She and her husband, Mr. Hurst, had been living with her brother, but she wanted to please the housekeeper's younger sister.

"Of course." Caroline glanced at her sister proudly. She must not be like her sister, marrying a worthless husband, and living with her mother's family after marriage.Darcy is a friend of his brother, rich and beautiful, he will be taken down by himself one day!

Of course, the Bennet sisters who were being ridiculed didn't know, otherwise they would have to quarrel, and reading so many books was just that useful.After Jane had a rest, she also came to Mary's place. The sisters had lunch in the room and each took a book in the afternoon. There was not much gossip about Longbourne.And while chatting, Jane found that she was either scolding Mr. Bingley with her third sister, or scolding Mr. Darcy with her second sister.

"Mary, look, here is Mr. Ghost's book. It's convenient to come from London, and you can't even buy it in Longbourne." Elizabeth said happily holding a beautifully printed book.

"Uh..." Mary touched her nose guiltily. It seemed that the sisters didn't know that they were ghosts, so they said they were dead now. "Then Lizzie, take a good look."

But Grandpa Brown, when was my book published?I do not know how?Don't think that with Granny Smith's backing, I just... well, I really dare not make a mistake.Mary complained while reading a book.

At dinner, because of politeness, Elizabeth and Jane had to go down with the host, leaving Mary alone, so lonely.Mary quickly finished her meal, ignored the maid's obstruction, put on the clothes Elizabeth brought, and went downstairs in a hurry.

Elizabeth and Jane were really worried, but Mary, who couldn't speak coquettishly, let her go.It was also because Mary had been staring at them while they were eating. Mary was sick and was eating bland liquid food, which made dinner at Bingley's house much faster than before.

25 Sherlock Holmes Darcy

It's already winter, and there are no good entertainment measures at night. It's nothing more than sitting around a warm fireplace and doing some pastimes.Mr. Hurst, who had always been drowsy, suddenly regained his vigor, and set up the card table, which was his favorite amusement.

"Do you want to play cards?" Caroline asked out of politeness, but actually she didn't want the ladies of the Bennet family to agree.She hoped that Darcy could come to play together and get closer.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'll take care of Mary, and you can just play." Jane replied softly, with a smile on her face that Caroline couldn't fault.

Elizabeth held Mary, who was eager to try, and warned her to be honest, and then rejected Caroline's proposal, saying that she could read the book by herself.Mary rubbed Linda listlessly, but Linda was too tired from hunting today, so she didn't have the energy to play with Mary, so she lay lazily beside her.

Darcy never liked this kind of entertainment to pass the time, he would rather read more books.Moreover, Miss Mary's understanding has not yet been obtained. This is a good opportunity to chat and get to know each other better.Immediately afterwards, Feng also rejected the suggestion of playing cards. Bentley saw that the two friends had rejected, and he also chose to sit by the fireplace and chat.

Caroline held the cards fiercely, Bennet's sisters are really good, it's fine if they don't play by themselves, none of them play with Darcy.Obviously, Caroline vented her anger.

Bingley didn't feel his sister's anger, and was still excitedly talking about the hunting process during the day, praising Linda's bravery and invincibility, and then asked pitifully: "Miss Mary, your Linda really can't be sold to Me? I really like Linda too much."

"I didn't expect Linda to be so powerful." Mary gently stroked Linda's head as a reward, "But if you want to buy our Linda, there's no way!"

"Brother, three are missing and one is missing, come here quickly..." Seeing that Bingley was still talking happily, Caroline was furious, and at the end of the sentence, she could already hear the sound of gnashing of teeth.

When Bingley heard it, it was over. Caroline would only call her "brother" when she was very angry, and she would usually call her "Charles".Bingley turned his head stiffly, and it turned out that Caroline's face was darkened, so she hurriedly left and went to the card table, and Mr. Hester was already urging her.

Seeing Bentley come over to play cards honestly, Caroline felt a little relieved.She was also in the mood to ridicule Bennet's ladies, this time Caroline picked Elizabeth who was reading a book, and took the lead in attacking.

"Miss Elizabeth looks down on playing cards. She would rather read novels than play cards. After all, she is a cultured person." Caroline casually sarcastically said while playing cards.

"I dare not take it seriously. I can't claim it. I just look at it in my spare time. I can't compare to Miss Caroline. She is knowledgeable when she plays cards every day." Elizabeth's attack power is not weak, although others have provoked her. Now, not resisting is not Elizabeth's style.

"Indeed, it's rare to see a girl who likes to read books but doesn't like to play cards." Darcy participated in the discussion, but as soon as he finished speaking, he was innocently stared at by Mary, and he didn't know what was going on.

Mary despised Darcy with disgusting eyes, and sat closer to Darcy, and whispered to Darcy: "That's my sister's battlefield, what do you, a big man, get involved with?!" Mary, because of illness, The voice was even softer, with a bit of a nasal sound. It was clearly a warning, but it had a bit of coquettish taste.

Darcy only felt a girl's unique fragrance coming out of her nostrils, as well as the faint milky fragrance of drinking milk all the year round.Compared with those noble ladies wearing pungent perfume, Mary's natural fragrance actually made the old and calm Darcy blush a little, although Darcy's iceberg face was not obvious.

Darcy didn't pay attention to what Mary said, the whole world seemed to only hear his heart beating rapidly in "thump, thump", his always sober head became confused, and he only knew to stare at Mary's black eyes.Darcy said to himself, you are finished, you have been taken down by a little girl who has only seen three times, and this little girl is not even as old as Georgiana.

Inexplicably, Darcy began to condemn himself and forced himself to change his mind.He said to himself, Darcy, look at Elizabeth, she is closer to your age, and she also has black eyes.But soon another voice retorted, those eyes were not as bright and vivid as Mary's.Darcy could pick out [-] shortcomings of Mary, but he couldn't help but justify himself, and still couldn't change his mood at this time.

Of course, Mary didn't know how much shock Darcy had been shocked by her actions, she just touched her cheek with baby fat: "Is there something dirty on my face?"

Darcy realized that his behavior was inappropriate, looked away, and tried to join Elizabeth and their conversation to forget the mood just now.Darcy, calm down, you are not a kid anymore, Darcy warned himself.

The wind took all this into his eyes, and flashed a trace of cruelty.Then asked Mary graciously if she would like some dessert, black tea or something.

"It's a pity. We don't have many books in Netherfield Gardens. It's hard for you to read them with interest. Mr. Darcy's Pemberley Manor has a lot of books. I'm really envious." Caroline took the opportunity to show her understanding of Darcy. I hope that the ladies of Bennet will retreat in spite of difficulties and not come to rob Darcy.

"This is a collection of several generations, and it's not my credit." Even if Mary pinched and scratched at the side, it couldn't stop Darcy's enthusiasm for participating in the discussion.

"Fitzwilliam, don't be humble. Who doesn't know that you have been buying books in London, and your contribution is not small. Isn't the book in Miss Elizabeth's hand the one you bought through your relationship this time?" Bingley played cards. , While exposing the modesty of friends.

Caroline didn't care so much, it was rare for Darcy to seriously respond to her own words, and continued to follow this good momentum: "Mr. Darcy, from spring to now, Miss Darcy should have grown a lot taller, maybe like I'm so tall." After speaking, Caroline glanced deliberately at the petite Mary, and that look seemed to say three words, "little brat".

Mary's hair exploded all of a sudden, and her big eyes kept staring at Caroline, trying to kill her with her eyes.

Elizabeth couldn't help Mary to speak this time. She asked Darcy a little excitedly: "Mr. Darcy, did you buy Mr. Phantom's book? This is really great!" At this time, Elizabeth gave up. Personal grievances.

"Yes, this book hasn't been sold yet, it's just a sample. However, I think your title is wrong, it's not Mr. Ghost, but Miss Ghost." Darcy pursed his lips, and didn't answer Caroline's words. Instead, Elizabeth answered.The leaked information is even more shocking!

"My God, that's really a bold and thoughtful girl." Jane said with emotion.

"What? Have you seen Mr. Ghost?" Elizabeth asked.Mary next to her also looked at Darcy anxiously, for fear that Darcy would reveal her true identity.

"No, this is just my personal speculation." Mary was relieved after hearing Darcy's words. "Although girls generally don't use such a pseudonym, such delicate writing and emotional language have a hint of femininity. Even when ghosts describe grand war scenes, they do not forget the shining points of human nature, making heroes not only She is a hero, and a mortal with flesh and blood. Ghost has ideal views on some things, and has unique expectations for love... So I boldly speculate that Ghost is a girl who has not experienced much in the world."

Everyone, including Mary, was attracted by the eloquent Darcy, Feng cleared his throat to win back Mary's attention
