[Pride and Prejudice] Wisdom

The wedding is scheduled for Thursday.

So on Wednesday, Charlotte, who was going to be a bride tomorrow, came to say goodbye to her good sister.

Perhaps because of Mr. Darcy, even though Collins plans to marry Charlotte, Mrs. Bennet does not feel much blame for Charlotte now.

She even thought in her heart that if she had agreed to Collins, it would have been a real disaster.

Charlotte was surprised not to hear Mrs. Bennet's cynicism, and even got a blessing or two from her.

Charlotte naturally thanked Mrs. Bennet. She bit her lip and kept her eyes on Elizabeth.

It was rare for Lydia not to be "kicked out of the house" by her mother today. She nestled comfortably on her bed for a while before lazily getting up.

When she went downstairs on the creaking stairs, she saw Elizabeth with a relieved face.

"Charlotte has just been here." Elizabeth said to her sister.

Lydia picked up the milk on the table and took a sip. The white milk stains got on the fine hair around her mouth mischievously. She really looked like a child who hadn't grown up.

"As soon as the wedding is over tomorrow, she will leave here. Did you come to say goodbye today?" Lydia asked Elizabeth while drinking the milk in her hand.

Elizabeth handed her a handkerchief and motioned her to wipe her mouth.

Lydia blushed a little, put down the cup in her hand, and wiped it quickly.

"Yes, she just left, before she left... said something to me." Elizabeth said.

"Then you understand her now?"

"I can understand what she's doing, but I can't accept it."

After all, everyone thinks differently, and Lydia has no problem with it.

The wedding ceremony was held as scheduled, with two more distinguished guests, Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley, Collins couldn't help but grin from ear to ear.

He welcomed them into the church. Collins himself was a pastor, and he knew a lot about the process of marriage.

The wedding was held very smoothly, and Collins thought that he had a relationship with these two big men when he picked up the plane. Satisfied, he didn't notice that while he was chattering, Darcy seemed to have a calm face, but the direction of his eyes , but not against him at all.

Darcy felt that his letter was pounding harder and harder, and he looked sideways at Lydia, who was holding his sister's hand and covering her mouth and smiling vigorously.

Today, perhaps because she is going to attend the wedding, she dresses up a lot more carefully than before.

Darcy's eyes slid over her smooth long hair, looking at her slightly parted rosy lips, his whole face was on fire.

After the wedding, Charlotte and Collins set foot on the way back to Hunsford directly. Before leaving, she said eagerly.

"Elizabeth, you must write to me often, right?"

"You can rest assured."

"So, is there one more thing I can ask you?" Charlotte lowered her eyes and said to her.

"Can you come and see me at Hunsford?"

Although Elizabeth wanted to decline, she couldn't find any excuse. In desperation, she pushed out her own sister as a shield.

"I still want to stay with Lydia. I promised her that I will stay with her when I come back."

"It's okay, just invite Lydia to come with me." Charlotte said anxiously: "My father and Maria will visit me in March."

Charlotte exhorted: "I hope you can come with them. To be honest, Elizabeth, I would like to expect the same from my family. I look forward to your coming."

At this point, Elizabeth could only nod her head.

The days after Charlotte's marriage did not seem to be any different, but in the small circle where gossip news is scarce, people still can't help being surprised by the news that this older unmarried woman is actually married.

After a period of time, Elizabeth also received a letter from her good friend.

Although they communicated frequently, the feeling of talking freely and revealing their hearts like before can no longer be found.

Elizabeth squeezed the letter, feeling a little melancholy in her heart.

Charlotte left, which had nothing to do with Mrs. Bennet, who was only looking forward to when Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley would visit again.

Fortunately, perhaps God really heard her prayer, and she soon received a request from these two gentlemen to come and be a guest.

Mrs. Bennet danced happily, and repeatedly told the helpers at home to treat this dinner well.

Darcy's house must have the freshest papers and the best information.

This is the benefit of rich people. No matter what you want, someone will naturally deliver it to you.

Knowing that Darcy would deliver the newspaper of the day every day, Lydia begged him to order several other kinds of newspapers for her.

"Anyway, it's to pass the time." Facing Darcy's questioning gaze, Lydia said seriously, and finally added with a smile.

"This can be regarded as indirectly cultivating the same hobbies as you."

Darcy felt as if his face was burning a little again.

Mrs. Bennet did her best to prepare for the upcoming dinner, and she must make Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley feel at home.

Of course, it would be great if the two gentlemen could quickly marry off the two girls in her family just like this.

The long-prepared dinner arrived in Mrs. Bennet's anticipation. When guests came to the house, Mr. Bennet inevitably came out to receive them.

He pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose, and squinted at the two heroic young men in front of him.

Of course, his most important thing was to stare at Darcy.

No matter how you look at it, he is an impeccable model of a gentleman, but why would he fall in love with Lydia?

Mr. Bennet fell into deep doubts.

If it's Lizzie, he can understand, and even Mary, although he will think that this gentleman has a strange taste, but he won't think too much about it.

But... he actually fell in love with Lydia? !

Mr. Bennet felt that he could not understand the thoughts of young people.

After everyone was seated, Mrs. Bennet arranged the two people in her heart very close. She was smiling and very satisfied.

As soon as the carefully prepared dishes were served, Mr. Bingley immediately praised them.

Mrs. Bennet made a rare refusal and said.

"These are all thanks to my daughters. Without them, I don't think this dinner would be as good as you praised."

The five Bennett sisters who were inexplicably blamed...

"Mom..." Just as Mary was about to say the words, Kitty's hand stopped under the table.

why don't you let me talk?

Mary's eyes were full of doubts about these words.

Kitty also admired her sister's elm head.

Because Darcy was close to Lydia, he could easily see Lydia lowering her eyelids slightly, her long eyelashes trembling, casting a beautiful shadow under the candlelight.

His heart was beating fast, and he thought about whether the speech he had prepared for a few days was all right. He repeated it in his heart several times, trying to speak fluently in the instant he spoke.

"Mr. Bennett, Mrs. Bennett." He waited for the end of the conversation between Mrs. Bennett and Bingley. Who knew that they were suspected of getting more and more speculative. Darcy held his patience and finally waited until they finished talking. The words came out immediately.

"What's the matter, Mr. Darcy?" Mrs. Bennet turned her loving eyes on him.

Mr. Bennet looked up too.

Everyone at the table looked at him.

Looking at Lydia's questioning gaze, Darcy silently recited Lydia's name several times in his heart.Only then made a sound after deliberation.

"I want to tell you one thing, Mr. Bennet. I don't know if you have time."

As soon as he said these words, everyone seemed to understand something in their hearts.Pairs of eyes rolled between the two of them.

"Of course, Mr. Darcy," said Mr. Bennet slowly.

So after dinner, under the strange eyes of a group of people, the two men walked into Mr. Bennet's forbidden place-his study.

"Say, what is Darcy going to say?" Bingley asked with some interest.

"Maybe, Lydia will know." Elizabeth looked at Lydia who was in a daze.

"...Why would I know!" Lydia looked back.

Why don't you know!

The expressions of the big guys clearly revealed this information.

Their guessing was going on outside the study, and in the study, the conversation between Darcy and Mr. Bennet was also coming to an end.

Mr. Bennet glanced at Darcy with a strange feeling in his heart.

I really didn't expect...

As soon as Mr. Bennet and Darcy left the door of the study, they immediately received everyone's attention.

Mrs. Bennet's reaction was the most violent, and the husband who was chasing her kept whispering in his ear: "What did Mr. Darcy say! What did Mr. Darcy say! My dear good sir!"

Mum, Mr. Darcy is still here, can you restrain yourself? !

The mood of the Bennet sisters is broken.
