[Pride and Prejudice] A Gentleman's Love

"Would you mind dancing with me?"

Elizabeth raised her eyebrows, thought about the possibility that Mr. Darcy had taken the wrong medicine, and finally shook her head honestly.

"Sorry, Mr. Darcy, I usually don't want to get too close to people who look down on me from the bottom of my heart."

Elizabeth bowed gracefully again, and left.

The dance ended very quickly, at least for Lydia and the others, it was a blink of an eye. When they returned home, she and Catherine were still chatting about every content of the dance.Elizabeth, on the other hand, was so tired that she danced with several people in order to avoid the annoying Mr. Darcy.

"I need to free my toes." Elizabeth muttered, throwing off her shoes, and threw herself on the soft bed, narrowing her eyes in happiness.

Jane, who came in from behind, arranged Elizabeth's flying shoes neatly. She was sitting in front of the vanity mirror and was picking off her earrings.

Elizabeth turned her head, hugged the pillow and asked Jane: "Jane, how are you and Mr. Bingley?"

"Oh! Lizzy, please don't say that." Jane's face looked red, but she added shyly, "If you just ask my impression of Mr. Bingley, my dear, he is really a good man, handsome , Smart and funny!" The girl's face was flushed, as if she had seen a treasured rabbit.

"Oh! Jane, dear, you are in love!"

"God, my good girl, can you keep your little mouth in check?"

"Okay, okay, I won't make fun of you anymore." Elizabeth made a silent gesture, the blonde girl nodded and continued to comb her hair, but within a second, the naughty girl came from behind ghost voice.

"Then Mr. Bingley..."

"Elizabeth Bennett!" Jane held the comb in one hand, and turned her blushing pretty face towards Elizabeth, who was already rolling around on the quilt with laughter.

"You're so bad, so bad." Gentle Jane couldn't think of anything more brutal than so bad, but that didn't stop her bright brain from throwing a question that she thought would embarrass Elizabeth.

"And Mr. Darcy?"

"what?"

Elizabeth wiped her tears and got up from the messy bed.

"I said Mr. Darcy, I saw him talking to you at the ball, and more than once." Jane put down her comb, and walked to Elizabeth's bedside with her skirt in her hand, with a look on her face that I wouldn't let you be shy look like.But it's a pity, let's not say that Elizabeth doesn't have any thoughts about Mr. Darcy, even if she does, she is not a thin-skinned girl like Jane.

"Does my dear Jane like Mr. Darcy? That's not good, poor Mr. Bingley!"

"I don't like Mr. Darcy, Lizzy, don't talk nonsense." Jane said hastily.

"Oh..." Elizabeth prolonged the tone on purpose, and then asked again.

"And Mr. Bingley?"

"..." Jane was speechless for a while, and Elizabeth folded her arms and began to make fun of Miss Jane Bennet seriously.

"Okay, Lizzy, don't talk about me, you know I will never be able to talk about you." Jane gave a rare childish look.

Elizabeth decided to really stop teasing her.So she shook her head and said seriously: "I really don't like Mr. Darcy, he is a little too proud, but I don't really hate him, because although he is not a gentleman, he is much better than some people .”

"why?"

Elizabeth shrugged.That was not a decent gesture, and Mrs. Bennet might faint if she saw it.She always said that it was poor enough that the Bennet girls had no property, and that there should be absolutely nothing to be done about manners.

"At least he wasn't dancing with anyone." Elizabeth was referring to the two young officers who kept pestering her sisters.They hooked up at least a few little girls this night.And Mr. Darcy, for all his meanness and arrogance, at least appeared to be less sentimental, perhaps only because he was simply stingy about putting that sort of thing in his head.

"That's because he's a little too picky, and mother said that Mr. Darcy seemed to look down on the girls here, but I think I agree with you, Lizzy, that men should be like father."

Elizabeth's eyes were shining, she grabbed Jane's hand, and said happily: "My God, Jane, I thought you would say that men are like Mr. Bingley, don't you say that girls who fall in love are easy to be fools? You make me 's research has new evidence that smart girls don't stuff their heads with achnatherum when they're in love."

"Achnatherum splendens? Is it a new species?"

Elizabeth giggled, because isn't the irony of Achnatherum splendens the true biography of that shady gentleman?The laughing little girl buried herself in the quilt.Outside the quilt, Jane was gently tugging and asking her about Achnatherum splendens.

Elizabeth loves to do it.Dad once said that everyone should have a little space of their own.It doesn't really need to be huge, but it has to make you feel at ease, and Elizabeth likes the feeling of being wrapped up. The only downside is that there is no such thing as a flashlight in this day and age, which is a pity.

Since that ball, Mr. Bingley has lived in Netherfield Gardens, together with his sister and his friend Darcy, and Elizabeth didn't know the name of the arrogant gentleman until now—— William Darcy.

So he is too arrogant, when he wants to invite himself, he doesn't even bother to introduce his name first, and this is only because he knows mine, and may think it is unnecessary, as if I don't even have the qualification to know his name nothing.Elizabeth curled her lips in her heart, and because of this thought, she decided to temporarily throw Mr. Darcy into a corner, because she had more important things now.

The book lost at the lake last time was on loan.

Elizabeth likes to read books very much, but unlike Mary, a research-oriented girl, she doesn't like to read philosophy, but loves to read travel notes and natural geography.After traveling here, Elizabeth learned that Mr. Bennet is a book lover, and during that time, she also inquired about a newly opened place similar to a library, except that sometimes it also sells snacks and drinks.

Elizabeth came to the Bear Library.It's very quiet here. After all, it's the countryside. When the farming season is busy, everyone hangs out in the fields. When the farming season is slack, everyone gathers in lively places. Most of them are dancing or chatting. Who would waste social time reading these poor books? Woolen cloth?

There was only one person in Bear's library.That's a wonderful gentleman, he seems to know everything, but if you think he is a very approachable person, like his round glasses, then you are very wrong up.

Elizabeth didn't dare to go in at the thought of this.The courage I had built up along the way seemed to be completely deflated in my stomach.She was wandering around the door, but then she was a little embarrassed to find that this action always inexplicably gave off the air of a thief, so she went in anyway.

"Mr. Harnett, are you there?" Elizabeth yelled, but there was no one at the counter, but not long after, there was a rumbling sound from the second floor, Elizabeth's eyes widened, thinking Oh my god, is this movement the American brown bear coming out of the mountain?
