Miss King in Pride and Prejudice
Chapter 15|
Facing the obviously curious eyes of Serena and Georgiana, Mr. Black still smiled brightly calmly, "Mr. Darcy is very well informed. He even knew that the Black family and Earl Karenna's family had intended to marry. Unfortunately, Mr. Darcy I left England some time ago, so you don’t know that Countess Karenna is married now, and Lilia and I left England after attending her wedding, so we came late.”
"So that's it. Speaking of which, Lilia, Georgiana and I are still classmates of Countess Karenna, but we didn't have much contact with each other when we were in school, so now we don't even know that she is married." Listening to Mr. Black's talk Countess Karenna, Serena didn't think about it at first, but later realized that this is still a former classmate, but the two of them can't even be counted as acquaintances, so it's no wonder that Lilia didn't mention it in the letter. and.
"I also remember Countess Karenna, is she still so proud and fragile? I remember that she accidentally pricked her hand when she was embroidering. As a result, she turned pale and fainted when she saw her own blood. Of course her face is normal. It's very pale." Georgiana also thought of Countess Karenna, and asked about Lilia who attended the wedding with great interest.
"Georgianna, you are really unkind, but she is still the same. When the wedding was held, I felt that Countess Karenna was about to faint. She was completely pale and delicate. Of course she raised her face I still have the strength." Lilia said that Georgiana was not kind and said excitedly, "By the way, you can't call her Countess Karenna now, she is now Mrs. Leo, the future Leo Countess."
"Ms. Leo would actually choose to marry the mediocre little Mr. Leo instead of the better little Mr. Black. I thought that the title of the Leo family is not a traditional hereditary nobleman with a fief and annuity." Mr. Darcy faced Little Mr. Black seemed to have regained his usual imposing manner.
"Mr. Darcy's memory is correct. Leo's family is also a rising noble, but the advent of love is always a bit inexplicable. Maybe the original Countess Karenna and Mr. Leo fell in love with each other." Little Mr. Black didn't mind at all. Mr. Darcy was vaguely targeting him, even though Mr. Darcy's subtext was that Mr. Black Jr. was not as attractive as a mediocre eldest son who was also a rising aristocrat, but he still smiled, knowing that Mr. Darcy was looking at him, and Mr. Black Jr. was interested He looked at Serena softly, and asked Serena's opinion, "What does Miss Jin think?"
"It's best to have a matching family background and mutual admiration for marriage. I think that's why Mrs. Leo chose Mr. Leo." Serena pretended not to know about the confrontation between the two gentlemen.
"As Ms. Jin said, it is of course the best situation to have both, so if you can only choose one for a while, which is more important?" Mr. Black looked at all the people present and said that he asked all the people present this question.
"Since it was my brother who asked us, brother, you should talk about your own thoughts first." Lilia knew that in England some time ago, her brother was obviously in a bad mood when facing a partner who needed marriage, and now they are all acquaintances , Just let my brother talk about his thoughts.
"If I had to choose one, I prefer love. When the reality is not so severe, a happy marriage can only be achieved if two people are happy." If before, Mr. Black must have preferred family background, but he has been exposed to typical After the London aristocratic woman, the original Countess of Karenna, Mr. Black had no choice but to change his mind. To spend his whole life with such a woman, it must be related to the life and death of the family before he would succumb.
"Brother, you were really frightened by Mrs. Leo, right? I remember you had a bad face some time ago." Lilia looked at her brother who answered seriously with a smile, "I prefer family background, if the object is a person If you have a good family background, then the relationship can be cultivated."
"If it can't be cultivated, I think love is a must in marriage, and wealth and status can be achieved through hard work. Brother, don't you think so?" Georgiana refuted Lilia, and had to say Georgiana and Lilia's thoughts exactly the opposite.
"I agree with Georgiana. Love and sincere love should be the only reason for marriage." Contrary to the expectations of Serena and most people present, Mr. Darcy is completely on the side of love.Serena originally thought that even if Mr. Darcy would prefer love, it was impossible for him to say the word "only".Surprised, Serena didn't see the way Mr. Darcy looked at her when he talked about love and marriage. Of course, both Mr. Black and Lilia saw it, and Lilia raised her eyebrows at her brother.
"I have to say that most of the people present are more romantic people. I also look forward to love, but I am more in favor of Lilia. I am more inclined to find a suitable gentleman to enter into marriage, and I will not insist on finding someone who is like-minded. , It’s too difficult.” Seeing that everyone expressed their views, Serena also expressed her thoughts with her grandfather: it is more important that two families are compatible with each other.
"Then Miss Jin thinks what kind of gentleman is suitable." Mr. Darcy couldn't hide his surprise, and wanted to ask Serena's thoughts further.
Serena didn't expect that Mr. Darcy would ask directly, hesitated for a few seconds, and felt that it was not impossible to say, so she replied: "Actually, it means good character, good family background, not too complicated family, respect my grandfather, and respect me wishes, such a gentleman is suitable."
"Wouldn't it be that my brother is very suitable?" Georgiana checked them one by one after listening, and found that her brother was still very promising.Mr. Darcy couldn't bear to be directly recommended by his sister, and felt a little embarrassed, but he also looked forward to Serena's reaction.
"My brother is also suitable." Lilia, who became very childish whenever she met Georgiana, argued with Georgiana like a toy.Little Mr. Black's state is from watching the play leisurely to being speechless lying on the gun, and his always bright smiling face is a little stiff.
Serena, who was listening to the discussion between the two, actually felt uncomfortable, but she still tensed up and didn't show her embarrassment. Although she felt a little helpless in her heart, she still acted like a lady sitting upright, very calm.
The two men were also helpless, listening with some black lines, because they could only sit awkwardly, the two of them sat upright, and it was not easy for them to interrupt.
"Serina must have other requirements, otherwise there are still too many gentlemen like this." Georgiana was unconvinced, implying that it was Serena who did not say that Mr. Black was nominated for the all-rounder, and she looked at him for confirmation while talking Serena.
"Aren't there many?" Lilia said that Mr. Darcy was shortlisted because of the large number of people.
"The other thing is that he wants to propose to me, and if I don't hate him, my grandfather has to agree." Serena looked at the two friends who continued to make fun of her brother regardless of her brother's face with a smile.
"That's it?" Georgiana asked in disbelief.
"It seems that the problem lies with Mr. Jin." Lilia said with emotion.
"Don't just talk about my marriage, okay? My new store opens the day after tomorrow, so you guys have to join me." Serena felt that it was better not to continue this topic, so she quickly changed the topic.
"I said, why are the clothes you gave us so beautiful? It turned out that you asked for it. Two clothes are like buying us. Georgiana needs at least a few more clothes before we are willing to help, right?" Lilia would naturally I went to cheer, but I deliberately made fun of Serena, and this time I joined forces with Georgiana again.
"That's right, that's right, Lilia and I can't be hired casually. If you don't play with us in Paris, it's not so easy to bribe us." Georgiana also agreed tacitly.
"How can those two ladies be willing to help? I'm pouring tea for the two of you here." Serena also cooperated with the joke of the two of them, pouring tea for both of them, and also said to the two of them who were sitting there silently. The gentleman smiled apologetically and poured tea for them as well. Both gentlemen nodded at Serena to show that it was okay, since their sister was making trouble, they had nothing to do.
The two laughed and quarreled for a while, and the topic turned to Serena's gossip some time ago.
"Serina, I've heard gossip about you everywhere since I arrived in Paris. I know you're not someone who will suffer, but tell us too. After all, it sounds like you've been bullied." Lilia was half joking. half asked with concern.
"It's true that the shop was disturbed by people. It's true that I went to apologize. It's true that I didn't suffer. I ran to Viscountess Philip's house just to apologize, but I blamed him. I left behind the gorgeously wrapped ordinary gift. It's gone." Serena heard Lilia's concern, and explained it briefly, so that everyone wouldn't worry about the inside story.
"The problem is solved now? That terrible Viscountess won't trouble your family anymore, right?" Ever since she heard that Viscountess Philip killed her, Georgiana regarded her as a terrifying villain.
"Yes, the Duke of Lane's family has made it clear that she will not make any more moves." Serena found Georgiana's words to describe the glamorous Viscount Philip very funny.
"It's just that I won't do it again. What are you laughing at? Don't you plan to take revenge?" Lilia is very similar to Serena in terms of protecting her shortcomings. Obviously Lilia is still very angry at Viscount Philip's attack on Serena's shop .
"Of course I want to take revenge, but the duchess told me not to take it to heart, and I can't do it right away, and Viscountess Philip is not easy, I haven't fully thought it out yet." Serena saw Lilia slightly raised From the eyebrows, she knew that she was a little unhappy that she hadn't done anything for so long.
"If you need any help, Miss Jin must tell me, I am very willing to help Miss Jin." Mr. Darcy, who was finally able to pick up the conversation, immediately expressed his willingness to help Serena take revenge on the Viscountess who framed the Jin family.
"Because I just arrived in Paris, Lilia has been a little worried about not being able to help Miss Jin some time ago. If there is anything I need, the Black family can help. Mr. Black also expressed his willingness to help. Not to be outdone. As expected of brothers and sisters, they like to join in the fun just like Lilia.
"Thank you, I thought you would stop me. After all, it's not honorable to take revenge secretly." Serena thought that these gentlemen should not approve of their nonsense.
"Miss Jin thinks too much. It's normal to fight back with an eye for an eye. I fully support Miss Jin." Mr. Darcy seemed to have re-cultivated his ability to speak, and Georgiana had a face of "well said" 'Looking at my brother with that expression.
Little Mr. Black also raised his eyebrows to look at Mr. Darcy who had changed a bit, smiled and nodded to express his agreement with Mr. Darcy's statement, and did not speak again.
"So that's it. Speaking of which, Lilia, Georgiana and I are still classmates of Countess Karenna, but we didn't have much contact with each other when we were in school, so now we don't even know that she is married." Listening to Mr. Black's talk Countess Karenna, Serena didn't think about it at first, but later realized that this is still a former classmate, but the two of them can't even be counted as acquaintances, so it's no wonder that Lilia didn't mention it in the letter. and.
