[Comprehensive Book] A Rose for Catherine

The young man bowed his head, his eyes focused and gentle.He had always been reserved, and it was rare for Catherine to feel that his unrevealed emotions were no longer restrained at this time, and fell into her eyes unreservedly.

Catherine understood the meaning of his unfinished words, and because of this, she couldn't help feeling that the other party was too tolerant.As a lover, he could be a little more selfish, and Catherine would never blame him for it.

But she was grateful for his tolerance from the bottom of her heart.

In the face of a sincere love, Catherine also faced Knightley with a sincere attitude, and she solemnly made a promise: "I will think carefully about every decision I make. As you know, when I face your feelings It’s not easy, I even planned not to step into a 'marriage' for the rest of my life, which troubles me. Because I really can't deny my feelings for you, and I can't treat marriage as a negotiable transaction completely rationally."

"Kitty, sometimes you are so honest that I don't know what to do." The other party sighed and smiled, and was quite touched by her sincere confession.

"But dear sir—" Catherine took a few steps forward, with her hands behind her back, "if we hadn't discussed this issue, we wouldn't have started discussing marriage so early."

She blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "I won't be there. If you want to get married, you have to wait until you are 20 years old. Not to mention Lizzie and Mary."

Knightley hurried after her resignedly.

They circled a few times in the undergrowth, occasionally not speaking quietly, and walking side by side for a while made Catherine feel peaceful.

Catherine thought of some novel she had read in which a young woman met her lover in a garden after dusk, and they spoke passionately of their love for each other, embracing and kissing.She once thought that young men and women would express their affection in this way at this time, until something like a "tryst" happened to her, and she found it funny that things were different from what she thought.

They liked each other no less than those stories portrayed them, but they were far more restrained than the lovers in the stories.

Everyone expresses their feelings differently, and Catherine sees nothing wrong with them.

When she was lost in thought, a gunshot sounded in the sky not far away.Flocks of birds flew across the clear blue sky in the morning.

"It's hunting time again." Catherine listened to the continuous sound of gunfire for a while. "Papa likes to go hunting at this time of year. It seems that you gentlemen like these activities." ①

"Hunting is a fun activity," Knightley admitted.

Catherine thought about the activity and said, "Then you're sure to be popular with Daddy."

"I'd rather know if Mr. Bennet's daughter would like me better for that?"

He looked at Catherine solemnly.

Catherine laughed, "I guess not."

"That really breaks my heart."

"Because I am able to like you a little more now. Mr. Knightley, you make me fear that my liking is not enough, so I resolve not to be any more while you are hunting."

"I don't know if there's anything I can do to change Miss Kitty's mind? You know I'm never too fond of you."

He seems to be joking, but also seems to be talking about this issue with her seriously.

"I'm afraid there is no way." Catherine shook her head pretending to regret, "Sir, you shouldn't ask me at this time, but should try to find a way."

Her eyes were shining brightly, with a smile and ridicule.

Since then, the two families have become more and more intimate, and Knightley stayed for several dinners. His demeanor soon won Lydia's approval, and he accepted his extra brother-in-law.Brett thought that Catherine should have changed her attitude towards him under Knightley's buffer. Just when he was complacent, Lydia went into London in a carriage and didn't plan to come back for a while.

This matter has something to do with Jane, the eldest married daughter of the Bennet family.

Jane and her new husband soon settled down in London. As a big businessman, Leonard was very busy with his affairs and didn't have enough time to accompany his wife. In order not to make her feel bored, he fully supported Jane in doing some charity work. The couple opened an orphanage to take in children who had fallen into the streets.

Starting an orphanage was no easy task, especially since Jane had never done anything other than needlework before.Fortunately, Leonard's shrewd mind allows him to teach Jane to arrange things in an orderly manner.The orphanage was quickly run smoothly, and Jane had arranged for other problems, except that she had to prepare enough clothes for these children.

Jane thought of Lydia, and she wanted to ask her sister to design a dress for the children in the orphanage as a regular dress.You don't need to pursue fashion, but it must be suitable for children.

It's not that Jane has not received clothes donated by wealthy people, but those expensive materials that need to be maintained are not suitable for these children, and it is difficult to find a good enough fit for the children from a pile of clothes.There is only one piece of clothing, but there are often many children who like it. This is also a problem that makes Jane feel embarrassed-it is not suitable for anyone.

She referred to some Catherine's opinions, and wanted to design several comfortable clothes for these children. It didn't need to be tailor-made, as long as the size was about the same, she could entrust the factory under Leonard's name to produce them.All of the above, so she naturally thought of her little sister Lydia.

Brett, who received the message a full day after Lydia left: "…"

Catherine had also received Jane's letter, and she invited Catherine to take a look at the orphanage named after Jane.Catherine was a little moved, but considering that Mr. Knightley would not be able to stay in Longbourn for a long time, she wanted to spend more time with him, so she had to write back and decline.

Compared with Jane's actions, Catherine's school progress is really not fast.The architect assigned to them by His Excellency the Regent quickly delivered drawings of several designs, from which Catherine selected the most suitable and scientific design.She threw away complicated designs and cumbersome decorations, and required the building to be streamlined.

This request was made in large part because of her lack of budget.Catherine calculated the material list and subsequent expenses, and she wrote to Sophia, asking if she could help hold a salon event.theme?Of course, let these rich and leisure gentlemen and ladies collect donations.Catherine politely suggested a small charity auction, and the money raised would be used to build the school.

Catherine also considered how to get these people to participate in the auction. Of course, the name of Princess Charlotte was a good excuse, but Catherine was going to write to ask Charlotte for help, but after several considerations, she gave up this plan.

Although the name of Princess Charlotte is useful, it cannot make them recognize this school.They will only use this method to please the future crown prince, but they still don't take this school seriously from the bottom of their hearts.

So she must not blindly borrow Charlotte's name.

Catherine was determined to give up this "shortcut", she sighed, took out the unfinished speech that she had been pressing at the bottom of the manuscript paper, looked at it, and continued to write.

I wish her success!
