[Pride and Prejudice] Mrs Bennett

Chapter 42

In this era, the general environment in the West is much more relaxed than in the East. It is normal for a man and a woman to look at each other before marriage. Unlike the East, where everything has to be covered up, this kind of look is still inappropriate in a more traditional family. Totally shouldn't have happened.

While Grace was thankful that she did not travel to the East, she began to give Dylan a task, asking him to secretly investigate the two people she and Mr. Bennett were optimistic about and their families. Approach the two.How can she be too close to a young man as a noble lady? It really is more appropriate for her son to do this kind of thing.

After being speechless for a moment, Dylan packed up and left Langbourne for London. Although he was a little dissatisfied, it was related to the lifelong events of his two baby sisters, so he naturally had to be prepared.

Dylan, who is good at dancing, attaches great importance to this matter, and spent nearly three years investigating the two candidates for brother-in-law.After Elizabeth and Darcy's eldest son's two-year-old birthday party passed, she officially attended the London social circles, and had a relationship with the two candidates selected by the Bennett couple.

At that time, the Bennett twins had turned 17 and were about to enter the social world in a year.This is their elder brother playing the vanguard for them, and he wants to see his sister-in-law by the way.Therefore, the families of Dylan's sudden approach to the two men are well aware of it, and the two male parties are also clear about it, and it is natural that the atmosphere is extremely harmonious.

Three months later, the two accepted Dylan's formal invitation to visit Longbourn with many gifts, and it was only logical that they would attend the ball held by the Bennett family a month later.

Grace has never felt that there is anything wrong with facial control.She is a face controler. If Mr. Bennett's appearance hadn't satisfied her so much, what would happen to their married life is another matter.Since they will meet each other all day long, and they will be the two people who have been together the longest, it is better to favor each other in appearance.

He is not worried about his daughter Grace. She and Mr. Bennett are not bad in appearance and can even be said to be beautiful and handsome, and their children are also good-looking.In the original book, the five daughters of the Bennett family are all beautiful, and even the worst-looking Mary can be regarded as a beauty in Longbourne.

Now Grace and Bennett's children are naturally not bad, they not only have appearance but also have outstanding temperament.The young people selected by the two screen sparrows are also descendants of nobles, and nobles usually mean extraordinary looks.

As a result, at the Bennett's ball, the unmarried young people of Longbourn could only watch helplessly as the last two flowers of the Bennett's house were picked by the brats from London.

This result is not surprising to Grace, but what is surprising is the choice of the two young people.

Alyn Edwards, future baronet.Grace originally thought that he, who has his own views on literature, should have a lot in common with Mary, who loves books, but the reality is that he is now dancing with Catherine.

And Heller Harris, the second son of the earl's family.The ability is enough and the personality is slightly lively. Grace is very optimistic about him and Catherine, but it turns out that he and Mary are quite able to talk.

Before this dance, the four young people had been together for half a month.Take a walk together in the morning, enjoy afternoon tea together, read a book in the study and so on.Grace is very satisfied with the fact that the four young people have never got together to play cards. Compared with modern entertainment, this era is naturally less, but it is better to be less involved in things like gambling.

After all, in England, there are many aristocrats whose families were ruined because of gambling.

This is exactly the case, and Grace was only surprised. This was the result of the free choice of the four young people.Of course, this freedom is only relative, but no matter whether it is Mary Catherine, Arlin or Heller, they are very satisfied.

As a descendant of a nobleman, since he enjoyed the life of a nobleman, he naturally had to bear the obligations of being a nobleman.Marriage is not just the union of two people, but the union of two families.It is already a lucky thing to find a partner who can satisfy each other and is willing to spend a lifetime together within limited conditions.

The twins quickly accepted the two young men brought back by their parents to watch their elder brother let them have contact with each other.If it was before talking with Grace, they might object, thinking that their parents let them learn this and that when they were young, and they would be in charge of their marriage when they grow up, and they would want to rebel.

But the current twins don't think so.Since these two young people can be selected by their parents, and their elder brother Dylan also agrees with them, they naturally have their merits.After getting to know each other for a while, the twins understood that this was what their parents tried to find according to their preferences.

Everyone is from aristocratic background, and even if their conversational posture is not top-notch, it will not detract from their aristocratic demeanor.The most important thing is that they have a common language, and it won't happen that some people don't understand at all when talking about music, and it won't happen that some people can't catch up when talking about the plot of a certain novel.

It was also at this time that the twins had a more thorough understanding of what Grace said was a well-matched pair.If they didn't have similar education, how could they talk together?And if they want to grow up in such an educational environment, how can those families who have struggled for a few pounds and pence for a long time be able to provide it.

This is fine now, and the partners their parents have chosen for them both satisfy them both in appearance and in themselves.If they were asked to find out by themselves, they might not be able to meet such a good candidate.Mary and Catherine are quite self-aware, and although Jane and Elizabeth are their older sisters, they may not necessarily have the same luck as them.

The four of them danced in the hall together with others. They were tall and handsome men, and delicate and beautiful women, obviously becoming the focus of the crowd.And this focus is more like a beautiful picture scroll.

Standing in the corner, Grace smiled gratifiedly and sourly at this scene. She was pleased that her daughter could find a good home, but she felt quite sad when she thought that the two would get married soon.Fortunately, she also has an eldest son Dylan. If it is the same as in the original book, she will die of sadness, right?

Feeling uncomfortable, I naturally had to talk to my husband.But now is not the time to speak personally, so Grace can only change the way.

"Dear Cecil, this is completely different from what we planned." With a sigh, Grace held Mr. Bennett's arm and said in a somewhat resentful tone.Although the daughters and the young man she had a crush on fell in love with, it was completely different from what she had imagined.Could it be that she doesn't know her daughters well enough to reverse their favorite types?

Patting Grace's hand comfortingly, Mr. Bennett said: "Grace, when Dylan and Miss Darcy got engaged, didn't you tell me that children and grandchildren are only blessed by children and grandchildren? Marriage is too much to worry about. What about you now?"

Grace did not expect Mr. Bennett, who has always been a gentleman, to stab her like this. She has already completely distinguished Cecil from the Mr. Bennett in the original book who loves to sarcasm his wife.It turned out that her Cecil had the same venomous tongue, but he basically wouldn't spray venom on her.

He opened his mouth, and in the end Grace just gave him a hard look, and ran to the corner to drag Dylan to gossip.It's better to be a son, who doesn't dare to talk to her like his father!

Dylan is very helpless, his mother has always been very elegant, and usually when he is so awkward, his father must be teasing him.For the father, this is the interest between their husband and wife, but for their children, it is troublesome.

On the dance floor, the twins looked at each other and then secretly smiled.In fact, the mother knows their personalities very well, and also knows what kind of life they like.However, how can the feeling of liking and loving be so simple?Mary just has feelings for Heller, but Catherine and Arlin see each other.

Since we want to live for a lifetime, eyesight is still very important, we can't just choose it for the future life.

While the two young girls were shaking with laughter, the two young men also looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.

The daughter of Viscount Bennett's family has always had a good reputation in the social world, but this time, they finally seized the opportunity to stand here.

Although their feelings for the twins are not pure and there are many other considerations, they are both willing to treat their chosen future wives well.Dylan had told them before that this visit to Langbourne was just for them to get to know the twins, and as for what would happen, everything had to go with the flow.

Marriage is the intention of both families, but whether it can be achieved in the end depends on the choice of the parties.It is also the behavior of the Bennett family that regards their son-in-law as a part of their own family that makes the upper class flock to twins.

Not to mention Darcy, he was originally a famous family, and marrying Elizabeth was just icing on the cake.It was different for Bennett. His family only had some money. After the marriage with Jane was confirmed, the Bennett family helped a lot in their careers.

Of course, neither Mr. Bennett nor Dillon are the kind of people who don’t care about anything and give help. They just give advice to Bingley in business. Information and connections to him.

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach people.

What Bentley needed was not money. After all, although the money his father left him was not rich, it was enough for him to live his whole life.What he needs is the rise of the Bentley family again.

Not long after the Bennetts' rare dance, news broke that the twins, Mary and Catherine, were engaged.Lydia, who lived with her husband in Meryton after marriage, also heard the news. She came to Bennet Manor in a carriage to congratulate her two younger sisters.

Even though she didn't care about it when she first got married because she was too happy, but after such a long time, Lydia has noticed some clues.After Jane and Elizabeth got married, Grace often sent some things to the two of them, and the correspondence with Elizabeth was even more frequent, not to mention Jane, who lived in Longbourne together, and Grace basically went to the Visit her, and take a look at her grandchildren and grandchildren by the way.

And what about her?

Obviously living in Meryton, Grace would pass by here every time he visited Jane, but he never stopped to look at her.So what if there were the things that Grace ordered to be delivered, wouldn't she be her daughter when she married?
