[Pride and Prejudice] Becoming Katherine Bennett

Catherine lay on Jane's bed, staring at her intently.

Jane is the most beautiful daughter of the Bennett family and the most beautiful girl in the town. Her hair is blond, sometimes shining when the sun shines, her skin is fair and delicate, and her oval face has demure and soft features. Smile, the whole person looks gentle and noble, exuding a charming temperament

Elizabeth came over and tugged at her braid: "You're looking at Jane like this again."

Her hand was very gentle, and it didn't hurt at all. Catherine laughed and tied the braids that had been loosened.

Jane was choosing dresses for a public ball a few days later, and she was hesitating between a long white silk dress with a drop of flowers at the neckline and another high-waisted cotton dress in beige.

Catherine thinks that Jane doesn't need to worry about this problem at all: "Jane, you are the best-looking girl in the audience no matter what you wear."

Jane looked at her with watery eyes, with a helpless sweet smile on her lips.

Since she dressed as Catherine, Lydia, who used to be the best in Guanxiu, seldom played together, and it was difficult to communicate with her third sister Mary, but her relationship with Jane and Elizabeth gradually became closer.

Catherine did not deliberately make friends with the two sisters.After all, she still has to write, and she doesn't care much about the relationship between her sisters.

Their relationship began one day when the Bennett sisters went to the Milan store in the town. She helped Elizabeth choose a hat with cherries and strawberries as a pendant. Clothes, hats, accessories, shoes and other girls' dressing topics are gradually getting better.

Catherine didn't know what the relationship between girlfriends was like, but she felt that one day she really had good friends, and she would not be more likable than these two sisters.

Jane is beautiful, with a gentle and kind personality. Elizabeth is not as beautiful as Jane, but she is smart and thoughtful. Among the four sisters in the Bennett family, Catherine and she get along best.

Catherine was lying on the bed, watching Jane put on a beige high-waisted cotton skirt, the neckline revealing milk-white to glowing skin, which was even more charming under the dimly flickering candlelight.

The more she looked at Jane, the more beautiful she felt, and she even wanted to touch her: "If Mr. Bingley chooses a lady in Meriton to be his wife, I can't think of anyone else who is suitable except Jane."

"I also think," Elizabeth joked, "according to my mother's idea, Jane will propose to Mr. Bingley the day after she meets Mr. Bingley. If she moves quickly, the wedding can be held next month."

Catherine thought seriously: "How should five thousand pounds be spent?"

Jane blushed at the words of the two sisters: "Stop talking, Lizzie and Kitty, I don't know what Mr. Bingley looks like and what kind of person he is."

Catherine made a grimace: "Didn't mother say that she is very handsome, and more importantly, very, very rich. Otherwise, it is useless to be handsome."

Who let them inherit only a thousand pounds?

A few days later Mr. Bingley called on Mr. Bennett at Longbourne Hall.

When he was about to leave, the maid went upstairs to tell the news to several young ladies. Jane, Elizabeth and even Mary put down their books or needlework, and hid behind the window to peep at the bachelor who was the center of the topic.

Catherine also saw it. She thought that Mr. Bingley had handsome features and a soft expression, which made people feel good at first glance.But he was slightly thin and not tall. Overall, he was a handsome young man, but he was far less exaggerated than what Mrs. Bennett and Mrs. Lucas said.

Their description probably added a filter of pounds. Thinking of his annual income, that ordinary handsome face instantly turned into a charming Tom Cruise level.

Mrs. Bennet was very excited, and hurriedly asked the butler to send a post for the banquet to Nedfield Manor, hoping to invite Mr. Bingley to be a guest at home. At that time, she would carefully arrange the banquet and invite the ugly girls in the neighborhood who couldn't dress up together , Highlighting Jane's tenderness, beauty and charm.

But the steward failed to bring back good news.Mr. Bingley was very sorry that he would be away from Nedderfield to-morrow on business to London.

Mrs. Bennett, who received the reply, was still a little dissatisfied until the morning a few days later, complaining endlessly: "Mr. Bingley has just moved to Nedfield, what is the important thing to leave in such a hurry?"

Elizabeth said: "I heard from Charlotte that Mrs. Lucas said that Mr. Bingley is going to London to invite guests. He is going to bring twelve ladies and seven gentlemen to the ball."

Mrs. Bennet was relieved when she heard the words. She was worried that Mr. Bingley was an unpredictable person, so that the possibility of him settling down in Nedelfil would be reduced.Now that she heard that he was going to invite guests, she let go of her worries, but within a few minutes, her nerves ached again: "Miss Twelve? Oh, my poor nerves." 2

Mr. Bennett, who is usually in charge of slandering people, went out yesterday and was not at home. No one else answered Mrs. Bennett's words.It was probably because expectations were too high before, but when they heard that Mr. Bingley would bring back so many female guests, everyone couldn't help but feel a little bit shocked.

The only exception is Catherine.She can still drool over Bentleys, Mr. Bentley.

After breakfast, Catherine counted the time, put on soft-soled shoes that were easy to walk in, and couldn't wait to get out of the house.She stepped on the dirt in the country, along the road that the horses and horses coming back from London must pass, and walked forward while admiring the beautiful scenery on both sides of the road.

Hertfordshire is 34 kilometers away from London in a straight line, and according to the groom, it can be reached in more than three hours.Mr. Bennett went out yesterday to go to the publishing house for Catherine, to help her discuss matters of publication and publication.

Although Catherine wanted to go very much, but due to reality and reputation, she decided to give up after several considerations.

The status of British women in this era is very low, not to mention the right to vote in politics, they do not even have the right to be an independent individual, she can only entrust Mr. Bennett to sign in his name for the book, she did not sign a contract with the publisher Qualifications. 3

Mr. Bennett told her before he left that he would be visiting friends after the talk and would not be back until the next day.Catherine waited at home all morning, and was so anxious that she couldn't sit still, so she came out early to meet him.

She gave Mr. Bennett 80.00% of the manuscript of "Blood Return" yesterday. She still doesn't know whether the letter is from the publisher or the newspaper, but no matter which one, as long as she is willing to publish and print it, it is very exciting for her now. things that people are satisfied with.

Catherine has already inquired, and now a better-selling book can bring the author 600-800 pounds of income.According to her life plan, the income from writing can fully satisfy her life.

Due to the urgent need for money, Catherine's first book did not have any lofty meaning. She used multiple settings from later generations of YY. When writing the book, everything made way for the word "cool". How can the plot setting make readers happy? how come.

"Blood Revenge" tells the story of the revenge of Pittman Antonio, the son of the duke.

Pittman Antonio, who lived in the countryside of southern France, was originally a diligent and reliable young man. Although his father died early and his mother beat and scolded him vulgarly, he still got a British businessman through hard work. He also fell in love with Jennifer, the daughter of a squire in the same village.

However, just as his life was getting better, Antonio suddenly encountered a fatal disaster. On a rainy night, he was pierced through the chest by a cold arrow.

Antonio was on the verge of death, and a mysterious voice suddenly appeared in his mind: "Pitman Antonio, are you willing to die like this? Do you desire power? If your answer is yes, then, open your eyes!"

Antonio found that he had gained supernatural powers. Not only did he not have any scars on his body, but his strength became extremely strong. His eyes could see things ten kilometers away, and his ears could hear the whispers of others.

Antonio is determined to take revenge, and during his investigation, he discovers that the assassination was actually the work of Flynn Wilfred, the son of the richest and most powerful nobleman in France, Duke El de Wilfred!

And the reason for killing Antonio was that Flynn Wilfred knew that Antonio was the Duke's real son, and their identities were switched because of Flynn's mother, who secretly sent herself to Duke Wilfred when she was a maid at the Duke's house. The son of the prince was exchanged with the son of the duke, and the maid was the mother who was extremely harsh on him.

Antonio is determined to get back everything he has, and let the blood of others be paid in blood.

……

Catherine never dared to underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. She knew that her level was limited, so she was determined to win with the plot.She followed the pattern of foreshadowing, turning points, and peaks in each chapter, and she completed the book almost in one go.

Catherine was also a little apprehensive when she finished writing, not knowing whether the modern story is suitable for the current Britain, but fortunately, Mr. Gordon's response made her feel relieved.It seems that everyone loves yy.

Catherine is wearing a pink high-waisted gauze dress today, bought with the £2 that Mr Bennett rewarded her the other day.Catherine, an iron cock who has never spent money after time travel, received the news that it would be published and decided to celebrate. She bought this dress made of high-end fabrics and fine cotton at the most fashionable clothing store in town. The boss told her it was London. The latest popular style, there is only one in Meriton Town.

Catherine touched the soft skirt, feeling heartbroken and lamenting that money is better. The skirt was constantly praised by Jane and Elizabeth. The bright color made Catherine look youthful and charming at her age.

Catherine is just 17 years old, she is still a young girl. Although she is not as beautiful as Jane, she has inherited Mrs. Bennett's genes. She is a beautiful little girl. Europeans and Americans develop early. Mi Wu has fair skin, black hair, and looks glamorous.

In the past, Catherine had a somewhat frivolous personality, and with such a look, she seemed quite dissolute. However, today's Catherine has an indifferent personality and a calm temperament. When matched with such an appearance, the frivolity is eliminated and a little bit of temperament is added.

Catherine put her hair up and simply matched it with a pearl hairpin. A few strands of hair fell mischievously, floating with the wind, and the skirt fluttered lightly. .

Darcy rode into the town of Meriton, and the first thing he saw was a girl holding wild flowers and walking happily on the road. Maybe the scenery behind her was so charming. From a distance, Darcy felt that she seemed to be It's like stepping out of oil painting.

Bentley at the side also saw Catherine, and couldn't help laughing: "Darcy, this countryside is not as boring as you think."

Darcy did not answer.

Bingley continued: "I haven't seen this girl before, but she must be a lady from the Bennett family. I've heard that their daughters are very beautiful."

The two of them were gradually approaching Catherine on horseback. Catherine raised her head excitedly when she heard the sound of horseshoes, and when she found that it was not Mr. Bennett, she stepped back and waited for them to pass by.

She just took a few steps back when a familiar carriage approached in the distance.

Catherine was so excited that she didn't bother to salute the two gentlemen. With a flowery smile on her face, she picked up her skirt and ran towards Mr. Bennett.

Miss Bingley, who was sitting in the carriage, had just heard their conversation, and when she saw Catherine running away with her skirt up, she was very disdainful: "The girls in this country are indeed quite different from us."

The horse was about to cross Catherine, Darcy looked back and rode the horse without turning his head.

Bentley slowed down his horse and caught up after a while.

He said: "It's really Miss Bennett's family. I saw her running towards a carriage, and Mr. Bennett got out of the carriage. Shall I say hello?"

"It's rude to meet like this," Darcy replied.

Bingley thought for a while, nodded in agreement, and stopped thinking about greetings.

But Darcy reined in his horse, glanced at the carriage a few miles away from them, said nothing, then turned his horse back, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and urged the tall black horse to run towards Nedfell.
