Two days later, all the guests who were not in Hertfordshire came. John Dasherwood, his wife Fanny and brother-in-law Robert Ferrars were the last ones to arrive.Their arrival brought a little disturbance that outsiders could not pay attention to, and for the Dasherwood sisters, life became more tormented because of the arrival of annoying people.

The past two days have not been easy for the two sisters Dasherwood. Marianne wrote several letters to Willoughby on the way to Hertfordshire, but Willoughby only replied to one letter, which made Mary Ann was a little unhappy, but Willoughby said a lot of sweet words in the letter, and even wrote a little love poem, which made Marianne feel better.But after that, Marianne never received a letter from Willoughby again. She wrote and sent out a letter every day for the past two days, but these letters almost disappeared without any reply.

One night Marianne finally couldn't help crying loudly when she wrote to Willoughby again, and Elinor had to comfort her that Willoughby must have returned to London, and his unreasonable cousin didn't send the letter to Willoughby. The letter to Allenham was forwarded, and that was why Willoughby delayed replying.This far-fetched reason did not comfort Marianne much. She felt that if Willoughby's heart for her had not changed a little because of her departure, then he would write to her as soon as he arrived in London, and he would definitely ask The servant at Allenham Park had delivered the letter to her, and now he seemed to have completely forgotten her!

Eleanor was very irritated by Marian's crying, and she was not in a good mood these two days. If it wasn't for her usual good tolerance, she would have cried many times.What worries Eleanor is Edward's indifferent attitude. On the way to Hertfordshire, she and Edward are congenial and accompany each other every day. Eleanor firmly believes that Edward will propose to her as long as he finds a good time. , but ever since I came to Titmouse Manor and met Sister Steele, everything has turned upside down.

At first Edward would avoid Annie, but after the picnic that day, Edward began to get closer to Annie. They always sat and walked together. They had endless topics and endless smiles.Every time Eleanor sees Edward and Anne chatting and laughing happily, and hears them talking about their memories of Plymouth University and Uncle Anne's house, Eleanor's heart will be filled with grief and jealousy. Seeing them laughing at each other when they talked about their happiness, Eleanor felt that Edward had fallen in love with Anne again and had already forgotten her as a lover.

But one night when Eleanor went downstairs to get water, she met Edward. She suppressed her emotions and asked Edward if his feelings for her had changed. Edward told her that since they met in Norland Manor, they My heart has not changed.At that time, Eleanor was standing facing Edward, looking into his eyes, she could clearly see the love overflowing inside, and those loves could never be faked.

Edward earnestly begged Eleanor to believe him and believe in love, and Eleanor agreed to him. When she went back to sleep, she began to force herself not to think about the plot of Edward being with Anne during the day, and forced herself to believe that it was just an accident. in friendship.But no matter how Eleanor convinces herself in her heart, after the seeds of doubt are planted in her heart, the uncertainty in her heart will continue to grow quietly and lifelessly in the dark corners.

Everyone was playing in the garden after lunch that day. Anne and Lucy were sitting on the swing and helping Lillian sew the ribbon for her hat. Edward in the portrait said with a hint of disgust and self-deprecation: "Isn't he always so cute? He is handsome, knowledgeable, and always humorous. He is also the heir of a big family. Here All the ladies like him, even the ignorant little girls can't escape being fascinated by him."

Lucy bit off the thread in her mouth, looked up at Robert and said, "How do you know that all the ladies here like him?"

The anger on Robert's face disappeared immediately, and he looked at Lucy with a playful smile and raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't Miss Lucy like Edward? I thought you were very, very in love with each other!"

Robert had just arrived at Tiny Bird Villa, and when he saw Edward and Sister Steele walking very close, he thought Edward was still with Lucy, so he made a joke.Unexpectedly, as soon as his words fell, Lucy's face became ugly, and she looked at him in disbelief.

"Why, am I wrong?" Robert asked.

Annie put down her hat, squinted her eyes at Robert and asked, "Mr. Robert, how did you know about this?"

"Of course I know!" Robert said as a matter of course.

"But we have never told anyone about this, and I believe Edward will not tell others casually. Isn't your mother not allowing him to marry a poor lady? Otherwise, he will be deprived of his inheritance rights." Anne asked road.

"So you all know my mother's famous words!" Robert touched his nose with a smile, and said, "My brother's friend Joe told me about you, and he also told you my mother's words, right? Edward will never tell this matter." Robert said.

"Joe? Is that Mr. Joe Greene? He's a good friend of Edward's. How could he tell you something that would affect Edward's inheritance?" Lucy asked with trembling lips. She didn't worry much about herself before. Things with Edward before will be known, but now she is a little scared.He and Edward have kept the secret very well, but now it has been proved that Joe and Robert already knew about it. What if someone else knew what happened that night?

"Of course you don't know, even my family members don't know. They always think Joe is just a good friend of Edward. In fact, Joe and I are real friends. Being friends with Edward is just a request from both parents, so it is not good for Edward. It's only natural that he will tell me the news." Robert shrugged, and then said apologetically: "I'm so sorry, Miss Lucy, I thought you were still with that annoying brother of mine. Wrong. Don't worry, I won't say it casually, anyway, it won't do me any good."

After listening to Robert's words, Lucy breathed a sigh of relief.

Annie looked at Robert and asked suspiciously: "Mr. Robert, you seem to have said a little too much to us. No matter what our relationship with your brother is, it doesn't seem good for you to say these things?"

Robert glanced at Edward, who was still a model standing motionless on the grass with a disgusted face, then turned his back and walked sideways, saying, "It doesn't matter, no matter what I do or say, I can't compare to him."

"Poor Mr. Robert." After Robert disappeared, Lucy sighed without any sympathy.Although Lucy hates Edward very much now, it is true that Robert is inferior to Edward. Robert will never be inferior to Edward as the second son alone. What's more, he is not as good-looking as Edward, and he does not look as smart as Edward. It's weird, and it's just right to be likable.

"Yeah, it's really pitiful." Annie echoed without any sympathy.

From Mrs. Fanny Dasherwood, you can clearly see the attitude of the Ferrars family towards the two brothers. Mrs. Dasherwood did not forget to bring a gift for Edward when she came to a friend's wedding, and her words and actions were even more respectful. Edward is very caring, and it can be seen that she has great expectations for Edward.But this lady always has a bad attitude towards Robert, who is also a younger brother, and she doesn't show any caring behavior.When the Fellers brothers stood together, everyone could tell that their treatment was very different. Edward, the brother, was a jewel in his hands, while Robert was probably a broken stone that was thrown to the ground.

In this case, it would be fine if Robert resigned to his fate. Anyway, it is very common for stepson not to be seen in Britain in this era.But this gentleman is obviously not resigned to his fate. From his words and deeds, it can be seen that he really wants to fight, wants to overwhelm Edward, but being suppressed since he was a child, don't underestimate him and growing up has caused him to always have a kind of Inferiority, in fact, he is indeed inferior to Edward, so he keeps saying things that belittle himself.Such a life is not pitiful.

"Annie, shall we help Mr. Robert?" Lucy said suddenly.

"What do you want to do?" Annie asked, but she already understood what Lucy meant.

"I hate Edward's deceit and his infidelity. That's why I was angry when I saw him happily with Miss Dasherwood but wanted to break them up. But I have changed my mind now. Edward is not what he was at the beginning. Will you give me up for the sake of the inheritance? Then I won’t let him get the inheritance.” Lucy was a little excited, she grabbed Anne’s hand and said, “I will never forget that night when he chose me and The appearance of the inheritance, the shame I will never forget in my life. Anne, Edward will not make it easy for me, and I will not make it easy for him. You will help me, Anne?"

Annie nodded in surprise. She looked at Lucy and suddenly felt that a raging flame was burning behind her. She thought that Lucy would not care too much about what happened that night. She didn't expect that she hated Edward so much, but this It also shows that Lucy has always liked Edward.

Therefore, it is really more tragic to encounter scumbags in life, so when choosing a lover, you must be more cautious and more cautious!

"Then let's match Edward and Miss Dasherwood, let them be inseparable in love, and make Edward lose his fancy property!" Lucy said with her fists clenched.
