[Pride and Prejudice] My husband loves me again

Mrs. Bennet howled very loudly, and the grief was so genuine that it moved the hearts of the hearers and wept the listeners.

Elizabeth and her sisters were in shock. What should I do if my father ran away? I was in a hurry and waited online.

As for Mr. Darcy, Mr. Darcy said that he really couldn't figure it out.

It is not his conceit that in the few meetings he had with Mr. Bennet, the conversations had been relatively pleasant, and Mr. Bennet could not help expressing a slightly flattering attitude towards Darcy, although unlike Sir Lucas That's explicit, but overall pretty decent.So in Darcy's view, even if Mr. Bennet doesn't like him very much, he is definitely not annoying. He has a daughter like Elizabeth and he likes this daughter the most. Darcy doesn't think he will be in front of him. A character who spends a lot of time on acting.

Otherwise, he wouldn't like his daughter Elizabeth, after all, Mrs. Bennet's personality is irreparable, and the child has to be like either of the parents.

How could such a Mr. Bennet abandon a son-in-law like himself and run away by "over the wall" at a critical moment?

Or maybe I was being too wishful thinking?

You must know that Mrs. Bennet never hides or even yells that she hates the arrogant Mr. Darcy. Although her reputation is not very good, she has won a few words of praise from the powerful.

And Darcy didn't care what she thought of him at that time. No matter how much this ignorant village woman disliked herself, it couldn't affect the taste of even a sip of the wine in Pemberley Manor.But she is Mrs. Bennet's wife and Miss Elizabeth's mother, and she has an absolutely subtle influence on those close to her.

Maybe she influenced Mr. Bennet's attitude, and Mr. Bennet is obviously not as easily moved by Darcy's family status and property as his wife, so he chose to avoid Mr. Darcy because of the disparity in family status. and not see?

As a nodding acquaintance, Mr. Bennet may appreciate Mr. Darcy; however, as a son-in-law, he may feel that he is completely different.

Such speculation is a huge blow to Darcy's dignity.

The anxiety in the past few days and the constant setbacks in the marriage proposal made him feel a headache.

Elizabeth keenly noticed that Darcy's face began to look bad, only when Mrs. Bennet was making too much noise, which caused Darcy's displeasure.Elizabeth could not help rejoicing that Darcy would at least not accuse her mother of being indecent in person, no matter if she compromised because of love or because of her upbringing and patience.

"Let me take you out, Mr. Darcy." Elizabeth tried her best to restore the image of her family: "It's getting late now, and if you want to discuss something with my father, you can't do it today."

Darcy actually wanted to leave too, and the steps that Elizabeth handed over were just what he needed: "It can only be so, and it's my fault. I should have written to Mr. Bennet in advance to inform Mr. Bennet of my upcoming visit. If he had For other arrangements, I should naturally say goodbye. Next time...next time I will remember to write a letter."

Just don't know when the next time will be.

"Why blame yourself, Mr. Darcy," Elizabeth comforted him, "interest is always unpredictable. If you have the idea of ​​where to go, you may lose your previous interest when everything is ready. It's better to go!"

Darcy's words were just an excuse, so Elizabeth's consolation could not really make him happy: "Yeah, I also think that the timing is really unpredictable this time, and I hope that next time when everything is right, we can still have the same situation as now." mood, I shall look forward to it very much, Miss Elizabeth."

He can find the benefits of Elizabeth, and others will naturally find out, such as Wickham, if his style is a little more decent and not always around money and women, Darcy believes that he really has a crush on Elizabeth; and Colonel Fitzwilliam Darcy doesn't even know how to compete fairly with his blood cousin if he prefers Elizabeth to Anne.

So he impatiently wanted to make an engagement, and use his name to block other men's unreasonable thoughts.

Mr. Bennet abruptly let his idea die.

And it may be only a few minutes away. If the Bennets are not tight-lipped, new rumors will spread in the village: for example, Mr. Bennet can't bear a noble, rich and arrogant son-in-law like Mr. Darcy. , Not daring to wait for him to formally propose, so he jumped over the wall and ran away.

When this rumor spreads to London, the version may have evolved into that Darcy is a playboy who intends to seduce the daughter of a squire named Bennet. Willing to marry his daughter to him.

Darcy felt tremendous psychological pressure.

The reason why his moral standard is so much higher than Wickham's is because Wickham is shameless, but Darcy is shameless.

Mr. Bennet's running away makes Darcy lose face.

This hit Darcy's bottom line.

"I hope he didn't fall in love with some young talent elsewhere, and he's in a hurry to show you off now." The more Darcy thought about it, the more it happened. Although he was still joking, there was already a hint of it in his tone. A little serious.He never thought that he would be rejected by the father of his sweetheart, and if they did not get the consent of the woman's parents, it would not be a happy marriage.

"My father would not do this. He told me from a young age that I must choose someone I like and can speak for myself, so that married life will not be lonely, so he will never choose for me." Elizabeth can understand Darcy's eagerness, she even guessed that he might even have arranged where the wedding ceremony will be held. Seeing that there is only one step left to the end, this step is an unknown wait, but his guess still makes her Felt offended.

She had to admit that Darcy's worry was justified, because Mr. Bennet hadn't left a word, and the Bennet girls didn't know where to find him.Her father was a clear-headed gentleman of the old school, and although he had no interest in Mrs. Bennet or the other daughters, whom he despised, he was sure to explain something to the family when he went out.

This time he even deserted Elizabeth, and Elizabeth was not only sad, but also worried about the danger of him going on the road alone.

What she faced was the double pressure from her relatives and Darcy.

"I would be most obliged if you were sure that your father would not do anything like that," replied Darcy haughtily, having suffered enough humiliation today: "Then I take my leave, Miss Elizabeth, if you do not trouble Send me off, you should hurry home and think of a solution with your mother, I will wait for your good news."

Elizabeth wanted to comfort Darcy, but she didn't know how to comfort him. Not to mention Darcy lost his composure, even she couldn't face it calmly now.The most urgent thing is to go home and find a way to find her father. Her engagement is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Mary will marry Collins soon. If Mr. Bennet does not show up, there will be no wedding. The method is carried out on time.

She wanted to say goodbye to Darcy, but Darcy had strode away.

He is such a stubborn character, sometimes persuasion does not work, Darcy only focuses on how to solve practical problems.

Elizabeth trotted all the way home.

Mrs. Bennet has calmed down a lot, but her sadness has not eased in the slightest, because she has also realized that not only will there be four daughters who have not cleared the inventory, but the only one who has a marriage contract may not be able to get married for the time being: "God Damn Mr. Bennet," she cursed endlessly, "this is all your daughter, this is not all my daughter, don't you like Elizabeth the most? She almost became half a Derby Mistress of the county, but you're a father gone, you damned old thing!"

Mary felt that her future husband-in-law had a chance to perform: "Mom, why don't I go to Meryton to find Mr. Collins and let him think of a way."

Collins is already the closest male relative of the Bennet family. He is not only a cousin but also a son-in-law. Mr. Bennet has no other brothers to help, and Mary's suggestion sounds plausible.But let Collins go out, Elizabeth would rather put on a man's trousers and ride out to find her father.

"How can you bother Mr. Collins?!" Mrs. Bennet's thinking in this regard is much clearer: "Mr. Darcy is a man, he will not go around talking about Mr. Bennet's escape. If Mr. Collins If you can't hear it from other sources, don't take the initiative to tell him about it. Maybe your father will come back before the wedding, so why worry your future son-in-law. Jane, write to Mr. Gardiner. "

This saves Elizabeth's tongue. She originally wanted Mrs. Bennet to ask Uncle Gardiner for help. This couple is the most reliable of all relatives.

"Let's do this," Elizabeth said to Jane in agreement, "Uncle Gardiner's family lives in London. If Dad goes to London, there is a great possibility, and it will be convenient for them to find someone."

Jane turned and went upstairs: "I'll write a letter right away."

All we can do is wait for Uncle Gardiner's news. In this day and age, a house full of women can't do anything.

Mrs. Bennet held Elizabeth's hand while weeping silently: "What a marriage, it just flew away."

Elizabeth didn't answer, but instead asked, "Dad suddenly decided to leave after receiving a letter from London. Does anyone know who wrote that letter?"

After asking the servant girl, the servant girl recalled it for a long time, and only remembered that it was a woman's signature, named Grenouille or something.

Mrs. Bennet was very pale. The name was unknown to her, and she was neither a relation nor a friend.

Before she knew it, Mr. Bennet met a strange woman.

She almost passed out.

There was a flurry of chaos in the house, and Mrs. Bennet was finally settled. Elizabeth had to write to Netherfield Gardens to ask Anne for help, hoping that she would ask Dr. Brown to make some sedative potion, saying that she wanted to use it herself, not Let people know that Mrs. Bennet needs it. This is just for the sake of face. Elizabeth believes that Anne will not ask more questions, because everyone knows Mrs. Bennet's nervousness.At the end of the letter, she inadvertently mentioned whether there was anyone with the surname Grenouille in London, because it was a French name, which was not common in London. Anne and her mother, the Duchess, often came and went in and out of London, so maybe they would know about it.

Anne was very helpful, and her reply arrived early the next morning, along with a dozen potions.

Mrs. Bennet didn't sleep all night. Knowing that it was the potion sent by Miss Anne, she drank it with trepidation, and she fell asleep peacefully.

It's just that Annie didn't reply to Elizabeth's question in the letter. She only said that she happened to know such a person, but the background of this person was too complicated, so she and Elizabeth agreed to meet.
