[Pride and Prejudice] Sky Bookstore
Chapter 14
The city of London has experienced many years of development. From being cramped and messy at the beginning, it has developed to the point where it has complete facilities and all kinds of items, making it a passable place for people to live in.
After Skye found his younger brother Elsie, he took him to sell the few properties in the family and returned to London after leaving home.
Fortunately, her headaches did not follow her all her life like tarsal maggots. On the contrary, all these things got better as she grew up.By the time she was 24, everything was back to normal, like her attire.
Skye finally realizes what happened to him.Someone tried to snatch her body, but in the end she failed, leaving only a few trivial memories.
This person is probably from the future, and what she has seen and heard is almost appalling.Skye recalled the picture in his memory, and felt that the age of the snatcher should not be very old.
At first she thought it was a great gift from God, and she could use it to predict the future or something.
—but failed miserably on the first attempt.
Not all conclusions in memory are true.
When Skye invested all the remaining property in a local factory in London, the factory closed down because the equipment was not advanced enough.In my memory, I only talked about investing in factories to make money, but I didn’t mention the intricate profit distribution behind the factory. The result of the first time was that I lost all my money. Naturally, I don’t need to talk about the sadness of each center. Skye had to spend a lot of effort to maintain his basic life. on the issue.
She gradually learned to think about the situation independently, as if she didn't know what the future would look like.She gave up investing in factories and moved several times. At the beginning, she had no money to hire servants, so she could only take care of all the affairs by herself. When she made a small fortune in stocks for the first time, her life began to stabilize down.
Seven years passed in a blink of an eye. 'Seven' is really a magic number, and Skye's younger brother Elsie is growing up.Elsie's academic performance is good, and she is determined to apply for Oxford University.
Skye thought that when he had just returned home, before he entered the manor, he recognized his brother wandering by the river from a distance.She never wanted to ask her brother what he was doing standing there.Swimming is not always a thing in early winter... So, she almost lost her brother forever.
Skye took the gray dumpling brother home and washed him into a white dumpling.
Then she looked at this timid little child—this was the only family she had.
"Skye, I was praised by the teacher again at school today!"
Elsie is a lovely lad now too.
The word 'cute' is taken literally.He was well-bred by Skye, polite, and most importantly, a little baby fat and easy to pinch.
"Okay." Skye sat at the table and settled the accounts.The distance between the city of London and the original small town is not very far, but that period of unbridled and relaxed days is a long time ago.People always have to take responsibility for a better future.
Life is fine now, too, as long as Elsie doesn't brag about little things in front of her all the time.
Skye treats his younger brother with the attitude of a patriarch.She was impatient in this area and didn't pay much attention to the homework at Elsie's school.
The perfunctory Elsie shriveled her mouth aggrievedly, her big black and white eyes were flickering, and there was a moist effect in the blink of an eye.
Skye felt that Elsie had been quiet for a while, she looked up in surprise, and met her brother's eyes.
Elsie is also the type with well-developed tear glands.His eyes, for no apparent reason, hooked Skye's memory back many years.
She thought of an arrogant young man, that guy always put on a vicious look, but he didn't know that when he got angry and burst into tears, he had no deterrent effect at all.
Skye's greatest pleasure at the time was to drive Mr. Darcy mad.Speaking of which, the process of developing this hobby is quite strange.Compared with the half a year she stayed in the small town, the short half a month she met Darcy was the most interesting time.
For many years after that, Skye did not meet a man so interesting.What's even more amazing is that Darcy stays in London for about a month every year, but she only saw him again this year.
To be exact, it was a one-sided encounter.
Skye was not a frequent visitor to the London Stock Exchange.But thanks to good luck and the experience she gained from hard work, Skye's bank deposits have increased year by year. In recent years, she has always gone to the stock exchange several times to resolve some related matters.
The difference in the number of deposits leads to great differences in the traders received.In Skye's case, she held small funds of £[-] to £[-] and could only sit in the lobby waiting for the window in line.
During the waiting process, Skye saw that the executives of the stock exchange warmly welcomed a person in.Such treatment is not available to everyone.There is no doubt that the person who is supported by layers of support and walks in is a big man, a well-deserved rich man!
Such people usually enter the VIP reception room directly.And following the rules, these people all have an average hair volume of middle-aged baldness, and a few people's hair will suffer a catastrophe.They are over forty in common. Before seeing this distinguished guest, Skye's conjectures have never failed.
The group approached.When passing by the waiting bench, a gap was accidentally exposed in the crowd, and Skye was able to spy on the true appearance of the person who was being hugged.
——A young man with thick hair, good-looking, calm and dignified manner, his eyes are cold, and he walks around surrounded by people.
This man is Darcy!
Skye had to admit that his mind changed when he met Darcy years later.She looked at this man from a worldly perspective, and confirmed that he had become the kind of man they joked about at the beginning... a man who would be chased and blocked by women.
Darcy, who was walking, felt that someone was watching him.He followed his senses and looked back, only a strange woman sitting on a bench.Although there are few women who have inherited property these days, it is not impossible.
The interlaced sight is fleeting.
Skye's face is calm and breezy here, except for the admiration of the general public, there is no extra emotion in his expression, and Darcy has seen such eyes a lot, and he just turns around and forgets about it.
"Sorry, I'm late."
The economic man who came in a hurry interrupted Skye's memory.Skye smiled and forgave his manager for being late.
She freed herself from the memory and faced the document handed in front of her again.
"I think a change can be made here..."
"...Sister?...Sister?" Elsie leaned in front of Skye. He had never seen Skye distracted.But she looks stuck in a happy memory.
In Elsie's heart, Skye is the most powerful person in the world.Some things about her childhood were less clear to Elsie.But he did not forget the fact that he stood by the river that day.Skye takes him away from the river and announces that he has a family.They sat in a bumpy bullock cart and changed vehicles countless times. At the worst time, they lived in a slum in London. After moving several times, their life gradually improved.
Skye is a great guy.Elsie was sure that the parents of her classmates...women about Skye's age, only knew how to dance on the dance floor in beautiful clothes.When his classmates describe their sisters, they always say what kind of beautiful jewelry they have, what kind of precious jewelry they have.
But Elsie can say more. He can show off his sister's library, where she takes him.They go to the countryside every year to play, go to the store to make big purchases, and find a tailor to make clothes.They are doing all the things that rich people do.
Elsie sometimes shows off in front of his classmates what a wonderful sister he has.
"You're talking about your brother, right?"—that's what his classmates said at first.
"Your sister is a weird old woman. She doesn't socialize because she's too ugly. She can't find a good marriage even if she has money..." - His classmates later changed when they grew up tone.
Elsie once went to Skye with tears in her eyes, crying about the violence of her classmates.But this is already a few years ago.Skye didn't even look at him at the time, as if it was something boring.
`···Although Elsie did not receive verbal comfort.
But on the weekend of that week, Skye still took a carriage and went to school to pick up Elsie from school.His classmates saw what they called a 'queer woman', who was actually a young, proud and beautiful lady.Skye wore a rare gorgeous dress that day - she is really beautiful when she is carefully dressed!
"What else?"
Skye returned from the memory, and when he looked up, he saw his brother's face very close to him.
Elsie's tear ducts are as developed as Darcy's.Really don't know how Darcy corrected this after all these years.Skye thought with a headache.
"Ah! There is a banquet at Locke's house in a few days, and he invited me to..."
"Who's Locke?" Skye privately didn't want to put himself in the role of a kindergarten nurse.But every aspect of caring for a younger brother is always trivial.Concern for the physical and mental health of young children is obviously included.
"A new friend of mine whose father is a judge." Elsie made a big gesture to show Mr. Rose's status in London.
This made Skye suddenly think of one thing - Elsie is already 15 years old, it seems that he can inherit a title when he reaches the legal age, right?Although in a place like London, the fathers of many of his classmates have titles, but if Elsie inherits the title, there may still be some twists and turns, and this needs to be prepared in advance.
"Since you are friends, go. Let the butler arrange a carriage for you." Skye has no special restrictions on Elsie's making friends.
"But..." Elsie was not as excited as usual after getting a positive answer, he hesitated in front of Skye.
In the end, Skye had to stop what he was doing, looked at his younger brother seriously, and asked him, "What else is there?"
After Skye found his younger brother Elsie, he took him to sell the few properties in the family and returned to London after leaving home.
