Countess of Pride and Prejudice

"Georgianna, you are indeed not a child anymore!" After waiting for a long time, Earl Max spoke slowly, but his face did not change much.This performance surprised Georgiana, and then Georgiana said cautiously: "I know, Earl, such words offend you, but not everyone who is not as noble as you is willing to accept your words... "

"Georgianna!" Earl Max interrupted Georgiana, which made Georgiana stunned again, and Earl Max couldn't help laughing: "Don't be so nervous. So, Georgiana, since you understand here, can you tell me how to do it?" To impress Mrs Collins?"

Georgiana has never been so surprised as now, she looked at Earl Max speechless.Earl Max smiled: "Georgianna, although I have done a lot of wrong things, and you are right, but I can be sure that I really fell in love with Mrs. Collins, not that kind, maybe I can't find the right adjective. But, I think you should understand!"

Earl Max's words made Georgiana wave her hand in the air before falling: "I understand, Earl, I understand what you mean, but I'm sorry, I don't know about it either."

Earl Max was not too depressed, Georgiana thought for a while and said, "Maybe, Elizabeth knows."

"No, Georgiana, Mrs. Darcy may not know."

"Why?" Georgiana frowned again.Earl Max didn't say the answer, but was about to get up and leave.At this time, a maid came over and said to Georgiana: "Miss, there is a letter from Mr. Bingley. Sir, please come over."

Calculating the time, Mrs. Bingley is due to give birth in a few days, so this is probably good news.As Jane's closest sister, and a good friend of Mr. Bingley.It is estimated that the Darcy couple will go to congratulate, so before that, it is normal to ask Georgiana a few words.

Georgiana walked to the place where her brother called, and suddenly thought of one thing. Once her brother and sister-in-law go, when Philip comes, she will be the host to receive her. This is really something that Georgiana can't face .

Even so, Georgiana could not do anything to prevent Mr. Darcy from congratulating the Bingleys on the addition of a beautiful little daughter when facing her very happy brother.She just frowned slightly: "Please congratulate Mrs. and Mrs. Bingley on my behalf. But brother, Mr. Rochester may arrive in Pemberley in these two days. If you are not here, it will be a bit uncomfortable."

Elizabeth was letting the servants pack their luggage. Elizabeth understood what Georgiana said. She stepped forward and put her arms around Georgiana's shoulders: "My dear, we will only be back in two or three days. Your brother may arrive at Mr. Rochester back to Pemberley before."

Georgiana tried her best to keep calm when facing Mr. Darcy, not thinking about the possibility of facing Philip alone, but Georgiana still showed a little embarrassment in front of her sister-in-law.

"My dear, don't worry, we will be back soon." Elizabeth reassured, Mr. Darcy glanced at his sister, and now Georgiana's unnaturalness was seen by Mr. Darcy, he frowned and looked at Elizabeth: "How can I I think you two are hiding something from me."

Elizabeth was about to speak when Georgiana said, "Brother, you know, this is a secret between me and Elizabeth." Since Georgiana was still unwilling to tell Mr. Darcy about this, Elizabeth could only follow Georgiana's advice. The words continued: "You know, Georgiana is no longer a child. Between us, there is a secret that only belongs to us women."

Mr. Darcy frowned even tighter, as if he didn't believe it. Georgiana had already smiled: "Don't worry, brother, I will take good care of everyone in Pemberley. Also, when Mr. Rochester arrives, take Rochester Welcome sir."

Perhaps, this is indeed a secret that only belongs to women. Mr. Darcy is willing to let his wife and sister get close, and he also trusts Elizabeth, so Mr. Darcy did not dwell on this issue, so he changed the subject, and Mr. Darcy went to ask Earl Max apologized for needing to go out for a few days.

Elizabeth also invited Charlotte, and told her about it and apologized.

"How can I be unhappy? What a joyful thing this is. Please give my congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Bingley. And their daughter must be very beautiful." Charlotte's words made Elizabeth very happy: "Yes Yes, you have no idea how delighted Mr. Bingley was when he spent two pages describing his daughter's beauty."

The fact that most of the first-born children were red and browless was a testament to Mr. Bingley's delight.Charlotte congratulated again, and soon the Darcys drove off in their carriage to Mr. Bingley's house.

"Now, I'm the only one left." Georgiana muttered to herself, which caused Charlotte's eyebrows to rise slightly: "Georgianna, it seems that you are a little careful?"

"No, it's not. It's just that I've never encountered such a situation. When there are guests at home, I'm the only one left at home." Georgiana said in a concealed manner, and Charlotte didn't ask any further questions. After all, everyone knows the mood of a girl. have.So Charlotte only smiled and said: "Then, I trust, you will make a very good host."

"Thank you!" Georgiana said a little shyly, and this issue was no longer discussed.After lunch, Earl Max went back to his room to rest. Charlotte took little William to continue to the woods. Caroline planned to write a few letters in the room, not only to her family, but also to a few friends she met in London. .

Georgiana was alone in the living room, not in the mood to play the piano and sing at all. Occasionally, her hand touched the keys, and when she heard the messy sound of the piano, Georgiana felt even heavier.I wish Mr. Rochester would arrive later than at Pemberley before his brother returned.

But God still didn't hear Georgiana's prayer this time. Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Georgiana felt that it was not good for her to be so bored, so she planned to ask Caroline to go for a walk in the woods, and then took a drawing board to draw some pictures .As soon as he put on his hat and gloves, he saw a servant coming to announce: "Miss, Mr. Rochester is here."

Although the secret was only known to a few people, Georgiana blushed slightly, and then Georgiana said to Caroline: "I'm sorry, it seems that I can't go for a walk in the woods with you."

"It's okay, Georgiana, I can go by myself and look for Charlotte by the way." While speaking, Philip had already walked in.

Caroline curtsied first and then said to Philip: "Mr. Rochester, I'm sorry for your unfortunate visit. I'm going for a walk in the woods. I'll see you at dinner." Philip bowed to Caroline, and Caroline walked out briskly. .

Only then did Georgiana pack her mood and said to Philip: "I'm glad you can come. Sorry, my brother has already gone out because of something."

"I received a short note from Mr. Darcy at ten miles from Pemberley, which explained the reasons. However, since I have an appointment with Earl Max, I still come to visit." Philip was always polite. .

Georgiana felt that she was going to blush again. This was the first time she had been alone in a room with him, and Georgiana blushed even more at the thought of this situation, but guests could not be asked to stand like this.

Georgiana inhaled and exhaled to keep herself calm: "Please sit down, Mr. Rochester, I hope you don't mind that I'm not good at entertaining guests."

"Every English lady is good at entertaining guests." As a person who is not very talkative, after Philip said this, he didn't bring up other topics.Georgiana asked Philip to sit down, and asked the servant to bring refreshments. Only then did she realize that Philip came here to meet Earl Max.

Thinking of this, Georgiana almost bit her own tongue, how could she forget such a big event?Georgiana hurriedly asked the maid to inform Earl Max, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I messed up the matter again. The Earl has always asked you to give him a message as soon as you arrive."

"I met the Count last week in London," said Philip at last.Georgiana tried hard to find some topics to talk about, but Georgiana felt that they were not suitable topics, whether it was about the weather or anything else.

"Philip, are you sitting here with my beautiful cousin without saying a word? Or are you already speechless because of her beauty?" Count Max looked outside the door for a long time, seeing the relationship between the two of them. He didn't say a word for a while, so he walked in and talked with a smile.

"Hello, Earl, it's great to see you are still the same as before." Philip stood up and greeted Earl Max.

Earl Max reached out and patted Philip on the shoulder, and said to Georgiana: "Georgiana, this guy has never been very talkative, and it's not just you." Georgiana felt even more embarrassed, got up and said: "I think, Count, You and Mr. Rochester must have something to say, then I won't bother you."

Earl Max nodded, and Georgiana forced herself to remain calm and exited the door. The moment the door was closed, Georgiana suddenly wanted to hear what Earl Max and Philip had to say.

But Georgiana blushed at such a thought that was not in keeping with Georgiana's upbringing, and put her hand down from the doorknob to go to the housekeeper and ask her to arrange a place for Philip.
