"God, my good master, you must come and listen carefully to this news!"

Mr. Bennet raised his eyes from the book in a good mood, and smiled, "My dear wife, I haven't seen you so happy for a long time. Just because of this abnormality, I would like to hear from you."

Mrs. Bennet was delighted when she heard it, for a narrator always wishes most of all to have a lovely listener.

"Nestherfield Gardens is let, and the owner of that garden moved in in a four-horse limousine just today! My God, that's a rich young man, and, my dear, he's a real one." Bachelor! A rich bachelor, I'm sorry I got the news late, otherwise you could have visited him sooner!"

"Oh, my dear wife, you must not feel sorry. You received the news late, which only shows that your spirit of gossip has finally been restrained."

At this time, Jane and Isa happened to come in from the outside, followed by Mary and Kitty. Isa saw Mrs. Bennet who was a little lost, and leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, "Dear mother, the weather is so Well, why are you unhappy?"

"Honey, I'm not unhappy, I'm just worrying about your marriage."

Mrs. Bennet did not continue to yell, "Honey, now you have no dowry at all." Isa felt very happy that Mrs. Bennet would remember the seriousness of the dowry while marrying her daughter, and immediately smiled Closing her eyes, she leaned over and whispered, "Mom, I will tell you some great news in a short time. By then, you will definitely not be depressed anymore."

Yes, Bell Manor is about to kick off grandly, representing the honor of the Bennett family, and it will be presented brightly!

"Look, Darcy, this Netherfield garden is really beautiful. It's sunny outside, and there are so many lovely flowers in the yard. When the time comes, set up a swing. Caroline will love it very much!" Mr. Bingley said. As soon as he moved here, he began to plan his bright autumn and winter days with great interest.

Miss Bingley came out of the house, a little dissatisfied in the inspection room, "Charles, don't you think this garden is too messy, and the decoration here is not good at all." She gently lifted her skirt, "Oh , you must not be on a swing, I don't like the feeling of skirts flying around."

"Really." Mr. Bingley looked around. He was gentle and simple and didn't feel disappointed at all. "But I still think this place is so cute, Darcy, what do you think?"

Darcy stood there silently, his deep eyes swept over everything in the garden, as if he had seen it, but he seemed not.Miss Bingley deliberately went around to him, flicked her skirt gently, and put on an elegant posture, but in fact Darcy didn't hear their conversation at all at this time, and his mind was already drifting away.

"Darcy?" Mr. Bingley shook his hand.

"En." Darcy uttered a syllable perfunctorily, turned his eyes away, and walked in.

The servants had already tidied up the place, and Darcy entered his room, but he was still a little restless.He stood up and paced the room, wanting to go to Miss Elizabeth first, but suddenly felt that he was too enthusiastic, after a few struggles, Darcy hid in Nether with his lips pressed together In the study in Field Garden.

He was somewhat horrified to find that the face that made people miss three years ago did not become blurred with the passage of time, but became clearer, making people think like crazy.

But, Darcy, is that really the right thing?

When he finally came to this place with a feverish heart and stopped so close to her, he suddenly remembered that he should ask himself this question.For a relationship, freshness and enthusiasm are not absolute. She and him are indeed in harmony, but how can there be only a little bit of the hills that need to be crossed in the middle?

Half of his heart is saying that he has already passed the age when he loses his reason because of love. He feels that his relationship came too fast, too hot and too sudden, and he should calm down.

Half the heart is saying, oh no, Darcy, take it easy, it's all going to be all right for them.

But in the end, the two halves of the heart merged into one, clamoring constantly, eager to see her.This is indeed not a good experience.Darcy looked out of the window silently, his deep brown eyes gradually emptied.

The lights are feasting, the cups are intertwined, the clothes are fragrant, and the handsome officers in red are walking in the gorgeous place, the gentlemen who are very casual and enthusiastic, the ladies who are beautiful and fresh and laughing, and the beautiful wine, sweet Refreshments, elegant music.

It was a dance, the first that the Bennetts attended that year.

The ball was given in Netherfield Gardens by Mr. Bingley, a newcomer, whose enthusiasm had in a short time been known to all households, and all Meryton was celebrating Happy to have such a gentleman.And Mr. Bingley lived up to expectations. After being visited by all the neighbors in the neighborhood, he asked the servants to send invitations to everyone politely.

"This is really an exciting ball, dear Jane, dear Isa, you will be the most eye-catching girls in Meryton again tonight!" Mrs. Bennet was already excited as soon as she walked into the ball. Get up, "Isa, you can no longer hide in the corner of the ball like that!"

Isa smiled, "Okay, Mom, I promise."

"Oh, by the way, and my lovely Mary and Kitty, you have all grown up so well, you have to work hard to show your talents at this prom, don't let the things you have learned in the past few years lose their meaning! "

Mary nodded reservedly, and Kitty smiled shyly.

You know, their age is exactly the time when they yearn for a handsome boy, and such a dance is what they have been looking forward to for a long time.

Mrs. Bennett was very satisfied with her four daughters. During the days when they were not invited to the ball, Isa became more attentive to the teaching of her sisters. After they learned everything a lady should know, they followed Follow Isa to learn the demeanor, posture and attitude of dealing with people that nobles should have.

These things can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. Even so, they have made great progress.

The reason why Mrs. Bennett is so excited is precisely because she feels that the appearance of her daughters at this ball will definitely win the favor of countless people!Her daughters must be the most elegant and beautiful girls in the place, with the most proud and impeccable talents!

This ball was grand, but it was completely different from the grand ball that was held in early winter. This ball was very beautifully arranged but a little casual, showing that the owner of the ball wanted to blend into this small village urgently.Netherfield Gardens was a lovely place, and had been embellished with more splendor after Mr. Bingley's arrival.

"My wife, let's go and say hello to the Bingley family and his friends," said Mr. Bennett, "but you must be prepared not to be frightened by the serious gentleman next to him." !"

The protagonist of the ball stood there to receive the welcome and compliments from everyone, and the Bennetts finally found a gap and walked over.

Such a gentle, friendly, handsome and wealthy young man is always the person that everyone most wants to make friends with. What's more, he has an unmarried younger sister and a tall and handsome gentleman by his side.This gentleman's appearance, temperament and clothes are more eye-catching than Bentley, but unfortunately, his expression is so indifferent and serious, and he rejects people thousands of miles away, so that he can't have any joyful thoughts, and even dare not Come up to talk.

Yisha froze for a moment, looked forward, and stopped subconsciously.

Under the light, the figure standing side by side with Bentley is so familiar. His clothes are still elegant and not fancy, with a steady temperament, which makes him appear imposing.Today, he seems to have been well-dressed. There are exquisite patterns on the smoothly cut dress, and a low-key but expensive silk scarf is tied around his neck.

He stood still and said nothing.Looking at it, Isa felt that his handsome face seemed to have darkened a little due to the travel and traveling, but this could not conceal his excellence at all, but it seemed more masculine.

And just when Isa discovered the existence of Mr. Darcy, Darcy also discovered her.

I haven't seen her for more than three years, but time has shown an extremely friendly state on her body. It has made her more mature and beautiful, and also made her temperament more settled and elegant. A different style.There is no doubt that she has grown even better in the time without him.

Oh, his heart, his soul, was restless.

The Bennett family greeted Bentley and the others in a friendly manner, introduced each other and brought out the four daughters emphatically. The sisters took turns to salute gracefully when they introduced themselves.Bingley looked over one by one, and a pair of eyes full of gentle smiles immediately fixed on Jane.

Oh, what a gentle beauty.Mr. Bingley sighed in his heart.

Mrs. Bennet put up with it very hard, but she managed not to say much, which was very decent.

When they stepped forward, the pretty figure following Jane immediately caught Darcy's attention.

"These gifts are really beautiful!" Miss Bingley was a little surprised, "Mr. Bennett, Mrs. Bennett, you must have an excellent lady teacher in your family. You know, I never thought I never saw such an elegant young lady in this small village."

This sounded like praise, but when I heard it again, I felt that there was more contempt for the country. Mrs. Bennet was upset and was about to retaliate decisively, but Isa quietly pulled her sleeve.

Mr. Bingley smiled all over his face, "Let's stop chatting, look, the dance has started, let's go to the dance floor!" His eyes were fixed on the beautiful and gentle Jane, and he couldn't take his eyes off for a while.Taking the first two steps, he gracefully invited Jane, "Beautiful Miss Bennett, I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to the next dance?"

Jane nodded with a smile, lifted her skirt gracefully and bent over, and put her hand into Mr. Bingley's.

After the beauty was in hand, Mr. Bingley did not forget to tell his worrying friend, "Darcy, you must not hide in the waiting room at the beginning, that's what old gentlemen do." You should go down and dance, because your dances are always appreciated by the ladies!"

Mr. Bingley smiled gently and sunnyly. He didn't see his sister Caroline Bingley's slightly expectant gaze. Instead, he said with a simple and kind smile, "I don't want to see you being a fool to come here with me." Standing there stupidly, you see, the daughters of the Bennett family are all so outstanding, you can never deny it!"

Darcy pursed his lips, subconsciously looked at Miss Elizabeth, his stern expression seemed to be melting slightly.
