[Pride and Prejudice] Liz's Little Vest

Mrs. Bennet did not expect her wish to be granted so soon.

Mr. Bingley was agreeable in every way.

He has an annual income of [-] pounds, and his life is rich enough; he has a gentle and modest personality, and it is estimated that he will never quarrel with Jane in his life; Netherfield Manor is so close to Ban's House, and he only needs three miles to visit in the future .

Most importantly, her lifelong wish is for her daughter to marry a good family.Jane is clearly off to a good start.

"My dear sir, I'm so happy!" Mrs. Bennet hugged Mr. Bennet and kissed him.It is rare for the husband to have the madness to dislike his wife.

"My dear wife, you can be happy in your heart." He said calmly, but the corners of his mouth could not conceal the joy.

The guests were all in the living room, but the owners of the Ban Mansion were in no mood to talk. Everyone quietly watched the movement of the restaurant, waiting for the happiest woman today to announce her good news.

Elizabeth is sitting on an armchair on the left, and Darcy is standing not far from her.She looked at him from time to time, and always caught his sight.In such a special atmosphere, the mood of the two people is inevitably a little uneasy.

The dream from last night played in Elizabeth's mind again, and her cheeks gradually turned red.

Fortunately, the door of the restaurant opened at this time, diverting everyone's attention in an instant.

Jane came out with a happy face. She immediately hugged Elizabeth and kept repeating that she was the happiest person in the world[1].

"I can't believe it, Liz, I can't believe it. I'm so happy, I'm so happy. Why can't everybody in the world be as happy as I am?"

Elizabeth congratulated Jane excitedly, and seeing the tears of happiness in Jane's eyes, she felt that she could empathize.

"I cannot think of anyone more deserving of such happiness than you, my dear Jane."

"Liz!" Jane blushed, and turned to look at Mr. Bingley who gave her this happiness.

Mr. Bingley stood between Mr. Darcy and Miss Bingley, apparently receiving their congratulations.

He seemed to feel Jane's gaze, and looked at it tenderly.

"She's nothing short of an angel," said Mr. Bingley enthusiastically. "I can't think of anyone more superior[2]."

"Charles. I know you're very excited now, but I think it's a bit biased to say that, because we know so many wonderful ladies," said Miss Bingley.

"No no, Caroline. Have you ever seen someone as beautiful as Jane? Such fair skin and smooth hair. Her skin looks so noble under her light-colored hair and bright eyes."

"I can't deny that Miss Jane's skin is fair, but I can't help but say that it's a little paler and less bloody." Miss Bingley was still a little unconvinced with her sister-in-law.

"Dear Caroline, your standards are too harsh. Jane was ill some time ago, and she just recovered from a serious illness. I am very happy to see her look like this." Mr. Bingley said.

Miss Bingley turned her face away and said no more.

But seeing Elizabeth and Jane approaching them, she politely forced herself into a friendly smile.

"I want to congratulate you, Mr. Bingley," said Elizabeth, laughing.

Miss Bingley did the same, congratulating Jane in a slightly flatter tone.

"Thank you, Miss Bennett. I am so happy, I am the happiest man in the world," said Mr. Bingley.

"My sister said the same thing just now." Elizabeth said.

Then she listened to Mr. Bingley praising Jane for another five minutes.Although people's words are not very reliable when they are in love, she sincerely hopes and believes that Jane and Mr. Bingley can be happy.

After waiting for Mr. Bingley to finish speaking, Darcy suddenly said: "As a celebration, I propose that a ball be held at Netherfield Manor."

His voice was not high, and his tone was cold.But after saying this, everyone in the living room fell silent.

Except for Elizabeth, everyone looked at Darcy in unison, and couldn't believe that such words would come out of Darcy's mouth.

"Insolent gentleman, I remember you saying that in the country you are surrounded by very dull and dull people. Why do you want to dance with country people again?" cried Mrs. Bennet. .

Darcy's face was a bit ugly, but he still said very patiently: "Mrs. Bennet, I am sorry for my lack of polite words and deeds before."

Mrs. Bennet was so startled that she was utterly speechless.

Mary, Kitty, and Lydia looked at Elizabeth again with strange expressions.

Elizabeth was busy smoothing things over: "I think this suggestion is very good, Mr. Darcy. You just came back from London and you also need a dance to relax."

"My dear Mr. Darcy, will you invite me?" asked Mr. Collins like a pug.

"For Miss Bennet's sake," said Darcy, "I wish I could invite everyone present." Then he smiled and said to Mr. Bingley, "Charles, you don't mind if I take Ni Rifei Manor for one night?"

"I dare say it's the second-best news I've heard today." Mr. Bingley clapped his hands in agreement. "You know how much I didn't like to see you standing on the side of the dance floor all by yourself, stupidly." .But I didn't expect Jane to take such a big face, because you said that you really hate dancing, unless you dance with people you know well[1]."

But after finishing speaking, he realized that the "Miss Bennet" Darcy said was not Jane, but her sister Elizabeth.

Realizing this, Mr. Bingley could not help but glance at Elizabeth, but did not correct his mistake.

"I'm really glad for you, Darcy, that you've taken the initiative to dance." Mr. Bingley only sighed again.

He paused, and then said again: "For Miss Bennet's sake, are you all free?" His tone was rarely playful that did not belong to his character.

"Trust me!" Miss Augusta asserted herself. "Of course Mr. Ke and I will go. Not to mention Mrs. Bennet, we will all go together if you set a time. Do you agree with me bringing some friends?" I think Mr Ke and I will make a lot of good friends in Meryton this week[2]."

"Sunday, I suppose? Darcy, what do you think? I have some friends from London coming, and I think it will be more lively. Miss Augusta, as long as the estate can accommodate, you want Take as many people as you want."

"Ah! Leave this matter to me. Give me carte blanche. I used to help my sister organize the banquet at the Maple Garden Mansion[2]. It would be best to leave the invitation to me too. I don't think so. A mistress can do it better than I can," said Miss Augusta triumphantly.

Mr. Darcy refused: "You only need to take Mr. Collins."

Mr. Bingley added kindly: "Of course, your friends are welcome too."

Augusta said: "Oh, how cunning you are. Give me the power to hold the banquet, and you will be relieved. I am not a young woman anymore. You have to believe that the woman who is about to marry is enough to bear the burden. It’s a heavy responsibility. Leave it to me to invite guests, and I’ll also arrange the banquet together[2].”

"No." Darcy said calmly, "there is only one lady in the world who is about to get married that I can entrust to invite guests to the ball that I am in charge of."

"...I guess it's the future Mrs. Bingley?" Miss Augusta looked at Jane [2] rather dejectedly.

"No," said Darcy.

Augusta: "Who is that, I can't guess now."

The rest of the people in the living room also looked at Darcy curiously, only Elizabeth blushed slightly, she knew what Darcy was going to say next.

Sure enough, she heard him say word by word:

"There is only one person I can trust to invite guests. That is the future Mrs. Darcy."

The author has something to say:

Darcy: I want to have a dance.

Mrs. Bennet: Insolent, Che.

Mr. Collins: Great!

Miss Augusta: I'm in charge!

Elizabeth: QwQ Why do I think you want to dance with me?
