Mr. Bingley has always been a very good-natured man, always so jovial, kind, and easy-going, and yet so unmanageable, if Mr. Darcy and the Earl of Leicester hadn't given him a big discount when they bought the agricultural products of Howard Manor. He may have already been broke from making ends meet.Even so, the Bingleys would not have been able to afford to send their children to higher education were it not for the fact that Mary and Elizabeth paid for Eton for two of the boys in the name of their godmothers.
Fortunately, Jane is always optimistic, even if her carriage and clothes are more shabby than those of her sisters, she doesn't care at all. She has always been the most beautiful among the sisters, with the best natural appearance and elegant temperament Decoration, she is respected and admired wherever she goes.
Just when her beauty was about to be consumed by years of pregnancy and childbirth, she unexpectedly discovered that her personal maid was also pregnant with a child, and the child's father was most likely to be Mr. Bingley, at least Mr. Bingley did not unequivocally denied.This incident made Jane very sad, but like other wives at the time, she could only swallow this bitter pill in silence, except for her bitter complaints in her letters to Elizabeth and Mary , she is still a good wife and housewife.
It's just that after this incident, she didn't get pregnant again, and she began to focus on raising her nine children, putting all her heart and soul into them.Mr. Bingley's guilt is manifested in his obedience to Jane, so everyone thinks he is an impeccable husband.
Elizabeth is much luckier than Jane, because Mr. Darcy has always loved her, he is clean and consistent, even though they only have one daughter and are criticized by the Darcy family, Mr. Darcy still fully supports her and comforts her. she.Elizabeth felt that God loved her so much. Her only regret was that she didn't have a son. She never got pregnant again, so she poured all her love into her daughter.
Little Elizabeth was born very beautiful, but under the pampering of her parents, she was quite willful. She often bossed around the Bingley cousins and directed them around.She later married her most bullied cousin, George Bingley.
Among the Bennet daughters, it was not Mary who married most beautifully, but Kitty.Kitty's husband, Major General Wellesley, charged heroically in the naval battle with the French army and captured the French commander, General Villeneuve, thereby saving Britain, curbing Napoleon's expansion ambitions, and giving those in Europe who were defeated by Napoleon The frightened monarchs received a shot in the arm.
Then he became the only general in Europe who could compete with Napoleon. After a series of victories in Denmark, Portugal and Spain, he was named Viscount Tanavera by the king, and later he was promoted to Marquis and Field Marshal, becoming a prominent man for a while. The upstart, and behind his series of victories were the Earl of Leicester's great help in armament supplies, and the two formed a steely alliance.In order to strengthen Wellesley's influence, the Earl of Leicester strongly recommended Richard, the elder brother of Marshal Wellesley, as the Minister of Foreign Affairs. This made Wellesley's series of military operations in Europe approved by the British government and strong support from Congress.
Since then, he has been invincible and led his army into France, forcing Napoleon, who was defeated in Russia, to announce his abdication. The Bourbon dynasty was restored, Wellesley was awarded the title of Duke of Wellington, and Kitty became a duchess. There is a stool in front of the queen.Strictly speaking, Kitty lacked the qualities and upbringing that a lady should have. Fortunately, the Duke of Wellington didn't like to socialize. Well, he likes to live a quiet life, and when he suddenly gets a high position, Kitty doesn't need to look at people's faces or pay attention to others, so life is comfortable and carefree.
Since then, the Duke of Wellington has spent half of his life in the military career. He fought north and south, almost invincible, and his reputation even surpassed Napoleon, because in the Battle of Waterloo, he finally confronted Napoleon head-on and defeated the French army in one fell swoop.At that time, a story was widely spread throughout London: When the news of Napoleon's escape from the island of Elba reached London, the Prince Regent, the Prince of Wales, was asleep. After hearing the messenger's report, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't even have a nightcap. Before he had time to take it off, he ran to the other end of the corridor and knocked on the door of Duke Wellington's room. It was not until everyone in the palace was awakened that Duke Wellington opened the door slowly.He was already dressed neatly, and his hair was combed neatly. He pushed His Highness the Regent away, strode out the door, hung the sword around his waist, and loudly gave orders to the subordinates he could see. Moment he became the soul of the whole of England.After waking up the Duke of Wellington, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had finally fulfilled his duty, and went back to his room to continue sleeping.
The victory of the Battle of Waterloo brought the Duke of Wellington's reputation to its peak. He was called "the conqueror of the conqueror of the world". He was neither familiar nor interested in the field, but the crown prince and later the king needed him, and his relatives and subordinates also depended on his support and protection, so he shouldered his responsibilities obligatoryly, although he himself said many times, I would rather go to the English countryside with my wife to live the comfortable life of a country gentleman.He proposed to disarm and return to the field many times, but he was still the commander-in-chief of the British Army until his death.
In the second half of his political career, he was able to spend more time with his wife, which brought him not only two sons and a daughter, but also a lot of pain.He has always loved Kitty very much, but in the process of his prosperity, Kitty did not keep pace with the times, her knowledge and thoughts could not fully adapt to the new status and environment, even with the help of her sisters, she still made troubles. Many jokes were criticized, the Duke even dueled for her with a court poet who wrote limericks to satirize her inappropriate words and deeds. Gradually subside.
Kitty's attitude towards her husband is very contradictory. She adores him extremely and at the same time has excessive doubts about him. It seems that Kitty is prone to jealousy of every woman who has contact with the Duke, and she fights against threats for this. The Duke of Killington was quarrelsome.The most serious one was at a ball in Windsor, when Lady Harriet, a socialite in London, took the initiative to invite the Duke to dance.That night, she shut the Duke of Wellington out of the bedroom because of this incident, and she cried in her room, refusing to listen to any explanation.
The Duke of Wellington was furious, ran away from home in a fit of anger, and walked into the wilderness of Windsor in the middle of the night.When his attendants heard the news, they quickly caught up with him and persuaded him to go back. The Duke of Wellington stood in the field and questioned him: "I am a dignified man who has no freedom of speech, social freedom, and freedom to enter his wife's bedroom. Do you think I am a wimp?"
The Duke's attendant is a very witty person. He immediately said: "I know what happened to your lord. You don't need to be as knowledgeable as your wife. Although your lord was indeed locked out of the bedroom by your lady, in my mind, your lord is still a dignified person." A man." Then he successfully persuaded the Duke who had run away from home to go back, and this matter spread from Windsor to London, and then across the ocean from England to Europe, becoming a joke among women and children.But the witty aide was lucky enough to stand out, and was soon appointed by the king as a diplomatic envoy to France.
Many people asserted with certainty that if the Duke of Wellington had entered into a more suitable marriage and married a smart woman, he would have been happier, but marriage is like a fish drinking water. Regardless of what outsiders say, the Duke himself has always been faithful to his wife.
When Kitty was alive, because she loved the flashy life in London, they settled in Apsley House on the corner of Hyde Park, so it was called "No. 1 London House", because the Duke's influence was unmatched, so Regardless of the king, the government or the parliament, his opinion on the political situation must be consulted.And whenever possible, the duke always supported the king firmly, although he did not like George IV and his successor, King William, because he firmly defended the interests of the royal family and opposed parliamentary reform. The shutters of his residence were smashed by the mob. So he installed iron shutters on the windows, for which he was nicknamed "The Iron Duke".
Many people assume that he is authoritarian and domineering in the family. In fact, those who know him well know that he is neither cold nor hard-hearted. He is frank and sincere without exaggeration.Although he hated factional struggles extremely, he still firmly fulfilled his duties and beliefs, engaged in political affairs that he was not proficient in without complaint, and served as a diplomatic envoy many times and served as prime minister.
The Earl of Leicester told Mary that the Duke of Wellington was his salvation, because without Wellington, he would have to do those annoying political affairs by himself.But now, he can stay out of the matter and retreat without worrying about ending up like a dead dog.
After Kitty's death, the Duke of Wellington left London, resigned all public duties, settled in Walmer Castle, and enjoyed the pastoral life he had always longed for.He never remarried, and died alone like that.
Mr. Bingley has always been a very good-natured man, always so jovial, kind, and easy-going, and yet so unmanageable, if Mr. Darcy and the Earl of Leicester hadn't given him a big discount when they bought the agricultural products of Howard Manor.
