife, and they got on so well together.Elizabeth hurriedly stopped herself, there was no benefit in substituting things that would not happen into reality, it was unfair to everyone, and she deeply buried the regret that she had nowhere to say.

Outside the door, Dr. Brown asked Darcy to stay, but he also asked: "My vacation this time is half a month long. I will return to Pemberley after visiting the scenery of Derbyshire in a week, and then return to London. At that time In addition to saying goodbye to you, I can give Mrs. Darcy another diagnosis, and maybe next time I will be able to diagnose it."

There was a trace of unconcealable excitement on Darcy's face, but he felt that it was enough for him to worry about it alone, and he didn't need to let Elizabeth know about it, so he became more gentle and considerate during this period. The infection dissipated, and when I looked back after a few days, I gradually felt that everything was just a dream.

However, after all, she has seen the world 200 years later, which is not something a housewife with limited knowledge can imagine.

After all, everything happened, but it is another story.

Lydia knew that Elizabeth had fainted and was forbidden to visit by Darcy, and probably knew that the matter was more or less related to her, so she took her three children and lived in Pemberley without any sense of existence. She was so old that you wouldn't feel bored, she didn't make trouble anymore, and as long as Wickham didn't come back, she had to live on her sister's family.

After Mrs. Bennet learned that Lydia lived in Pemberley, she temporarily gave up her plan to go to Pemberley for a short stay so that she could brag to her old neighbors when she came back.It was her life's purpose to marry off all her daughters, and now the only flaw in that wish was Mary, but that didn't matter, it was generally accomplished, and two of the daughters were beyond the plan.Among them, her favorite is Lydia, even if her marriage is not satisfactory, but which woman doesn't come here like this?But Mrs. Bennet has raised five daughters by herself, and she no longer intends to deal with the children for the rest of her life, even if it is Lydia's children, she will not help, so she gave up going to Pemberley after careful consideration. Intend.

Both Darcy and Elizabeth heaved a sigh of relief.

A week later, Dr. Brown came back as scheduled. In addition to seeing Elizabeth again, he also came to say goodbye.

"As you wish, it's good news, Mr. Darcy, Mrs. Darcy," he put down the small brass stethoscope, and shook hands with Darcy solemnly. Elizabeth, who didn't know why, looked at the two men so solemnly I found it ridiculous, and then Dr. Brown officially announced the good news: "Mrs. Darcy, you are pregnant."

what? !

Because of the great joy, Elizabeth's whole head was blown blank, and she didn't even know how to react, so she had to let Darcy hug her and accept the blessings from the people around her.Reason told her that since Dr. Brown was able to confirm the pregnancy, it may have been one or two months, but she seemed to feel that the arrival of this child seemed to have something to do with that wedding night.

Would this Mr. Darcy be jealous of that Mr. Darcy if he knew?

Elizabeth laughed.

Charlotte arrived just at this time, and although Dr. Brown was about to leave, Darcy dutifully introduced them to them. Charlotte was so clever, and she immediately asked Elizabeth: "You have always been in good health. Doctor?" As she spoke, her eyes fell on Elizabeth's abdomen: "Could it be..."

Before Elizabeth could speak, Mr. Darcy confirmed the good news for Charlotte.

Dr. Brown looked at Charlotte a few more times. This Mrs. Collins was much smarter than many women he had seen. It was rare for her to be genuinely happy for her friend, yet she behaved calmly and appropriately, which made people feel happy. I couldn't help feeling fond of her, and even downplayed her unremarkable appearance.Given my current status with the Prince Regent and the popularity I receive in London, how happy would it be to have such a good wife?

Thinking of the ladies he met at the ball recently, Dr. Brown only felt more and more boring.

This Mrs. Collins's behavior, speech and actions seemed to provide Dr. Brown with a model of what kind of woman he should be looking for.

While Elizabeth was speaking, she also faintly felt that Charlotte was absent-minded, which had never happened before.

But she doesn't need to take it to heart, even if it is a momentary favor, Dr. Brown will return to London, and Charlotte will inevitably continue to be her Mrs. Collins. After a short encounter, it is just ripples on the river and returns to calm .

Charlotte had a son within the first year of their marriage, and Elizabeth was very skeptical that she and Collins had any intimacy thereafter.Charlotte doesn't seem to care at all, but Collins is a sanctimonious clergyman, he will not take the initiative to ask his wife, and he is completely unattractive to women outside of marriage, so he unexpectedly reached Charlotte's wish for marriage. All basic requirements.

Source of life, offspring, loyalty, everything is there, except love.

In Charlotte's eyes, love is not a necessity of life.

After Dr. Brown left, she quickly put this encounter behind her. This extremely sensible style made Elizabeth not need to worry about her.Then the two went to see Lydia again. Charlotte skillfully prevented the naughtiest of the three children from climbing on Elizabeth, and warned Lydia very skillfully that if she didn't take good care of the child, Mr. Darcy would kill her. Maybe invite them to some cottage somewhere else.

Lydia coaxed the children to take a nap.

"Boys are so naughty," Elizabeth held her chin and imagined, "How well-behaved my daughter is."

Charlotte received hints from Elizabeth that she knew that her friend was kind. Although she hated Collins, she did not hate children. It was just that after giving birth to a child, she found that she had to be more psychologically prepared to have a baby. The second one, and based on the appearance of her and Collins, she is really afraid that her daughter will be difficult to marry in the future: "Liz, having a child is not a matter of one person, if Mr. Collins can stop going to Rosings Manor all the time and stay at home more Hang on, maybe we'll have a second baby."

"Did he go so diligently?" Elizabeth was a little confused: "The duchess may not welcome him very much. Speaking of it, for about two or three months, the duchess did not send a letter saying that she would come to visit. She would come at this time in previous years. Hold on for a while."

Charlotte fiddled with the vase and said, "She probably didn't want others to know that Miss Anne's health has been in constant condition since this year. It's not a serious problem, but it's always worrying. It's rumored in London that His Majesty George III is going to die soon." No, after the regent ascends the throne, he might give Miss Anne the title of Duchess, and the Duchess has to keep it a secret. Let me tell you, if the Princess of Wales hadn’t died, Miss Anne’s chances of getting the title would be even greater. But it is so dangerous for a woman to give birth to a child, and the princess is no exception."

Elizabeth didn't answer. In another world, everything seemed much better, which brought her so much regret in this world.

Bigger regrets ensued.

On the third day Charlotte stayed at Pemberley Manor, a letter from Collins arrived, saying that Miss Anne was probably not well, and hoped that she would return to Kent as soon as possible to take care of some affairs.

She immediately told the Darcys the news, and Darcy sent for Dr. Brown, who did not even take half a day to get to Rosings from London.

But before they left, the Duchess' funeral letter came. Although everyone always felt that it was God's mercy that Miss Anne could live to be 30 years old, when she really died, it seemed that she could not believe that she was walking behind her. before mother.

The Duchess refused to attend the funeral and shut herself in the house.

Elizabeth wanted to persuade her.

"You don't have to persuade me, Liz," said the old woman, whose hair was all white, "I've always known about Anne's physical condition, and this day will always come. I refused to attend the funeral not because I cried to the point of heartbreak, but because Because I have no face to face my daughter."

Elizabeth noticed that the Duchess had a thin, gold-covered book in her hand, and sensing that Elizabeth had discovered it, the Duchess handed it to her.

After skimming through a few pages, Elizabeth realized that she seemed to have discovered what error 404 was.
