[Comprehensive Classics] Different Jane
Chapter 80
While Jane and Mary were talking, Elizabeth didn't seem to notice that she was still staring at the book, motionless.
"Liz, Liz." Mary called twice, but Elizabeth still didn't hear it. She didn't come back to herself until Mary stretched out her hand and pushed her.
"Ah? What's the matter? Jane, you're back, Mary, what did you say to me just now?" Elizabeth was immersed in the story, her eyes were still blank.
"I didn't say anything, you are really absorbed." Mary was speechless.
Jane knew what Elizabeth was reading just by looking at the book cover. There were no complete works of Shakespeare in their family, at least not this one.The British seem to have a hard time rejecting Shakespeare, and so does Elizabeth.
"I bought some things for you guys, let's go to the room and have a look." Jane gestured to the several packages in her hand.
"Oh, no, please, let me finish this." Elizabeth coquettishly said, "I still have a little more!" She held up two-thirds of the book for Jane to read.
God damn it, you still haven't watched a third of it!
"Let Elizabeth read it here. Let's go up first. What Jane did you buy?" Mary said, putting away her book and standing up.
"I guess you may need something." Jane said and went upstairs with Mary, and Elizabeth quickly returned to the state of reading.
When Jane and Mary walked to the stairs, they heard Toby in the small restaurant next to him trying to speak something in non-standard English mixed with French.
Mary was very curious about Toby, "Where did you find this little French guy?" Mary asked Jane.
"You mean Toby? He was picked up by Mycroft when he was on an errand in France. I just needed a small worker, so he brought him back."
Mary: "...what?"
Mary's manipulation of her future brother-in-law is really incompetent.People chase girls to France and give them handkerchiefs, hats, perfumes, etc. You brought a little boy back from France as a gift?What kind of show operation is this?Jane, is it really okay for you to accept such a gift!
"Wow~" Mary couldn't help widening her eyes in amazement when she saw Jane's pile of things on the bed, "Why did you buy so many things...Jane, do we need so many things for the three-month class?" She was a little Uneasy.
Jane ignored Mary temporarily, she took out a list for comparison, and said: "Mary, take out all the things you and Liz prepared, let's check it out as soon as possible, if it is missing, it will be troublesome, I heard that the class is on It’s a very suburban place, so it’s definitely inconvenient to buy things.”
"Oh, good." Mary got up to unpack her luggage, and took out all the things that Jane had told them to bring when they came here.
"skirt?"
"We all brought a pair for prom and two for the day."
"Well. Shoes?"
"Prom shoes, everyday shoes, slippers."
"Okay. Underwear and pajamas?"
"Two sets, one set."
"Mary, didn't I tell you to bring at least one extra set? What if it rains and you can't do it?"
"But the box is so big, you can't fit it even if you carry more."
"Oh, all right. Fan?"
"Bring it, it's your Christmas present~"
"Okay. Gloves?"
"Bring... Let me see, here it is."
"Put it away, don't get confused. Belt?"
"At this."
"hat?"
"We only had bonnets."
"Okay, I think that's enough. Silk scarf?"
"In... I'm looking for it, oh, here it is."
"Handkerchief?"
"Bring a few, it should be... enough."
"It's okay, I've prepared some for you. And this, lace, it should be enough if you save it. Let me see what else is there, toothbrush towel?"
"Well, I did. Oh, Liz did, too, and I saw her pretend."
"Well, handbags, I made one for each of you, take it, you can change it."
"It's lovely. Did you embroider it, Jane?"
"Of course, it's all handmade. And this box, put it away too. Inside are thirty small hair clips. Oh, by the way, have you brought combs?"
"My God, I forgot, I don't know if Liz has brought it."
"You must remember to ask her later. If she doesn't bring you, you can still use mine for the time being. Don't find out when you get there. Ah, here I prepared a few hair ties for you two to use together."
"Okay...Jane, we shouldn't have dance class every day, right? Do we need to bring so many things?"
"Be prepared."
"Oh."
Jane doesn't know how to tell Mary that taste is reflected in daily life and aesthetics.
Look at Mrs. Wood, although her clothes are all in dark colors and she never wears any jewelry, her hair is always meticulous, her nails are always clean, she always walks in a leisurely manner, and she must be calm when she sits down. He straightened his back, spoke with a clear and accurate tone of voice, and even the handkerchiefs he used had to be embroidered with his initials.
This is the result of training from childhood.Jane has actually been greatly affected in the few months since she came here, and Mrs. Wood has corrected Jane's small details countless times, so when Jane returned to Longbourn last time, others felt that she was suddenly very different.
Jane and Mary counted what was needed and what might be needed, and then called Elizabeth up to check with her.Some things can be shared by two people, so only one set is prepared, and some things can't be shared by two people, so they have to put them away separately. Jane also brought her a bottle of small perfume for them.
"If you want to use it again, you have to return it to me if you don't need it." Jane said with a painful face, this thing is quite expensive.
"Okay." Elizabeth also knew this, and specially wrapped the perfume layer by layer and put it in the pile of clothes, in case the bottle would break.
There were so many odds and ends, that Elizabeth and Mary wondered why these little things filled two large trunks.
"This is the last one." Jane took out two notebooks, "New notebooks! We have to write down the lessons every day." She handed the notebooks to Elizabeth and Mary respectively, "I don't know if Catherine and Lydia have this opportunity yet, At least the two of you can’t waste your tuition fees, and then check with each other after you record what you’ve learned that day, you know? Just keep it as a diary.”
"Oh~" Elizabeth and Mary cried together, there was still homework!So annoying.But thinking that the two younger sisters might not have the opportunity to study like this in the future, the two of them felt that it was okay to work harder.
Elizabeth and Mary were as quiet as chickens at lunchtime.In Jane's description, Mrs. Wood is an open-minded and humorous old lady, but neither Elizabeth nor Mary thought that she had a stern face of the dean. It was too dark last night, and they were too sleepy, so they didn't pay attention. It's a bit embarrassing to face myself now... Oh, it's a bit impolite!
"Lunch was delicious." Elizabeth felt that she should say something, "Mrs. Wood, I heard that you helped us find the opportunity to learn from Mrs. Mira. I really, really appreciate it."
"Yes, yes." Mary was a little nervous when she saw a stranger, and she nodded in agreement with Elizabeth.
"No thanks, it's not a big deal." Mrs. Wood said disapprovingly.
Elizabeth looked at Jane for help.
Please, I'm going to be chatted to death, it's so embarrassing!
Jian Chao was speechless, she could see that Mrs. Wood did it on purpose.
"Well... Mrs. Olivia, do you need me to help Mrs. Mira bring anything?" Jane asked.
"Huh?" Mrs. Wood glanced at Jane, "Oh, yes, there are a few books, you can bring them to her for me."
Jane: "...Okay." Wait, what book?
There is no need for Jane to worry about the book. Mrs. Wood wrapped it tightly and gave it to Jane. She just needs to be responsible for taking it.But Mrs. Wood and Jane had a disagreement on who should go with Jane.
"I'm planning to go to the market when I come back. I need Toby to help me carry my things and luggage." Jane explained to Mrs. Wood tiredly.
Mrs. Wood: "Oh, Toby is so young, how can you let him carry heavy things? Dwyer will accompany you, and I will take Toby to the afternoon tea party, so it is settled."
Dwyer: "..." It doesn't matter if I lift heavy things, right?Did you think of me as a woman?
In the end Jane lost, and she got into the carriage with her sisters and Dwyer.
Tired.
"Why does Mrs. Olivia suddenly want to take Toby for afternoon tea?" Jane asked Dwyer strangely.
Dwyer didn't know either, she thought for a while, "Could it be because when she went to Mrs. Bart's house last time, she always boasted that her grandson is a language genius, and Mrs. Wood was stimulated?"
can't you?Besides, Toby wasn't Mrs. Wood's grandson, so what was the point of comparison?
Elizabeth and Mary didn't know what Jane was struggling with. The two of them had long been attracted by the scenery of Cambridge outside the carriage.
"Wow, it's the Cambridge River." (/≧▽≦)/
"Wow, what a wide street."ㄟ(≧◇≦)ㄏ
"Wow, what a beautiful house." (/≧▽≦)/
"Wow, what a handsome guy." (≧▽≦)/
"...Where is where?" (☆▽☆)
Jane: "..." It's time for training.
Dwyer: "..." Why does it feel different from the morning?
Jane coughed, and Elizabeth and Mary immediately woke up. There were outsiders in the carriage, and they quickly sat upright and pretended to be ladies, um...although it was a bit late. QQ
Jane laughed and said, "Don't shout so loudly, you can hear it outside." The implication was that they didn't care about looking out. Elizabeth and Mary laughed, and quickly crowded to the window again. So they stopped chirping loudly.
Jane and Dwyer exchanged helpless glances.Dwyer understands Elizabeth and Mary very well, two little girls who have never seen the world, it is normal to be curious.But Dwyer remembered when Jane first came, so it was because she was the eldest daughter?Miss Jane was quite different.
Mrs. Milla's home in Cambridge was a bit far from Mrs. Wood's side. It took about 45 minutes for the carriage to arrive, but Elizabeth and Mary thought it was quite fast.
It was a small house where Mrs. Milla lived in Cambridge when she was not at school. She had left Cambridge for many years after her marriage, and it had been left to her by her mother when she died.Mrs. Mira usually attends classes at the villa in Dekween Village. Today she came here to pick up two future students... the students who came through the back door, which made Mrs. Mira not very relieved.
"Bella, it seems someone is knocking at the door?" Mrs. Mira, who was knitting, asked the maid.
"Yes, I'll open the door." Bella put down the ball of thread in her hand, stood up, pulled her apron, and opened the door.
Taking advantage of this time, Mrs. Mira quickly threw the handicrafts into the basket, and put the basket on the small table behind the sofa that was not easy to be found.
So when Jane and her sister with two big suitcases came in, she saw Mrs. Mira standing straight in front of the armchair, reserved, elegant and with a hint of scrutiny.
Maid Bella: "...Miss Bennet." The wife is pretending again.
"Jane? Bennet sends you greetings." Jane and her sisters curtsied to Mrs. Mira.
"Nice to meet you." Mrs. Mira said, the action of the front one was standard, while the actions of the latter two were not satisfactory, but the posture was still graceful, and Mrs. Mira was quite satisfied.
Although Mira herself could only be said to be pretty when she was young, she is a face controler.Needless to say, Jane is the most beautiful girl in the whole family. Elizabeth has a different style from her sister, but she is also a well-known beauty in Longbourn. Although Mary is not as good as her sisters and younger sisters in appearance, but compared to other girls It is also gentle and cute.Mrs. Milla's dissatisfaction with Miss Bennet's jumping in line subsided a little.
"Sit down, please," said Mrs. Mira.
The author has something to say: Jane: Have you brought everything?
Mary: Can I pack you up?
Liz: Oh (obsessed with reading books)
The countdown begins, one!
