[Pride and Prejudice] Enemy of the World
Chapter 32 Meeting
It rained at night, and as expected by Mrs. Bennett, Jane, who went to Netherfield for a banquet, was not able to come back, but the news came the next day that Jane got sick from the rain.
Mrs. Bennet didn't feel guilty at all. When she saw the news from Netherfield at breakfast, she was even happy, "This way Jane and Mr. Bingley will have enough time to get along. I believe Jane must After understanding what I said to her last night, we, Jane, are indeed destined to be rich wives."
Poor Mrs. Bennet, is it really okay for you to make other sisters hate like this?
Elizabeth was a little speechless. She just had dinner and didn't want to talk too much with Mrs. Bennett, but she didn't want Mrs. Bennett's topic to turn to herself the next moment.
"Lizzie, I didn't ask you how your conversation with Mr. Collins was going yesterday. What did you talk about?" Mrs. Bennet looked expectant, and she seemed to have fainted by the news that Collins brought yesterday. It was left behind by her.
Elizabeth was inexpressibly disgusted by Mrs. Bennet's behaviour.
It was only because Mr. Collins promised that if he had a daughter with her, he would be able to support Mrs. Bennett's future life, so now Mrs. Bennett is so active towards Collins...
Elizabeth suppressed the idea of leaving immediately, and said with a smirk: "It seems that Mr. Collins and I are not born to talk together."
So Mrs. Bennet's face turned dark all at once, while the rest of the sisters laughed gleefully.
Elizabeth didn't want to offend Mrs. Bennet at this time. Collins is not a simple person. As a vampire, she has no idea of living with a priest. Isn't that courting death?
OJL's own life is a mess.
"Lizzie, you should go and see your sister." Mrs. Bennet said suddenly, which made Elizabeth stunned for a long time.
What kind of joke are you saying this all of a sudden? !
Don't you have a good relationship with Jane at all?Now the two of them are basically enemies. Didn't they deliberately make things difficult for Jane by asking me to see Jane?Elizabeth always felt that Jane might embarrass herself.
However, Mrs. Bennet did not give Elizabeth a chance to refute. At home, the wife still has a certain right to speak.
"If you don't go to see Jane now, a rich man like Mr. Bingley must think that our family is not good for Janet, maybe it will not be good for the future, you just go and see, and then find a chance to come back."
Heh, kidding about Los Angeles!
Mrs. Bennett, you have been cheating on your daughter for 100 years. You are innocent, right?
Elizabeth didn't know what to say anymore, and she didn't know whether Mrs. Bennet's brain circuit really had so many twists and turns, or it was just a subtle coincidence.
Just imagine, if Elizabeth really went, Jane would be very ill and could not leave. At most, I would just take care of it there, but once I had to face Mr. Darcy who was also staying in Netherfield temporarily, She is only one head and two older; secondly, if Jane is not too sick, what would it be like to find an excuse not to take Jane back home?She, the second daughter, is jealous of her sister's beauty and luck, and deliberately indifferent to her sister?
Does the grass mud horse have such a result?
Elizabeth has been a bystander from the beginning to the end, and has never really integrated into this so-called "home". It is pure nonsense that she will have the warmth of a home after time travel, and her view of marriage is completely out of touch with this era.
Fortunately, she became a vampire for no reason, so she didn't care.
Now the first thing to do was to get rid of Mrs. Bennet.
Elizabeth simply agreed, and was told by Mrs. Bennett to remember a few words to bring to Jane, and then let her go out.
Just after walking out the door, just after turning the detour at the entrance of the village, Elizabeth rolled her eyes.
What kind of world is this...
She didn't want to go to Jane's side to make trouble. Anyway, she has already come out, why not...
Do you have time today?
I'm near Longbourn, and I have time. I'm out with friends today, but something seems to be going wrong.
My agent just has time now, if you don't mind, I can arrange a meeting, after all, time is also very precious to you.
You are really good at doing business, but you are right, this is indeed a good time to meet, because of some reasons, I have actually communicated with your agent, and there is your agent in the place where I am now The agent's sister, she is ill, you can tell her to come to Netherfield, which is a place where no one will be suspected.
Do you fucking dare to say it again? !
Elizabeth's whole body is not good. She feels like ten thousand ants are crawling on her body. She doesn't know what to say. What are you kidding? What happened?How could he be so unlucky?
After finally avoiding it, Nathan actually let him go. Could it be that he teamed up with Mrs. Bennett to trick him?
All I can say is that life is a tragedy.
Elizabeth has silently lit 44 white candles for herself.
Dear me, go all the way.
Why don't you go?Of course not.
One is that there are some things that cannot be said, and the other is because...she is afraid of being exposed.
Resigned to her fate, Elizabeth could only respond to Nathan.
That's a good idea. I'll let her know right away. If it's close, it may be there soon.
So Elizabeth was spoiled by what she did, but Nathan over there smiled slightly. He was reading an encyclopedia, and Darcy was sitting beside him.
Nathan glanced at him jokingly, then suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Darcy, my dear partner, what do you think of the Trafalgar naval battle?"
"Are you asking about the outcome?" Darcy put down the newspaper and looked at the headlines on the front page. They were all unfavorable news about the war in Britain, which might damage their investment.Darcy crossed his hands and fingers together, as if he was thinking about it, but soon he smiled, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, a little reserved, without the usual arrogance. "British goods are very expensive throughout Europe. His Majesty Napoleon in France, after he imposed a blockade on us, things became more expensive. If Britain loses this time, then——British goods will fall in price, for us This is unspeakable bad news. Although I don’t want to say that Britain will lose, but looking at the posture, it seems that it cannot win.”
After hearing what Darcy said, Nathan was silent for a long time, but he just smiled and didn't speak.
Darcy was a little strange, "You seem to have a good opinion?"
"No, actually I have the same idea as you, but...a mysterious person told me that she knew the end of the war, and I can get the news today. Do you think I should believe it?" Nathan asked about his cooperation The opinion of his partner Darcy, after all Darcy is very knowledgeable, may have other opinions.
"Foretelling the future, I will never believe it." Darcy said firmly, but his slender fingers tapped the newspaper on the table. The headline on the front page said that the casualties of the British navy seemed to be heavy. "I don't know whether to win or lose. We bet on both sides, and we won't lose too much. You are a person with vision. You have invested too much money before. It seems too late to withdraw now. Even the British Just because you lost the battle doesn’t mean you’ll lose in the future.”
Darcy and Nathan have placed too much bet on this gamble, and they cannot withdraw at any time.
"It's become a no-go gamble."
Nathan summed it up lightly.
"Mr Bingley, Miss Bennet's sister is visiting."
Bingley came down from upstairs and hurried out to pick up someone. He was still guessing, but he saw Elizabeth on the way.
Elizabeth walked slowly all the way. It was 10:30 at this time. She greeted Mr. Bingley, asked about Jane's situation in a very hypocritical manner, and was then invited into the living room.
Both Darcy and Nathan looked at her at the same time, and Elizabeth greeted them normally.
"Mr. Darcy, Mr. Rothschild, hello, both of you."
Nathan suppressed his urge to raise his eyebrows. He saw Elizabeth go upstairs to see his sister, and then sat back on the sofa. He glanced at Darcy: "I heard that there was an incident between you and this girl before." What's wrong with you?"
"Where did you hear these false news?" Darcy was a little helpless. Although he didn't think he had a good temper, he didn't think Elizabeth had a good temper either. There was so much unhappiness at the ball, and as for the neck... Darcy was suddenly not sure what it was all about.
Raising his hand to press a certain place on his neck, Darcy's eyes dimmed.
This action caught Nathan's attention. He narrowed his eyes slightly, but didn't say much. When Elizabeth came down from the stairs, he found an excuse to leave the living room and went to Mr. Bingley's study to get a book.
And Elizabeth went to fetch water for Jane.
In the corridor, Nathan and Elizabeth happened to meet.
"Lizzie." Nathan clasped his hands together, looked at Elizabeth who was holding a water glass, and smiled, "It would be nice to have a maid to do these things."
Elizabeth sneered in her heart, if it wasn't like this, how could I have "coincidentally" met you in this corridor?According to what he told Nathan, Nathan now only knows that he is an agent.
"This is the second contact between me and you. It seems that you shouldn't be so kind to me."
In other words, what about "Lizzie", you fucking put it away for me as soon as possible, do you really think we have a good relationship?You are almost equivalent to a stranger, and you will not be given a discount if you get close!
Elizabeth's goal: to become a profiteer worse than QQ
This is probably the first time Nathan has been so deflated by a woman. He has been in social places for a long time, but it is the first time Nathan has met such an interesting girl. He touched his chin, "I think you already know my identity ,have no idea--"
"Mr. Rothschild—"
At the end of the corridor, Darcy was holding the coffee that the servant had just ground, and looked at them in surprise, as if he wanted to ask him to drink coffee, but he bumped into something by accident. "You two, this is..."
Nathan secretly said that this kid is really good at pretending, so he couldn't say anything more at the moment, so he could only explain casually: "Because I met this lady last time, so I chatted for a while."
Darcy nodded, seeming to agree with Nathan's statement, and then he asked Elizabeth casually: "Miss Elizabeth, you have come from a long way, as Charles' friend, please allow me to act as the master, please sit down Come down for a cup of coffee."
Elizabeth twitched when she heard the elegant invitation, but she couldn't help but answer: "Thank you for your kindness, I will come soon." The author has something to say: the content of this article will be more aggressive in the future, and now I will continue to follow the gossip Route, I'm starting to worry that someone can really HOLO live in such a murderous plot like me#"A")
Mrs. Bennet didn't feel guilty at all. When she saw the news from Netherfield at breakfast, she was even happy, "This way Jane and Mr. Bingley will have enough time to get along. I believe Jane must After understanding what I said to her last night, we, Jane, are indeed destined to be rich wives."
