Countess of Pride and Prejudice

"Then what should I do? Henry, even you don't want to help me, have you given up on me?" The tears in Louise's eyes fell on her face. She was born beautiful, and crying like this is pear blossom with rain .

Count Max reached out to wipe the tears off Louise's face: "Louis, remember when we were young? At that time you always said that you want to travel around the world and you have to be fearless. But now, Louise, do you remember?"

"That's because I..." Louise shook her head, wanting to object to Earl Max's words, Earl Max smiled slightly: "Louis, you understand, you understand that although the world has changed, as long as you are still brave , then you have to face it. Louise, those ten years have already destroyed your faith, do you want it to destroy you again?"

"But, I have nowhere to go, I'm fed up with their eyes, and those disgusting men, Henry, only you have not changed."

Louise's words made Earl Max take a step back. He looked at Louise and shook his head: "Louise, I'm married now. Louise, you can't rely on your beauty to get benefits."

This sentence made Louise's face change, and she lowered her head not to look at Earl Max.Earl Max still looked at her, and it took a long time for Louise to look up and look at Earl Max: "Are you trying to drive me away?"

"It's not like that, Louise, but I want to tell you that if you give up on yourself and destroy yourself like you are now, no one can save you. Louise, what a brave girl you were once, and now you are This, rather than getting used to that, or what I say next may be too offensive, but Louise, I also want to say it, that is, relying on beauty, showing off, and getting benefits. Louise, Byrne The Marquis has been dead for half a year, don't let his shadow hover in your life anymore."

"What do you know? What exactly do you know?" Louise's voice was a little sharp, she looked at Earl Max, but there were no tears in her eyes: "I am no longer pure, and I am no longer the most loved one in Woodville, the most beloved in the county. Beautiful girl. Henry, I have fallen into hell, but I cannot get out of hell."

"You can, Louise, you can, if you want, instead of letting jealousy destroy you, Louise, listen to me, you are only 31 years old, and you have a lot of money, go to a strange place , to live a new life away from those who want your money like vultures."

"Are you going to exile me?" Louise's voice was still sad, Earl Max shook his head: "No, Louise, I am not exiling you, but want to tell you that no one can destroy your heart except you Own!"

Louise just shook her head desperately as if she hadn't heard this sentence. Earl Max looked at Louise and sighed softly.In this matter, no one else can help her except herself.People who have fallen into hell, if they are unwilling to get out of hell, even if hell disappears, they will only sink into hell forever.

"Yes, dear, this is a very nice drawing!" Charlotte kissed little William, who kissed his mother in turn, and said, "Mom, when the baby comes out, I'm going to draw him too." superior."

"My dear, you are wonderful." Charlotte kissed her son again.

"Ah, Earl, can you come and see how good my drawing is?" Little William saw Earl Max walking in, holding a drawing board and asking for credit.Four people were drawn on the drawing board, and Earl Max forced himself to put his mind into it, and asked Little William, "This one with very white hair is Mrs. Elisa?"

Little William tried to nod: "Yes, look, Earl, the one sitting with mother is you, and I am here!" Earl Max patted Little William's hand approvingly: "Very good, your drawing is very good , now, go and show the painting to Mrs. Alisa."

Little William said goodbye politely, and went out holding the drawing board.Then Charlotte said: "You and Louise, the conversation is not going well."

Earl Max rubbed his eyebrows with his hands: "Yes, Charlotte. Sorry, I always feel that I am omnipotent, but the facts tell me that I am not such a person."

"Seeing you who are always proud say such things, should I be happy or sad?" Charlotte's words made Earl Max laugh again: "Are you mocking me, madam?"

Charlotte nodded: "Yes."

Earl Max smiled helplessly, and Charlotte looked at her husband: "But my dear, even if you don't know what happened to Louise, but if you want to save a drowning person, you must first ensure that you will not be drowned." He pulled into the water together."

"That's what your grandmother said too?" Earl Max raised his eyebrows.

"Of course, my grandmother has lived for nearly 70 years, she is the queen..." Charlotte felt that she had slipped her mouth, and immediately stopped talking.

"Queen?" Earl Max had already heard the word: "So, there will be a queen in England in the future, but..."

"No, no, Count, I have said enough. Anyway, I can only tell you that my grandmother is the most intelligent lady I have ever met. Therefore, she can be the head of the court. Of course, She educated us very well. But I never thought that there would be such an experience."

This kind of conversation is normal, Earl Max smiled: "If one day, I can see her, maybe I can ask her for advice." Charlotte smiled: "Sorry, Earl, you can't see her. Now I Let someone send you some dessert, so as to comfort your frustrated heart that you didn't succeed in persuading Louise."

"Thank you, indeed, having a wife is much better than being a bachelor." Earl Max said very relaxedly. Charlotte rang the bell and called the maid to bring a dessert.

After the maid retreated, the butler knocked softly on the door: "Count, Madam, the Marchioness of Bonn wants to see Madam." Count Max was a little surprised, but said to the outside: "Please come in, Madam."

The butler has already walked in: "But the count, the Marchioness said that she wishes to see the lady alone." See alone?Earl Max frowned, this is not a good idea, especially when Charlotte is three months pregnant, what if?

Charlotte had already guessed what the housekeeper and Earl Max were thinking, and hurriedly said: "Please come in, the Marquis de Berne. I think it would be better for women to discuss matters between women's families."

That being the case, Earl Max got up and left. Louise passed him by the door. Charlotte looked at Louise's red and swollen eyes and stood up to greet her: "Please do it, madam!"

Since Louise doesn't like being called the Marquise of Berne, it's best to use the most common tone of address.Hearing that Charlotte changed her address, Louise let out a long breath, then looked at Charlotte: "You are a very smart person."

"That's only because my experience has taught me this, ma'am!" Charlotte saw that the dessert had been served, and picked up a piece for Louise to taste.

"This kind of muffin was liked by the old Earl. He had been to America, so he liked this kind of food very much." Louise put down the muffin after only one bite.

"It sounds like you and the Max family are very familiar."

"Yes, including Annie!" Seeing Charlotte looking at herself in surprise, Louise smiled: "We have known Annie since we were young, but I don't like her, she has freckles all over her face, but Annie is very like me."

That's it, Charlotte nodded: "These earls have never told me about it."

"So I always thought that between you and the earl..." Louise hesitated to speak.

"You want to say that I'm just lucky, don't you?" Charlotte pierced Louise's thoughts in one bite, and Louise's always proud face showed a hint of embarrassment, and then she nodded.

"If, I mean, ma'am, when you were called the most dazzling pearl in London, you suddenly came to another world, a widow without property, with a son who was dying to be fed, and of course, very beautiful. Ordinary, so madam, what do you think?"

Although Charlotte knew that this sentence should not be said like this, Charlotte still didn't know why she should say this sentence.

This surprised Louise: "Countess, are you telling me a novel?"

"Yes, this is a story I have read." Charlotte said this without blinking, and Louise smiled: "Since it is a novel, there is nothing to discuss, but the Earl Ma'am, what happened to me is real."

"But this is not a reason for you to give up on yourself, ma'am!" Charlotte's words were almost exactly the same as Earl Max's words, which made Louise a little angry and snorted.

Regardless of what Louise was thinking, Charlotte went on to say: "The protagonist in the book does not exile himself, but lives hard, uses the income left by the meager property, and thinks that one day he can return to the original place." world."

"Is there love?" said Louise suddenly, which made Charlotte nod: "There is love, but unfortunately, an arrogant fellow is in love with her and wants to use his position to force her to accept it, and She declined."

"This fool!" Louis commented without any surprise.

"Yes, everyone said that this girl is stupid, but this girl said that people must have faith after all. If you easily succumb to the other party because of the other party's status and don't work hard, it will not work!"

"Then what happened afterwards?" Louise seemed to be moved, asking about the story behind.
