Miss King in Pride and Prejudice

Serena, who went to bed late due to excitement, woke up early in the morning, even though she was a little sleep deprived, her excitement made her energetic.Suppressing the urge to immediately go to her grandfather and ask her to go to school, Serena had breakfast as usual, and after breakfast went to find him in her grandfather's study, where her grandfather was still working on the paperwork.Serena suddenly thought that she often saw her grandfather dealing with various documents, and his grandfather was not too young, and if she also asked whether it would be too selfish to leave her grandfather to study in London, would it be too lonely for her grandfather to be alone.

Thinking of this, the excitement on Serena's face faded, and she became a little hesitant.This change of expression completely fell into Mr. Jin's eyes, and Mr. Jin asked Serena gently what's the matter.A little hesitant, Serena still put forward her request to go to a girls' school in London, and also explained that she felt that she should know more people, and felt that her knowledge and experience were too shallow now, and she should go to a lady's school. Education, but also learning about interpersonal communication.

In the end, Serena also expressed her hesitation, thinking whether studying alone would be too tiring for her grandfather, and she wanted to share the hard work for him.

Mr. Jin's face has always been gentle, hearing Serena's hesitation even made Mr. Jin smile.He looked at his granddaughter lovingly, and said in an unprecedented gentle tone: "You have grown up, my Serena." Serena seemed to see tears in her grandfather's eyes.In this sad and gratifying atmosphere, Serena didn't know what to answer for a moment, but her vision was a little blurred.

Looking at the grandfather who seemed to be immersed in memories, Serena choked up a little: "Grandfather." Mr. Jin came back to his senses, raised the corners of his lips at Serena, coughed and said, "You want to go to a girls' school Of course further studies are good, and your grandfather supports you, but you have to make arrangements for which girls' school to go to and when to go." Looking at the granddaughter standing by the table, Mr. Jin stood up and touched Serena The hair continued: "As for the little Serena who wants to help grandfather, that's fine, Serena started to learn from the housekeeper, from tomorrow this house will be handed over to Serena to manage, I will let Sarah Mrs. Lun taught you, you can also ask Mrs. Lucas, is this good?"

"Yeah!" Serena nodded, "I will study hard."

Serena's good life has come to an end since she started to learn housekeeping. There are only two masters and less than ten servants. Why are there so many things? It's as big as what staple food for lunch today, as small as the need to buy needles and threads, everything You have to take care of everything, worry about everything, and keep accounts. In the first few days of contact, Serena was so dizzy.Fortunately, with the help of Mrs. Sharron, she was not really 14 years old, and she also consulted Mrs. Lucas and Charlotte. After two weeks, Serena finally got a clue about the family affairs.

Serena, who was relieved, was finally free again. In the past two weeks, Serena often went to Lucas's house to ask for advice. Mrs. Lucas was often not free, but Charlotte, who had learned how to be a housekeeper, gave Serena advice. More, the frequent contact with Charlotte made Serena and Charlotte familiar.Serena really felt that Charlotte was a smart, insightful, and good woman. The most important thing was that she was very transparent. She could clearly see the reality of this society's treatment of women without money and looks, but she didn't feel sorry for herself. Still indifferent and calm, she is a generous and steady woman.I don't know how others feel, but in Serena's view, Charlotte is an admirable woman. Thinking of her future, she calmly seized the opportunity and calmly married Collins, who was completely unworthy of her personality. Sir, this is her choice. She has chosen a path that is best for herself and her family under limited conditions. She is a decisive woman.Elizabeth, who is still young and beautiful, can't do it, and Serena, who is desperate, can't do it until she asks herself.

Time went from spring to summer, and the vegetation on the roadside became more and more lush. Grandpa's wheelchair finally arrived. After trying it, although it was still a bit bulky, he was still very satisfied with Mr. Jin who hadn't been out for a long time.Since getting a wheelchair, Serena has accompanied her grandfather to take a walk outside every day when it doesn't rain.

This morning, in the still sunny day, Serena was pushing her grandfather for a walk on the path, when Mr. Jin suddenly mentioned the arrangement of going to a girls' school in London.He said that he has already contacted the school, and the school will start in September, but he will accompany Serena to London one month in advance to adapt to the environment there and purchase some needed accessories and clothing.

Serena, who was pushing Mr. Jin, stopped. She squatted next to Mr. Jin's wheelchair, looked up at Mr. Jin, and said, "If I go to school, my grandfather will be alone. Grandfather, I can't bear you, why don't you What to do?" Mr. Jin stroked Serena's head, "Grandfather is also reluctant to part with you, but you should meet more people, learn knowledge, and increase knowledge. Grandpa can also visit his old friends, and It's just two years of courses and vacations, and it will pass quickly."

Looking at Serena who was still depressed, Mr. Jin patted her on the head and said: "You still have a lot to learn before going to school. You said last time that you would share the work with me. The housekeeper is just the beginning, and it will start tomorrow." Come to my study and accompany me to process the documents."

"Ah! Is there a lot more?" Serena, who was distracted, finally raised her head and looked at her grandfather, who gently stroked her hair and nodded.

At the end of July, Serena went to Lucas's house to say goodbye. Maria knew that Serena was leaving to study in a girls' school in London. She was envious and reluctant, and Charlotte, who was always generous, rarely showed envy.Serena promised to send them letters often, and she would always look forward to their replies, and she would remember to bring them gifts when she came back from vacation.

After saying goodbye to her acquaintances, Serena returned home to pack her luggage for London. Mr. Jin called Serina and gave her an envelope and a jewelry box.

"There is 1 pounds in the envelope. This is pocket money for you. The jewelry box is part of your mother's jewelry. It can be handed over to you now. You must keep it safe."

"Before entering the school, I will always be with you, but after entering the school, you can only bring a housekeeper, a maid. The housekeeper must be Mrs. Sharon, she watched you grow up, and she will accompany you and me Don't worry, you also need to bring a maid, you and Mrs. Sharron discuss who to bring."

Mr. Jin told Serena that he would also go to London with him, but he seemed to be unable to rest assured about anything.Looking at the grandfather who was nagging something completely incompatible with his serious face, Serena felt soft in her heart. She smiled, listened, and nodded from time to time...
