Miss Elizabeth Goldfinger Bennet

Chapter 10

Mr. Bennet at home has made Elizabeth feel sad, but now she is walking on a country road with her young wife.Finding a small place where they often stayed, the two sat down and rested. Elizabeth took out some snacks she made and put them in front of Andrew, letting him choose what he liked.

"Sister, don't you like that Cousin Collins?" Little Andrew was always sensitive to his sister's likes and dislikes.

"Then what is Andrew's impression of Cousin Collins?"

"Arrogance, although he is talking about how rich and friendly his benefactor is, but most of this is to make us feel how high his status is now; flattery, which can be seen in his compliments to his benefactor and mother It can be seen; he is stupid, his flattering is very poor, which disgusts his father and sister. Am I right, sister?" Andrew counted his fingers and finished his thoughts, and looked up at Elizabeth begging for praise.

That cute bun face made Elizabeth want to call it cute, but in order to maintain the image of her eldest sister, Elizabeth suppressed the urge to move in her heart.

"Andrew is quite right. Mr. Collins is not a reasonable man. He spent most of his life under the guidance of his illiterate father who was a miser. Although he was also educated and stepped into the society, his congenital The defects are hardly made up for. The education a person receives in the early stage is the most important. A person's conduct and temperament are shaped during this period, especially the precepts and deeds of the parents. In the eyes of children, parents are their first teachers. Mr. Collins, even with a college education, he still can't change his father's imprint on him. Andrew, that's why father and I have brought you by your side since you were very young, although the son does not speak the mother But my mother's words and deeds are really troublesome. Catherine and Lydia are influenced by their mother. Now many of their behaviors are very uneducated. And you are different from them. You are the heir of the Bennett family. If you let Of course, my father and I can’t feel at ease staying by my mother’s side for a long time.”

"Sister, I know, I know what outsiders say about my mother." Andrew was in a gloomy mood.

"Andrew, I know that maybe many people don't like their mothers, but as children, we must be filial to our parents. A person's character can be roughly seen from whether he is filial. If a person doesn't even care about the parents he gave birth to, then What else would he care about, friends, lovers? None, he only loves himself. It doesn’t matter how successful such a person is, he doesn’t love anyone, and no one will love him. Andrew will make friends and marry Wives can look at this aspect of them. The Bennett family will be up to you in the future, and you must know that the status of our sisters in the husband's family is directly related to the quality of the Bennett family. You will be the sisters in the future backing."

"Sister, I will definitely work hard. Sister Eliza, what kind of person will you marry in the future?" In Andrew's heart, his second sister is a perfect existence.He wondered what kind of gentleman would be worthy of her.

"This elder sister doesn't know either. It's fate to meet thousands of miles away, but it's hard to hold hands if you don't have the fate. But no matter whether my sister will marry or not, she will always be the second lady of the Bennet family. You will always be my Elizabeth's younger brother. Alright , we should go back, there are guests at home, it's not very polite for us to be out for too long." The two packed up and walked back.

"Sister, I haven't learned the nursery rhyme you taught me, can you sing it to me again?"

"Okay, listen up.

Twinkle, twinkle, littlestar,

How I wonder what you are.

Up above the world so high,

Like adiamondinthesky.

Twinkle, twinkle, littlestar,

How I wonder what you are!......."

The beautiful singing gradually disappeared as the two brothers and sisters went away, and a man walked out of the corner next to the place where they were resting just now. It was Mr. Darcy. Bingley couldn't say anything about the reason, so he found an excuse to go out to relax.A man walked aimlessly, completely unaware that he was going in the direction of Bennett House.Until he accidentally saw Elizabeth taking Andrew to rest, he didn't know why he was eavesdropping so shamelessly, but he just did it.Listening to Elizabeth's education of the heir to the Bennet House, Darcy was once again overwhelmed by Elizabeth's wisdom. Listening to their conversation, Darcy can easily see that the heir to the Bennet House is very good. Given his current age, Darcy knows Under the education of his sister, this little boy has learned to see people and learn to distinguish right from wrong. Darcy is very sure that most of the education of Mr. Bennett is Elizabeth's handwriting, because the quality of other Bennett family members cannot reach this level.Miss Elizabeth has long experienced Mr. Darcy's maintenance of her family.

Mr. Darcy thinks that Elizabeth is so dedicated to teaching his younger brother, what if it is his own child?If the heir of the Darcy family had been educated by Elizabeth, he would certainly be better than little Mr. Bennet.Darcy also thought that the nursery rhyme sung by Elizabeth was obviously composed by himself, which not only shows Miss Elizabeth's excellent musical talent, but also shows her love for little Mr. Bennet.Such a thought set Mr. Darcy on fire, but he wanted to see what goodness he had not seen in this Miss Elizabeth.

By supper Elizabeth had fully understood the reasons for Mr. Collins' visit to Bennet Hall, and Mr. Collins thought he now had a fine house, a decent income, and intended to marry.The reason why he wanted to make peace with the Langborn family was to find a wife in their house.If the ladies in this family were as beautiful and lovely as everyone had said, he must choose one.In his opinion, he is the best choice for the daughter of the Bennet House with a small dowry.So when he saw these ladies, as soon as he saw the beautiful faces of Jane and Elizabeth, he made up his mind to choose one of the two ladies, and because of his old-fashioned ideas, he thought that everything should be married to the eldest. a lady fromIn addition, Elizabeth's temperament made him feel uncomfortable, so he chose Jane the first night.But he changed his mind the next morning, for after talking intimately for a quarter of an hour with Mrs. Bennet, beginning with his own vicarage, he confessed his wish spontaneously, saying It was to find a lady at Longborn, and one among her daughters-in-law.Mrs. Bennet smiled kindly and encouraged him, but she could not help calling his attention to his choice of Jane. "When it comes to my younger daughters, I have nothing to say--of course I can't say yes--but I haven't heard of them. As for my eldest daughter, I have to mention--I think I have the responsibility to remind you—the eldest daughter may be engaged soon." Although Mrs. Bennet regards marrying her daughter as her ultimate goal in life, she still knows it at least. Although Mr. Collins is very talkative to please her Happy but nothing compared to Mr. Bingley.

Mr. Collins had to put Jane aside and choose Elizabeth instead, and he chose at once--in the instant Mrs. Bennet poked the fire.Regardless of age or beauty, Elizabeth is no worse than Jane. Of course, it will be her turn to be the second.

Mrs. Bennet took this hint as a treasure, and she believed that two daughters would soon be married; a man whom she had been reluctant to mention yesterday now commanded her utmost importance.

Lydia had talked of going to Meryton Branch, and she had not yet dismissed the idea.Except for Mary, all the sisters were willing to go with her, and Elizabeth also agreed to go with the sisters in order to get rid of Mr. Collins who suddenly entangled her.But unexpectedly, Mr. Bennet asked Mr. Collins to go with them in order to drive Mr. Collins away so that he could clean up in the study for a while.It turned out that after breakfast, Mr. Collins followed him to the study, and stayed there until then, not wanting to leave. He was nominally looking at the large folio in his collection, but in fact he was talking endlessly with Mr. Bennet. Disturbed Mr. Bennet by talking about his own Hunsford house and gardens.He usually stays in the study just to try to be leisurely and clean.He had told Elizabeth that he would accept foolish and conceited fellows in any room, but the study would not allow such persons.He therefore at once respectfully begged Mr. Collins to accompany his daughters for a walk, and Mr. Collins, who was fit to be a walker rather than a reader, closed his book very gladly and went away.When Elizabeth got the news of the tragedy, she was ready to go.It would be really rude to say no now.

Mr. Collins lived up to everyone's expectations and talked nonsense along the way, and Jane and the others had to politely agree, and thus passed the time and came to Meryton.As soon as the younger cousins ​​got there, they stopped paying attention to him.Immediately their eyes turned to the street to see if any officers were passing by, and they were attracted only by the most beautiful bonnets in the shop windows, or the latest flowered cloths.

The air pressure in Elizabeth's whole body is very low now. What's the reason? An idiot next to her is chattering stupid things, and Elizabeth's smile is about to be distorted. Stupidity is nothing, but stupidity doesn't know it, and it's showing off all the time What a fool, Mr. Collins, he is so incapable of looking at people!If Elizabeth had ordered the bodyguards to throw him far away in the previous life, she would never want to see such a retarded person again.

Not far from them, Bingley and Darcy were walking slowly leading their horses.

Bingley's eyes lit up when he saw the young ladies of the Bennet family, but Darcy stopped in his tracks and clenched his hands behind his back into fists.

"My God, it's Jane, I'm so lucky to meet her here! How long has it been since I've seen her? Seven or eight days? It feels like seven or eight years to me!" he said, walking towards them , but was held by Darcy's arm.

"What's the matter?" Bingley asked curiously.

Darcy stared straight at Collins who was "talking and laughing happily" with Elizabeth, his face was so heavy that water dripped out.He stood there with his back straight and did not speak for a long time.If Elizabeth knew Mr. Darcy's thoughts, she would definitely yell. Your sister is talking and laughing, and now my mother really wants to let this idiot go as far as possible.

Seeing him standing still, Bingley thought Darcy did not want to go and greet Miss Bennet, and persuaded him:

"It would be really impolite for Darcy not to say hello if he sees her. You must know that Miss Elizabeth is not very friendly to you!"

It has to be said that Mr. Bingley just hit Darcy's weakness. Even Bingley, who is dull, can feel Elizabeth's "unfriendliness" towards Darcy, let alone Darcy who has a heart for Elizabeth.Thereupon Darcy and Mr. Bingley came up to the Bennet sisters, and made the usual greetings, Bingley taking the lead, and speaking most of his words to Miss Bennet.He said he was on his way to Longborn to visit her.Darcy proved that he was not lying, and bowed at the same time.Darcy was just about to take his eyes off Elizabeth when he caught sight of the stranger.The two of them looked at each other in shock, and Elizabeth was very surprised to see this encounter.The faces of the two changed, one was pale, the other flushed. After a while, Mr. Wickham pressed his hat, and Mr. Darcy reluctantly returned the salute.What does it mean?It is impossible to imagine, and it is impossible not to inquire about it.After a while, Mr. Bingley bade them good-bye in a nonchalant way, and rode away with his friend.

Elizabeth did see that there should be some festival between the two, and it was not in vain to see Mr. Darcy change his face today.Elizabeth thought wickedly.As for the brown sugar Elizabeth next to her, she is running out of patience, Mr. Collins, you'd better be more sensible.
