[Pride and Prejudice] Crossing into Elizabeth

Bingley didn't think much, said "good night" to Elizabeth and went back to the room. Elizabeth and Jane entered the room together. Elizabeth was curious about what Jane wanted to say to her.Jane sighed as soon as she entered the door, and she quickly said: "Lizzie, Bingley got angry at me today, because of Lydia's matter, I didn't want to talk about it, but then I thought about it, the relationship between us sisters What can't you say? Oh, Lizzie, marriage is so good. Bingley thinks Lydia is very rude and hurts his face, so I shouldn't bring her. Oh, I also I know Lydia is ignorant, but she refuses to listen to others' persuasion, and my mother spoils her so much, what can I do?"

Only then did Elizabeth realize that Jane came to complain to her, so Elizabeth persuaded her a few words, what marriage needs to be managed, what husband and wife need to work together, in fact, what does Elizabeth know, she has never been married, so Those theoretical things can comfort and comfort Jane.

Jane didn't expect Elizabeth to say anything at first, and she felt much more comfortable when she said what was in her heart. Soon Jane talked about another thing, and Jane said to Elizabeth: "Lizzie, have you noticed Caroline likes Mr Darcy very much, but Mr Darcy is normal to her."

Elizabeth said: "Am I that stupid? Of course I can see that not only Miss Bingley, but also Lady Catherine wants Mr. Darcy to be her son-in-law."

Jane said: "But it's no wonder. Mr. Darcy is so handsome, so good, and of a good family background. Of course he is pleasing."

Elizabeth asked Jane: "Do you think Mr. Darcy is handsome? Even more handsome than Mr. Bingley?"

Jane made a gesture to hit her, and Elizabeth smiled and hid aside.

The two quarreled for a while, and Elizabeth said: "If you want me to say, Mr. Darcy is indeed very handsome. If Mr. Darcy proposes to me, I will definitely agree to it without saying a word."

"You really dare to say it." Jane couldn't stand it.

Elizabeth stopped teasing her, and she asked Jane: "Jane, what do you think Mrs. Catherine called Mr. Darcy to say? Didn't she want him to marry Miss Anne?"

Jane didn't think about this question. She asked Elizabeth: "I don't know, but this is too reckless, right? Lady Catherine wouldn't do that, would she?"

Elizabeth did not have such confidence as Jane, who thought the whole world was as reasonable as her.

On the second day, Elizabeth was interested in observing Lady Catherine and Mr. Darcy.From the expressions of the two of them, Elizabeth quickly concluded that, whatever Lady Catherine might have asked of Mr. Darcy, she had failed.

But Mrs. Catherine will not give up easily. After breakfast, Mrs. Catherine said to Mr. Darcy: "Darcy, I said yesterday that I would take these young ladies to do shopping. Then I thought about it again. Don't wait two days, go today, take advantage of the good weather today, otherwise I don't know what the weather will be like in two days, I think it will probably rain tomorrow. Darcy, you are here Master, you are familiar with this place, and you will come with us, Georgiana and Anne, and Miss Elizabeth, so there will be five of us, and there will be no room for any more."

Mr. Darcy wanted to refuse his aunt's proposal, but then he heard his aunt said that he would take Miss Elizabeth with him, and he swallowed his refusal when he was on the verge of refusal.

Elizabeth was a little dumbfounded, why did she bring her along?

What's the matter with her when they go out as a family?

When Elizabeth was dumbfounded, Mrs. Catherine had already started ordering the servants to harness the carriage. Miss Bingley didn't expect Mrs. Catherine to do such a trick, and she just left her behind. However, Mrs. Catherine made such an arrangement, and Mr. Darcy did not object. Miss Bingley You can't force yourself to follow, you can only sulk yourself.

Lydia was very upset and was about to speak. Seeing this, Jane hurriedly whispered to her: "Dear Lydia, I will take you around in two days, and then you can buy whatever you want. You can buy as much as you want, okay?"

Lydia nodded in agreement.

But Elizabeth really doesn't want to go with them. Madam Catherine's arrangement is obviously purposeful. It's embarrassing for her to be mixed in with an outsider. Elizabeth said to Madam Catherine: "Madam, thank you for your kindness, but I There is nothing to buy."

Lady Catherine glanced at her, and said: "How can a young girl have nothing to buy? Come on, don't refuse, my carriage can just take you, and besides, you are a little girl I like very much." , so it's decided, you go with us."

Elizabeth looked at Jane. Jane had already had a bad fight with Lydia and her husband, but now she was afraid of making everyone unhappy because of other things, so she whispered to Elizabeth: "Lizzie, you can go."

Jane said so, and Elizabeth had no choice but to go with her.

When everyone went upstairs to prepare, Jane entered Elizabeth's room again, and she insisted on giving Elizabeth some pounds.

Elizabeth smiled and said, "I don't need these, my father gave us the money before Lydia and I set off."

But Jane still insisted that Elizabeth accept it, and Jane said: "You just take it, maybe you will use it. If you don't have enough money by then, you will not look good."

Elizabeth also accepted it. In fact, the money Mr. Bennet gave her is definitely enough, but Jane is not short of this. Elizabeth thinks that Jane is kind, and she doesn't need to argue with her about it.Elizabeth changed her dress, and soon went out again, and the Darcys were waiting at the door.

Mr. Darcy wanted to talk to Elizabeth very much. Mr. Darcy thought about it, and the only one who had contact with them was Mr. Bingley. As soon as Elizabeth approached, Mr. Darcy said: "Miss Elizabeth, when Bingley got married, I was I wanted to go and congratulate him in person, but I couldn't go because of some business, but he will be happy after marrying another sister. I hope Mrs. Bingley and Mr. Bingley will be happy when they are married. I think you think they too Have a good time getting along?"

Elizabeth thought that it was right for you to be caught up in affairs, otherwise the marriage between Jane and Mr. Bingley might be blown up.

Thinking of this, Elizabeth still said politely: "Mr. Darcy, thank you for your concern. I believe my sister and Mr. Bingley are living happily."

Mr. Darcy added: "Bingley can take Netherfield without hesitation. I guess Hertfordshire must be a very beautiful place."

Elizabeth said: "I can't draw conclusions from that, and I shouldn't be boasting, but if you must ask me, I will say that my hometown is indeed a very pleasant place."

Mr. Darcy smiled. He wanted to say something more, but Mrs. Catherine came over. As soon as Mrs. Catherine came over, she asked: "Darcy, what were you talking to Miss Bennet just now? Tell me." "

Mr. Darcy could only say: "Aunt, I am talking to Miss Elizabeth about Bingley's house in Hertfordshire."

Mrs. Catherine gave an "ah" and said, "you are talking about this. Speaking of this, I really don't understand how Mr. Bingley can go to such a place to rent a house. It's really strange. I really don't know." I understand why Mr. Bingley doesn't buy a house, even if it is a smaller house, it is much better than renting a house, and you will never want to live comfortably in a rented house."

Lady Catherine spoke very rudely, and Elizabeth could not contradict the old lady, so she pretended not to hear.

Darcy thought Lady Catherine was being rude, so he ignored her.

They waited a long time longer before Miss Anne arrived so late that even Lady Catherine could not refrain from saying a word to her.Miss Anne just kept silent. Mrs. Jenkinson and Miss Anne came together. She has been with Miss Anne for many years and is responsible for taking care of Miss Anne. Mrs. Jenkinson is always worried that Miss Anne wears thin clothes and eats little. The young lady came downstairs, and she followed me and said, "Oh, Miss Anne, why don't you listen to me? It's so cold outside, why don't you want to wear that thick royal blue cloak? You wear If you go out like this, you will definitely get sick."

Miss Anne was probably annoyed, so she frowned. Elizabeth didn't know if it was her own illusion, she felt that Miss Anne looked particularly stubborn.

Mrs. Catherine pursed her lips, and said to Mrs. Jenkinson, "Go and get that royal blue cloak."

Mrs. Jenkinson was ordered to go, and Miss Anne frowned even more at her mother's words.

Elizabeth looked at the unhappiness between the mother and daughter.

Mr. Darcy also saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, and Miss Darcy didn't know anything, so he walked over to Miss Anne and said, "Annie, you are not in good health, and you can't stand the wind. Just listen to your aunt and Mrs. Jenkinson and wear more."

Miss Anne also knew that Georgiana was doing it for her own good, but her personality was like this, she would ignore others when she was unhappy, so it was useless for Georgiana to say it. Miss Anne was still cold-faced, but Mrs. Jenkinson took the cloak When it came, she put it on obediently.

Miss Darcy, in all her dullness, knew that her cousin was unhappy, and she looked at her brother, asking him what was the matter with her eyes.The older brother shook his head at her, telling her not to meddle in other people's business.

The carriage was ready early in the morning, and after Miss Anne got dressed, they boarded the carriage and set off.

Mr. Darcy wanted to sit outside, but was stopped by Mrs. Catherine. Mrs. Catherine said: "Why are you sitting outside? Darcy, it's too cold outside. Come in and sit. It's been a long time since you saw me. You must have There are many things you want to say to your aunt and Anne?"

Elizabeth didn't know whether Mr. Darcy really had a lot to say to Catherine and her daughter, but this carriage can really accommodate another person, and the space inside is very large and spacious. Lady Catherine's carriage seems to be specially made, It's bigger than normal carriages.

After listening to his aunt, Mr. Darcy came in and sat down.

Because Catherine and her daughter got into the carriage first, Elizabeth and Miss Darcy sat nearer to the outside, and Mr. Darcy sat down next to his sister, who happened to be facing Elizabeth.
