Understood, Eliza. "

Darcy stood beside the carriage and asked stubbornly.

"I know you're not a vexatious girl, so what's going on? What's upset you?"

Darcy's voice was steady and heavy, it was obviously such a reassuring voice, but it brought out Lizzy's tears.

She turned her head to the other side, unwilling to let him see her distress.It's just the trembling of her voice, but she can't hide her emotions.

"It has nothing to do with you, Mr. Darcy, it has nothing to do with it."

"Very well, Elizabeth Bennet,"

Darcy was angry too, and the anger in his voice was palpable.Being rejected repeatedly by the girl he likes, after all, it is hard to face.No matter how calm his temper is, he is still just a young man under 30 years old.

"very good!"

Even more aggrieved, Lizzy simply took a handkerchief and covered her face.

"Boom"

The car door was hammered hard, and then there was the sound of Darcy's footsteps gradually going away.

The leather boots rubbing against the stones on the ground also grind Lizzy's heart.

Lizzy raised her head and looked at the stars in the night sky through the silk handkerchief, with tears streaming down the corners of her eyes non-stop.

sisters

The sun hit the eyelids, very dazzling, Lizzy turned over and pulled the quilt over her head.

The nose is still humming, and the eyes are sore.

This is completely self-inflicted. Who told her to hide in the quilt and cry secretly last night?

This seems to be quite unpromising, but she is really wronged.

Therefore, instead of getting up this morning to go for a walk in the woods and read in the morning, she chose to stay on the bed.Of course, she couldn't really sleep in without caring, and she still missed that man in her heart.

For example: Is he still waiting there this morning, or is he no longer planning to have any communication with himself, and is this the end of them.

Lizzy was in great pain, and she would really not be reconciled if it was over like this.

But while she was sad about yesterday's quarrel, she regretted and persisted.This conflicting emotion kept her up all night.

"Lizzy, it's so rare that you're still sleeping?"

Jiying stood by the bed, looking at her sister curled up in surprise.

She reached out and pulled the corner of the quilt.Trying to wake up a snoozing girl.

"Jiying, I have a headache, don't bother me."

Lizzy's voice was muffled, perhaps because of the quilt, so Ji Ying didn't care.

"Honey, it's time for breakfast, are you sure you want to keep going?"

"I'm sleepy, Jane"

Lizzy was being coquettish, but Jane would not take it.

This eldest sister was unexpectedly stubborn. She pulled the quilt and said very resolutely:

"No, Lizzy, no matter what, I won't allow you to stay in bed unless you are sick."

"Alright alright"

Lizzy lifted the quilt, a pair of red and swollen eyes made her look even more haggard.

"God, Lizzy, what's the matter with you?"

Jiying jumped onto the bed, holding her sister's cheek in both hands, crying out in distress.

"I'm all right, Jane."

Lizzy turned away and covered her eyes with her left hand.She really didn't want more people to see her embarrassment.

"Lizzy, wait, I'll get you an ice pack."

Jiying hurriedly jumped out of bed.

"Jiying, don't let others know, please."

Lizzy pleaded, she didn't want her misery to be an excuse for others to show sympathy.

"Okay, don't worry, Lizzy."

Jane ran out of the room.

After a long time, I heard familiar footsteps outside the door, and Lizzy pursed her lips. Our Miss Bennet seemed to have encountered robbers on the way to get the ice compress.

The door was opened, and Ji Ying closed the door carefully. Like a happy robin, she fluttered her wings and landed beside Lizzy.

"A letter from Netherfield."

"Mr. Bingley?"

Lizzy snatched the ice pack from Jiying's other hand. Should she thank God that this sister in love didn't forget her sister because of excitement?

"No, Miss Bingley."

Lizzy's hand paused, and then pressed the ice pack on her eyelids.

"What did you say?"

Jiying unfolded the letter obediently, and began to read with a smile on her face:

"

My dear friend,

... Please have mercy and come to the house today to have dinner with me and Louisa. ... Please come as soon as possible after receiving the letter.Another: My brother and his friends all went to the officers for dinner.

Your forever friend Caroline Bingley"

"It turns out that Mr. Bingley is not here, my dear sister, it seems that you will not be able to see your darling this time when you are invited."

Lizzy said.

"Oh, my dear, I am very glad, even so, that the Bingley sisters are very kind people."

"Maybe,"

Lizzy moved the ice pack on her eyelids,

"Or they're so hypocritical that you can't see through their false masks."

"Lizzy, don't say that."

Jiying retorted softly,

"I borrowed a carriage from my mother, but she suggested that I had better go on horseback, because it was going to rain."

"What a clever mother. If it does rain, you can spend the night there. Of course, that's assuming they don't send you back in a carriage."

"Mother said that Mr. Bingley's carriage will be used to go to Meryton with friends, and there is no carriage in Netherfield to take me back. Although I prefer to go in a carriage, my father also said that it is indeed free now." No. I can only go on horseback.”

"Mother will be more relieved if you are seriously ill. After all, you were ordered by her to pursue Mr. Bingley desperately."

"Lizzy."

Jiying was so happy that she couldn't care about Lizzy anymore. She shuttled through the fitting room, picking out the right clothes.

When Lizzy went downstairs unharmed, she saw Mrs. Bennet staring excitedly at the windy weather outside the window.

Not long after Jiying went out, it began to rain heavily outside.

The whole family was worried, only Mrs. Bennet giggled happily for Miss Bennet, who was going through all kinds of storms.

It rained heavily for a long time, and Jiying did not come back, just as her mother hoped.

"My method is indeed excellent."

Mrs. Bennet was complacent, as if she had directed the rain.

On the second day, Lizzy still didn't go to the old place for morning reading.

Likewise, she once again failed to rest well due to insomnia.

Looking at the pale cheeks and haggard appearance in the vanity mirror, Lizzy herself felt horrible.And this kind of self-pity for Gu Jing didn't last long, and was interrupted by a messenger sent by Netherfield Garden.

"Lizzy, Lizzy"

Lydia jumped into her room and stuffed the envelope that had just been delivered into Lizzy's hand.

The youngest sister didn't linger here for long, she rushed out of the room with the speed of entering a door.Lizzy shook her head, opened the letter——

my dear Lizzy,

......... I felt unwell early this morning. I think it may be because I was exposed to the rain yesterday. ... I just had a sore throat and a headache, nothing serious. …………

"no big deal?"

Lizzy was very worried, and although she said nothing else between the lines, she could see Jane's pain.

She very much hopes that her relatives can accompany her.

Her relationship with Jiying is different from that of other sisters, it is a combination of friends and sisters.

Therefore, seeing her current situation, Lizzy was even more worried.

Clutching the letter paper in her hand, Lizzy immediately got up and walked quickly to the wardrobe.Just pull out a skirt and put it on.She simply pulled her braids, grabbed a shawl, opened the door, and rushed to the stairs.

"Father, mother, I must go to Netherfield."

Lizzy stood in the very center of the living room, facing Bennet's two parents firmly.

"What are you going to do?"

Mrs. Bennet screamed.

"Jiying is ill, and I'm going to see her."

"Oh, Lizzy, you're worrying too much. Jane's all right. I'm sure Netherfield will take good care of my oldest daughter. So, you needn't."

"I don't care, all I know is that I'm going to see Jane, she's very ill."

"There are no carriages at present, Lizzy."

Mr. Bennet frowned,

"Are you asking me to get you some horses to drive you?"

"No, I don't care how to get there. Even if I don't have a carriage or a horse, I can walk there on foot. In short, I must go!"

"Why are you so stupid, you don't even look at the weather outside. You can figure it out, how are you going to get there? On foot? When you get to Netherfield, will you still see people?"

"I don't care, I must see Jiying."

Lizzy was very stubborn, which left both Mrs. Bennet and Mr. Bennet no choice but to nod in agreement.

Lizzy wrapped her shawl and stepped out the door.

If she hadn't known that Jane was seriously ill, she wouldn't have rushed to the manor with Darcy in such a rash manner.

However, wanting to see Darcy and not wanting to see Darcy, these two emotions have tortured her to the point of exhaustion.Coupled with the fact that Jiying was running for love and became seriously ill in the rain, she no longer knew what to do, so she could only obey the most urgent desire in her heart and go to see Jiying.

After taking two steps, there was a burst of laughter behind her, and Lydia and Catherine chased after her.

"We're going to Meryton, let's go together."

Lizzy smiled and pulled the two younger sisters.

"Are you here to see Captain Cuttle?"

"Yes, if we hurry, we may catch a glimpse of him before he leaves."

Lizzy shook her head helplessly, she really had nothing to say about the two officers, especially Lydia, she was especially enthusiastic about men in military uniforms
