Uniform unicorn

"This Mr. Wickham has a lot of experience." Albert took the information about Wickham sent by his subordinates and sighed after reading it.

This gentleman's experience is too rich, he has been a lady's lover, a liar, a thief, and a gambler.Now the position of officer of the militia is still sleeping.

This gentleman is extremely capable when it comes to women.

Looking at the last page, the gentleman's target now is Miss King in Longbourne with a dowry of [-] pounds.It is said that Miss Jin became the target of this gentleman because she suddenly received a generous inheritance gift.

He had called Charlotte's attention before. After all, it was no secret in Longborn that Charlotte had a dowry of [-] pounds.It's just that Charlotte is not an ignorant girl, and Wickham probably saw it, so he didn't bother after the failure.Still quite self-aware, knowing what kind of people can be messed with and what kind of people can't be messed with.

"As a well-meaning gentleman, I naturally cannot let such a scum harm innocent girls."

Ever since she knew that Wickham was pursuing Miss Jin, Elizabeth had more and more doubts about him. Seeing that her two little sisters were obsessed with Wickham, she always felt a little uneasy, so Elizabeth began to restrict Li Dia and Catherine socializing.

If Elizabeth wanted to do it before, Mrs. Bennet would not agree.But Mr. Bennet had said before that the two older sisters could discipline the younger sisters on his behalf.

"If anyone stops, or if someone disobeys, then don't even try to get a shilling from me."

"My wife, if you want your two eldest daughters to never be able to marry, you can make a fuss. If you piss me off as soon as possible, you can take your five daughters out to beg."

These few words of Mr. Bennet have simply pinpointed Mrs. Bennet's Achilles' heel. Mrs. Bennet does not have much talent in housekeeping, and she is a bit extravagant in spending money. Her own dowry has never increased over the years. .

If Mr. Bennet had cut off her pocket money, she would be living in extreme poverty.And what she feared most was that she and her daughter would be driven out of Longbourne after Mr. Bennet's death.

All of a sudden, even Mrs. Bennet dared not do anything against Mr. Bennet.

Without Mrs. Bennet's support, Lydia had a quarrel for a while, but Mr. Bennet stopped her pocket money very decisively.And the housemaids are not allowed to serve her.

A spoiled little girl like Lydia naturally gave up after a few days.No matter what she thought in her heart, she had to obey Jane and Elizabeth's orders.

All of a sudden, the Bennett house became much quieter.Mr. Bennet felt guilty for his eldest daughter, because he had heard the conversation between the two eldest daughters before.

He suddenly realized that because of his neglect and indulgence, the two eldest daughters in the family were affected by his wife and two younger daughters.If this continues, the future marriage of Jane and Elizabeth will be delayed.They don't have brothers like Albert Sterling.

This is the reason for Mr. Bennet's change.

But this time, Elizabeth refused to let Lydia and Wickham get in touch, and asked Lydia to make a fuss with Mrs. Bennet.Mrs. Bennet herself is also obsessed with red uniforms, so she expressed extreme indignation at Elizabeth's behavior.The words of accusation are extremely ugly.

"Mrs. Bennet, since you like the red uniform so much, why did you choose me back then? I remember that I never wore that dress."

Mr. Bennet's words immediately made Mrs. Bennet speechless. Naturally, she chose Mr. Bennet because he was the best qualified among her suitors.She liked the red uniforms, but she also knew they had no money.

If Lydia likes red uniforms, then I can marry her to any of them, only she won't get a dowry of a pound.

"Oh, Mr. Bennet, you can't do that!"

"You can try, Mrs. Bennet, and see if I will do this. Of course, if you are willing to give your dowry allowance to your beloved little daughter, then I have no objection."

Mrs. Bennet: ...

Not to mention Mrs. Bennet, even Jane and Elizabeth were frightened by Mr. Bennet's never being so strong.

Jane and Elizabeth also discussed in private what had caused Mr. Bennet's change of temper.It's just that neither of them came to any good conclusions.

However, since Mr. Bennet has not changed much other than this point, Jane and Elizabeth let go of this concern.Dad is willing to discipline Lydia and the others, it is better than letting them mess around.

Then very quickly the gossip about Longbourne was transferred from Jane to Wickham.

"Didn't you see that so many people came to Wickham, it is said that they were all his creditors. He owed money in many places, but he ran away without paying it back."

"Yes, this Wickham is a gambler."

"I also heard that he has been the lover of many ladies."

"Look at his face, it's really possible."

"And his sweet talk, I heard that many girls like to talk to him."

"God, how is Miss King?"

"She has been taken away by her grandfather, and she will not return to Longborn in the near future."

"God bless Miss King, if you really marry this Wickham, you will fall into hell."

"It is said that this liar still wanted to hit Miss Lucas, but he was flatly rejected. Miss Lucas also reminded Miss Jin, but it's a pity that Miss Jin was fascinated by this liar. Good and Miss Lucas There was a fight."

"This Miss Lucas is really shrewd. A girl like this is the most able to support a family. It's just a pity that Miss Lucas, who has a dowry of ten pounds, probably won't take a fancy to the young man from Longbourn. .”

"And this young lady has taken some magic medicine recently, and she has become more and more beautiful. This is really unbelievable."

"I know this. Miss Lucas took the magic medicine that Earl Sterling brought back from Silk Country. It is said that only the royal family can enjoy it in Silk Country."

"Si Country, that is really a mysterious country."

"Miss Lucas looks fine, too."

"Of course, I heard that one of the pills takes 1000 years to mature."

"Oh, God!"

"........."

After Wickham's true face was known, his reputation in Longborn was in a mess.Although he paid off the debts of those creditors who came to him with pounds that he didn't know where he got.But the people here regard him as a scourge.Fortunately, the militia regiment's stationing here has already expired, and they will leave soon.

The whole Longborn family with daughters expressed great joy at this.

Elizabeth was among them.

"Thank God, the militia is finally leaving." Elizabeth and Jane looked at each other, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.

They just didn't understand that Wickham's true face had been revealed clearly, why Lydia didn't believe it, and clamored that Wickham was wronged.God, Wickham had given her some kind of ecstasy.

"Be patient, the militia will leave tomorrow. After a long time, Lydia will forget about this person." My sister knew it well, but it was only three minutes of enthusiasm.

Jane agrees with Elizabeth.

It's just that their sisters and even the whole Bennett family underestimated Lydia's stupidity.

Catherine, who just woke up the next day, found that Lydia, who used to like to stay in bed, was not in bed, and she didn't care at first. Lydia has been in a bad mood during this time, probably because she got up early today.

It wasn't until the family was sitting at the dining table having breakfast that Elizabeth saw Lydia's position and no one said to Catherine: "Catherine, why don't you call Lydia when you wake up?"

Catherine, who was eating, raised her head blankly, then turned to find that there was no one beside her.

"No, Lydia wasn't in bed when I woke up today, I thought she was up already."

"What?" Elizabeth suddenly had a bad thought.

"Ella, Mrs. Cam, have you seen Lydia?" The maids were the first ones in the family.

Ella and Mrs. Cam looked at each other and shook their heads.

Elizabeth looked at Mr. Bennet.

Mr. Bennet frowned: "Lizzie, maybe Lydia just went out to play, she's been crazy all the time."

"Father!" Elizabeth felt helpless when her father described her daughter in this way.

"Okay, so what do you think?"

"I don't know, I hope it's not what I thought, I'll go to Lydia's room to see." Elizabeth left the table with a headache.

"Lydia is a good child. It must be because Mr. Bennet and Elizabeth are too strict with her, so she has to go out early to get some air." Mrs. Bennet yelled.Trying to get Mr. Bennet not to treat Lydia, her most beloved little daughter, like this,

Mr. Bennet glanced at her, but said nothing.

Based on Lydia's performance these days, Mr. Bennet felt that she didn't realize where her mistake was at all.He had given up on him for not teaching her in a harsher way.

"Oh my god, it's bad, Dad, Lydia, she, she..." I really couldn't say the next two words.Elizabeth could only give the paper left by Lydia to Mr. Bennet.

Mr. Bennet was trembling after reading the contents of the paper.His daughter even ran off with a well-known swindler and gambler.Mr. Bennet did not believe a word that they were going to Gretna Green to be married.

This bad news made Mr. Bennet feel dizzy.

"father!"

"Mr. Bennett!"
