[Comprehensive Wear] You will get used to wearing it
Chapter 3 Pride and Prejudice
Yang Yi finally found a hotel that looked good. Although the furniture and decoration were old, at least it was clean, and the people living there seemed to be ordinary people, neither rich nor bad.Yang Yi took a look at the room under the guidance of the maid, and felt that the bed was fairly clean, so he tipped the maid three shillings, and then asked her to help prepare some hot bath water and food.
The maid was not very willing when she first saw Yang Yi's messy clothes, but after receiving Yang Yi's tip, she immediately said happily to Yang Yi: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely prepare it for you right away." Then he bent over and walked out quickly.You must know that the per capita annual income in this era is only about twenty pounds, and one pound is equal to twelve shillings, while the monthly income of a maid is less than ten shillings, so the three shillings Yang Yi gave her It's really a big income.
Yang Yi has a lot of money now, so he doesn't care about the small money, anyway, he is willing to give it to make his life better.In fact, with Yang Yi's current net worth, he can buy a castle, but if a gangster suddenly becomes so rich, he will definitely attract attention from others, so Yang Yi doesn't even dare to stay in a better hotel. After all, this is a feudal society. Power is very important. If a person with money but no power appears out of thin air, it is estimated that he will not know how he died.In fact, Yang Yi is really used to living the life of ordinary people. In his previous life, even when his stepmother was so beautiful, their family only lived in an ordinary small villa, and he only wore a few second- and third-rate clothes at most. So if he were to live in a luxuriously decorated hotel now, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
The maid took the money, and the action was really fast. Within a few minutes, some food that looked good was served. Although it was only ham, bread, and a cup of hot milk, it was indeed very good food for Yang Yi now. After all, George Wickham really doesn't know how to take care of himself. He spends his money on gambling and drinking on weekdays, and hasn't eaten meat for several days.
Yang Yi ate a warm meal with satisfaction, and now he was lazy, just as the maid brought bath water with someone, Yang Yi let them take the plate away and took a hot bath in satisfaction.
After taking a bath, Yang Yi lay on the bed, the quilt exuded the smell of sunshine and smelled very comfortable, which largely made up for the fact that it had started to turn yellow due to being used for too long and washed too many times .
Yang Yi began to plan his future life while touching his fingers. Although he really didn't want to see that Mr. Darcy, the truth was that he had to follow the plot in some aspects for a better life.At least he will stay near Mr. Darcy or the heroine Elizabeth Bennet when the story takes place, and then go back to his own little life after the two get married.Otherwise, who knows whether the plot will change direction because of him as a butterfly, and whether there will be things that are not good for him, so it is obviously not good for his life.
As for whether he wants to join the army, anyway, Yang Yi doesn't remember the name of the chief of the army, and it's inconvenient to find it, so Yang Yi thinks it's better to live at a place separated from Longbourn, so that as long as he doesn't take the initiative Go out, then Darcy will not know that George Wickham is there, and he can clearly know what happened at Bennet's house.
Yang Yi got up early the next morning. He found the best looking clothes from the box and put them on, then went downstairs to have breakfast.It happened that the maid who served him yesterday was the one who served the dishes, so Yang Yi inquired about the good tailor shops and insoles nearby, and of course the post station. He needed to hire a carriage.The maid knew these things very well, so she quickly answered Yang Yi's question.
After dinner, Yang Yi followed what the maid said, and found a clothing store two streets away from the hotel. This is a store that specializes in mid-range ready-made clothing. Generally, people with a little money are suitable for coming here. Obviously, yesterday Yang Yi gave The maid's tip of three shillings made the maid think that Yang Yi is the kind of person who has a little money.
Yang Yi was also very satisfied with this store, he quickly selected five sets of better clothes from this store, and then changed a set on the spot, and sent others to that hotel.Then Yang Yi went to buy shoes, hats, gloves, and some odds and ends, and went to a small restaurant for lunch on the way.By the time everything was bought, it was already one or two o'clock in the afternoon.
Yang Yi saw that he might not be able to leave today, so he rented a carriage at the post station and asked the coachman to pick him up at the hotel tomorrow morning.Now Yang Yi defines himself as a small businessman who can earn two to three hundred pounds a year, and now he is going to settle in Longbourn.
The next morning, Yang Yi put on new clothes and looked in the mirror. You must know that George Wickham had a good face, but because he was always dressed in sloppy clothes, he didn't pay attention to personal hygiene, and his whole body Drowsy is very gloomy and looks bad.Now that Yang Yi is dressed like this, coupled with the good temperament he cultivated since he was a child, he is a handsome young man. It is estimated that the two friends of George Wickham before saw it and thought they were just two people with similar looks.
The coachman arrived very early, and after helping Yang Yi carry the few luggage onto the carriage, he obediently sat on the side and waited for Yang Yi to have breakfast.
The coachman was a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, full of vigor. He looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he was very strong. Because of the long-term exposure to the wind and sun, he had a wheat-colored skin.This guy looks good, with big eyes, and two dimples when he smiles. Of course, he has the freckles that are common for white people, but there are not many, just a little on the bridge of the nose, which makes him look Even more lovely.That's why Yang Yi hired him yesterday, because the other coachmen looked like bad old men or rough men. For Yang Yi, the good-looking people around him would undoubtedly make him happy.
"What's your name?" Yang Yi waved to the coachman, let him sit opposite to him, then handed him a piece of bread, and asked.
"My name is William Edward, sir. Thank you for the bread." William was not restrained, took a bite of the bread, and said with a smile.
"How old are you, William?"
"Eighteen, sir, don't look down on me. I have been in this business for three years, and I have a good brain, memorize roads quickly, and I can drive well." William took another big bite of bread, chewed Chew said.
Yang Yi liked this kid very much. He was still in high school when he was himself, and he would never even think about raising a family. However, William had already come out to work at a young age, and Yang Yi could tell that he was I really enjoy doing this job.
"I see you are happy to do this job, you came so early."
"That is, when I was very young, I followed my mother to work on the farm. Later, when there was a factory, I followed my mother to work in the textile factory. It was very tiring. I worked all day long. I don't earn two or three pennies. Now I am a coachman, and I can earn five or six shillings for a long trip. Wouldn’t it be nice to earn at least one pound? And I don’t feel tired at all as long as I look at the road and move my hands while driving.” William said with a smile, and then ate the small bread, even The bread crumbs that fell on the tablecloth were also put into his mouth.
Seeing his unfinished look, Yang Yi asked, "Didn't you have breakfast, William?"
"It's still so early. Only rich people like Mr. have breakfast. Poor people don't have breakfast, and they will get hungry soon after eating so early. It's better to eat it at noon, which can save money." You can have breakfast without delaying your work." William shrugged and said as a matter of course.
"So what do you eat at noon, we can't get to the hotel at least in the evening?"
"I have brown bread and water with me, and I can eat it on the road." William said his poor food indifferently.
George Wickham had eaten black bread, it was not like the processed coarse grains of the later generations, the black bread of this era was not tasty at all, it was rough and tasteless, and it was usually eaten with salt, it was really disgusting Hard to swallow.Yang Yi likes this young man very much, and feels that if he employs this young man, he can be regarded as his boss, and he is obliged to provide some benefits for the employees.So before they set off on the road, Yang Yi deliberately brought a small basket of wheat bread for William to eat. Although it was not a very good thing, it was for the poor who had black bread and cabbage soup for every meal. Saying that is a really good thing.
William felt that he was quite lucky. Generally, businessmen were relatively powerful. They always asked the drivers to drive well and cheaply when they called carriages. Argue for a long time.But now the gentleman he was carrying was very generous. He was chosen among more than a dozen coachmen, and he didn’t say much. The most important thing was that he gave him bread and butter in the morning. He was happy to buy himself a wheat loaf or two at Christmas, and as for butter, he could smell it.
William felt that the sun was very good today, and he hummed a country song in a good mood.Yang Yi dozed off in the carriage in a daze. In his previous life, Yang Yi was good at everything, but he liked to sleep late. This problem has also been brought over in this life. In addition, this body itself is also lazy, so it lasted for two days. Waking up early, now Yang Yi only feels that his upper eyelids keep falling down, accompanied by William's slow singing that is almost like a lullaby, he is even more sleepy.
It was already noon when William knocked on the car window and woke Yang Yi up. William shouted with a smile: "Mr. Wickham, it's already noon, you should wake up and eat something."
Yang Yi rubbed his eyes, it turned out that he fell asleep with the suitcase on his back just now, but now he woke up really hungry.Yang Yi took the bamboo basket on the opposite chair and stool, in which were some cold ham, sausage, bread, and two small bottles of milk, these were his lunch, although Yang Yi had no appetite looking at these rough foods , but there is nothing to pay attention to now, the entire British nobles eat these things, but the ingredients are better.
Yang Yi looked at William through the small glass window, and sure enough, he was holding a piece of black bread the size of a plate and gnawing on it.Yang Yi opened the window, handed over another small bamboo basket, and shouted: "There are some wheat bread here, William, eat this!"
William turned his head in a daze, staring at the small bamboo basket covered with blue cloth behind him, apparently he did not expect that Yang Yi would give him bread, which was beyond his expectation, "No, sir, I have black bread, No need for these good wheat breads."
"You can take it here. I can't eat it at noon anyway, and I won't eat it when I arrive at the hotel at night. In this kind of weather, it will probably be bad by tomorrow." Yang Yi said without retracting his hand.It's September now, the weather is still relatively hot, and the climate in the UK is relatively humid, so the food really can't be kept for too long.
"Thank you very much for this, Mr. Wickham." William said with a smile after receiving it.
"There's nothing to be thankful for, food is for eating."
The maid was not very willing when she first saw Yang Yi's messy clothes, but after receiving Yang Yi's tip, she immediately said happily to Yang Yi: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely prepare it for you right away." Then he bent over and walked out quickly.You must know that the per capita annual income in this era is only about twenty pounds, and one pound is equal to twelve shillings, while the monthly income of a maid is less than ten shillings, so the three shillings Yang Yi gave her It's really a big income.
