Authors note - "Inspired by Jane Austen's writing style"

A fortunate stroke of serendipity- 

         Branver mansion had been let at last and the Tudor family has inherited it by true serendipity. The Tudor family took their first step in the estate on a brilliant day at the countryside, where spring was graced by green and a certain joyance sprung in the air.

"I have never, in the entirety of my existence in the world seen such a pleasant accomodation before" Remarked Lady Tudor.

"Nor have-", began Mr Tudor but was quite excitedly interrupted by his son.

"What serendipity caused us, the members of the low English society to inherit it?" Asked the child.

"Well, your late uncle and my cousin, Collins had inscribed it in his will."

As fate sometimes lends out an unfortunate hand, Collins had the uh- misfortune of slipping down his library stairs and cracking his skull."

The cause of his death is laughed at by people but very wrongly so.

"Papa, was Uncle Collins the funny one? Who always sent us the stupidest gifts for Christmas? Like the time when he sent us a live turkey?"

"Yes, indeed", He chuckled at his son's innocence. Mr Tudor had a very likeable personality with a mix of humor and wit. He was a handsome man about to enter an even more handsome property.
