Jane Ying of Pride and Prejudice

Madam Catherine's attention fell on Jian Ying almost as soon as they entered the sitting room.

Jian Ying's extremely rare beauty obviously surprised the lady!Naturally, Jianying noticed her expression immediately, her seat and the aura around her clearly showed her identity.

Jian Ying breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Although this lady could not be regarded as her future decent mother-in-law, she still wanted to make a good impression on her.At least it shouldn't make people think that she can't get on stage, that would be too shameful.

For an elder with a foreign surname who needs respect like Mrs. Catherine, her appearance should be quite a plus, right?Especially when this elder has the idea of ​​marrying her daughter to her nephew, at least she can no longer say anything that Mr. Darcy has no vision.

Well, beauty is indeed a sharp weapon!Thanks to the Bennet couple for giving her a good foundation!

Thinking of this, the original tension in Jianying's heart suddenly eased a lot. She looked at the lady generously. Although Madam Catherine's attitude was a bit high, the resemblance between her eyebrows and Darcy's was very good. Jianying ignored her attitude.

The thin and thin Miss de Bauer even made Jianying feel sorry for her. She would not treat her as a rival in love. The rival in love has always been caused by men's unsteady attitudes. A man who needs a woman to deal with a rival in love will not Let Jianying be tempted.

She tried to see clearly this frail young lady who reminded her of her past life and felt empathy, but the ordinary-looking Mrs. Jiang Jinsheng blocked her from the guests to see clearly. This lady was obviously very protective of the calf.

They took their seats under the host's greeting, and accepted the host's look and inquiry.But within a few minutes, a servant came in and said that two more important guests had arrived!

Everyone was taken aback, including Lady Catherine.She stood up almost immediately and stood up to greet her.

The new guests came in quickly, and one by one they hugged the old lady who had come to the door to greet them.

"God, Darcy, you never said you would be here today. It must be your attention, dear little cousin Fitzwilliam!"

"Oh, aunt, you have wronged me. This time it is indeed Darcy's idea. You know, no one can be his master."

The new guests were Mr. Darcy and his cousin, Colonel Fitzwilliam, whose arrival was obviously not what the host expected.

Not to mention the host's original guests.Among them, Jian Ying was the most emotional. As soon as the new customers came in, her eyes were fixed on the most handsome one among them. She hadn't seen him for more than a month, and she felt that he had lost weight again.

"This year is much earlier than in previous years, Darcy, I'm so happy. I should have gone to London to see you, but it's better if you can come, so don't leave soon! Anne misses you very much too."

"Auntie, don't worry, I'm fully recovered." Darcy's expression remained the same as before, but his eyes fell on Jianying's side after he finished speaking.

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, he still has that serious expression and deep eyes, making him unapproachable and timid.But Jianying could easily see his surprise and liking from it, her eyes were also full of smiles, and she resisted the desire to approach him and hug him immediately.

Naturally, their interaction was not unnoticed, and Colonel Fitzwilliam was one of them. He was first amazed by Jianying's rare beauty for a moment, but after a brief amazement, he found that his always serious cousin was different Usually, he began to look back and forth between the two with great interest.

Lady Catherine was still talking to Darcy, her face was serious, and her tone was very strong.

"Even so, it's time to take care of yourself. Where's Georgiana? How's she doing?"

"Georgianna still has lessons to attend, she's been working hard recently! —Sir William, long time no see!" Darcy praised his dear sister Georgiana, and then changed the subject, he could see that his aunt was very important to his recovery It was gratifying, but he didn't want to see her continue to ignore her original guest and keep talking to him.

He turned his gaze to Jianying and the others, and greeted them sincerely.

"Mr. Collins, Mrs. Collins, Miss Elizabeth, long time no see!" Everyone rushed to greet him.

But then Darcy approached them, came to Jianying, and greeted her alone, his tone was obviously much warmer.

"Miss Bennet, long time no see!" Although he didn't call his name, this intimate gesture greatly violated his usual performance.

People who are more sensitive to this aspect are unavoidably taken aback in their hearts. They no longer know how much they have been frightened today. Even Sir William, who is always good at words, did not speak at this moment.

According to his usual style, he should have immediately teased the two of them at this moment, saying that he saw the birth of a happy relationship again, but he always felt restrained in front of Lady Catherine, so he missed the opportunity to enliven the atmosphere.Others, either because they were not familiar with each other, or had other plans, did not make a fuss about this matter, and instead introduced each other again.

Colonel Fitzwilliam was introduced, of course, by Lady Catherine, her other nephew, and Uncle Darcy's youngest son.Darcy has always had a close relationship with his uncle's family, especially his deceased mother, and has a very deep relationship with his brothers and sisters, so Darcy's name comes from his mother's surname.

Therefore, when these relatives called Darcy on weekdays, they would inevitably call him Darcy directly. If they called him by his name, many times William Fitz would turn around.This is also the reason why Jianying still calls her dear fiancé Darcy. Apart from the fact that she thinks Darcy is more affectionate and easy to call based on her habit, she has long known that he has a colonel cousin named Fitzwilliam.

After exchanging pleasantries, Darcy sat directly next to Jianying, everyone looked sideways again, but as the host, Mrs. Catherine deliberately acted very calm, her eyes swept over the two young people , the center of her brows tightened, making the nasolabial folds between her brows and eyes deeper.

They sat in this sitting room for a while, and Lady Catherine greeted everyone, including their current situation and future plans.Some questions were unavoidably blatant and overreaching, but under the auspices of the two uncles and nephews, the atmosphere was not embarrassing.

Then they set out on a tour of the stately manor, which of course pleased everyone.

Darcy even volunteered. He is very familiar with his aunt's house, and he can give thorough introductions to the first-time guests.

Darcy's performance was so obvious that Mrs. Catherine invited Jianying to have a conversation the next day.

No one knows the specific content of their conversation, but when the guests of Longborn left for various reasons after a week of arrival, the new guests who had only been here for four days also left with them.

……

Watching the carriage gradually go away, a tall but thin figure stood upright by Rosings' tall and luxuriously decorated windows, and Mrs. Catherine, who was dressed heavily and luxuriously, looked back at her thin daughter. There was a sigh that was completely out of character with her lips.

She looked at the road far away again, and the carriage in which her nephew was sitting had almost completely disappeared.

She knew that there was a young lady sitting there, a young lady whose nephew came to her in person, took her hand, and begged her to bless her, who was about to become his future wife.

……

"Maybe it's because I'm beautiful?"

"If you must ask me what I used to seduce your nephew, I will give you such an answer, probably because of beauty in the first place."

"I am not shameless and boastful, because I am confident that I can bring Darcy happiness. And I believe he can bring me my happiness."

"Maybe because he loves me?" "This is my greatest confidence."

"Status and property, I really can't bring him. It is precisely because of the gap between us that he no longer needs extra property and status to make him better."

"Beauty fades with time, but true love and responsibility don't."

"You are an elder whom Darcy respects very much. I think he didn't go to Longborn to pray for my parents' permission immediately after he recovered from his injury. Instead, he came to your house to let you know his heart, and he just hoped to get you. Your blessing is very important to him, so I hope you can slowly recognize me."

"In any case, you are Darcy's relatives, and we all wish him happiness."

……

The carriage has gone far away, and the garden still bears the frost. Madam Catherine's eyes are gradually covered with mist.

"Annie, did you see? Darcy has grown up..." Her sister seemed to appear again in front of her eyes. The relationship between them was so good. Her daughter called her by her name, and her son respected her like mother……

Now that she is gone, she will help her look at the woman who said she would bring Darcy happiness!See if they will be really happy...

As for her daughter Anne, Madam Catherine's expression was solemn, she slowly closed her eyes, and straightened her back even more.The young lady of the de Bourgh family is ready to marry!

The figure in the black dress turned around and walked away from the window firmly!
