[Pride and Prejudice] My husband loves me again
Chapter 66 The Fiancée
Looking at the golden key, Elizabeth realized that Darcy's preparation for this moment to propose to herself was by no means a day or two.At least a month ago, that is, after the Netherfield Ball, he had the idea that the exquisite workmanship of this key must have been specially crafted by someone he sent to London.
It turned out that he had always wanted to propose marriage, but had to shelve it because of one thing or another.
Elisabeth's depressed mood before was swept away. Knowing that the person you love has the same troubles as yourself, this will make you more confident in solving the troubles, just because someone is standing side by side with you and going through it hand in hand.
"Mr. Darcy, I don't want to say polite words like 'it's too expensive for me to accept'." Elizabeth played with the golden key, which was only as wide as a woman's palm in length, and Elizabeth looked at Pemberley's large and heavy iron key Naturally, it is very familiar. It forms a bunch of other keys, large and small, and is kept in the hands of Mrs. Reynolds, the housekeeper's grandmother.Later, the most important ones, including the door key and storage room key, etc., were entrusted to Elizabeth. Because the door key was inconvenient to carry, it had been lying on the bottom of the dowry specially made by Darcy for Elizabeth.
This golden key also copied the family crest of the Darcy family on the original key, which was inlaid with tiny rubies as bright as pigeon blood. Elizabeth marveled at Darcy's delicate thoughts: "There is no woman who does not love jewelry." , especially as it is so light and lovely."
Darcy breathed a sigh of relief at this moment: "I hope you don't think I'm too stingy, because the key is hollow."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Facing the warm wind, he continued to move forward.
"So can I take it as if you have agreed to my unreasonable request? If the answer is yes, I am really grateful for your kindness," Darcy confirmed. Even though Elizabeth's attitude towards the key was very clear, Darcy Xi wanted to give a final answer: "Pemberley Manor is also in Derbyshire. Although it is some distance from Longbourn where your home is, it is not very far. It takes half a day to get there by carriage. Would you like to live with me in Pemberley?" go?"
"Of course I would, Mr. Darcy, if your carriage could go as fast as the Duchess's, but I think it would be better to simplify the interior and remove all the silver and felt, so that the horse would be less burdened." It's also faster." Elizabeth joked Darcy, who had long felt that Aunt Catherine made too much fuss about the arrangement of the carriage, only to hear Elizabeth say again: "If you are free, you can come back with me, I think We'll all miss this walk by the river."
Darcy didn't quite agree with Elizabeth's old-fashioned idea: "I thought we were not married yet, even if we got engaged, I still needed to see your father for approval. You just want to relive your old dreams, Miss Elizabeth, it's not like you're about to Be a bride-to-be."
Because I have been married to you for five years, Elizabeth thought happily, am I just reliving old dreams now? !
"It depends on what surprises are waiting for me at Pemberley Manor, so that I can temporarily forget the wilderness of Longbourne." Elizabeth's tone was full of yearning. Although Longbourne was the place where she grew up, she had long regarded Pemberley For her family, if she wants to say nostalgia, she misses Pemberley, who she started a family even more: "I heard that Pemberley Manor is so big that people say that you own half of Derbyshire, and part of the manor is open to people to visit. Ah, I It is entirely conceivable that decades later, the golden key will also lie in the most conspicuous place on display in the manor, and people in the manor will point to the golden key and tell visitors how the owner of the manor proposed to his future wife.”
"I decided not to." Darcy frowned. "Mrs. Reynolds watched me grow up, and she will definitely invent some plots to beautify the story of this marriage proposal. I can't imagine that the person in her mouth is me."
Oh, Mr. Darcy, you are much more emotional than you think. Only you think you are a rational man, and everyone has sharp eyes.
"Mrs. Reynolds?" Elizabeth naturally recognized her. Except for Wickham's flaw, Pemberley is a place where master and servant enjoy themselves. Needless to say, Darcy and his son are serious and fair people. Even Wickham's father is also a loyal servant, so he can get Such a privilege.Mrs. Reynolds was a bit older and a bit more verbose, but when Elizabeth first moved into Pemberley, she let the new wife quickly get started with the affairs of the manor with her decades of working experience.Not only that, Elizabeth also learned about the trajectory of Darcy's life in the first 20 years from her mouth, and she laughed like a trick: "I think I need to get to know Mrs. Reynolds well."
Darcy intends to bribe Elizabeth: "You can go out for two months in a year, you can choose from London's clothing and jewelry albums every month, and hold a dance every season. What do you think of these conditions?"
"It sounds very generous," Elizabeth pretended to think about it: "but none of these can stop my curiosity and prevent me from getting to know a Mr. Darcy that I have not known in the past 20 years. I want to know everything about you."
"You can ask me directly." It was the first time Darcy heard Elizabeth express her heart, about her love for herself, these days' worrying about gains and losses seemed to be filled instantly, like a river on a plateau, It's milk and honey, sweet to the bone, and Mr. Darcy laughed unknowingly: "If you ask me directly, I promise to know everything, but in exchange, I also want to know more about you. Elizabeth."
He called her by her name directly, even omitting the word Miss, which was a more intimate address that both parties could realize.Elizabeth found that they did not know when they had stopped, Darcy's face was very close to her, and the warm breath had already brushed Elizabeth's cheek.
In fact, his addiction to smoking is not very heavy. He only lights a cigar when he is talking about important matters or worries with others, and he rarely smokes cigarettes, so he will not cause trouble to others.The only person who bothered was Elizabeth. If she tasted it with her own mouth, she would taste a slightly tobacco-scented bitterness from Darcy's mouth.
However, because of Darcy, Elizabeth also contracted an inexplicable addiction to cigarettes called Darcy. Elizabeth thought that she was simply a symptom of poisoning.
It is not known if Dr. Brown has a prescription for her symptoms.
She guessed there shouldn't be, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people dying of love because of love in the world.
Mr. Darcy was also terminally ill, and that was why he was nervous, and had been relieved with tobacco before going out.
It was also because of nervousness that after the two of them chattered so much, he realized that there should be a kiss here.
Elizabeth really wanted to tell him shamelessly: dear Mr. Darcy, you have missed many opportunities!
Elizabeth stood upright, sideways so that Darcy could shield her, with a tree behind her, so that if anyone passed by they would not see them as two people.Darcy gently touched her cheek with his lips in this posture, and Elizabeth trembled slightly, feeling that the cheek touched by his lips was almost on fire. Even if she couldn't see it, she knew that the blush had spread rapidly .Darcy stopped Elizabeth from subconsciously trying to flee shyly, grabbed her wrist firmly, and pressed her into his arms.
His lips started chasing the next target, and he really wanted to kiss that delicate red earlobe, but it was too private to do so until after marriage, he thought rationally.
But his sanity stopped there, and he couldn't stop him from exploring other goals.
Elizabeth's waist touched his tight thighs, and the man's body temperature was astonishingly hot.
She closed her eyes quietly and resignedly.
But in my heart, it felt like a group of little people were dancing break dance, singing while dancing: "Pian Dong! Bi Dong! Bi Dong!"
Elizabeth thought vaguely, people will be really talented after 200 years!
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Bennet's continuous screams broke the tranquility and sweetness of this side. Darcy cursed something annoyed, and pushed Elizabeth in his arms to the other side of the tree trunk. When Mrs. Bennet approached, The two appear to be talking through the tree.
Elizabeth held the golden key and didn't know where to hide it. Because she was not far from home when going out for a walk, she didn't bring a handbag with her. In desperation, she stuffed this small key into her tights.
As soon as he looked up, he met Darcy's focused gaze again.
"Very clever, Miss Elizabeth." He remarked triumphantly: "It seems that you really treasure this key."
But his triumph did not last long, and Mrs. Bennet seemed to be his natural enemy.
"Liz! Liz! My Liz! Your father is too much," Mrs. Bennet panted, and her fat chest trembled wildly all the way. Lydia was the only sister who inherited this trait. Pulling over Elizabeth: "Come back with me to stop your father! A letter arrived just now, God knows who wrote it, and your father said he would go out for a few days after reading it. I asked him where he was going and he didn't say. If he Now, what should I do if Mr. Darcy has proposed to you and wants to find him?"
This matter was yelled out by Mrs. Bennet loudly. The key point is that Darcy, the person involved, has not expressed his position in front of the woman's relatives. If this is not the case, Elizabeth's face will never be recovered for the rest of her life.
Elizabeth was also very helpless about this, but she was more concerned about why Mr. Bennet was in such a hurry to leave Longbourn.
"I'm going home now," she asked Darcy, "do you want to come?"
Darcy desperately told himself that he would live with Elizabeth in Pemberley in the future, and that he would have little chance to see the mother-in-law. Thinking about it this way, he suppressed his irritability, but Mr. Bennet was a relatively reliable squire. Surprised to leave Darcy too.But he must settle the matter of his and Elizabeth's engagement before the father-in-law leaves. He has encountered too many obstacles and obstacles before, and Darcy almost wants to go to church to pray.
However, they were still a step too late.
Moreover, Mr. Bennet's behavior has been beautified by Mrs. Bennet.
For the gentleman rode away from Longbourn in a hurry, almost in a panic.
Before Mrs. Bennet went out, she also took care of two stout maids not to let Mr. Bennet go.
But he couldn't prevent Mr. Bennet from jumping out from the low back wall of the garden.
Seeing her son-in-law, who earns [-] pounds a year, step into her house with one foot but not the other, Mrs. Bennet’s vision went dark. She still has four daughters who cannot be married. Why is life so difficult? !
It turned out that he had always wanted to propose marriage, but had to shelve it because of one thing or another.
