Unfortunately, the Darcys were attending a social ball that night. During the social season when the Senate and the House of Representatives were resting, it was rare for the regent not to have more illegitimate children. He fell in love with an actress peacefully, and The most important thing is to be here with all your body and mind when going out to various occasions in public, and you don't have any extra energy to find another lover.So much so that people think this is very bad, it is generally believed that a man can linger in the flowers but never be too obsessed, which can lead to very serious problems.But the infatuation hadn't been more than four months old, so the worries didn't rise to the point of being objectionable.

And Mr. Darcy is talking to a group of gentlemen. If you haven't seen this man for a long time, you will not recognize this is the insolent Darcy. He is now very happy in his marriage. , Elizabeth is smart and beautiful, she manages Pemberley in an orderly manner, but the fly in the ointment is that the couple still lacks an heir, and because of the expansion of Mr. Darcy's career, he has little time to enjoy the quiet life before marriage. At the end of the season, I was able to take a breather among the beautiful mountains and rivers, but even more annoying relatives came to the door-specifically Lydia.

After Lydia's husband went to India, she almost stayed at Darcy's house, and what worried Elizabeth was that Lydia and Wickham's children hardly received good care. A young and frivolous woman, she was a child herself, so it was difficult to take care of the children, and the Bingley sisters were still unmarried, and they were not so friendly to Lydia, so Lydia and the children lived in Pemberley, Fortunately, this situation will change. Wickham is about to return to England and will be promoted to the rank of captain through his relationship. This is a real benefit of becoming Darcy and Bentley's brother-in-law.

Elizabeth at the ball is also arrogant to some extent. Her beauty is almost incomparable, her demeanor is more graceful, and besides that beauty, her temperament is even more unaffected, which makes people feel that she is very noble.Of course, the title of Mrs. Darcy adds points, but there is no doubt that Elizabeth's charming demeanor is even better after she becomes a married woman.She is chatting with some ladies who are usually relatively friendly. Although their topics are always inseparable from clothing and perfume, just as men cannot be separated from politics and money, this is also a good source of information.Although she doesn't like these things, they are more interesting than these walks in the wilderness of England's highlands, but this is what Mrs. Darcy must learn, and she can't be as innocent as a young girl.

Mrs. Pace whispered to Elizabeth: "Mrs. Darcy, have you heard that Mrs. Ebraron is holding a salon. This fashionable business is introduced from France. In the salon, men and women talk together without introduction. It's out of order. There are poor painters and writers who show up at salons."

Elizabeth didn't know much about this fashion, but the other ladies thought it was downright obscene, not just because of how an Englishman could learn something from a Frenchie, but also because the men and women in the salons weren't formally introduced, This is simply too much nonsense.But Elizabeth never liked to judge things and people arbitrarily, and she almost missed a good marriage because of being too arbitrarily, so she replied: "Mrs. Men and women don't do anything indecent, wouldn't it be great to have another way to meet young people?"

"That's right, it's very fashionable, especially among young, unmarried young men," interjected Madame Farabe, who, being of French descent, did not find it surprising that, although salons were still a novelty in France, the world did not. There is no shortage of people who pursue fashion, and the salons are all about painting and academic matters. Sometimes there are perfume and clothing salons, which are interesting.

So this young and fashionable lady said without hesitation that there are some less serious salons in France. They don't discuss philosophy and art, but discuss topics that women are interested in, and they can also have no male guests. This is exactly the British lady. Afternoon tea between the ladies.

In the beginning Mrs. Ebraron liked this young man very much, he was so flattering, and you couldn't help but believe them when you stared at you with those sincere green eyes, but as time went by, she found that this young man had nothing but a sweet mouth and a good dancer There is no advantage in appearance, oh, by the way, that handsome and fascinating face is also an advantage.But the short-sighted moment of the poor in him makes people feel that he is hiding something, and Mrs. Ebraron finds out that he is a lowly orphan.In London's social circle, he almost lives under the skirts of women, relying on the favor of the women to get money, the ladies enjoy the flattery of this man, and the wives still love him although they will not become lovers with him because of their social status. He was very fond of him, and Mr. Benest's main objects of pleasure were widows and old aunts who were rich and vain and enjoyed the adulation of handsome young men.

To be honest, there are countless young people like this in London, relying on women to live.But this gentleman is so stupid, does he really think that those ladies and ladies will marry him?Of course not, he is just their pet puppy, they enjoy his flattery and courtship, but they will never marry a penniless commoner with no social status.

They were on their way to church when they were caught, God Ah, she dared not imagine the dire consequences if they found her later.

She was sitting in the living room crying, while Elena was locked in the room, and Mr. Benest was guarded by several servants. Ai Bolang's husband was so angry that he fainted when he heard the news. Mrs. Braun quarreled. He had already said that the salon was really immoral, and men and women directly contacted each other without formal social introductions.
