[Pride and Prejudice] My husband loves me again

With Kent bordering London, it was no surprise to meet the Countess of Jersey.

However, the current situation is very embarrassing.

Torrential rain, lonely men and widows, neither the direction to London, nor the direction to Rosings Manor, the only destination to the southeast is Dover Port.

How could such a clever person as the Countess of Jersey fail to guess?

She pulled her head back.

Elizabeth vaguely saw someone in the opposite carriage through the window, and the Countess of Jersey might be discussing with "him".It was raining so hard outside, and I couldn’t get out of the car to say hello when I happened to meet on the road. Darcy was a pragmatic person, and he didn’t put his hopes on others to lend a helping hand for no reason. Elizabeth felt that the carriage moved, but the magnitude It didn't work at all.

Darcy, who was covered in muddy water under the rain curtain, was a little embarrassed.

The Countess of Jersey ordered her carriage to stop on the side of the road, and asked the two drivers who accompanied the carriage to come forward to help. Darcy was so wet that it was inconvenient to thank her, so he had to accept the other party's kindness, and the four of them together Using force, Elizabeth's carriage was quickly pushed out of the mud pit.Darcy was dripping from head to toe, and was about to go back to his carriage when the door of Countess Jersey's carriage was suddenly pushed open.

She held a big whalebone umbrella and led a woman in a raincoat. Not many people could make the Countess of Jersey treat her so carefully, and Darcy couldn't help but take another look.

But I couldn't see anything through the rain curtain.

"Mr. Darcy," said the Countess of Jersey with a smile, "change to another car."

The coachman opened the door to let Elizabeth come out, and the two of them had no room to refuse, and the Countess of Jersey proposed to change the carriage, which would allow them to escape more smoothly, because if it was not for the rain, the luxurious decoration on the Duchess carriage and the The family coat of arms of the Bauer family is too eye-catching, and the carriage used by the countess is very low-key and unobtrusive.

She couldn't help the two of them refuse, and helped the woman in the raincoat into the carriage of De Bourgh's family.

As she passed by, Elizabeth seemed to notice that the person in the tightly wrapped rain hood seemed to be Miss Charlotte Brunswick.

She thought she had read it wrong, and when she had to take a closer look, the other party had already closed the door of the carriage.

Elizabeth had no choice but to sit in the countess's carriage with Darcy, and thank each other only in the future. The two carriages headed south and north to different destinations.

After the mysterious woman sat down, she took off her hood. The material of the raincoat was very good. Except for the wet feet, the rest of the body was dry. This raincoat was invented by a tailor named Thomas Burberry in recent years. style, she smiled silently.

The Countess of Jersey watched him carefully, and then asked cautiously: "Your Royal Highness, are we still going to see the Duke of Devonshire today?"

"Send someone to tell the Duke that I have changed my mind and I won't go today." Princess Charlotte was lost in the rain outside the window. Today is a very important day. She chose to meet the Duke of Devonshire today, but To make sure their plans for both of them are going well, she just didn't expect to run into Darcy and Elizabeth eloping.

He even eloped!

Sure enough, things in this world are not static, so Princess Charlotte lost interest in going to see the Duke.

What she needs to do most now is to wait patiently.

Although the plan was changed, the Countess of Jersey did not see any displeasure on the princess's face. She has always been a character who will come to trouble, so she joked: "This is also an adventure, princess, the richest man in Derbyshire, Darcy Sir and my guest of honor, Miss Elizabeth Bennet, eloped, and I almost thought that their business would fail, and the Regent probably didn't think of it either."

Charlotte knew that the other party wanted to ask herself why she wanted to help them, and condescendingly proposed to change the carriage.

"I am willing to do everything in secret to make my father unhappy," Princess Charlotte smiled happily. She was only delicate and usually serious. It was the first time the Countess of Jersey saw her smile so briskly. I heard her say again: "But I also have my own selfishness in helping them. This is the first and last time."

The Countess of Jersey didn't say anything more, and the carriage drove all the way back to London, which really messed up the people the Duchess sent out to inquire about the news.If it hadn't been for what happened later, Darcy and Elizabeth would have successfully crossed the sea to France the next day, and there was almost no suspense about the success of the elopement.

At this time, Elizabeth was sitting in the carriage, always worried about Miss Brunswick's appearance.

She had a very strange impression of this mysterious lady. Charlotte had told her that she was one of the only three people who bet on her in the club.

Darcy and Charlotte bet on themselves purely for sentimental reasons, so what was Miss Brunswick for?Is it for fun?

Elizabeth comforted herself that at least she didn't make Miss Brunswick lose everything, and even doubled her profit.

When she got out of the car she was holding tightly to her bosom the coat which Darcy had taken off earlier, and a dry suit was more useful at such a time.Elizabeth asked Darcy to dry himself hastily with the shawl she was carrying, then asked him to put on a dry coat, and wring out the water from the trouser legs, so that it might last to Maidstone, the county capital, and then take a hot bath Take a bath, eat a full meal and then sleep well. As long as Darcy is healthy enough, maybe he won't catch a cold.

Old Mr. Darcy once had a house in Maidstone, firstly for the convenience of Kent's business dealings, and secondly for the convenience of a half-way stopover when sailing to France, even though the Duchess-in-law could provide a place to stay Therefore, it is a pity that Rosings Manor is still a bit far from the port of Dover.

When Darcy knocked on the door, the housekeeper hadn't seen him for more than a year. Fortunately, Darcy took good care of the family's assets and was very generous to the hired servants. When visiting, one should be well prepared.Mrs. Lorenzo, who was in charge of the housekeeping, directed all the people in the house to work, but when she saw Darcy coming in with a young girl, Mrs. Lorenzo was not calm.

Although she doesn't often see the old master and the young master, she is also a caring person.

Elizabeth was extremely embarrassed by her, and Darcy quickly comforted her: "It's all right, this is Mrs. Lorenzo. If you need anything, you can tell her."

Mrs. Lorenzo couldn't believe that her little master would elope. After a pause, she finally suggested, "Do you need a priest?"

Darcy was stunned, and looked at Elizabeth, thinking that it would be better to settle the name as soon as possible, anyway, he would never marry a woman other than Elizabeth in his life, even if he was captured by his aunt, Elizabeth was already his wife at that time Yes, he nodded: "Then please excuse me."

Both of them went downstairs after taking a bath and changing clothes. The pastor had already arrived despite the wind and rain.

Just like the duchess to Collins, Darcy is also the benefactor of Pastor John in identity, and he is willing to preside over this secret wedding.

"It's good luck." Mrs. Lorenzo hurriedly adjusted Elizabeth's dress, "This is the evening dress worn by old Mrs. Darcy when she went to Rosings Manor 20 years ago, otherwise where would she go? Looking for a dress with a small trailing tail! But you are tall, if you wear high heels, the skirt will not be able to cover the instep, and this lace, even if you appreciate it after 20 years, it is extremely delicate. I'll have to look again and maybe find the veil in the lady's wardrobe."

Darcy smiled and watched them busy, and when Mrs. Lorenzo walked away, he broke a jasmine from a vase and put it on Elizabeth's head.

The small white flowers are fragrant.

It seemed that they were not in a small house in a thunderstorm, but in the sunshine and lawn in the most beautiful June. Elizabeth really did not expect that she would become a June bride so quickly.

"Oh, Mr. Darcy, how can you break my flowers to coax a girl?! You are such a person, Mr. Darcy!" Mrs. Lorenzo complained, but her hands kept moving, and she moved her hands carefully. of the gauze over Elizabeth's hair.

With Mrs. Lorenzo as witness, Reverend John read a long passage from the scriptures, then took the two by the hand and asked them if they would like to be married.

Elizabeth was almost laughing, for she felt that Reverend John should ask her: "Dear Miss Elizabeth Bennet, would you like to marry Mr. Darcy a second time?"

She would, of course she would.

Marrying Mr. Darcy for the second time has more twists and turns than the first time.

So the moment was all the sweeter.

"Is there any objection here?" Pastor John routinely asked.

"Mr. Darcy is my employer," Mrs. Lorenzo said narrowly, "I have no objection, it's sincere."

Elizabeth and Darcy both laughed.

But when Elizabeth sat on the bed in the bedroom and saw a special bottle of sesame oil beside the bed, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Mrs. Darcy," Darcy held Elizabeth in his arms in a standing posture, and lightly tapped the back of Elizabeth's neck with his fingers in turn, like a kind of ambiguous dance step: "Mrs. Darcy, It sounds really moving."

Elizabeth deliberately poured cold water on him: "Yes, I'm still wearing Mrs. Darcy's old dress!"

Darcy was unmoved and determined: "Then I don't mind helping you get rid of the shackles, Elizabeth." He also looked at the bottle of sesame oil: "Madame Lorenzo's kindness, she just wants us to relax a little bit."

Marrying the same person for the second time, Elizabeth's body is green, but emotionally she longs for Darcy.

Her reaction was very encouraging to Darcy, what could be more exciting than a new wife so soft and charming, and the sesame oil was simply superfluous.

Darcy felt a surge of emotion in his chest, an emotion so strong that it almost lifted his arms to pain, as if the downpour of rain had lifted the Thames above the water mark, just waiting for the ship to set sail.

His wife, and his and Elizabeth's future children, would no longer be alone with him and Georgiana in Pemberley.

Darcy suddenly lost his strength and rolled over beside Elizabeth.

Elizabeth's face was covered with thin sweat, and she looked at Darcy who stopped abruptly in disbelief.

"I'm sorry, Elizabeth," Darcy was trying to restrain himself: "but I don't want our child to become an illegitimate child. I want our son or daughter to be named Darcy's surname in a fair way. I hope he will be The pride of all of us, not the need to hide."

Elizabeth also suddenly calmed down and returned to her senses, but women are much better than men.

Darcy also knew that his current state was very embarrassing: "Well, it is very annoying sometimes, and women don't have such troubles."

"I don't need to have this kind of trouble." Elizabeth glanced at that part: "You just need to have it."

With a low moan, Darcy felt that all his efforts to calm down just now were in vain.

He held Elizabeth's hand. Elizabeth saw that his eyes were brighter than candlelight, bit her lip and did not refuse.

The wind and rain did not stop overnight, but the room was quiet and safe.

It was not past midnight when Mrs. Lorenzo knocked on the bedroom door suddenly. Nothing very urgent happened and she would not disturb the newlyweds.

Darcy kissed the dazed Elizabeth's forehead, told her to sleep a little longer, put on her nightgown and opened the door to talk to Mrs. Lorenzo.

"Mr. Darcy, I'm afraid you won't be able to go to France tomorrow." Mrs. Lorenzo was very flustered, but she tried her best to maintain her composure. The housekeeper is a little friendly, the relatives of their master sent the news overnight, and the post office in the town did not dare to delay and delivered it to the door immediately."

Darcy took the thin roll of paper and leaned closer to the candlelight to see it.

The delivery date is June 1815, 6.

The note read "Waterloo defeated, Duke of Wellington dead".
