[Zhongying] Rebirth meets a wizard

Chapter 6 Longbourn's Spring 1

The carriage was moving, thoughts were spreading, and all London was left behind.

Lydia's carriage was in Hertfordshire, and home was at hand.

As they approached Longbourn, spring drew near.

"Mrs. Smith, spring is here..."

Because of the spring scenery and because she will be home soon, Lydia happily shared with her fellow passengers.

………… At the end of winter and beginning of spring three years ago…………

On this day, the Bennet family was rarely quiet, perhaps because the two noisiest young daughters in their family had not yet started their daily routine of laughter.

Apparently this quietness made the three elder Miss Bennet very happy.

Only Katie anxiously searched for her little sister. As a girl who would steal everyone's attention as soon as she appeared, Lydia always had a strong sense of existence.

I didn't show up earlier today, maybe I slept late, but it's a little unusual that I didn't show up at noon.

Mrs. Bennet went to chat with Mrs. Lucas. Now the Bennet family only has Mr. Bennet who keeps his ears out of the window in the study, Jane and Elizabeth who are doing needlework, and two sisters who are reading books. Mary.

Katie didn't know who to tell about Lydia's abnormality. She knew that, except for her mother and Lydia, her family didn't value her words. When her mother and Lydia were around, she dared to talk and even make noise.

But now she is alone, she shrinks back, not daring to disturb the three older sisters who form a circle of their own.

After walking around upstairs and downstairs several times, Katie decided to go see Lydia by herself. Without her mother and Lydia, she felt that she had no one to talk to.

After knocking on the door with no response, Katie opened the door to Lydia's room, which was dimly lit with the curtains drawn.

I don't know if it was Katie's delusion, she always felt that the temperature in the room was a little low, and she actually felt her scalp shivering.

But obviously Lydia was lying on the bed very peacefully, with an expression of An Ran that would never appear on her face, but it was so peaceful that it was almost impossible to notice the ups and downs of her chest.

Katie hesitated for a moment, glanced at the normal room, and walked quickly to Lydia's bedside, trying to wake Lydia up.

Lydia, who was woken up by someone, opened her eyes with difficulty, unable to hold back the feeling of exhaustion, and slowly closed them again.

"Lydia! What's the matter with you?"

There was a voice in the direction of pushing her, very excited and shrill, and Katie was already a little panicked after calling many times to no avail.

As if she had slept for too long, Lydia blinked, and slowly, her blurred vision became clear. She stared blankly at the strange yet familiar roof, unable to react.

"Li... Di... Ya..."

After calling many times to no avail, Katie's voice was already crying. She was terrified, and found that Lydia's face was so pale, completely different from the usual domineering girl.

"This is... where?"

Lydia hadn't recovered her senses, she blurted out her question instinctively, but her voice was so low and hoarse.

Katie obviously didn't hear Lydia's doubts clearly. She saw Lydia's weakness, which made her at a loss.

She is Lydia's older sister, and this is the first time she realizes that Lydia is her younger sister, the vulnerable little sister in the family, when she is just over a year older.

Lydia's voice was barely audible, and her face was pale.

Katie finally realized that Lydia's abnormality came from physical discomfort. Given that Lydia was usually healthy and active, it was especially surprising that she was weak and pale now.

"Lydia...wait a minute, I'll go find my mother!"

Katie went downstairs crying to find someone.

Leaving Lydia weakly giving up supporting her eyelids in the dim room, letting her consciousness enter the darkness again.

Seeing Katie running downstairs and hearing her weeping words, the first reaction of the three older Miss Bennet was that Katie was angry with Lydia and cried again, and such things did not happen But it was the first time that Katie cried so frightenedly.

Putting down the things in their hands, the three sisters stood up and surrounded Katie.

"Katie, dear, what's the matter?"

The first to speak was Elizabeth who responded the fastest.

"Woooo... Lydia... Ya... Woooo..."

The panting from running downstairs and the excitement made Katie short of breath, and her speech was broken and difficult to distinguish.

"Speak slowly, don't cry yet."

Gently patted Katie on the back, and Jane comforted her softly.

Mary frowned slightly, her face was a little serious, but she held Katie's hand with concern in her eyes.

"Woo...I'm so scared...and worried...Lydia...she can't wake up no matter how much she screams, and her complexion is also very bad...I don't know what's wrong with her..."

The heartbeat brought by Katie running down the stairs and the panic about Lydia's condition made her speech intermittent, barely expressing her concern for Lydia.

"

Lydia may not have woken up yet, let's go and see her together. "

Jane and Elizabeth looked at each other. They remembered that Lydia and Katie were running and making noise yesterday, and they didn't believe Katie's words. In the end, Jane spoke softly to comfort her.

"No! No! Looking for a mother... Lydia needs a mother."

Still a little out of breath, Katie got up excitedly and was going to find Mrs. Bennet.

"I'll go, Katie, you and your sisters go and see Lydia, and I'll go and see Mom."

Mary stopped Katie.

"Yes, Katie, let Mary go."

Jane gently stroked Katie's head.

Mary pulled her skirt and walked out the door quickly.

"I'll go up and check on Lydia first. You've never been in good health. Jane is here to accompany you."

Elizabeth looked at Katie, who was flushed from panting, and told her to sit down and calm down

Seeing Jane comforting Katie, Katie sat obediently beside Jane, and Elizabeth carried her skirt up the stairs. She was a little worried, but doubts and mistrust accounted for more of it.

The door of Lydia's room was ajar. Elizabeth pushed the door open and saw Lydia lying quietly on her bed.

Subconsciously stepping lightly, Elizabeth stood in front of the bed. Lydia's pale face made her really start to worry. At first, she thought it was Lydia's new prank, which scared Katie, but now she couldn't help it. I thought so.

Katie was right this time, something was wrong with Lydia.

Bending down to brush away the hair on Lydia's forehead, and putting her hand on her forehead, Elizabeth felt that the skin under her hands was not hot after a fever, on the contrary, Lydia's body temperature was a little too low, and she felt a feeling of being wet when she touched the rain. The feeling of the back leaves is slightly cool.

Elizabeth took her hand away, and Lydia was still lying quietly on the bed, not responding to her movements.

Frowning and thinking for a moment, Elizabeth went downstairs to find the servant and told him to invite the doctor.

Katie, who noticed her action, immediately stood up, crying,

"Liz, does Lydia need a doctor? Is she serious?"

"Katie, don't get excited, Lydia doesn't have a fever, she called the doctor just to be on the safe side."

Elizabeth comforted Katie, but her frowning made her words less convincing.

Katie believed in her sister, and she was no longer so nervous when she heard the comforting words. Following Jane's movements, she sat down again.

Jane is not Katie, she and Elizabeth exchanged a look, knowing that Lydia is really all right, her heart sank.

The three sisters were thinking about each other, and they were quiet for a while.

Jane gently took Katie's hand to comfort the younger sister.

Elizabeth went upstairs again. Instead of going directly to Lydia's room, she went to Mr. Bennet's study.

"Father!"

Elizabeth knocked on the study door.

"Come in!"

Recognizing the voice of his second daughter, Mr. Bennet put down the book in his hand.

"My dear Liz, are you here to borrow a book?"

Mr. Bennet asked with a smile when he saw his favorite daughter approaching him.

"Dad, I'm afraid it's not for that. Lydia is unwell."

Elizabeth explained the purpose of her visit, speaking at a slightly fast pace.

"Lydia? Is your mother not here?"

Mr. Bennet suppressed his smile.

"Father...mother is at Sir Lucas's, she said it at the breakfast table!"

Elizabeth reluctantly reminded her father.

"Well, have you seen how Lydia is doing? I remember she was full of energy yesterday."

Mr. Bennet put away the books he hadn't finished reading, got up and prepared to visit his little daughter, and asked Elizabeth as he walked out of the study.

"I don't know about it, but Papa! I'm afraid Lydia is really sick, and not pretending."

Elizabeth quickly followed her father.

"Then it would be better to call in Dr. Brown."

The father, who was not slow in his steps, walked faster.

"I've sent for it, Dad."

Elizabeth trotted to keep up.

"Mary has gone to see her mother, too."

"very good!"

Mr. Bennet said no more.

He soon arrived at Lydia's room, and without knocking on the door, Mr. Bennet opened Lydia's door at once.

The room was still the same as it was when Elizabeth left. Lydia was still lying quietly on the bed, and the room was still dim.

"I don't have a fever, but why is my face so pale?"

Mr. Bennet also felt the temperature of Lydia's forehead with his palm, and then he was as puzzled as Elizabeth.

"And the temperature is still too low."

Elizabeth couldn't help but whisper like her own father.

"Lydia! Lydia..."

Mr. Bennet tried to wake the younger daughter.

Elizabeth frowned, watching Lydia's reaction worriedly.

After a while, Lydia slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the ceiling without focus, as if she hadn't woken up, and she was stunned as if she had slept for too long.

"How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"

Mr. Bennet was somewhat pleased to see Lydia wake up.

Seeing that Lydia didn't respond, Elizabeth called her name: "Lydia... are you okay?"

"Where...here is..." Lydia felt confused, "what happened...what happened?"

She suspected that she was dreaming, dreaming about the room when she was young and about her father and sister who cared about her, but how could it be possible, she had clearly reached the end of her life, only 25 years old, but it was hard to recover.

"You may be ill. It doesn't matter. Your mother and the doctor will be here soon."

Mr. Bennet replied to the bewildered younger daughter, thinking she was puzzled by her discomfort.

Elizabeth patted Lydia's head and nodded to her, affirming her father's words.

"Mom... will Mom come over?"

Lydia shed tears when she heard her mother coming over. Will this doting woman come to see her, and not let her go to see God alone, Lydia thought not soberly.

At the beginning of this warm and cold spring, Lydia opened her eyes again, and she became what she was when she was 12 years old.
