[Pride and Prejudice] Professional female supporting role

Mr. Charles Bingley has been preoccupied since he was eating breakfast. When Darcy ate his last bite of fried egg, he raised his head and found that the gentleman opposite him was still torturing his poor bacon.

"Charles, don't forget we have to meet your two sisters before dinner."

"Oh no!"

I don't know which word irritated poor Mr. Charles Bingley, and he poked his own palm with his silver fork.

Darcy frowned, he thought his thoughts along the way were correct, "Charles, if you don't want me to see your relatives, then I can visit Viscount Caslin tonight, I believe his expression when he dined with me It should be nicer."

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry, Fitzwilliam..." Bingley dropped the cutlery with a troubled expression, and leaned back on the chair reluctantly.

"I can know what made you treat me so suddenly..." Darcy pursed his lips, and it seemed that he had to use a lot of effort to say the word: "Disgusting?"

"No, Fitzwilliam! No!" Bingley argued eagerly, "I believe no one will dislike you. You are so upright, generous and kind. You have a family background and wealth that men envy, and women The flocking... handsome!"

Darcy swears, although Bentley's last compliment was not meant to be sarcastic, it's not much better...

"Charles, you should understand that unless I am sure that I will propose to that lady, I always treat them at a respectful distance."

"Oh yes yes...that's exactly what I was worried about..."

Darcy was about to be driven crazy by him, so he couldn't help asking a little harshly: "Charles, what are you worried about?"

"Fitzwilliam..." Bingley suddenly stared pitifully at Darcy with his beautiful eyes, without any consideration for the other's hair standing up instantly!

"Fitzwilliam, can you promise me that you will not propose to my little Kelly! After all, she is not yet full...Of course, you are a very good man, if you really want...it will take a few days I will marry her again next year, but the premise is that Caroline likes you and is willing to marry you! Oh! I like you..." Bingley's voice became weaker and weaker, and when he said the last few words, his expression was almost perfect. Above is pain.

Darcy felt that he had read so many books for a moment, and he couldn't describe the feeling at this moment!Of course, if he has read even one comic, he should know that his head should be covered with black lines right now =_=

It seems that since Bingley invited himself to visit his two sisters, and he agreed, he was only happy for a moment, and then fell into an uncomfortable emotion (this emotion is called "to my family"). There are complaints about growing up as a girl), and he hasn't even said the catchphrase "My little Kelly said it" for a long time.

"But Charles, Miss Caroline already wants it, she always wants to marry..."

Darcy's words were cut off by his friend's eyes flashing with the words "You are a bad person". If you don't really understand his love and love for Miss Caroline, I'm afraid you really have to doubt whether he is serious about his sister. Feelings that shouldn't be there.

Darcy rubbed his forehead, feeling that today's conversation really shouldn't be going on. With Charles's single-minded personality, he might not get a moment of peace for the rest of the day's journey!really……

"Fitzwilliam, I can't even imagine, what should I do when a brat wants to take my little Kelly away in the future... You know, I have already started thinking about her an hour after I left home, after all my Little Kelly is so cute! What if he treats Caroline badly in the future? If his factory goes bankrupt, or he likes to gamble, or he's a woman-beating beast... oh, I'll definitely challenge him to a duel Yes! Definitely will!"

……

Mr Bingley, our article is really not the British version of "my sister can't be that cute"...

Since his friend was immersed in the painful question of "Miss Caroline is ready to marry" along the way, Darcy was able to get a quiet trip, but the atmosphere was not so good.

On entering London, and walking up James Street, poor Mr. Bingley seemed at last to cheer up a little.After all, no trouble can compare with the happiness of little Kelly who is about to see him.

Darcy looked at his friend's almost instantaneous change of expression, and to be honest, he was really curious about this Miss Caroline whom he had never met.You know, this kind of emotion is very rare for him. For a gentleman with strong self-control, vision and ambition, it is long past time to have an unwarranted sense of curiosity about any lady.

The Bingley mansion is located in the Merilepo area. For the Bingley family who just came from the north, it can be said that they have strong financial resources to settle in this area.After all, London is still a place where the aristocracy gathers together.

"My little Kelly said that the city of London is too crowded, so I think she is only willing to go out for a walk occasionally if she lives near a park." Bingley said with some helplessness: "She is really the worst person I know. Ladies who like to socialize... like you, Fitzwilliam. This is really a big loss for the London society!"

When Darcy saw Bentley beaming again, he kindly didn't deny it.

Suddenly, Bentley clamped his horse's belly and overtook the carriage in front of him.Darcy saw that he landed neatly with a beautiful movement that surpassed his horse riding level. An old butler quickly caught his rein and greeted him with a very loving smile: "Welcome home, my young master!"

"Oh James, I'm so glad to see you so healthy, as if I've only been away for a day!" Bingley gave old James a quick hug. It was only a month in Louisa's letter that he knew that he was over 50 years old. James, [-], fell ill when winter came, which made the whole family very worried.

"Yes yes, thanks to Miss Caroline, you know, no matter what, I am reluctant to leave her and her delightful little kitchen ideas!" The expression on the old butler's face at the moment was too similar to that of Bentley, and he mentioned When it came to Miss Caroline, she was subtly pampered like a father.

Darcy felt that there seemed to be an awkward smell in the air, like the little dessert decorated with white cream that he had always disliked, it was too sweet...

But Bentley obviously belonged to this sweet atmosphere, and the smile on his face became even more cheerful: "James, you must have no idea how much I miss my little Kelly! I don't even want to inspect the property anymore, this one Things always keep me away from home for too long!"

"Master Bingley, think of the velvet, silk lace and black pearls that Miss Caroline likes, I believe you will only do better in the future!" The old butler blinked slyly: "But I have to say, sir, Louisa If Miss knows that you don't miss her, she will be unhappy."

"Got James~" Bingley grinned: "Louisa is so gentle and understanding, she won't blame me for our favorite sister! And I miss her very much, I bought her a new The earrings are in my pocket now!"

After speaking, Bingley couldn't wait to walk in. Darcy was a little infected by his happy mood. He got off the horse, and the corner of his mouth showed a slight arc.

"You must be Mr. Darcy from Derbyshire!" James saluted Darcy gracefully, and then quickly stepped forward to lead the horse for him, with a loving smile on his face like treating a child: "Dinner is ready Well, Mr. Darcy. I trust you will be pleased with what you see!"

Darcy nodded unnaturally. It's been a long time since anyone looked at him like a child...

"Charlie!" The girl's cheerful cry naturally attracted his attention. Darcy looked up and saw a touch of spring green running towards Charles. Bingley opened his arms and lifted the girl high, causing her to shriek slightly. Shouting, the two siblings kissed intimately face to face, anyone could see that their relationship was very good.

"Oh Caroline, have you forgotten what Emilia said, ladies should pay attention to their manners anytime and anywhere!" Then a slightly older lady came up, with the same light blond hair and beautiful blue color as Bentley. Eyes, with great demeanor, he gently hugged Bingley: "Welcome back, dear brother."

Her arrival made the two brothers and sisters who were immersed in the happy reunion look at each other and smiled embarrassingly, so Darcy saw Miss Caroline in the green dress straighten the folds that did not exist on her body, and said with some pretentiousness: "Welcome back, dear brother!"

After I finished speaking, I couldn't help laughing.

"Cough..." As if feeling that he had been ignored for too long, Darcy stepped forward.

Some people seem to be born for attention. He approached step by step, as if every step stepped on the heartbeat of all the women present. He walked not slowly, so many heartbeats gradually accelerated.

Bingley took a step forward calmly, and winked at Darcy.

"Louisa, this is Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy from Derbyshire whom I often tell you about." Bingley held back his smile and was unaccustomed to being polite: "Fitzwilliam, these two are my little sister."

"I have long heard of you, Mr. Darcy." Louisa Bentley didn't know what her brother was doing, but she would not let her family be rude in front of the distinguished guests from Derbyshire. Regardless of Bentley's twisted eyebrows, he would be completely The younger sister who was in the way pulled out and curtseyed to the distinguished guest.

Only then did Darcy take a closer look at Miss Caroline, who was talked about by her friends every day.Completely different from what I imagined, this Miss Caroline is not a beauty that people can't take their eyes off.

The Bingley family are all good-looking, so this young lady seems a bit too ordinary next to her beautiful sister.

She is too petite, not even as tall as her younger sister Georgiana, who is less than 14 years old. The curvature of her cheeks is too soft and not three-dimensional, and her eyes are too big and too round, which makes her look extra childish, not as deep as Bentley's. , the tip of the small nose is slightly turned up, and the lips are also a little water red, a little dull.Her hair is not golden, but a mild fiery red, and it is simply tied high up on the back of her head-this hairstyle looks nondescript, and the skirt on her body is not the popular style that can reveal the beautiful collarbone. Like a conservative oriental collar, it bound her slender neck high.

But it is worth mentioning that her curtsy was so graceful that even the most critical person could not say that this was not a well-bred lady, which was very different from the way she threw herself on Charles before.

At this time Darcy heard her voice, a very soft voice, and she gave him the same feeling as a child.But without the joyful mood, the tone of the voice seemed to be perfunctory.

"Hello, Mr. Darcy."

"Hello, Miss Caroline." Darcy paused, "You know, I've been looking forward to seeing you."

These were obviously some frivolous words, and both Mr. Bingley and Caroline looked at him in disbelief. The former was a little heartbroken, as if he had been betrayed... The latter's eyes were worth pondering. The frightened and suddenly widened eyes left a deep impression on him—he didn’t know that a lady would show such an expression when he deliberately approached, because even when he kept a cold face and made it clear that no one should enter , can't frighten the gallantry of all unmarried girls.

This feeling is really... novel.

Compared to the reactions of the two of them, Luisa was much calmer.After all, Mr. Darcy was a real gentleman, and everything he said seemed so sincere.

"It's really rude to let the guests stand in the hall all the time. Would you like to come to the living room to have a cup of hot tea?" Louisa smiled decently, and Darcy bent her arms kindly: "My pleasure."
