Be the C heroine in a famous book [Quick Transmigration]

===========================

Mrs. de Bower arrived in London three days later. The old lady set off in a hurry after receiving her nephew's letter.

Her daughter Annie once had a marriage contract with Darcy, although it was canceled because of Darcy's disagreement, but she never gave up on matching the two.In the original book, she was extremely angry when she learned that Darcy proposed to Elizabeth, and even broke up with Darcy.At this time, she also wanted to see if her future niece and daughter-in-law could satisfy her.

Of course, she was dissatisfied with Caroline's background. Although she was a little stronger than Elizabeth, she was only the daughter of a merchant family. The [-] pounds of dowry could not bring any help to Darcy. Taxes alone cost £[-], not to mention other factory investments and overseas trade.

Mrs. de Bower has been pampered for a long time, she is young and widowed, and she is somewhat arbitrary. When she arrives at the Bingley's house, she looks at Caroline, Louisa, and Charles with scrutiny, as if evaluating their value.

Then she asked: "Miss Bingley, can you play the piano?"

Caroline felt that the old woman was a little puzzled, but she still replied, "Yes, ma'am."

"Then let's play a piece, and you mustn't refuse." Having said that, she didn't seem to have thought that Caroline would refuse at all.

Caroline was a little speechless, but she made a fuss when arguing with her, so she played a song in coordination with her. There was nothing to say, the skill was superb, and the emotion was just right. Even Mrs. de Bower couldn't say anything wrong, she He asked again: "Miss Bingley, is it true that your family has made a fortune in overseas trade? What do you all buy and sell?"

In this regard, before Caroline could speak, Charles coughed, and he blushed, "Ma'am, in fact, my father passed away. Apart from a few factories, we no longer do business."

Mrs. de Bower was very surprised: "How can I do that? What will I do in the future? Miss Bingley, how much is your dowry?"

Women's dowry was an open secret in this day and age, and Madame de Bourgh obviously knew it.

Caroline was extremely helpless, and replied: "Twenty thousand pounds, madam."

Mrs. De Bourgh wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Darcy, "Auntie, you came from a long way, let's talk after lunch first?"

Mrs. De Bourgh glanced between Darcy and Caroline, and saw that her nephew loved and maintained Miss Bingley. Although she was not satisfied with Miss Bingley, she was not unacceptable, so she reluctantly stopped and went to dinner.

Seeing this, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, and they felt very uncomfortable facing such a difficult old lady.

On the one hand, she is a respectable elder except that she likes to point fingers, on the other hand, she has the highest social status, and it is difficult for everyone to refute her. Of course, except Darcy, he respects this aunt very much, because it is the only thing he has left. Elder, but he didn't just obey her blindly, just like just now, he saw that Caroline was a little upset, so he interrupted her at the right time.

In fact, Mrs. de Bower was not as dissatisfied with Miss Bingley as she appeared on the surface. Except that she was not her daughter Anne, Miss Bingley herself had nothing to criticize.

She tried a few more times during the meal, and found that although this Miss Bingley was not from a good background, she was neither humble nor overbearing when facing people with higher status than her, and she spoke in a very orderly manner. It could be seen that she had a flexible mind, and she should be barely qualified to be Mrs. Darcy.

So the old lady wrote several letters to her friends in London, asking them to come to her nephew's engagement ball.

Mrs. de Bower was born in a famous family, she has the title left by her husband, and she knows people who are not ordinary people, so Caroline and Darcy's engagement ball is extremely grand, which means that Caroline is accepted by the upper class.

In the original book, because Elizabeth offended Mrs. De Bourgh, although the two families resumed their contacts later, that did not include introducing her into high society.Therefore, strictly speaking, Elizabeth was rejected by the upper class, and her life range could only revolve around Pemberley. It is hard to say whether the Darcy family will decline because of this.

After the engagement ball, the old lady returned to her home in Kent in a hurry. She was really worried about her frail daughter Anne, and worried that she would die at any time.

Of course, before leaving, she arrogantly invited Darcy and Caroline to Rosings as guests, and kept staring at them, waiting for their nods before leaving.

After waiting for her to leave, Darcy apologized to Caroline, saying that she had been wronged.Caroline didn't take this to heart. There were too many people of all kinds. Mrs. de Bower was not annoying, but she was a little nosy. She didn't live long, so she could still tolerate it.

Seeing this, Darcy admired her tolerance very much, and thought that he had found a good mistress for the Darcy family, and even his aunt was very satisfied with her, but the aunt was used to being the head of the parish and was used to pointing fingers, which was hard to change. Sometimes I can't stand it. It's really rare for Caroline to be so generous. Although she doesn't care about it, he has decided to make up for her.

So the next day, Caroline received a box of jewelry.

Yes, a box. Looking at this box of jewels, Caroline was shocked by Darcy's arrogance, and also surprised by the wealth of the Darcy family. It seems that the wealth accumulated by the Darcy family for generations is far beyond her imagination .

However, there is no woman who doesn't like jewelry, let alone a gift from a lover. Caroline kissed Darcy very happily, and when she left, Darcy hugged and kissed her again.

After the ball, Caroline officially began to do experiments, and Darcy acted as her assistant after handling things.

When the two were doing the experiment, they developed a very tacit understanding. Often, they could tell what the other was thinking with just a glance. They were immersed in the sweet juice of love, and they didn't feel that the experiment was boring.

After 520 experiments, finally two months later, they produced a tungsten filament lamp that can emit light for more than 1000 hours, marking the emergence of electric lamps.

In the spare time of the experiment, they were inseparable, and they always had endless conversations. The attraction of each other was maximized. Darcy often couldn't help kissing her in the garden and living room, regardless of Charles and Georgiana who might pass by, regardless of the possibility. The servant who saw.

The experiment was successful. Facing this invention that would shock the world, they were extremely cautious. Fortunately, the United Kingdom already had a patent office and laws, and they applied for the monopoly of electric lights before making the invention public.

Then, it was the production profit stage. Out of love for Caroline, Darcy offered to let Charles invest in the shares. In the end, Darcy injected 50 pounds, Charles injected [-] pounds, and with Caroline, the three parties established an electric appliance company. company.

Darcy was in charge of the construction of the power station, Charles was in charge of production and sales, and Caroline was in charge of technical guidance, successfully popularizing electric lights.

Three months later, London became a city that never sleeps, and this trend gradually spread to other parts of Britain, as far as Rosings.

Rosings' pastor's house welcomed the hostess Jenny Bennett, who should be called Jenny Collins now, and other Bennetts who came to visit, and it was very lively for a while.

In the living room at this time, Elizabeth and Jenny were chatting.

"Mrs. de Bourgh is coming back." Jenny put down the letter in her hand and said helplessly.

"I really hope she never comes back." Elizabeth had a headache when she thought of this harsh old woman, especially when Jenny had to greet her every day and accept her inspection, how sad these days were.

"Liz, don't say that," said Jenny disapprovingly. "Mrs. de Bourgh was just doing her job."

Seeing that her sister was always so considerate to others, Elizabeth took it for granted and said, "I really admire Lady Bingley for being able to endure her for two whole months. I knew she was kind before, but for Mrs. de Bourgh, no matter how kind a person is, she will be bored. "

"Thinking about it now, the acquaintance with Lady Bentley is really like a dream." Jenny looked at the newly installed electric lights in the living room, still shocked by this.

"I couldn't believe it when Mrs. de Bourgh first said it! I kept asking which Miss Bingley it was. She looked very surprised that we knew each other. Do you remember her expression, Jenny?" Elizabeth laughed.

Jenny smiled and didn't speak. She touched her swollen belly and finally let go of Mr. Bingley.

And what about Lady Bentley?It turns out that the King of England confers some titles every New Year's Eve to reward those who have made special contributions. Caroline was one of them last year. This marks that Caroline has won the admission ticket of the upper class, although she will not become a top aristocrat. But it can also appear at the New Year's Palace Ball.

The New Year in London is also a social season, and various balls are staged in turn. This year's London social season, Caroline became the darling of the ball, and various noble men rushed to invite her, on the one hand because of her appearance, on the other hand because of The enormous wealth she was about to acquire.

Darcy had expected this a long time ago. He was glad that he became her fiancé one step earlier, so he justifiably chased away those wild butterflies, stayed with her all night, and danced more than a dozen dances. Therefore, he advanced the wedding date. on the agenda.

Darcy replied to Sir Lucas in the original book that he had never entered the palace to dance, only half of the truth was that he did not dance before, but he had entered the palace to participate in the ball.Although the Darcy family has a prominent status, there are many men who are nobler than him. His arrogance and indifference made many people criticize him. This time he surprised many people and caused some troubles.

These troubles are of course rotten peach blossoms. Some noblewomen and ladies who had admired him in the past began to inquire about Caroline. Everyone was impeccable in her appearance, and they were very jealous of her achievements. He used cold violence against her in an attempt to scare away this humble woman.

Caroline's background is not enough in the eyes of these nobles, and cold violence is their consistent practice, which once excluded many outsiders.

Caroline had been mentally prepared for this, she didn't panic, but observed them carefully.

Most of these women who reject her are not noble enough, they belong to the bottom of the nobility, and their resources are limited, so they are even more repulsive to outsiders, and for those truly noble women, it is impossible to socialize with her, so Caroline sat on the bench for a while .

Fortunately, Mrs. de Bower noticed her embarrassment and introduced her to some older ladies. Most of these people had attended her and Darcy's engagement ball. Caroline sat with them and gradually became familiar with them. .

Seeing this, those who rejected her catered to her again. Caroline was well aware of the hypocrisy of the upper class, and greeted them with a smile, and began to chat with them about clothing and jewelry, without any contradiction at the beginning.The evening was uneventful, and Mrs. de Bourgh applauded this, knowing that she had fully integrated into the rules of high society.
