Pride and Prejudice accident
Chapter 19
When Mr. Collins came back from the Lucas's, the dinner at the Bennet's was just over. Mary went back to her room with her book. Mr Denny and Mr Wickham.Of course, the most important thing is to find Mr. Wickham. This new officer is really handsome, and he has an aristocratic temperament that only a young master of a rich family has. He is very tactful and very likable.
For the first time today, Mrs. Bennet did not greet Mr. Collins with a smile, because she was sitting on the sofa by the fireplace and shed tears. This time, the lady was really sad. During dinner, Banner What Mr. Te said to her at the end really made her feel heartbroken.Although she pays attention to money, she is not completely indifferent to Mr. Bennet, and they have been husband and wife for so many years. Although she is not a qualified wife and mother, she has tried her best to do it.But what Mr. Bennet said just now meant that there was nothing in their marriage that satisfied him at all, as if their marriage was just unbearable to him.
Mrs. Bennet cried more and more sadly, but no one came to persuade her, which inevitably made her feel even more wronged.Although Mrs. Bennet is not smart, she still knows Mr. Bennet's indifference to her over the years, but she has not given birth to an heir, so it is inevitable that she will be a little guilty. Mr. Bennet often speaks sarcastically to her She didn't care about it, but today all these grievances broke out in one brain.
Mr. Collins stood in the living room and looked at Mrs. Bennet at a loss. It was not the first time that this lady had cried in front of him, but this time she did not cry as sharply and exaggeratedly as before, but actually She was weeping silently, but her two little daughters sat on the sofa not far from Mrs. Bennet laughing and didn't care about their mother at all, as if they didn't see it at all.
Mr. Collins originally just wanted to say hello and went upstairs, but Mrs. Bennet's appearance was obviously not suitable for disturbing, so Mr. Collins hesitated and planned to leave, but was seen by the sharp-eyed Mrs. Bennet.
"Mr. Collins, you are back. Did you have dinner at Lucas's house?" Mrs. Bennet asked, wiping her red and swollen eyes.
"Yes, Mrs. Bennet, what's the matter with you, what's wrong?" Mr. Collins nodded, looking at Mrs. Bennet's listless look.
Normally, Mrs. Bennet would definitely yell about my poor nerves, but this time Mrs. Bennet held her chest and said weakly: "I feel a little tight in my chest, and I can't breathe."
Mr. Collins took a look at Mrs. Bennet's face, she was indeed a little pale, and said, "Should the servants call for the doctor?"
Mrs. Bennet waved her hands immediately after hearing this. Her nerves have been in constant pain for decades and she has only consulted a doctor once. The cost of medical treatment is even more expensive. Some minor ailments and ordinary people just get over it. Who would go out of their way to invite a doctor.
Mr. Collins felt it was wrong, because Mrs. Bennet's complexion was really bad, and she looked a little out of breath. Just about to persuade her, Elizabeth came over with a menacing look.
Elizabeth is really hungry and angry now. She heard Mrs. Bennet's words when she went downstairs, and she was very angry on the spot. Mrs. Bennet's words seemed to mean that Elizabeth could not get married.But she is neither Charlotte nor Mary, she has good looks, she has read many books and has wisdom and opinions that ordinary ladies do not have. Her husband pursued her, and she did not think that she would not find a good husband.
And Elizabeth felt that the facts proved that she was qualified enough. The former Mr. Darcy, who earned more than 1 pounds a year, would stare at her from time to time since the second ball, although she pretended not to care every time. In fact, he has been paying attention. After all, apart from Mr. Darcy's bad character and personality, his appearance and identity are indeed an attractive gentleman. Any lady will be secretly proud of being noticed by such a gentleman.And Wickham, who is now popular with Miss All Longburn, is always willing to get close to her. The gentleman even told her at the beginning of his painful life experience and Mr. Darcy and Miss Darcy's love for him. The unfair treatment of her is enough to prove the gentleman's special affection for her.
"Mom, I have to tell you clearly today that I will never listen to you. I am your daughter, not your servant. I have no obligation to listen to your nonsense. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for me Find any man you want and marry, don't try to give me a mess." Elizabeth said loudly, pointing at Mrs. Bennet with a straight face.
Mr. Collins stood aside and listened frowning. Elizabeth usually looked pretty, but at the moment she was speaking extremely meanly to her mother with a straight face and disrespect. What she said was also quite mean and ugly, Bennet The wife didn't do anything to her, but she blamed her mother so much.And who is the messy person referring to? It seems that he hasn't messed with this lady these days!
Being scolded so harshly by her daughter in front of the guests, Mrs. Bennet stared angrily and panted. She couldn't believe that Elizabeth would treat her like this.
After attacking Mrs. Bennet, Elizabeth immediately turned the gun and looked at Mr. Collins with contempt and disdain, and said in a disgusted and resolute tone: "Mr. Collins, please listen carefully, even if I die, I will never May marry you, please die this heart!"
Mr. Collins raised his eyebrows, crossed his arms and looked at Elizabeth with a sneer, and said, "Miss Elizabeth, I think you are too arrogant. You are indeed pretty, but I have seen many beauties. You can't even rank in it. What gave you the confidence that I must marry you? Where did your ridiculous self-confidence come from? To tell you the truth, when I go back, I will be the whole The managing pastor of Ford County will do more in the future. What kind of lady I want to marry will not be able to marry?
What do you have, Miss Elizabeth, but a fair face?Is it your stupid mind that you think is smart, or your own bad character that you think is beautiful, or the little dowry you think you can afford?I can also tell you clearly that even if all the women in this world die and you are the only one left, I won't take a second look at you.I wanted to marry you just because of the face that I would inherit your family's property in the future, and I kindly wanted to keep you from losing too much. Since you don't accept my kindness, then I will follow the law Collect my property.Also, since Miss Elizabeth thinks that she can find a better husband, then I don't think there will be any need for compensation after I inherit the Bennet family in the future. "
After listening to Mr. Collins' words, Elizabeth was trembling with anger. Probably since she was born, she had never heard anyone criticize her so sharply. Her lips trembled and she couldn't even speak.
Mr. Collins smiled badly at Elizabeth, and planned to go back to his room to pack his luggage, and then live in Lucas's house tomorrow. He thought that Mr. Lucas, his future business partner, would definitely give him a warm welcome.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Before Mr. Collins walked out of the living room, Kitty screamed from behind him. He turned his head and saw that Mrs. Bennet had passed out clutching her chest, and hurried over to check.
"Get someone to call for the doctor, Kitty, and call for your father." Mr. Collins commanded while pressing Mrs. Bennet's crowd.
The first conflict between the Bennet family and Mr. Collins ended with Mrs. Bennet fainting from anger. Mr. Collins packed his few luggage and went to the Lucas family early the next morning because Bennet He was really uncomfortable with the glare of his husband and Elizabeth's disgusted look at him.The doctor said that the reason why Mrs. Bennet fainted so easily was that she had been suffering from neurasthenia for several years, but she had never received treatment, and she probably didn't have a good rest recently, so she was out of breath and went into temporary shock.This is basically none of Mr. Collins' business, but Mr. Bennet and Elizabeth clearly blamed Mr. Collins for the fault.
Speaking of the relationship between Mr. Collins and the Lucas family, there is still some drama. At the beginning, Mr. Collins tried his best to avoid Miss Lucas who came to him very proactively, but he couldn't avoid it several times.During the chat between the two, Mr. Collins felt that, apart from Miss Lucas's views on his target husband and her plans for future married life, which made him uncomfortable, in fact, this lady is extremely thoughtful, which is rare in this age. A girl with a strong opinion, Mr. Collins felt that if Miss Lucas was born in later generations, she might be able to create a career.
As for the intersection with Sir Lucas, it was purely coincidental.Disliking the atmosphere of the Bennet house, Mr. Collins either hid in his room or stayed outside until he approached Mr. Bennet to explain the matter of inheritance.That time when he went for a walk, he happened to meet Miss Lucas who was walking with Sir Lucas. The two greeted each other and started chatting casually. Thinking of Sir Lucas, he began to talk about his business experience, saying that if he didn't want to let his children have a better status, he would definitely open several factories and do a good job in big business.
Mr. Collins planned to come here a few days after he was reborn. He doesn't believe in God, and he doesn't like the profession of a pastor, so it is impossible for him to be a pastor for the rest of his life.However, he himself did not inherit the land from his parents, but only a manor, so he did not have much fixed property. If he did not become a pastor, he would have to sit and eat, and at most sell the old manor.
In this era, other jobs are not easy to find. There are only a few options available, such as lawyers, doctors, professors, etc. In the end, Mr. Collins found that the only job he can do is to be a businessman. The wife's contacts know more people, and after he has accumulated enough capital and understands the business rules and legal provisions of this era, he can use the financial major he learned before to do business.
After meeting Sir Lucas, Mr. Collins planned to advance his plan. He could cooperate with Mr. Lucas, Mr. Lucas would provide experience, and he could provide contacts and replace Mr. Lucas.Therefore, the two have talked many times about future cooperation matters in the past few days. Mr. Collins has to go to Lucas's house every day, and he has to sit for a day and a half, which makes the talkative women outside all speculate. Good things are near for Mr. Collins and Miss Lucas.
For the first time today, Mrs. Bennet did not greet Mr. Collins with a smile, because she was sitting on the sofa by the fireplace and shed tears. This time, the lady was really sad. During dinner, Banner What Mr. Te said to her at the end really made her feel heartbroken.Although she pays attention to money, she is not completely indifferent to Mr. Bennet, and they have been husband and wife for so many years.
