[Pride and Prejudice] Plain water

A few weeks had passed since Darcy and Anne's wedding, when they received a letter from Mr. Bingley on the day that he had found a property in Hanfordshire which seemed to be what he wanted.The location is great for traveling to London as much as you want, and visiting my family up north, and not too far from Pemberley, so it's easy to visit Darcy.The agent came highly recommended to him, but he knew so little about such matters that he wished to hear Darcy's opinion.

The next day, Darcy took Anne to Netherfield to meet Bingley. He always regarded Bingley as a good friend, and he would definitely help a friend in need.They toured the place together and Bentley was happy with everything, he said it was glorious, there was nothing wrong with it, and he walked around there with his hands behind his back as if he had lived here for the last 20 years.He was pleased with the surroundings and principal rooms, and with the middle, Mr. Morris's compliments on it.

But Darcy thought the price was too high after visiting and asking Mr. Morris.Mr Morris initially insisted the price was reasonable, but soon realized it was a bit high and they set a far lower price.After the solution, Darcy suggested that Bingley send the servants over first, and let them tidy up the house to ensure that he can move in when he comes.

Bentley was glad he listened to his advice and invited them to come and play.Darcy and the others just happened to be newlyweds, and they thought it was time to go for a visit, so they brought Georgiana and Fitzwilliam with them, so that Georgiana would be refreshed if they went out to have a look, and Fitzwilliam just happened to have time to look after Georgiana. .

On the first day of the month, a chic open carriage was driving on the country road in Longborn. There were two men and two women sitting in the carriage. They were Annie and the others. Mr. Bingley was also very enthusiastic about their arrival.

At the same time, such a scene is happening on the other side.

Mrs. Bennet said to her husband: "My good lord, Netherfield is at last let, have you heard?"

Mr. Bennet replied that he had not heard of it.

"It is indeed rented out," she said. "Mrs. Lange has just been here, and she told me all the details of the matter."

Mr. Bennet ignored her.

"Don't you want to know who rented it?" cried the madame impatiently.

"Since you want to tell me, I don't mind listening."

This sentence was enough to encourage her to continue.

"Oh! my dear, you must know, said Mrs. Lange, that Netherfield was rented by a rich young man from the North of England; I hear he came to see the house in a four-horse limousine on Monday, I liked it very much, and made an agreement with Mr. Morris on the spot; he will move in before Michaelmas Day, and plans to call some servants to live in before next week."

"What's this man's name?"

"Bentley."

"Are there wives, or bachelors?"

"Oh! a bachelor, my dear, a bachelor indeed! A rich bachelor; four or five thousand pounds a year. What a blessing to the daughters!"

"What do you say? What's the matter with daughters and daughters?"

"My good lord," replied the lady, "how you are so a nuisance! I tell you, I was thinking of what it would be like if he should choose one of our daughters for his wife!"

"Is that why he came to live here?"

"Got! What nonsense! But he's interested in one of our daughters. You'll have to call on him as soon as he moves in."

"I needn't go. You'll have to take the girls, or it might be better if you send them by themselves, for none of them can surpass your beauty in comparison with your daughters, and you go Well, Mr. Bingley might have picked you?"

"My good lord, you flatter me too much. I have been admired for my beauty before, but now I dare say that there is something remarkable about it. A woman with five grown-up daughters shouldn't be wronged. What else do you think about your own beauty?"

"In this way, a woman can't think much about her own beauty."

"But, my good lord, you should indeed go and see Bingley when he comes into our neighbourhood."

"To tell you the truth, it's not my job."

"For the daughter's sake. Just think how nice it would be for either of them to be in such a house. Sir William and his wife have decided to visit him, and that's what they mean. You know , They usually don't visit their new neighbors. You should really go once, and if you don't, tell us how to go."

"You are too thoughtful. Mr. Bingley will be delighted to see you; and I can write and bring you a letter, saying that whichever daughter he chooses of mine I will gladly promise to marry; but, In my letter I must boast a few words for little Lizzy."

"I hope you don't. Lizzy is not in the least bit above the other girls; I dare say she is not half Jane in beauty, and not half Lydia in temper. You may Always favoring her." "None of them deserve credit," he answered; "they're as foolish and ignorant as other girls; but Lizzy's brighter than her sisters."

"My good lord, why are you willing to spoil your newborn daughter like this? You are deliberately annoying me to please yourself. You have no consideration for my nervous breakdown."

"You have misunderstood me, my dear lady. I have great respect for your nerves. They are my old friends. I have heard you speak of them with deliberation, at least for the last twenty years."

"Ah! You don't know how I suffer!"

"But I hope your problem will get better. Then, rich young men like this with an income of four thousand pounds a year, you can watch them move in as your neighbors one by one."

"If you don't want to visit them, what good will it do us if twenty move here!"

"Don't worry, my good wife, when there are twenty, I will visit them one by one."
