[Pride and Prejudice] The leisurely life of Miss Bentley

Jane Bennet's condition improved greatly over time, and she was able to go home within two days.On this day, Caroline and Elizabeth Bennet were walking in the bushes. Caroline said: "Miss Elizabeth, you know that I have always wanted to make friends with you. This time, because of the suddenness of the incident, yes. Please bear with me if Lingjie and you are not well received... Sister Luisa has always had this temper, please forgive me if I offend you."

"Mr. Bingley and you have treated us very well. If it weren't for your careful care, Jane's condition would not have recovered so quickly. If we continue to pick faults in the egg, we will be ignorant," Elizabeth said. She smiled and said, "Jane and I are not the ungrateful people who want you to be in a dilemma. We keep your thoughts in our hearts." After finishing speaking, Elizabeth blinked playfully.

"Miss Caroline, my sister's character is more reserved. Although she doesn't say it, she likes you very much in her heart." Seeing Caroline's cheerful face, Elizabeth said again, "I originally wanted to do it for her happiness." Adding a bit of heat, unexpectedly, I did something that almost made me regret it." After a pause, she said with great sincerity, "I put some thought into it, but fortunately, Mr. Bingley and Caroline Miss, you are all magnanimous people, don’t underestimate us because of this, otherwise we would be really ashamed to disturb you in Netherfield.”

What Elizabeth Bennet said was very good, but Caroline understood what she meant, and thought to herself that there is really something lovable about this girl, and it is this frankness and truthfulness that is enough for Mr. Darcy to appreciate. , It's a pity that he didn't hear the conversation.

"This is not an unforgivable thing. If I ask you, if we don't have a few relatives or friends who are willing to give their hearts and souls, it would be abnormal. Even my brother and I will inevitably do similar things under certain circumstances. "It's not a good thing," Caroline said, "but we should always think carefully before we act, in case things don't go against our wishes, it won't be beautiful."

"You're right." Elizabeth said seriously.

When they turned to another alley, Elizabeth asked again, "I don't know when you will come to the house to sit down? Our whole family hopes that you will come to Longbourne for dinner!"

Naturally, Caroline would not refuse Elizabeth's invitation. The two girls agreed to find time to visit Longbourne after Miss Jane Bennet returned home from illness. Elizabeth also volunteered to propose To act as Caroline's guide to Meryton, let's not mention it for now.

A few days passed quickly, and Miss Jane Bennet had also recovered from her illness. When she was dressed properly and accompanied by her eldest sister, she came to the living room and was warmly welcomed by everyone.Mr. Darcy and Mr. Hurst congratulated her very politely on her recovery, and Mrs. Hurst smiled and said she was "very glad" to see her.There is also Mr. Bingley, who is completely affectionate, and the joy emanating from his heart can be felt by everyone present.Seeing this, Caroline smiled at Elizabeth, and invited her to sit down and chat in a corner beside her.

But now that Miss Jane Bennet had recovered, there was no reason for the Bennet sisters to stay at Netherfield any longer.Although Mr. Bingley tried to persuade them to stay, the Bennet sisters felt that they had been bothering the master for too long, and the Bennet family wrote to Netherfield Gardens to urge them to go back to Longbourne, so they were very concerned about their The proposition was very persistent, and Mr. Bingley's kindness was still declined.

Longbourne Manor has not changed much after Jane and Elizabeth left: Mary still buries the pile of books, studying the philosophical and human nature issues she is interested in; the two little sisters still hang out with the officers, they I often went to Mrs. Meryton Foster's house, and got a lot of gossip from her.Mr. Bennet felt how hard it was for the two daughters, Jane and Elizabeth, to be away from home, 【especially when the family got together to chat at night, Mr. Work hard, it doesn't make any sense. 】

When the Bennet sisters arrived home, they were welcomed by their father and several younger sisters: Bennet realized the importance of the two daughters, while the three younger sisters felt that the fun at home would be enhanced when the eldest and second sisters came back. more.Surprisingly, Mrs. Bennet was not very happy to see her daughter coming home, but could not help sighing.It turned out that shortly before the two sisters Jane and Elizabeth came back, Mr. Bennet received a letter from his cousin Mr. Collins, which stated that he would visit Longbourne Manor in the near future.Since Mrs. Bennet only gave birth to five daughters, according to the inheritance law, Mr. Bennet’s property will be inherited by Mr. Collins in the future. The five Bennet sisters only have a dowry of about [-] pounds each. .In this way, this gentleman has taken advantage of it.

Mrs. Bennet absolutely hated this gentleman who had never met before and wanted to rob her family property: it was so unreasonable that her property could not be inherited by her five biological daughters, but was given to a person who had nothing to do with them up.And muttering that he must find a way to remedy this problem.Jane and Elizabeth repeatedly explained the law of succession to her, but they could not dissuade her from this idea.
