Countess of Pride and Prejudice

After a short silence, Mrs. Bennet suddenly said something like this. Elizabeth didn't care to talk about her mother, so she handed the cards in her hand to Charlotte who was standing aside: "Charlotte, help me finish the rest of the game." Here's the card, I'll go out and see Georgiana."

Charlotte should be. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Madam Catherine said indifferently: "Oh, you are already old enough to fall in love, and you are still so shy? Darcy, you think your sister is too fragile gone."

"I think, dear aunt, you can play more cards and talk less." Mr. Darcy wanted to chase out to see how his sister was doing, but there must be no one in the room, so he could only grit his teeth and ask Mrs. Catherine like this. .

It was rare to see Mr. Darcy so angry, and Lady Catherine decided to keep her mouth shut, and the game went on, and Mary resumed her reading.

It seems that something is different.Charlotte looked in the direction where Philip was, seeing that Philip seemed a little restless, Charlotte couldn't help but smile.

Count Max had already walked up to Philip and whispered something to him, and they both walked out of the living room.When Earl Max walked out of the living room, he gestured to Charlotte.Charlotte lowered her eyes and did not think about it, but there was already a smile on her face that was not the same as usual.

Elizabeth did not find Georgiana in Georgiana's room, so she walked out of the mansion into the woods, and found Georgiana crying on a gentle hillside by the creek.

Elizabeth stepped forward and held Georgiana in her arms: "Honey, don't pay attention to what my mother said. If possible, I will apologize to you on her behalf."

Georgiana wiped the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief before saying: "No, Elizabeth, I don't care about what Mrs. Bennet said, but I care, you know, Elizabeth, this was originally a secret, but now When people talk about it like this, I feel that the whole person..."

"Honey, I know. You just happened to fall in love with someone who doesn't love you. You are still you, nothing has changed." Elizabeth's comfort made Georgiana's crying start to become choked.

It took a long time before Georgiana raised her head and asked Elizabeth: "So, can I meet someone who I love and he loves me?" Of course, Elizabeth held Georgiana's face: "My dear, not only that, you And I can see him in the crowd at a glance." This kind of feeling, meeting someone who loves you, this feeling is extremely wonderful.

Georgiana nodded to Elizabeth, Elizabeth touched Georgiana's face, and the two left the hillside and walked towards the building.

"Count, you asked me to come out just to let me listen to the conversation between Mrs. Darcy and Miss Darcy?" Not long after they left the hillside, Philip's voice came from behind the bushes.

"No, Philip, it's not just that, I also want to know, what kind of heart do you have for my cousin, Georgiana?" Earl Max's question made Philip fall silent.

Although he remained silent, Earl Max didn't want to let him go: "Listen, Philip, if you don't love my cousin, then don't be so close to her. For example, teach her to archery at a garden party. Compliments at the piano, and other things that I may not have seen, and you've had a lot with her too. Philip, Georgiana is Darcy's only sister, and if you're not sure, make sure you don't have another woman in your heart, I don't want you to have so much contact with her. For a man like you, his family background, appearance and even upbringing are the best choices. For a girl like Georgiana, she will fall in love with you."

Earl Max was rarely so serious, Philip neither admitted nor denied immediately, just stood there, letting the night wind blow.

"Of course, maybe I'm worrying too much, and maybe you're just being polite to my cousin a lot. But you know, Philip, it's often hard for young girls to tell what's polite and what's not. Out of love." Since he couldn't wait for Philip's answer, Count Max continued.

But Philip was still silent, and Earl Max reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Now that you see it, let's go."

"No, Earl, my contact with Miss Darcy is more due to..." Philip began with some difficulty, maybe he didn't even understand why he wanted to talk to Georgiana for a while.Maybe it's the smile on her face, or her beautiful piano sound?

Or for other purposes, Philip knew that Georgiana and Charlotte were completely different women, but why would such two people attract him?

"So, tell me, Philip, tell me if you still love Mrs. Collins? Philip, although we are good friends, I don't want my cousin to marry a man who has other women in his heart." Earl Max's words Made Philip shake his head: "No, Earl, I can tell you the truth. When I knew that there was no possibility between me and Mrs. Collins, my love for her turned into friendship."

These words successfully made Earl Max's lips rise, but now is not the time to be happy, and he has to confirm again, to confirm Philip's attitude towards Georgiana?After all, Earl Max was unwilling to harm Georgiana.

"So, Philip, do you mean that you may fall in love with Georgiana?" This progress was a little too fast, Philip shook his head: "Count, how can I answer you?"

"Oh, Philip, what's the problem? If you're in love with Georgiana, make a bold statement and propose to her. It's normal even if the proposal isn't allowed. If not, well, we're leaving Pemberley to-morrow, Maybe when I come again next time, it will be for Georgiana's wedding."

"But this wedding is between Georgiana and someone else." Maybe because Philip didn't hear clearly, Earl Max added another sentence after saying this.

Philip was silent for a longer time this time, and Earl Max patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go, as for what Aunt Catherine said, don't care, she is just such a person."

"I don't care what Lady Catherine says, I'm just worried that it will disturb Miss Darcy." Philip's words made Earl Max laugh: "So, is this out of your politeness or something else?"

Philip still refused to answer this time, and Earl Max didn't ask any more questions. After all, for a reserved person like Philip, this question was indeed a big one.

When the two returned to the living room, the living room was not full of voices as before. Mr. Darcy no longer played cards, but was talking to Georgiana there.Mrs. Catherine's complexion was very bad, and Mrs. Bennet always didn't know what trouble she had gotten into, but just concentrated on playing cards there.

Seeing Philip and Earl Max come in, Mr. Darcy and his sister whispered something, and Mr. Darcy got up and walked in front of Philip: "Sorry, Mr. Rochester, I want to replace my aunt and my mother-in-law. Apologize for that."

Mrs. Catherine almost lost all the cards in her hand. Mrs. Bennet looked at her son-in-law, her eyes widened.

Elizabeth stretched out her hand to hold her mother's hand, signaling her to calm down, and then Elizabeth said, "Yes, Mr. Rochester, I am sorry for my mother's gaffe."

Philip didn't expect to accept Mr. Darcy's apology. Just now Earl Max's words sounded in Philip's ears again. Philip's hands began to clenched into fists and then loosened. Then Philip said: "Then, I also express to Miss Darcy. Apologies because I…”

Philip's words stopped after seeing Georgiana's expression. Would talking like this be too cruel to a young girl?Philip's brows frowned even tighter.

Georgiana took a deep breath and was about to accept Philip's apology, but Philip had already said to Mr. Darcy: "Then, please allow me to propose to Miss Darcy to make up for the harm I caused her."

Proposal?The word made Mrs. Bennet let out a cry of surprise, and everyone else present was shocked.Earl Max didn't expect Philip to turn so fast, but Charlotte was calmer. After all, according to Philip's performance in the past two days, he had already been convinced by Georgiana, but he didn't admit it.

"Sorry, brother, sorry, Mr. Rochester, I can't accept your marriage proposal." Georgiana was the first person to wake up. She stood up and said the above words in an emphatic tone, and then ran out in a hurry.

Elizabeth chased it out again, and Darcy stayed here to talk to Philip.Mr. Darcy spoke with some difficulty: "Mr. Rochester, do you know the meaning of what you just said?"

"Yes, I know, Mr. Darcy." Philip took a deep breath before speaking again: "I quite understand what I just said, and I always thought that being courteous to your sister was only out of politeness and education. , but just now I discovered that it’s not just that.”

Philip stopped after saying this sentence, maybe just now, he realized that he had a different mentality towards Georgiana, and even, a different mentality from the original towards Charlotte.Philip glanced at Charlotte, who was sitting there with a smile on her lips.Yes, she also saw that, only she, the client, didn't know anything about it.

"Anyway, I think, Fitzwilliam, it's not suitable for us to continue talking about this matter here. Come on, let's go to other places. As for everyone, let's continue playing cards here." Earl Max pushed Da Xi and Philip went out and closed the door of the living room without any surprises, and heard a burst of exclamation from inside the door.
