Pride and Prejudice Mr Bennett

"Honey, I'm going out again tomorrow. And it may take a long time."

James to Mrs. Bennet, who had regressed to childhood tantrums with Jane.Just because Jane did not agree to let her play with the newly bought doll, she naively said that she would not play with Jane, so that James could only promise to have her doll next time.

"Ah, my husband, what's going on here? Didn't you just come back? Why did you go out again?" Mrs. Bennet yelled after hearing what James said, startling Jane and Elizabeth next to her. .

James glanced over, and Mrs. Bennet was embarrassed, she didn't mean it, she was so surprised.It's okay, the husband who never moves, actually said that he will go out again tomorrow. Could it be that he has dated someone?

"Hughes said that there is something wrong with the business, and I have to feel London quickly. So, take care of yourself and your children at home." James felt that this time things might be a little tricky, so he didn't know when he could come back, time It's short, so I can only arrange it hastily. Fortunately, they have experience and should know how to deal with their wives who do not play cards from time to time. You can work hard outside with peace of mind, but why is it his turn, is this the case?Of course, James absolutely does not admit that all this is caused by his connivance.

"Honey, how many times have I said that I am capable of taking care of the family." Mrs. Bennet was dissatisfied that James always regarded her as immature.

James ignored her words. Those who can fight for toys with their daughters are not qualified to say that they are mature.

"I know, but aren't you pregnant now? So you can't work hard, and people like us should enjoy themselves well." James comforted in a gentle voice.

"Well, that's what you said. Have you prepared everything you need to go out tomorrow?" Finally, I remembered to prepare things when I went out.

"Mrs. Smith has been accounted for."

"Dad, are you going out again? Then you have to come back early." Jane has been listening to their conversation, knowing that James is going out, she is very reluctant, but she is just a child.

"Daddy's baby, daddy will be back soon, and then daddy will buy you new toys." James picked her up and tapped her nose.

"Father tapped my nose again, and Sister Charlotte said that it would look bad if I tapped my nose too much." Jane frowned and said to James unhappily.

"Daddy's baby has grown up and knows it's going to be beautiful!" Scratching Jane's armpit, Jane rolled in James' arms with a smile.

The next morning, James looked at Mrs. Bennet who was sleeping soundly, kissed her on the forehead, and went to Jane's room. To her surprise, Jane was a little hazy, as if she was about to wake up. When she saw James, Jane's eyes widened. Open a jump seam.

"Good morning, Dad." The voice was soft and waxy, not as crisp as when he was awake, but this appearance made James' heart ache.

"Good morning, dear. Now go to sleep, it's still early." Touched Jane's hair and helped Jane tuck the quilt.

The last one was Elizabeth, sleeping like a cute little pig, her face was as rosy as a ripe apple, she really wanted someone to bite her, and James really did.

This time, James's quiet departure was really urgently urged by London, just like the letter he received yesterday said, if possible, it is best to leave as soon as you receive the letter.

When Mrs. Bennet got up and didn't find James, she asked Mrs. Smith, "Where is Mr.? Have you gone for a run?"

Strange, I have to go out today, how can I have a leisurely run?Could it be that he lied to me?

By the way, James, how many times have you played Mrs. Bennet?

On the way, James kept thinking about what happened to be so urgent, but he had no clue at all, so he had to give up in the end.

As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw Lewis waiting at the door.

"You know I understand London today?" James was surprised, he didn't notify Lewis, and even if he had notified the letter, the letter should not have arrived.

"Mr. Lange said that there is something to do in London, and you should be here today." Lewis took James' briefcase and said as he walked.

"And do you know what the hell happened in London?"

"I don't know about this either. Mr. Lange is very busy these days, and he just let me know."

James couldn't figure it out, so he washed up hastily, ate something to fill his stomach, and asked Lewis to follow him to Hughes' house.

Unexpectedly, Hughes was not at home. The servant said that he had gone out early in the morning and hadn't come back yet. James and Lewis went straight to the company again.

"You're finally here." Hughes was relieved to see James.

"What's the matter? From the look of you, it seems that the matter is very serious." James was surprised, he had never seen Hughes with such a serious expression.

"Come in, things are a bit complicated, and I still haven't figured it out yet." After opening the office, Hughes asked James and Lewis to enter and then closed it.

After they were all seated, Hughes made some arrangements before saying, "I received the letter the day before yesterday. Something happened in Birmingham."

"What happened? What's the matter? Last time, didn't you say that the operation over there is normal?"

James still remembers that when the company was discussing where to open the company, he hesitated for a while.But in the end it was settled in Birmingham. James agreed to open a branch in Birmingham mainly because Birmingham is very famous in later generations. Although the development of Birmingham is not as good as later generations, it sounds good because of the convenient transportation.Others choose Birmingham, one of the reasons is the convenient waterway transportation, and the other is that it is a little far away from London but not too far. In this way, the development of the company will not reach Birmingham, but if you open a branch in Birmingham, then In this way, the business network of London and Birmingham can be extended to the entire south, which is very important for the development and growth of the company, so now there is news from Birmingham that something happened, but it is unclear Yes, it's really worrying.

"I don't know. The letter doesn't make it clear. The person in charge over there doesn't know what happened. The partners over there have terminated their cooperation with us. What's more, people come to make trouble every day, and workers often Strike." Hughes also knew that the matter was serious. In fact, in his opinion, it was best for George to deal with this kind of matter, but George went on a trip after the Chinese New Year, and now he can't be contacted anywhere.And his own side of London was in trouble, especially in his family business.

"It's so complicated. Didn't you get any news over there? Did someone deliberately target us?"

"It didn't say that over there. So now I hope you can deal with it. I can't get away now, and George can't find it."

"It's also my responsibility. Even though I'm lazy, it doesn't mean I'll just ignore it." James was speechless. Could it be that he's really that lazy?Why do they all feel that they are a person who is unwilling to move even when the sky is falling?

Hughes touched his nose, well, he inadvertently leaked his thoughts.Lewis looked at them in a daze, what are they talking about now, and how did they get here.But no matter what, after this joke, the atmosphere was not so dull at last. They thought it was just a little complicated, but they didn't expect that it was far more complicated than they thought, so when James arrived in Birmingham unprepared, he was beaten. I was caught off guard.They didn't say anything more, and after chatting for a few more words, they made a decision and discussed it. James will set off for Birmingham with Lewis tomorrow.

"Who else is in your family?"

Lewis still faced James a little cautiously, and immediately straightened his upper body in response to James' question.

"It's just me and my mother at home."

"That means that if you go on a business trip with me tomorrow, your mother will be alone at home." James thought of his wife and children at home, and he was worried about them when he went out, so Lewis should also worry about his mother. "Then how do you arrange for your mother so that you don't always worry about it outside?"

"Well, I'm thinking about hiring a maid to take care of her." What Lewis thought was that after he came out to work and had a stable income, it was still possible to hire a maid to take care of his mother, and the mother's hard work in the early years made her mother His health has long since become very poor, and it is absolutely uneasy to leave his mother alone at home, but after much deliberation, he still finds it most reassuring to hire a maid.

"So do you have a choice? We're leaving tomorrow."

Lewis was in a dilemma, time was too tight, and he really couldn't find the right person all of a sudden. If he accidentally chose the wrong person, wouldn't it make his mother suffer?

From the way James cut Lewis, he knew that he was not ready yet, so he said his plan.

"You ask your mother to move here first, and arrange it after you come back. Don't worry, I will tell them to treat your mother well."

Lewis was very happy to hear that, it was really a good way, but he was worried immediately.

"Is this really good? Is it a little..."

"It's okay, I just borrowed it for a while, and you can move out when you come back. The most important thing now is to concentrate on the outside, so this is the best arrangement. That's it, that's it, you go back now Discuss with your mother, you will bring your mother here tomorrow and then set off outside."

"Kauf, is it really okay for me to live with your boss? It's fine for me to live at home by myself." Mrs. Sal initially disagreed with moving to James's place. After all, James is now Lewis's boss. She was afraid that where she was would affect Lewis' status with James.But later Lewis said that it was proposed by James, mainly so that he could work well outside and not have to worry about his family, so Sarf agreed, but he was still very disturbed.

Mothers are like this, they always make compromises and sacrifices for their children.

"Mom, it's really okay. You can live there with peace of mind. Mr. Bennett is a very nice person. When I come back from a business trip, I'll pick you up, okay?" Lewis patiently comforted his disturbed mother.

"Mom, we're here. The front is where Mr. Bennet lives now. It's safe and there are servants inside. I can rest assured that my mother lives here." Lewis pointed to the house in front of him and said to Mrs. Sal.

"There are still servants." Mrs. Sal said with emotion. When her husband was still there, there were servants to serve her at home, but after her husband was gone, the family deteriorated year after year. Now her son has finally grown up.Thinking of her husband's expectations for her son, Mrs. Sal can now tell her husband that she has lived up to his expectations and that her son is very promising.
