When Elizabeth arrived at Netherfield Manor, there were only three men in the hall, Mr. Darcy, Mr. Louisa, and Mr. Hearst, and Charles had been cast by Caroline to supervise the kitchen, while she had called for someone to fetch the medicine after Miss Jane Bennett had gone to sleep.

Louisa's gaze swept over the girl at the door, and saw that the hem of her skirt was covered with mud and there was still some sweat on her head, so she pursed her lips disdainfully, and didn't even bother to say hello.

Mr. Darcy froze a little when he saw Elizabeth, and he pursed his lips over her dress, and did not speak.

There was an eerie silence in the hall, and finally Elizabeth spoke first, "Excuse me, is my sister Jane here?" ”

Charles, who was in the kitchen, heard her voice and immediately poked his head out, "Ah, is it Miss Elizabeth!?" You've finally arrived! - Oh my gosh, what's going on? Did you fall on the road?! ”

Elizabeth waved her hand awkwardly and glanced at the people in the hall, "No, you misunderstood sir, I was just worried about Jane, and the carriage and horses at home were not free, so I walked over." ”

Luisa exclaimed, "God, that's three miles!" He shook his head as he spoke, as if he were looking at something incredible.

Darcy's face tensed, he himself did not have a good impression of the Bennett family, so it seems that although their young lady has some wisdom, her personal cultivation is still too bad.

When he was about to withdraw his gaze, he inadvertently glanced at Elizabeth, and the other party's big eyes were as bright as fire that made his eyelids jump, and an inexplicable feeling suddenly rose in his heart.

Darcy frowned, stood up and walked out of the hall.

Elizabeth pretended not to have heard Louisa's words, and she had already seen at the ball that the eldest lady of the Bingley family had no good opinion of her, and of course, Jane.

So when she received the letter from the Bingley family, Elizabeth hesitated for a while, whether she should let Jane go to Netherfield alone, for the sake of the second lady of the Bingley family, she was a little relieved, at least, the young lady would not embarrass her sister.

Charles took Elizabeth upstairs to see Jane, she had taken medicine and drank oatmeal, she had fallen asleep, although her body was still feverish, but her face was much better than that Charles had seen in the morning, and Elizabeth was a little relieved.

On the other side, Caroline was about to go back to the hall from the backyard to see if Elizabeth had arrived, but happened to bump into someone who was supposed to be in the dining room on the way, "Mr. Darcy? Why are you here? ”

Seeing the young lady opposite, Darcy paused, "Miss Caroline." ”

"Did you come for me?" She was puzzled, "Ah, could it be that someone from the Bennett family has arrived?" ”

Darcy hesitated, he didn't mean to inform Caroline, but in the end, he nodded, "Yes, that second lady of the Bennett family, Elizabeth Bennett, is here, and she should be watching her sister now." ”

"Whew, that's good." Caroline breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and smiled at Darcy, "Now just wait for Miss Jane to get better!" Mr. Darcy, shall we go to breakfast? "She's dying of hunger, okay _(:зゝ∠)_

Darcy nodded unconsciously at Miss Caroline's gray-green eyes, and the inexplicable weirdness in his heart was suddenly soothed, and he followed Caroline's footsteps, walked to her side, and returned to the restaurant side by side.

"Miss Bennett." When Caroline and Darcy returned from outside, everyone except Jane gathered in the dining room, and they were attracted by the two of them, and they all looked up.

Elizabeth blinked when she heard the other person calling herself, stood up and nodded at Caroline, "It's Miss Bingley, thank you, about my sister." ”

Immediately understood that the other party was referring to helping Jane cool down this morning, and Caroline also laughed, "After all, I invited Miss Jane as a guest, and if I get sick here, I won't feel good." ”

"Miss Caroline Bentley is a generous lady." Elizabeth accentuated the three words Caroline, and glanced at Louisa, who was sitting opposite and had already started to enjoy breakfast.

Feeling a little embarrassed for a moment, Caroline glanced at Mr. Darcy beside her, and saw that he seemed to be unresponsive to this, so she sat down and began to eat breakfast.

"Hmph, some young ladies really should learn how to eat in such a place." Louisa elegantly cut the food on the plate, looking at Elizabeth's not reckless but noble and inadequate eating, and her heart felt a pang of disgust.

She admits that she just doesn't like these strange people coming into their home, is the Bentley house some kind of shelter!? Where did the vulgar lady come from, can she marry in at will?!

Don't think she doesn't know, what are these people's hearts, don't they just want to be Charles's wife?! Without the consent of her sister, she will see who would dare!

The more she thought about it, the more confident she became, Louisa quietly glared at Elizabeth, but she didn't expect to be discovered by Caroline, she glanced at her sister with a headache, touched her leg lightly, and motioned her to say less.

That's for the sharp-toothed young lady, Luisa, if you're attacked, I can't say anything about her_(:зゝ∠)_

"Miss Elizabeth, please relax, your sister won't run." Caroline glanced over her eyes and saw Elizabeth tugging at the plate with her shoulders stretched and pulling at the plate, and said jokingly.

Elizabeth was stunned, and nodded uncomfortably after seeing Caroline's polite expression, "Yes, I think so." ”

She had a strong sense of self-esteem, but that did not mean that she could not accept the kindness of others, and Elizabeth could see that this Miss Caroline was really not hostile to herself, unlike her sister, who seemed to have relegated them to "unseemly young ladies who stammered with their own brother."

To be honest, she's really a little worried about Ji Young.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Elizabeth looked at the sky and was about to leave, because Jane's temperature had almost dropped, but she was still sick, and she felt that with the people of the Bingley family to take care of her, nothing serious should happen.

Caroline thought about it, and felt that there was really nothing wrong, and was about to let the carriage take her back, but Jane said that she was reluctant to leave, and Elizabeth had no choice but to say embarrassedly if she could stay for a few more days.

People who are sick have a bit of privilege, Caroline nodded happily in agreement, "Just invite the two of you to be guests, anyway, the temperature is just right after the rain in the past two days, you can walk here." ”

So all afternoon, Elizabeth was with Jane, and Charles looked at the door depressedly for a long time, thinking that it seemed very bad to disturb the conversation of other sisters, but it was obvious that he wanted to invite Miss Jane, and the last time he stayed together was less than an hour, which was too embarrassing!

"Charles, if you have such leisure, why don't you go and help Claude the gardener repair the garden!"

Charles:...... QAQ you bully me too

###

At dinner, Jane showed her face and apologized, Charles said it didn't matter, he just hoped that Jane would take care of herself, and then made the other party blush.

Caroline twitched the corners of her mouth, suppressing the desire to complain. Hope, I can't see it, Charles, you are still a master of flirting with girls, if you are so good at routines, why don't you try it on Miss Sara?

After dinner, Jane went back to her room to rest, and Elizabeth followed her to accompany her, saying that it would be fine for the two of them to live in the same house at night, and there was no need to clean up.

As soon as the Bennett sisters returned to their room, the whole estate seemed to be back to its former state, Mr. Hearst and Louisa went to rest, Charles was either dealing with the affairs of London or studying where to rest the next day, and Caroline and Darcy occupied a sofa alone, and Miss was reading a book, and Mr. was writing a letter.

"Did you hear from Georgiana?" Caroline wondered as she saw Darcy take out a new piece of letter and prepare to reply.

"Yes, I received it last night." Speaking of his sister, the man's cold face softened a lot, "She said she missed you, and when she gave up her pretense and said that she wanted to play with Miss Caroline." ”

"Oh, don't say it, I really miss her, how are you doing at school?"

"Georgiana is well adapted, and it's nice to have a servant with her."

Caroline nodded and continued reading.

Mr. Darcy, on the other side, picked up the pen and thought for a long time, but did not put it down, and finally sighed, put down the pen and the letter, and sat down opposite Caroline, and then ...... Start in a daze.

It's nothing, the key is sir, can you not stare at me in a daze! It's scary!

After enduring it for a long time, Caroline finally put down the book in her hand unbearably, "Mr. Darcy, what's wrong with you?" ”

"What?"

"You seem to have something on your mind, and if you don't mind, I can be a listener, or I don't know what to do."

Darcy: "......"

Caroline understood, and stood up to go back to her room, which should mean ignoring it.

"Wait—Miss Caroline."

"Huh?" She raised an eyebrow, "Sir, it seems that he still needs an audience." ”

Darcy furrowed his brows, and his whole face was still so deep and three-dimensional, and it was not good to say. "Miss Caroline, I do have something on my mind."

Caroline looked deaf.

"But I don't know what I'm thinking."

"...... "Fool me?"

"What do you think...... What kind of person is Miss Elizabeth Bennett? ”

Aha! Plot! A long-lost plot!

A woman's eyes lit up and swept Darcy's face like a searchlight, but nothing but confusion and nothingness.

I said, sir, you have at least a little bit of falling in love before I can believe Aunt Austin's script! Worried, gloomy, joyful, sweet, curious, and ambiguous, even if you give a "Lao Tzu likes you is your honor", I can accept it!

But what the hell are you looking at at a loss......

You're going to give some reaction, hey! Caroline licked her lips and narrowed her eyes, "Why do you ask that, sir?" Did you find anything different from Miss Elizabeth? ”

Darcy continued to be dazed, although his expression looked very formal, but the eyes that did not deceive revealed the inexplicability of his heart, he really felt very weird, very strange.

"Eyes ......"

Caroline's heart jumped, here it is, here it is, here the beautiful big eyes are!

I only heard Mr. Darcy say, "Do you remember Leo?" ”

The horse that almost killed himself?

"Miss Elizabeth's eyes are very similar to Leo's."

Caroline: ......

- Sir, if you are like this again, there is no lady who will like your QAQ
