"Mr. Bennet's property consists almost entirely in an estate, which receives an income of two thousand pounds a year."
"However, due to the 'limited inheritance rights', Mr. Bennett's property must be inherited by male offspring. However, the Bennett family only has five daughters..."
"When the Bennetts got married, it was agreed that Mrs. Bennett and her daughters could inherit a total of five thousand pounds, but apart from that, they were no longer eligible to inherit Mr. Bennett's estate."
Roland sat in the living room, frowning, thinking: "Limited succession" means that the Bennett daughters cannot benefit from the family's real estate.
What she needs to do now is to allow this land to provide high value-added output in a short period of time, and to be able to quickly convert these outputs into movable property and become real money in their sisters' own names.
Time is running out, after all the character "Lydia" is 14 years old.
She will step into the social world when she is 15 years old, and the plot line of the original book will officially begin at that time.
"Lydia! Lydia..."
Kitty hugged Roland's shoulder and shook it gently.
"Are you okay, you've been in a daze since early morning."
Kitty is the fourth of the five Bennett sisters, the closest in age to Lydia, and the best friend of the two.
"You weren't like this before...couldn't you be sick?!"
The original Bennett sisters were all sitting in the living room doing their own thing.Hearing what Kitty said, the eldest sister Jane and the second sister Elizabeth gathered around together, and the third sister Mary looked up from the book that made her bury her head.
Elizabeth stretched out her hand, tried it on Roland's forehead, touched her own again, let out a sigh of relief, and said, "It's okay, I don't have a fever."
Jane has a pair of gentle and moving eyes. She shook Roland's little hand and asked softly, "Little sister, what's wrong?"
Roland shook his head quickly, knowing a little more about the atmosphere of the Bennett family in his heart.
Although this family is not considered a wealthy family, and the sisters lack a brother to support the family, the five sisters get along well.The older two sisters take good care of the younger sisters.
However, are her "sisters" like her, real "players" participating in this reality show; or are they "original characters" created by holographic technology and artificial intelligence according to the original setting?
There is not enough information - everything can only be judged by Roland himself.
Now in the living room of the Bennett family, fourth sister Kitty looks more like a character from the original.
Because Kitty said something earlier: "You were not like this before".
If they were both players who had just entered the plane, they wouldn't say such things.
For the other three sisters, Roland was not fully sure.
According to Luna's introduction earlier, each "famous plane" may usher in four to five contestants.Players enter the plane according to the result of the lottery.Players cannot communicate with each other unless they actively reveal their "identities" to others.
Therefore, these "sisters" in front of them may be characters in the novel created by the original author Austin, or they may be "contestants" who are competing with Roland for the audience's favor.
As for Roland's "parents" in the play, the Bennetts, the couple left a deep impression on Roland:
Mrs. Bennet was supposed to have been very beautiful in her youth, and her beauty was passed down unequally to her daughters.Her "nervousness" caused problems for the whole family at times - especially her husband.
Mr. Bennett looked like a typical country gentleman, always speaking with a sly gleam in his eyes and a sarcastic humor in his words, which he often took pride in not being able to detect.
Mr. Bennett doesn't spend much time with his family.He spent most of his time in his study, or wandering the country fields and woods.
Mr. Bennett's habit of going out for a walk provided Roland with very important convenience——
Taking advantage of her father's absence, she slipped into Mr. Bennet's study.
"Account book, account book..."
What Roland wanted to check was the account books of the Bennett family. Apart from revealing to her the financial status of the Bennett family, this item could also provide her with a lot of information: prices of local agricultural products, tax burdens, various Valuation of assets...
"Here it is..."
Roland decisively pulled an account book from the shelf, opened it, and the content on it had been automatically switched to the accounting method commonly used in the 22nd century in real time, and the currency had also been equivalently converted into a currency system that Roland could easily understand——
Roland raised his eyebrows, thinking: Sure enough, as the chief director said, this is a "reality show" rather than a "historical show" - "The Plane of Famous Books" is more like a role-playing game.
The clues that could change her fate must have been hidden early on, waiting to be discovered by her.
Roland immediately began to look through the books of the Bennett family, thinking while looking at it—how could she create wealth in a relatively short period of time and change the financial situation of the Bennett family?
Before she could think of any ideas, the handle of the study door behind Roland was suddenly turned, and the door was pushed open.Mr. Bennett, the old father of the Bennett family, came back suddenly.
"Lizzie, it's you—"
The study was a bit dim, and Mr. Bennett couldn't see which of his daughters was in the study, so he habitually blurted out.
Roland hurriedly stuffed the account book back on the shelf, then turned around and explained in embarrassment: "Dad..."
"Lydia?"
Mr. Bennett was not so old and blind that he could not tell his own daughter.
"This is really a rare visitor... Lydia, what are you doing in Dad's study?"
Roland thought to himself: Since she was discovered, why not tell the truth and show that she really wanted to contribute to the family.
"me……"
The more she opened her mouth, the more her tongue became stagnant, as if stuck with glue, she couldn't speak freely, and the harder she tried, the more futile she was.
Mr. Bennet looked at his little daughter, raising his eyebrows curiously.
"I want to see if there are any books in papa's study about ribbons and hats and stuff..."
Roland held back for a long time, and suddenly spit out such a sentence.
She immediately covered her mouth with her hand, as if she had said something wrong.
Mr. Bennett suddenly saw his youngest daughter in the study, and was still surprised at how the youngest child had suddenly turned sexual.Hearing this, Mr. Bennet smiled with relief: "Son, it sounds like your interest in books is indeed very special."
"But ribbons, clothes and hats are also very important things... Dad, why didn't anyone write them into a book?" Roland spit out another sentence hastily.
Roland was quite surprised—this was not what she wanted to say at all, it was as if...someone was manipulating her tongue to say it for her.
Mr. Bennet nodded, opened the door of the study, and said: "Yes, they are all important, but I don't have any in my study."
Roland pouted, showing a resentful expression, and walked out slowly.
In fact, she is trying to control herself, and she doesn't want to say what she doesn't want to say.
"Son, you seem to be very busy, why don't you discuss it with Kitty and sort out a book yourself?" Mr. Bennett persuaded Roland in a half-joking tone.
Roland stuck out his tongue: "Then I have to memorize the spelling of the names of so many fabrics and satins, how troublesome it is..."
This is another sentence blurted out against her will, which fully reflects the little girl's "ignorance".
Roland lowered his head consciously, and fled despondently from Mr. Bennett, not daring to say another word.
On the way back to the living room, she saw Luna, the agent cat who was "passing by", and quickly reached out to copy the "black and white flower" in her arms, and carried it upstairs.
In his bedroom, Roland closed the door, pretended to take out the small plate for feeding the cat, and took this opportunity to ask in a low voice, "What's going on here?"
Broker Cat Luna: "What's going on?"
"Why do I say things I don't want to say?"
Luna: "So this card is used like this!"
Roland: "What card? What do you know?"
The kitten lowered its head and ate the cat food, and said vaguely: "You have triggered the 'personal maintenance card', also known as the 'anti-OOC card'④."
What was said about "personal design maintenance" is false. When Luna said "prevent OOC", Roland immediately understood:
Although these contestants who entered the plane have their own characteristics and abilities, they are still "playing" the characters in these works in name, and they still need to maintain the original characters to a certain extent.
After all, this is a "famous plane", and there are many original fans in the audience.
The contestants can't be completely allowed to play freely, playing the mute as a chatterbox, Miss Jiao as a Valkyrie, and an old country gentleman like Mr. Bennett as a hippie.
That's why this "anti-OOC card" exists.
Roland estimated that there must be words such as "ribbon" and "hat" on this card-she guessed that she was a fashionista in the original book?
Unexpectedly, Luna lowered her head and said, "The character on this card is... Lydia Bennett, who loves vanity, is frivolous and flirtatious, and doesn't know the heights of the world. She especially likes the handsome 'red uniform'③ ..."
Roland: ...
In this plane, in addition to conscientiously following the career line and the plot line, does she still have to continue to bear the audience's "stereotype" of the original character? This is really a headache.
"However, these 'problems'...in the 22nd century, they are not a big deal! This small difficulty is nothing to you at all."
Luna was full of cat food, and squatted on the floor in satisfaction, patting her belly with her tender pink paws.
Hearing what the agent cat said, Roland fully understood:
Luna is right. Entering the new era, the moral requirements for characters are very different from the era when the author wrote the book - the free pursuit of love and beauty is no longer an original sin.This original character is simply misbehaving and unlikable.
Is Lydia Bennett a heinous villain?
--no.
Then Roland resolutely adjusted her goal to: make the audience fall in love with her under the existing framework of character design.
"However, due to the 'limited inheritance rights', Mr. Bennett's property must be inherited by male offspring. However, the Bennett family only has five daughters..."
"When the Bennetts got married, it was agreed that Mrs. Bennett and her daughters could inherit a total of five thousand pounds, but apart from that, they were no longer eligible to inherit Mr. Bennett's estate."
