[Pride and Prejudice] Crossing into Elizabeth

Missy, Raina, and Lisa, having received Mr. Darcy's orders, all said they would do as their master told them to do.

Elizabeth didn't expect Mr. Darcy to be so serious, and now she really didn't know what to say.

This...isn't Mr. Darcy taking too much care of her?

He even asked the maid to notify him immediately if there was anything.

Elizabeth blushed, and it was difficult to control herself from thinking wildly.

On the contrary, Miss Darcy was hesitant to speak, and Mr. Darcy noticed it. He asked his sister: "What do you want to say, Georgiana?"

Miss Darcy said in a low voice: "Actually, I can also help. If Miss Elizabeth needs anything, you can also tell me."

Elizabeth was about to say no, when she suddenly noticed Mr. Darcy's expression. Mr. Darcy had a slight smile on his face, and he said to his sister: "Georgiana, it's good if you have the heart, but you're too young, the family members The matter is not clear, so you can stay in your room with peace of mind, brother will take care of it if something happens."

Elizabeth liked the way Mr. Darcy spoke to his sister, sincerity, reliability, and authority.

She suddenly envied Miss Darcy, who had such a brother and was naturally doted on by Mr. Darcy.

Miss Darcy seemed to really want to help, but she felt that her brother's arrangement was the best, and fearing that she would only be a disservice, she said nothing more.

Then everyone said a few more words, and Mrs. Reynolds looked out of the window. The window was closed tightly, and even the curtains were drawn, but through the gaps in the curtains, it could be seen that it was completely dark. Mrs. Reynolds said at once, "It's getting dark. Let Miss Elizabeth have a good rest."

This obviously meant to leave, and Miss Darcy, feeling that she could not be of much help by staying here, followed Mrs. Reynolds out.

Mr. Darcy felt that there was no reason for him to stay any longer, so he had to go along with him. Mr. Darcy walked at the end. Elizabeth watched him walk slowly towards the door. Mr. Darcy was about to reach the blind corner of her sight. When he did, he turned his head and looked this way.

The three of them went out quickly, the door was gently closed, and Elizabeth slowly felt the burning sensation in her chest again.

But I feel happy in my heart.

Elizabeth was originally sitting on the bed with the pillow upright and leaning against her back. She wanted to lie down now, so she turned sideways to put the pillow back. A maid hurried over to help her, and the pillow was put back in its original position. She also helped her lie back slowly.

"What's your name?"

Elizabeth asked her, she heard Mr. Darcy call their names one by one just now, but she was a little nervous at the time, she didn't remember them, she only remembered one named Missy, but she didn't know which one it was.

She said her name was Missy.

Elizabeth smiled at her. She wanted to ask the names of the other two people, but after lying down, she felt tired and couldn't keep her eyes open.

Elizabeth closed her eyes, and soon fell back into a deep sleep.

She was woken up by Missy once, and Elizabeth woke up in a daze. The room was very dark, probably because she was afraid of affecting her sleep, only candlelight was lit in the living room halfway across the wall, and the night seemed very deep. .

Elizabeth looked at Missy in a daze, not knowing why she woke her up.

"Miss," Missy said, "drink some water before going to sleep. The doctor said that you need to drink more water to recover quickly."

As she spoke, Missy helped her up, and quickly gave her a glass of water. Elizabeth took the water glass over. The water glass was hot, but it was just barely hot. She was really caring.

After Elizabeth finished drinking, Missy handed her another glass. Elizabeth couldn't drink it after a few sips, but she also knew that she had to drink more water when she got pneumonia, so she forced herself to drink the second glass.The whole night and the following day passed in a daze, I just remembered being called up to drink water, sometimes it was Missy, sometimes it was Jane, and I still vaguely felt that someone came to visit her from time to time .

When the consciousness was fully awake again, the light had already shone in from the gap in the curtains, and it was already another morning.

Missy walked over quickly.

"Miss, are you awake? Are you feeling better now?"

At first, Elizabeth didn't feel any better, but when she asked her, she suddenly found that her chest was not as hot as yesterday. Elizabeth felt it carefully, and it really didn't feel like it was burning like yesterday. Although she still felt hot, she felt comfortable. too much.

Elizabeth touched her forehead again, and it seemed that the fever had subsided.

Elizabeth was pleasantly surprised.

Missy also felt incredible, "I'll tell Mr. Darcy immediately," she shouted happily, "and Dr. Pogue, let him come over quickly, I'll go now!"

Elizabeth quickly stopped her, she hasn't washed and washed for two days, she is unkempt, how can she see people so early in the morning?Yesterday, she was so uncomfortable physically that she didn't think about it. Now that she thought about it, Elizabeth said that she couldn't go to see Mr. Darcy like this.

She thought of nothing else, but felt that she should not be seen by Mr. Darcy.

But she couldn't tell Missy directly about such thoughts. Elizabeth turned her head and thought of an excuse, which sounded reasonable. She said, "Missy, it's still early, and Mr. Darcy must still I'm sleeping, let's talk about it later when everyone wakes up."

"Mr. Darcy won't mind. He will be very happy to hear the news. Yesterday he specifically told me that you should inform him immediately of any situation here, whether good or bad."

Missy was very excited and was about to go out as she spoke.

"Missy!" Elizabeth had no choice but to tell the truth, her face was blushing, "You must let me freshen up first."

Missy was stunned for a moment, as if she finally understood, she said briskly: "Then I'll go get some hot water."

The hot water came soon, Missy brought a very clean basin filled with hot water, and a clean towel was placed beside it, Missy put the washbasin on the bedside table, and quickly brought over a piece with Patterned face soap. There is a bathroom in this room, but Missy said it was too cold in there.

"Let's just make do with this first, or we'll be in trouble if we catch a cold," Missy said.

Elizabeth thought that she was so careful last night, and couldn't help saying: "Missy, I will suddenly get better, and it's all thanks to you."

Missy smiled and said that this is what she should do, "I just did what Mr. Darcy told me," she said, "Mr. Darcy told me that I can't let you sleep all the time, let me wake you up in the middle of the night Drink water, Mr. Darcy really cares about you, he also told me that you should not let you touch cold water, you must drink hot water."

When Missy talked about Mr. Darcy, she smiled again. Elizabeth didn't know if it was because she had a ghost in her heart, but she always felt that Missy's smile was a bit narrow.

Elizabeth felt blushing, and didn't pick up Missy's words. She wanted to change the topic casually and say something else, but she felt a little flustered in her heart, so she simply said nothing, and took the time to freshen up.

She washed her face and brushed her hair, and Missy helped her tidy it up.

The pajamas were a little wrinkled, and she couldn't wear them anymore. Missy quickly found another pajamas, but Elizabeth didn't want to lie on the bed anymore, and she felt that she would recover faster if she walked around.

Elizabeth smiled and said, "I don't wear this."

She went to the closet by herself and took out a plain dress. "I'll wear this," she said to Missy, "I want to go outside."

"You want to go outside?"

Missy seemed surprised. Elizabeth thought she had misunderstood, so she told her: "I don't want to go outside the house. I'll just walk inside the house. I haven't been to many rooms here."

When Missy heard this, she smiled rather strangely.

Elizabeth looked at her questioningly, not understanding what she meant.

Missy looked around, and there were actually only two of them in the room, Sophia was not here, and the other two maids also went to rest at night, and they would come to change Missy's shift later.

Missy cautiously looked around and looked at her, as if she had something to say to her, but it was inconvenient for others to hear.

She confirmed that there was no one around, and then said to her in a low voice: "I shouldn't say this, but you'd better not go out of the room now, Mrs. Reynolds will definitely be upset. I went out for a day the day before yesterday." I happened to pass by Miss Darcy's room, and Mrs. Reynolds was also in Miss Darcy's room, and I heard her tell Miss Darcy not to come to your room again, because she was afraid that you would infect Miss Darcy."

Elizabeth froze for a moment, could pneumonia be contagious?

She suddenly remembered that that night, when Mrs. Reynolds saw the Darcy brothers and sisters with her, the smile on her face suddenly faded. She must have been worried about this at that time.

This is no wonder people.

Seeing that she stopped talking, Missy seemed very remorseful, and asked cautiously there, "Should I not say this?"

Elizabeth smiled at her, "It's okay, I'll just wear this dress, but I won't go out, just walk around in this room."

"Oh," Missy said as if to make up for something, "Miss Elizabeth, just pretend that I didn't say anything. Anyway, you've started to get better now, and you'll be fine if you go out. You can go out if you want."

Elizabeth smiled and shook her head. It was fine if she didn't know that pneumonia was contagious, but now that she knew it, how could she not be aware of it?

Mrs. Reynolds was justified in having such scruples, but Missy reminded her of something else.

When she thought of this, her heart jumped a little.

This was the only thing I could think of while changing, and Mr. Darcy had the audacity to sit face to face with her.

Isn't he afraid of being infected by her?
