Pride and Prejudice Becoming Jane Bennet

Except for the doubts brought to Jane by Mr. Rushward's visit, everything seems to be moving in a good direction.Those mobsters at that time have been tried accordingly; with the help of Mr. Weston and Mr. Hunter, Mr. Gardiner's economic crisis has passed quickly; Mary has fully recovered; only Lydia's situation But it has always been the same, which makes the family living in Tian'en Temple Street very worried.Mrs. Weston came to visit from time to time, so as to share the hard work of taking care of the patients for Mrs. Gardiner and Jane, but the long-distance travel some time ago seems to have really exhausted her, and she always has to sleep for a long time before she wakes up.

On this day, Mr. Hunter brought a stranger when he came to visit.

"Mr. Gardiner, Mr. Bennet." He bowed to the two gentlemen who knew in advance that he would bring someone to visit, and introduced the gentleman beside him to them, "This is Dr. Jenner, he I have done a lot of research on Miss Lydia's situation, so I came here to take a look for Miss Lydia."

The family on Tianen Temple Street sought out many doctors to cure Lydia. The doctor who was in charge of Lydia at that time, a friend of Mr. Hunter, had also come to see him, but he was very concerned about Lydia. The situation is also helpless.Before leaving, the doctor mentioned Dr. Jenner to everyone, saying that he was better than himself, and there might be a way.It's just that this doctor is too busy. Mr. Bennet and Mr. Gardiner have visited several times, and Dr. Jenner is not at home. At this time, seeing him come to the door with Mr. Hunter in person, I am naturally grateful He was exhausted and hurriedly invited him to Lydia's room for his diagnosis.Jane saw a large group of people flocking outside Lydia's house, and forgot Mr. Hunter for a while. After thinking about it, she felt that going by herself would not be of much help, so she and Mary led Mr. Hunter to the meeting. Sit down in the living room.

"Lydia's matter troubles you." Jane said, "please allow me to express my thanks again."

"Please don't say that," said Mr. Hunt. "It's an honor to do my part."

He looked at Mary, smiled, and said, "Lydia will be my sister soon."

After a pause, he saw what Jane wanted to say, and said, "If you are thanking me for bringing Dr. Jenner here, then there is no need."

Jane blinked in surprise. She knew that her father and uncle had failed to visit several times. She also knew that Dr. Jenner, as a leader in the industry, was often paid a high price for his visits. He did not stay in the city on weekdays. It is conceivable that even Mr. Hunter and Dr. Jenner are friends, and it must have been a lot of effort to invite him this time.But now Mr. Hunter says that he doesn't need to thank him for this matter, so what's the matter?

Mr. Hunter looked at Jane's confused look, smiled, and said, "To tell you the truth, Miss Bennet, Dr. Jenner and I only met the day before... Find and persuade Dr. Jenner to come here There is someone else, I was just ordered to bring him here, and I dare not pretend to take his credit."

Jane and Mary looked at each other, and they were even more confused. It was hard for them to think that besides Mr. Weston and Mr. Hunter, there was another acquaintance in their family who had the ability to invite this famous doctor.

"Who is this benefactor?" asked Mary.

"This is a man we all know," said Mr. Hunt. "Since he didn't expressly ask me to keep his identity secret, I think I can tell you. He is Mr. Darcy!"

"Mr. Darcy?" Mary was stunned, couldn't help looking at Jane, and said, "How could it be him?"

Although Jane and Mary said that they met Mr. Darcy in Birmingham and were invited to visit Pemberley Manor, she did not tell Mary about the relationship between this gentleman and herself, so Mary always thought that Mr. Darcy invited Jane. Because of the relationship between Mr. Weston and Mr. Hunter, the relationship with his own family is very ordinary.

"Mr. Darcy is in town now?" asked Jane in surprise.

"Yes," said Mr. Hunt, nodding, "I was as surprised as you were when he found me and asked me to bring Dr. Jenner."

He smiled at Jane as he said this.If he was surprised at the moment and couldn't figure out why his friend did this, when he stepped into the gate of this family on Tian'en Temple Street and saw the lady sitting in front of him, he would also understand coming.He couldn't help laughing when he thought of the scene where his friend introduced Dr. Jenner to him, explaining that he was inconvenient to visit, and asked him to take Dr. Jenner to Tian'en Temple Street.Although Mr. Darcy implied in his words that he did not need to mention his role in this matter, since he himself has married and guessed his friend's mind, he is naturally willing to connect him.

"Did Miss Darcy and Mr. Bingley go to town with him?" Jane asked again.

"No," Mr. Hunt replied, "Darcy is the only one who went to town this time. According to him, he has some important business to go to town to deal with."

It is conceivable that Jane's heart fluctuated after hearing Mr. Hunter's words. She was about to ask something more, but at this moment, Mrs. Gardiner remembered that she had forgotten the guests in the living room and brought her cousins The cousins ​​came back and sat down beside Mr. Hunter and Jane.

"What did the doctor say?" Jane asked when she saw them coming.

"There is a blood clot in the brain or something," Mrs. Gardiner said, "and the memory is compressed..."

She shook her head with a smile, and said, "I don't quite understand what Dr. Jenner said. But what he said at the end is that the blood clot will disappear on its own. It's not a big problem, it just needs recuperation."

Jane nodded in relief.

They sat down for a while and chatted about the upcoming wedding of Mr. Hunter and Mary. They were all very happy to learn that although there were twists and turns in the wedding preparation process, it was proceeding steadily and properly.

"I hope that Miss Lydia will have recovered by then and can attend the banquet." Mr. Hunter said.

"Thank you, I believe she will be fine." Jane said.

At this time, Mr. Bennet and Mr. Gardiner accompanied Dr. Jenner out. The doctor told the Tianen Temple family what they need to pay attention to, and declined Mrs. Gardiner's kindness to keep him for dinner, saying that he would go on There was business, and left with Mr. Hunt.

"Dr. Jenner is indeed a famous doctor." After the two gentlemen left, Mr. Gardiner sat down and said.

"That's right." Mr. Bennet also said, "Mr. Hunter is so kind to invite such a busy man here to treat Lydia."

"There is one more person we want to thank." Mary looked at Jane and found that she had no intention of speaking, so she said, "We also want to thank Mr. Darcy."

"Mr. Darcy?" asked Mr. Bennet, greatly surprised, "what has he to do with it?"

Jane had to explain, although she knew that her father would not understand why Mr. Darcy wanted to help Lydia.

"It was Mr. Darcy who found Dr. Jenner and persuaded him to come back to town," she said.

"This is really a strange thing." Mr. Bennet looked at his eldest daughter and said, "Mr. Darcy is willing to condescend to help us 'vulgar' people. Unbelievable!"

"Maybe we misunderstood him?" Jane raised her eyebrows and said, "Maybe he's not so unreasonable... Especially his good friend is about to marry one of our sisters?"

"If this Mr. Darcy really sent for Dr. Jenner," said Mrs. Gardiner, "why doesn't he come himself?"

"Mr. Darcy doesn't seem to want us to know he sent Dr. Jenner," said Mary.

"That's very queer," said Mrs. Gardiner. "Isn't it an embarrassing thing? Isn't it a good thing, don't you think, Edward?"

"That's certainly a good thing," said Mr. Gardiner.

"We folks never know what goes on in the minds of those noble people," said Mr. Bennet, "but if that's the case, I think maybe we'll have to come to the door tomorrow to thank this eccentric gentleman. "
