Countess of Pride and Prejudice

Going to see the king is just the first step, but to gain a foothold in the high society, it is the most normal to go to the balls of various houses.

"I haven't received a single invitation." Sure enough, Madam Alisa had a disappointed look on her face, but Charlotte continued: "But Countess Grey, invited us to the ball at her house tomorrow."

The disappointed look on Mrs. Alisa's face disappeared: "Then, this is not bad. Charlotte, I know that you have performed very well, but you must know that as a mother, I always hope that you can perform well. better."

"I will, Mrs. Alisa!" Charlotte said, holding Mrs. Alisa's hand, with great enthusiasm: "I will not let you down."

"Mom, you have to trust Charlotte. It's almost eleven o'clock now. It's time to go to rest. Little William will arrive in London tomorrow, and Charlotte will meet him." Little William lives with the Lucas couple for the time being. Hartfordshire, now that Charlotte has returned to London, of course he will follow Charlotte to live in the Earl's Mansion.

Madam Alyssa frowned slightly again. It was for the sake of Earl Max that she could accept Charlotte, but this did not mean that Madam Alyssa could accept Little William together.In fact, it was Mrs. Alisa's idea to let Little William live with the Lucas couple. After all, Little William is not penniless.

Not counting Longbourne's property, little William still has 1 pounds of property, which is enough to make him live like a playboy alone.But this is not Charlotte's idea. The Lucas couple is indeed very enthusiastic, and even asks William to live in their house, but the Lucas couple are not knowledgeable enough.And Charlotte hopes that little William can grow up to be a knowledgeable person, so even though she knows that Mrs. Alisa is not happy, Charlotte still asks little William to live in the Earl's Mansion.

"Mom, you should understand the heart of a mother!" Earl Max spoke again. The greatest advantage of Mrs. Alisa is that when she is dissatisfied with one thing, she will think of another good point. Since her son Having said that, Mrs. Alisa only smiled slightly: "I forgot about it. Speaking of which, is Little William's room tidy?"

"It's packed, it's next to the study." Although he didn't know how to be a stepfather, Earl Max knew one thing, that is, a stepson cannot act like a guest in this mansion.

Mrs. Alyssa nodded: "In that case, I'm going to rest, and you should go to rest early!" Both Charlotte and Earl Max saluted Mrs. Alyssa, watching Mrs. Alyssa leave, Charlotte went to Lou Qu: "I really need to rest, you should know, I haven't socialized like this for a long time."

"But you are still used to it very well, Charlotte, you have to know that there are many things that you can't escape if you want to."

Her husband's words seemed to mean something, but Charlotte was determined not to take it to heart. After all, there were many things to face tomorrow, not just this one.

Earl Max looked at his wife's back, with a smile on his lips. Perhaps soon, Charlotte knew that she was indeed born to belong to London.

Sir William personally sent little William to London. When they arrived at Earl Max's mansion, they hadn't had lunch yet.Little William was very happy to see his mother whom he had not seen for almost three weeks.Charlotte also missed little William very much, and hugged him for a long time. Without this child, Charlotte might not be able to survive these days.

"It always gives me great relief to see the reunion of mother and child." Sir William, who was always full of emotion, wiped his eyes and said to Lady Alisa.

Mrs. Alisa knew what kind of people her in-laws were, and she nodded when she heard this: "Yes, Sir, Charlotte and Little William are dependent on each other."

"It's very kind of you to accept little William, ma'am, I knew that a noble lady like you must be very kind. I really don't know how to let Charlotte have such a class." Good marriage." Sir William couldn't help repeating these flattering words, but Mrs. Elisa was not Mrs. Catherine, not only did she not feel very pleased, she even frowned slightly.Charlotte is really not like her parents at all, maybe it is a problem of upbringing.

In this way, Mrs. Alisa felt that it was normal for Charlotte to insist on not allowing Little William to live with the Lucas couple. After all, such a couple can only teach a few short-sighted and shallow people. No real nobleman can be taught.

This idea almost startled Mrs. Elisa, yes, a real nobleman, it seems that Charlotte has always wanted to teach little William to be a real nobleman.So it seems that this girl is really not as simple as her appearance.Catherine was too headstrong to see anything.

But Mrs. Elisa would not say these words, but had a few more conversations with Sir William.At this time, Charlotte, mother and son had already walked this way, and Charlotte thanked Sir William again, and now Sir William could no longer act like a father to his daughter, just shaking his head: "No, no, Xia Lotte, you don't have to thank me, in fact, Little William is a very lovable child."

"Really? Little William." Sir William looked at Little William while he was talking, Little William smiled and showed some white front teeth: "Yes, grandpa, you have treated me very, very well." Sir William bowed.

After some red tape, Charlotte took her son back to his room.The children's room is very beautifully decorated, all the furniture is suitable for little William's figure, and there is a cabinet full of toys, Charlotte sat down on the chair and watched Little William take down a children's book from the small bookshelf. After reading the book, he asked Little William: "Honey, what have grandparents and grandparents said to you these days?"

Little William put down the children's book in his hand, and came to Charlotte's side: "Mom, grandpa and grandma all told me to please Earl Max, and," Little William frowned, "and don't mess with Ellie." Madame Sacred is angry, and they say it won't do you any good to make Lady Elisa angry."

"Then are you willing to listen?" Little William didn't expect Charlotte to ask such a question, and his brows frowned even tighter: "But Mom, didn't you say before that you want me to treat them the same way as before, not in such a trembling way?" Please."

"Yes, my son." Charlotte was very happy that Little William still remembered what she said, and squeezed his little hand tightly: "I know that there are often natural conflicts between stepfather and stepson, but you Remember, it is wrong to blindly please or blindly contend, first of all, he is my husband, and then your stepfather."

Little William nodded half-comprehensively, and Charlotte held her son's hand even tighter: "My dear, I hope you can become a person with extensive knowledge and a broad-minded heart, instead of thinking of pleasing you all the time. Someone who gains benefits for others and then loses benefits because of it.”

"I understand, Mom, I will be myself, just like before!" Little William's words seemed very solemn, Charlotte touched her son's head and smiled gratifiedly, Little William bit his lip and continued: "Mom, grandpa and grandma also said that in the future, when Earl Max has his own child, maybe he will ignore me and ask me to..."

Charlotte could hear the grievance in her son's words, so she patted his head: "Honey, if the earl and I have our own children in the future, they will also be your younger brother and sister. You don't need to wrong yourself to please They, but take care of them, like a big brother, remember, you are my son, you don't need to be wronged in every possible way to make ends meet."

After finishing speaking, Charlotte paused: "Of course, my dear, you can't do anything wrong. You know, you are my son, and you are destined to become a real gentleman." Little William nodded solemnly again, and stretched out his arms to hug Charlotte. neck, Charlotte patted her son on the back.

There was a knock on the door, and then Earl Max opened the door: "Well, is your parent-child time over yet? Lunch is ready."

Charlotte looked at Earl Max: "Count, you came just in time, our parent-child time has just ended." Earl Max walked up to Little William and stroked his head: "So, Little William, I know you want to call me Father's words will be difficult to export, but I will treat you as my son."

"Thank you, Earl!" Little William looked up at Earl Max with his blue eyes. Charlotte guessed what he had just said when she heard this sentence. I'm afraid Earl Max has heard a lot, but Earl Max can do this. Charlotte was still very happy to express her opinion. She held William's hand: "Then, let's go to lunch now. Remember, you can be a gentleman only by being brave and fearless."

Little William nodded, Earl Max smiled again, and led Little William and Charlotte out together.

At the lunch table, Little William performed very well, which made Mrs. Alyssa nod secretly in her heart. Moreover, Mrs. Alyssa should have had grandchildren long ago, but because Mrs. Anne was stillborn, she was allowed to hold grandchildren. The grandson's wish ran aground again, and now that William was by her side, Mrs. Alisa hoped that Charlotte would become pregnant as soon as possible and give birth to an heir for the Max family.

Moreover, since Little William is so smart, the child born to Charlotte must be very smart.When Mrs. Alisa thought about it, she was obviously more enthusiastic about Little William than before, which made Sir William a big sigh of relief. His daughter married well and his grandson was accepted, which is so reassuring.
