Jane Ying of Pride and Prejudice

On Christmas Eve, Mrs. Bennet's younger brother's family went to Longborn to celebrate Christmas as usual. The arrival of Mr. Gardner's family was warmly welcomed by the Bennet family.

Uncle Gardner is really a reasonable and gentlemanly man, and my aunt suits him very well, with elegant manners and amiability.

The sisters like their uncle and aunt very much, not only because they are really amiable elders, but also because their aunt always invites them to the city to stay for a while. The bustling London is still very attractive to the ladies.

There is another important reason why the two younger members of the family like their uncle and aunt—the first thing the aunt does when she comes to their house is to distribute gifts.

In addition, they will also tell you about the latest clothing styles and new things happening in London.

The reason why Mrs. Bennet also likes her sister-in-law is because she can always quietly listen to her complaints and complaints, and she will show comforting expressions from time to time to soothe her fragile emotions. bored.

This time when she came to Bennet's house, she would inevitably have to listen to Mrs. Bennet for a while.Only this time, Mrs. Bennet didn't just complain, she also boasted about Elizabeth's good marriage, praised Mr. Bingley, and then naturally blamed Jane Ying for the pain she had caused. .

"She really has such a beautiful face!" Mrs. Bennet yelled, "I thought she had a good temper, but it hurt my heart a lot in the marriage, not only did she fail to catch Mr. Darcy Such a wealthy son-in-law even rejected Mr. Collins who proposed to her. This time, both ends are lost. She will be 23 years old in the next year, and she will become an old girl if she delays. What else can I find? Darling!"

Lydia was still booing, "If I don't get married by the age of 23, I'll be ashamed!" Elizabeth gave a fierce stare, and even Mary secretly rolled her eyes.

"It really breaks my heart. Mr. Collins has been snatched away by the crafty Miss Lucas, and the Longbourn estate will be inherited..."

Mrs. Bennet was so sad that the matter was already a foregone conclusion, and not a short time had passed, and she couldn't let it go!This is understandable, anyone who has to give up the home that he has managed all his life to others will be so reluctant and brooding!

Mrs. Gardner naturally understands Mrs. Bennet's pain very well. As the mistress of the house, as a mother, she still has a good position to comfort Mrs. Bennet.

But she can't bear the heart of her nieces to keep listening to them. Young girls should be lively, cheerful, and free, because once they get married, they can no longer be as simple as they are now, and they always have to think about more s things.

She also knew the news when she corresponded with Elizabeth and Jianying before, so she changed the topic without any trace.Her nieces are naturally grateful and like her thoughtfulness very much.And these days, Jianying, who has been repeated these words countless times by Mrs. Bennet, is even more grateful.

Aunt obviously also cared about their marriage and relationship, and then she chatted with Jian Ying for a while. Regarding the rejection of Mr. Collins' marriage proposal, of course she supported Jian Ying's approach. She and her husband, Mr. Gardner, Emotions are very good. She believes that marriage should be based on emotions. Otherwise, two people who have to get along for decades will face each other every day, and it is difficult not to get bored or even quarrel.If there are feelings as the basis, then both parties will think more about each other, and the marriage will naturally be happy.

But she didn't know that Mr. Darcy also proposed to his niece, and she just persuaded Mr. Darcy to leave immediately after showing a little affection for Jian Ying.

"A young man like Mr. Darcy you mentioned has a prominent family background and is proud of others. Even if he is attracted to a beautiful girl, when he realizes the gap between the two sides, he will naturally suppress such signs decisively. Wait for him Avoid the bustling London and attend a few balls, and within a few weeks, he will easily forget the girl he was attracted to before, and marry a lady who is well-matched, there are many things like this. "

Jian Ying couldn't help defending Darcy: "He's not that kind of person, he can't do things that deliberately play with emotions."

"Oh, it seems that you have a lot of trust in his character, so it's even more sad that he left in a hurry!"

"As a friend, his departure is indeed a loss for Longborn, because he is really a sincere friend who treats friends sincerely and does his best!"

The aunt smiled, showing a rather understanding expression, and at the same time looked at Jianying with tolerance.

"I have lived in Derbyshire, and I naturally have a good impression of the young people there. Although I have also heard some inappropriate behaviors of this young man in Harford, it does not mean that his character is corrupt. , if you really believe that he is really noble, and you really love him, why not give it a try? Young girls always have to try to love a few times before they can experience the true taste of love!"

Jian Ying just smiled and shook her head slightly.

Seeing her aunt's pitiful expression, Jianying smiled wryly to herself. To be honest, after rejecting him, she didn't want other people to know that she had feelings for Darcy, but it seems that there are quite a few people who understand , and always look like too much.

"My poor Jane, will you go back to London with your aunt? Perhaps a change of surroundings will save you from thinking of him, and after a while you will forget him, and besides, it may be better to leave home and breathe a sigh of relief." all good."

Jianying was thoughtful, and she also wanted to avoid Mrs. Bennet's fragile nerves from time to time, especially when her nerves were always stimulated when she saw her.

Mrs. Gardiner added: "I don't think you need to worry about running into him in London. Although we live in the same city as Mr. Darcy, we are not in the same area. London is very big unless you visit or he I came to see you specially, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to meet.”

Jian Ying said that she still had to think about it, but Mrs. Gardner went on to say that she hoped that Elizabeth would go with her, because Mr. Bingley was in London. She felt very sorry for the couple who had just been engaged but separated, and naturally hoped to provide them with a chance to get married. See you soon.

Jianying is even more hesitant now, she doesn't really want to see Darcy now, but after considering that Darcy may be doing the thing she asked, she can't help but want to ask where the matter is going.

The much-loved Mr. Wickham has been away from Hertfordshire for some time, perhaps he has already set foot on the big ship to America, I believe Mr. Darcy's character will not make him suffer much, perhaps He'll break new ground with it, too, if he's not playing tricks.This is what he deserves, instead of doing bad things and always being tolerated by good people, and continue to live a chic life!

Mr. Bingley missed the appointment again. This time Elizabeth showed obvious anxiety, and Jianying's heart skipped a beat. Mr. Bingley was also vague in his letter about what happened in London, but his letter was obviously written in a hurry, and he didn't even explain himself. The reason for postponing my return again was simply to ask Elizabeth for her understanding.

It happened that my aunt invited Jianying to go to London to relax, so Jianying and Elizabeth immediately decided to follow their uncle to London to see what happened!

There is still a layer of worry in Jianying's heart, because she has been concerned about Mr. Wickham's matter, and as far as she knows, the matter related to Mr. Bingley is the matter she asked Darcy to do. Now there is obviously something wrong It exceeded everyone's expectations, and Jianying had no choice but to go to confirm it in person.

So, a week later, when the Gardners were about to leave Longbourne, Jane Ying and Elizabeth also went with them. Elizabeth didn't really want to go, because seeing what Cousin Collins said before, her good friend Charlotte Tate might be married soon, but her aunt said she could go to London for a little time and come back with Mr. Bingley, so that she wouldn't miss Miss Lucas' farewell.

In order to see Mr. Bingley as soon as possible, Elizabeth hesitated and then agreed.

Before Elizabeth went to London, she sent a letter to Mr. Bingley, in which she wrote about her intentions. Because Bingley's last letter to her mentioned that he would not return to Netherfield Gardens a few days later, she made up her mind. In London, I would first call on the Bingleys, and then follow Mr. Bingley back to Longbourn when he was done.
