Pride and Prejudice accident

When Andrea woke up the next day, the maid hadn't come to call her. She yawned and went to the window and opened the curtains, and saw her dear little sister was with the popular Weco from last night. Mr Ham appeared to be having a good time as they walked side by side among the flowers in the backyard.Maria is twisting her handkerchief with both hands, which is a sign of her nervousness. Of course, it is impossible for her not to be nervous. After all, every look of Mr. Wickham's eyes now emits at least one hundred thousand Ford of electricity. If he stays in the girls' school fresh It is strange that Maria, who has little contact with men outside Mayfair Village, is not nervous!Andrea, who is now blushing, can see clearly even if she stands upstairs.

This is not the scene that Andrea wants to see on a sunny morning. Her sister is indeed at the age where she can have a little deeper contact with a man and then fall in love, but the man who is her first love must not It was Mr. Wickham, a man who knew at first glance that he was very good at mingling among flowers.Andrea thinks that Maria's first love should be a real man like their father or brother-in-law John, or any ordinary man in Mayfair, so as to reduce the possibility of her being hurt.Mr. Wickham has a pretty face and is very eloquent. At present, it seems that he is quite suitable to be a businessman. Obviously, if this kind of man is not really in love with Maria, even if Maria is sold by him, he will probably still be willing. help him count the money.

Andrea immediately pulled the bell rope beside the bed, and soon the maid who heard the bell rang downstairs came up with a basin of wash water.

"Miss, I'm sorry, Ma'am asked me to help pick up vegetables in the kitchen, I forgot the time." The maid Larry put down the washbasin and apologized as she opened the other curtains in the room.

"It's okay. What's going on downstairs? That Mr. Wickham seems to please Maria quite a bit." Andrea asked after washing up.

"Yes, Miss Maria and Mr. Wickham had a discussion about a writer at breakfast just now, and they hit it off very well, so Mr. Wickham invited Miss Maria to take a walk in the yard , and continue their discussion," Larry replied.

"Really? Are Mom and Dad awake?"

"Master took Mr. Richard and Mr. Wakeman to the town of Worsteen, and the lady just came downstairs."

"I see, you go down and prepare my breakfast, I'll go downstairs right away," Andrea said.

A few minutes later, Andrea went downstairs. Mrs. Ferguson had finished her breakfast and sat in the living room to start making new spring clothes for Joe. Andrea sat alone in the dining room, looking at the backyard through the window. Maria and Wickham, who seem to be chatting very well here.

What Wickham is best at is deceiving those little country girls. Originally, he planned to deceive Andrea, because from yesterday's observation, it can be seen that Mr. Ferguson obviously likes Andrea more. Leah's dowry should be more than Maria's.But this morning Wickham chatted with the maid who brought him face water, and he knew that Andrea already had a rich man who pursued her, so when he had breakfast, he saw Maria who got up early , he immediately turned his target to Maria.

I have to say that the estate of the Ferguson family is much better than that of the Bennet family. There are also some expensive flowers planted in the backyard, and the scenery is not bad.Wickham stood beside a bunch of camellia trees half a person tall, and asked, "Miss Maria, can I pick these beautiful flowers?"

"Okay, but don't pick too much." Maria said with her head half down. In fact, she was more at a loss than shy. Some of Wickham's words and deeds are not like her who has been in a strict environment all year round. Little girls in girls' schools can adapt.But apparently Mr. Wickham thought of Maria as one of those Longbourn ladies who would be hooked if he gave him a smile and a few nice words that weren't too sweet.

"I'll just pick one," said Wickham, and plucked a budding camellia from the pink camellia tree.

"Mr. Wickham, how do you pick this one?" asked Maria, who thought Wickham would pick the freshly bloomed flowers.

Wickham looked at the camellia in his hand, pinched the flower stem with his fingers and twirled it, and said with a smile on his lips: "Because I want to give this flower to you, Miss Maria, you are like this camellia It's just as beautiful and lovely!" He said and put the camellia flower under his nose and smelled it.

"Oh, Mr. Wickham, you can't praise Maria like that, she will be proud!" Andrea said as she walked along the path.

"Ms. Ferguson, good morning. I'm telling the truth. Miss Maria is really a very lovely lady. She deserves such praise." Wickham said, but the camellia in his hand was not delivered at all. He went out, but put the hand holding the camellia behind his back.

"Mr. Wickham, I have something to discuss with Maria, you don't mind if I take her away!" Andrea said with a smile, holding Maria's hand.

"Of course, please, I have to wander around the yard for a while, the flowers here are really beautiful." Wickham said.

"Then please just enjoy the beauty of this spring, Mr. Wickham!" Andrea pulled Maria into the house after finishing speaking, and dragged her upstairs all the way.

"Annie, what do you want from me?" Maria breathed a sigh of relief because she stayed away from Wickham. The last behavior of that gentleman really disgusted her, and she even felt a little offended. She and Will Coham only knew each other yesterday, but this gentleman acted too familiar.

"It's nothing, I just don't want you to get too close to that Mr. Wickham. This gentleman can be seen as a seasoned veteran. You are only 16 years old. I don't want you to be deceived." Andre Ya said that she also saw Wickham smelling the camellia at the end, which was a bit too much. A real gentleman would not be like this on the first day he met a lady.

"Don't worry, I don't like such a gentleman. At first I really thought he was going to discuss philosophy with me, but then I realized that he didn't seem to be interested in philosophy, but I couldn't leave rashly. I feel bad. Fortunately, you pulled me in, otherwise I really don't know how to treat that camellia. This is really embarrassing!" Maria said.

"Fortunately, they will leave in two days. As long as you try not to leave your room except for meal time, you can avoid embarrassment when you see Mr. Wickham."

"I think so too." Maria nodded, and for the next two days she hardly stepped out of her room except for meals, which made Mrs. Ferguson think that Maria was sick.

Two days later, Mr. Richard left Mayfair with Mr. Wickman and Wickham, but Mr. Ferguson and Andrea and Maria were also with him.Mr. Ferguson went to London with him, one is to meet Mr. Evans, the owner of the racetrack, so as to maintain the future business relationship, and the other is that Mr. Richard really wants to open another shop in London, which is related to livelihood It is a big deal, so Mr. Richard hoped that Mr. Ferguson could help him to refer to it, so that he would not be too excited to buy a shop that he himself looked good but actually was not very good.

As for Andrea and Maria, they just went to play for a few days.Originally, Mrs. Ferguson also wanted to go together, but she thought that Louisa was just pregnant and needed a lot of care, so she stayed in Mayfair.

The journey was still pleasant, except that Wickham found every opportunity to get close to Maria and showed his hospitality.But almost every time he was blocked by Andrea's few words, which made Wickham very upset for a while, but he didn't realize that his charm was of no use to Maria.

The atmosphere at the Gardiner’s house in London has become better these two days. Mr. Campbell has been visiting Jane at the Gardiner’s house almost every day since he found out that Jane was pregnant. Jane didn’t see him at first, but the relationship between the two The relationship has progressed very well.The reason was that Jane started to suffer from morning sickness, she couldn't eat anything, and was quite weak every day. Mr. Campbell would personally ask the doctor to check on Jane at Gardiner's house every day, and tried his best to find some delicious food for her. simple.Of course, Jane didn't have this kind of good fortune. Those things were all eaten by the two young daughters of the Bennet family and the children of the Gardiner family. For this reason, Kitty and Lydia liked Mr. Campbell more and more.

Elizabeth still has a certain amount of hostility towards Mr. Campbell. Every time Mr. Campbell meets Elizabeth, he doesn't get a good look. Mr. Campbell didn't like his future wife and sister very much. Even those noble ladies never showed such expressions to him.

One day Elizabeth was sitting by the window of the living room reading a book, and Lydia came in bouncing in with Kitty. She smiled and sat on the sofa and said to Elizabeth: "Lissie, I heard good news. Do you listen?"

"Recently, there is no better news for me than Jane eating a meal comfortably." Elizabeth said in a low voice without raising her head.

"Oh! My mother said that pregnant people are like this. There is nothing to worry about. Besides, Mr. Campbell brings her delicious food every time. I think she is very happy." Lydia said indifferently, but Immediately, she saw Elizabeth's dark face, and immediately changed the subject, "Let me tell you my good news. I went to Brooke's house today, and he told me that Wickham will return to London in two days. , It’s really great, I can play with him again.”

"Who is Brooke, and shouldn't Mr. Wickham go to the militia camp at Longbourn?" Elizabeth asked suspiciously.

"Brook is a friend of Wickham's. He lived there after he left his uncle's house. As for the militia battalion, Wickham is no longer a militiaman. He is now in business, buying horses for a racecourse. I’ve made a lot of money, it’s really amazing.” Lydia said with her face in her hands, she almost fell in love with Wickham at first sight, and this feeling didn’t change even after Wickham fell in love with Elizabeth , she only wanted to be with Wickham, as long as she found an opportunity, this lady would definitely be desperate.

"I don't think that buying horses for the racecourse can make much money. After all, he didn't raise the horses, and he didn't pay for the horses. He just ran errands." Elizabeth said, since Elizabeth felt that she fell in love with Darcy Sir, after the affection for Wickham became cold, she began to treat Wickham as if she treated people who did not like her, so in her heart Elizabeth did not admit that she had betrayed what had just begun between them. emotion.

"Lixi, how can you say that about him? Didn't you treat Wickham very well before, why did you go to Hunsford once and came back and changed your address to Mr. Wickham, and now you say this even more Lizzie, since you don't like Wickham, don't pester him, I know you don't like people in the militia, so go find a rich nobleman like Mr. Darcy!" Lisa Dia suddenly stood up, pointed at Elizabeth and shouted.

"Lydia, what nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Wickham and I are just friends, and I don't look down on the militia, let alone go to any noble lord." Elizabeth said with a straight face. The youngest sister, Elizabeth always felt that she was embarrassing herself, and now she was extremely angry when she heard Lydia's words.

"I'm not talking nonsense. You have high eyesight. Do you think I don't know? When Mr. Darcy was around, you always showed disdain, but your eyes kept staring at Mr. Darcy. If you hadn't disliked Mr. Darcy's bad temper and looked down on people like us, would you have taken a fancy to Wickham?" Lydia asked.

"You are simply unreasonable! I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore. If you say such things again, I will tell my father." Elizabeth closed the book with a "snap", stood up and went back upstairs angrily.

As soon as Elizabeth left, Lydia burst into tears. In the whole family, only Elizabeth could make Lydia sad.Kitty shook her head, sighed, and went upstairs. Lydia's temper came and went quickly, so ignore her, and she would be fine in a few minutes.
