[Pride and Prejudice] Professional female supporting role

Jane took the medicine prescribed by the doctor and was in good health. She had already started to improve when Elizabeth arrived, but Caroline was very surprised that they decided to leave so quickly.

During lunch, Miss Elizabeth was a little silent. After finishing the meal, she first expressed her thanks to Caroline and Charles, and then proposed to leave in the afternoon.There was a bit of sullenness on her face, and Caroline didn't think it was her own illusion.

Naturally, Charles would not stop them this time, but he did not agree with the two sisters leaving today, "The doctor said that it is better for Miss Jane to move after her fever subsides completely."

But Elizabeth seemed to be determined to leave, and her attitude was even a little tough. Charles was very surprised by this, but he didn't continue to try to persuade her.

Such an unpleasant atmosphere came too suddenly, and Caroline asked carefully when she went to see Jane and walked with Elizabeth.Elizabeth is a stubborn and strong girl, and she overheard their conversation in the lounge today... Caroline thought of her brother and Mr. Darcy's evaluation of them, and it's okay if people close to them talk about it in private It's a big deal, but it's really embarrassing to be heard by the person involved.

She didn't know how to justify for a while, and Elizabeth said bluntly: "If the distinguished gentlemen in the family feel that our girls are clinging, then I am willing to apologize to them on behalf of the family. But in fact, neither Jane nor I The other sisters have no intention of climbing high. I think ordinary gentlemen with easy-going personalities are more suitable for Jane, and my two little sisters are only interested in the militia stationed in Meryton during this period, and I also I have met a new friend. I think he is comparable to me in terms of temperament and family background, and his character is also admirable. Therefore, Mr. Darcy and Brother Ling can rest assured that they will never be as talented as the Bennett family. Girls from mediocre parenting families coveted them! As for the mother...she was just on a whim, after all, Mr. Fu's property status is so high, it is enough to make the wives in the countryside who have never seen the big world and want to marry their daughters. But please Believe me, this is only temporary!"

When Caroline heard this call, she knew that Miss Elizabeth was really angry. If she heard someone commenting on her and her family like this, Caroline would also be angry, so she didn't blame Elizabeth for venting her anger on herself.

And after she finished speaking, she quickly realized her gaffe, and immediately apologized to Caroline. Caroline shook her head to express that she didn't care, and changed the subject: "I think you and Jane should discuss it again. A doctor's order is very necessary, if possible, go home tomorrow?"

"I will discuss it with Jane, thank you, Miss Bingley."

After the two broke up peacefully, Caroline immediately went back to find Charles. There was a very important reminder in Elizabeth's words just now - militia!The militia was not unusual, but this militia, if nothing else, would have had George Wickham, and this Mr. Shit may have succeeded in convincing Elizabeth that Mr. Darcy was a treacherous man.

Charles was not in the room, but Caroline also remembered that about last week, he received an invitation with Mr. Darcy and Richard, and went to the town for a simple dinner party, and that day Card Because Lorraine was angry with Mr. Darcy, she didn't ask about their itinerary... Thinking about it this way, the militia should be Herfordshire, which arrived around that day.

In fact, where George Wickham is has no effect on Caroline, because I have no chance to meet him at all. Where Mr. Darcy exists, how dare Wickham appear?

But thinking that one day in the future Wickham will cause the Bennett family to be hurt and embarrassing, Caroline, as a prophet, feels a little sorry, and this time it is obvious that they will lose Mr. Darcy, a powerful foreign aid. I don't know if old Mr. Bennet can feed the mercenary Wickham.

Caroline thinks that there are two solutions to this matter. One is that the Bennett family has restrained the youngest daughter's behavior since then, so that she has no chance to elope with Wickham; Kem left Hertfordshire. Caroline thought she was incapable of doing this. Maybe she could only turn to Mr. Darcy for help, but she didn't have a reasonable excuse...

So she can only try the first one first.

Fortunately, the final result of the discussion between Elizabeth and Jane was to leave Netherfield the next day, and Caroline would have the opportunity to express her thoughts, but it was easy to think, but when she did it, she realized that she had no position to persuade them Bind Lydia.Because Caroline and Lydia have only met twice, and the other party is a little girl of [-] or [-] years old, it is impossible for Caroline to place too serious accusations on Lydia. What about constraints?

To put it bluntly, because the Bennett family has no intention of marrying the Bingley family, Lydia has nothing to do with her at all.Even if Mrs. Bennet brought the other three daughters to Netherfield to make a fool of herself early the next morning, Caroline still couldn't say unkindly to Jane and Elizabeth, "Your sister is too rude, lock her up soon." Discipline well at home! '

Fortunately, this matter is not imminent. Not long after Caroline finished thinking this way, she unexpectedly ran into the last instigator of the incident——George Wickham.

It was a very sunny afternoon, around four o'clock, the sun was not very strong, and Caroline was walking on the path less than one kilometer away from Netherfield.The environment of this trail is beautiful, and there are many unknown wildflowers blooming along the road. Caroline thinks it is much more interesting than the garden carefully carved by the gardener.

She only discovered this place recently, because Mr. Darcy seems to be very busy recently, and receives many official documents and letters every day. Although she is a little disappointed, Caroline does not want to appear too clingy and ignorant, so she is willing to come here when she is free Take a walk here.

"Miss Caroline, look what kind of flower that is, it's so beautiful!" Elsa sharply saw a clump of blue-purple flowers in full bloom, which was not there when she came the day before yesterday.

"Yeah, it's so beautiful..." Caroline walked quickly, looked at the unknown flowers, and suddenly had an idea: "Elsa, you go back and get a flower basket and scissors, let's pick some tape Go back and put the bottle in."

Women like flowers, and they like to destroy flowers... Elsa thought it was good when she heard it, and she could see Netherfield's house when she turned around here. She ran faster, and it took only six or seven minutes to go back and forth.

After Elsa left, Caroline walked around alone, thinking about how to match it so that the unromantic husband would accept her to put flowers on his desk, because she was too focused, she He didn't notice the undisguised footsteps of the man behind him.

Until that somewhat familiar voice that she had long forgotten called her: "Miss Caroline?"

"Yes, you..."

His voice was very confusing, graceful and polite, so Caroline responded subconsciously, and turned around gracefully, and then she saw a handsome man in a red uniform smiling at her, slightly The slanted sunlight cast from behind him made his face more profound and meaningful.

"It's such a surprise, I actually know your real name!" Wickham curled the corners of his lips a little nastyly: "This is the fourth time we met, miss, isn't our fate deepening?"

Caroline immediately became vigilant. When a person shows his malice in front of you without any scruples, especially if the other party is a tall man, his intentions may be very dangerous.

"Don't be nervous..." Wickham took two steps forward, and found that Caroline was like a frightened bird, and immediately laughed and leaned against the tree trunk next to him: "What can I do to you? The honorable Bentley's family Miss? This is near your residence."

Even though he put on a harmless posture, Caroline still couldn't relax. She tried to say: "It seems that you have already made your own judgment on the previous matter, Mr. Wickham."

"Oh of course, even if I'm a mercenary bastard, I'm not stupid. I'm just curious, why on earth would you do that for Georgiana? To please Darcy?" The expression on his face really Curious and puzzled.

His frivolous tone made Caroline frowned, and Wickham continued when he saw this: "Since you have already done that, why do you have to act like you are inviolable... But you can tell me Such rascals and libertines imply petitioners."

"Let me think about it, what are you looking for in Darcy? A good family background and wealth, of course! And his face?" Wickham touched his face and asked innocently, "I I thought I was the one who liked the ladies more on this point..."

Elsa will return soon, and Caroline just needs to delay for some time, so she retorted with a serious face: "You do have a unique appearance, but it's just a talent, not commensurate with the quality of self-cultivation—already There are too many examples of arrogant geniuses who end up being mediocre, and their appearance is easy to age! What's more, there may be many people who will be fooled by you for a while, but you will be tired if you deceive people with appearances for too long, won't you?"

"Mediocre?" Wickham chewed on the word, and sneered: "Compared to deceiving people, Miss Caroline, you are also a master. I was in Blue Gate before, and I really thought you were in love with me. You want to make a private life with me!"

Speaking of this incident, it's not that Caroline has regretted it... Low emotional intelligence is a flaw, and she will always do some inappropriate things out of impulsiveness, and then think of things that she can't wait to grab the ground with her head.It's just that since it happened, she didn't want to escape, Caroline raised her head slightly: "Perhaps you can praise my outstanding acting skills—this is an indispensable skill in socializing in high society."

"So, what you said that day was completely false, without any sincerity?" Wickham suddenly burst into sadness, like a fragile young man hurt by love, his downcast eyes seemed to be getting closer It rained heavily.

"..." What's the situation? Caroline stared blankly at his sudden change of face.

"You really never fell in love with me, even just for a moment..." Wickham watched her approaching quickly affectionately, and Caroline's heart rang alarm bells, and her whole body was on guard because of the disappearance of the safe distance. He stretched out his hand to himself, and she waved it without thinking.

The snap was extremely loud, and the back of Wickham's white hand turned bright red instantly, his face immediately became grim, and he raised his hand to pinch Caroline's shoulder.

Caroline's heart was beating violently, but she still stepped back and pushed him while insisting: "I'm in love with you? Who do you think you are! Even if you look like Mr. Darcy, I won't be in love with you, you scum asshole!"

"Enough!" She was suddenly pulled into his arms vigorously. Caroline's half-closed eyes were buried in the familiar chest. Her ears could catch the heavy and powerful heartbeat of the other party. The sense of security returned instantly. She couldn't help raising her hands tightly Wrapped tightly around Mr. Darcy's waist.

"It's just a joke!" The anger on Wickham's face disappeared completely, and he put on a harmless and modest smile again.He raised his hands and took two steps back slowly: "As you can see, I didn't meet your Miss Caroline. As an upright gentleman who is more ruthless than your father, Darcy, you You can't just ignore human life and condemn me at will!"

Darcy stared at him sullenly.

"What's more, if I want to do something to her, I can take her away five minutes ago, so I won't take the time to ask someone to deliver a letter to you, let alone make this lady say so many delaying words! I Your Marco is chained behind these trees." Wickham's tone could be called earnest and instructive: "Besides, it is not a good choice to say something that will irritate the villain, my dear lady. "

"Wickham!" Darcy finally warned in a low voice.

"Well well, I forgot for a moment... You know, I'm such a frivolous person, I can't help but praise ladies-they always love such hypocrisy! But Miss Caroline, You are indeed very cute, and this is not my glib."

"Wickham, I remember you promised me that you would not appear in front of Caroline!" Darcy's hugging posture was a little stronger, as if he was silently announcing something.

Seeing his behavior like this, Wickham raised his eyebrows in surprise, as if he didn't expect that Darcy, who has been well-behaved since he was a child, would have such a naive behavior.Wickham smiled playfully: "Yes, I remember! For the sake of the two thousand pounds you wrote me, I will fulfill the agreement." Wickham blinked, this is about Caroline What the young lady's agreement is, only the two of them know it well.

"It's just that as a young girl who has known each other for many years, even if I can't attend your wedding, I should meet your fiancée formally. This idea came to me when I learned that you and the Bingley family happened to live in Hertfordshire I can't hold back anymore."

He ignored Darcy, instead he gave a very standard gentleman's salute, and smiled in Caroline's surprised eyes: "Let's get to know each other again, dear lady! It's the first time we meet, I belong to Darcy... Old friend, George Wickham."

"Whatever your thoughts are, Wickham, it's over!" Darcy interrupted him with a cold face, threatening: "I hope your thoughts like this won't come up again!"

Wickham bowed exaggeratedly, like a comedian on a stage.

Darcy held Caroline's shoulders, turned and left without saying a word, and took two steps forward. Caroline suddenly thought of something. She pulled the fingers of the husband beside her, forcing him to stop before turning. With a serious head, he said: "Mr. Wickham, I know that you are acquainted with the ladies of the Bennett family, but I hope you will not hurt them at any time. They are my friends, and please stop the rumors in Meryton. The behavior of slandering Mr. Darcy! Even if Mr. Darcy doesn't care about these things, I will not ignore them!"

Darcy's eyes softened a bit, even though in his opinion, Caroline's words with her harmless face and voice were not deterrent, but her defense of himself also made him feel soft.

"For the sake of you avoiding what I might regret in the future, in exchange, I promise you that I won't attack the innocent and innocent girl from the Bennett family." Wickham's eyes gradually became empty, and his voice let out a whisper. People can't hear clearly.Perhaps for Georgiana, he always had some affection when he was rational.

The backs of the two drifting away, anyone can see that they are a pair of lovers in love, Wickham shook his head, it seems that Darcy has really found the other half of his life, which is really shocking Sorry news.

But... "Mr. Darcy?" Thinking of Caroline's very natural address, Wickham raised his lips and smiled gloatingly.
