Pride and Prejudice of Jane Eyre

"This is Miss Jane Eyre from Nieri Pei Garden. Just now Lydia ran to Nieri Pei for some reason and was discovered by us. Miss Ai was worried that Lydia would come back alone and insisted on sending her off with me. " Charlotte introduced, she consciously assumed the responsibility of introducing for both parties.

"Mrs. Bennet, sir, excuse me." Jane Eyre took out flowers from the car and handed them to Mrs. Bennet. Seeing the surprise and love on her face, she only smiled slightly, "Miss Lucas, Mrs. Be kind, I don't intend to speak ill of Miss Lydia in front of you, but she is really unsteady, and she knocked Miss Lucas down without apologizing—"

"Oh my God! Charlotte, I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" Jane immediately stepped forward to salute her with an apologetic face.Mr. Bennet glared at Lydia, who huddled behind Mrs. Bennet, out of his sight.

Charlotte explained that she was fine, just maybe a little bruised.Mrs. Bennet and Jane hurriedly asked them to come into the house and check it out for her.Charlotte refused several times but failed, so she had to follow them in.Mr. Bennet apologized: "It really surprised you. Lydia was spoiled by her mother and lost her manners. I must ask her to apologize to you. Come in and sit down, Liz, and prepare some refreshments!"

Jane Eyre did not refuse, and was surrounded by the crowd and walked into the manor at the invitation of Mr. Bennet.

She observed the big family calmly and calmly, making eye contact with them and saluting.Mrs. Bennet is plump and charming, and her delicate ruddy face symbolizes her good life; Miss Jane Bennet is undoubtedly the most beautiful of the five sisters. Unlike Lydia, her beauty is unoffensive Sex, her eyes seem to contain a pool of spring water, which is amiable; Elizabeth's appearance is not like her eldest sister, her jaw line is more robust, her demeanor is exactly the same as that of Mr. Bennet, and her eyes are bright and transparent; She is the most inconspicuous of all, she is taciturn, and she is also the one who cares the least about Jane Eyre; the first moment Katie saw Lydia, she greeted her, but Lydia did not respond with the same intimacy, shivering. Hiding out of Jane Eyre's sight.

"Oh! Lydia, why did you get yourself so dirty! Come and change with me!" Mrs. Bennet discovered the berry stains on Lydia's body by candlelight, and dragged Lidia Dia went upstairs.Jane Eyre is not the rich single gentleman that Mrs. Bennet expected earlier, and Mrs. Bennet is not very attentive.

Jane looked at Charlotte with apologetic eyes, and Elizabeth said to her: "Jane, I will take Charlotte to check. You stay here." As the eldest daughter, Jane naturally assumed the responsibility of accompanying the guests.She was very relieved of Elizabeth, so she nodded and called Jane Eyre to sit down on the sofa and talk.

Mr. Bennet sat down beside the older daughter, and Mary and Katie sat on the rug at Mr. Bennet's lap.

"I'm really sorry, Miss Love, Lydia has just been frightened recently, and her whole body has become different from before, and her mood is always unstable. If she bumps into you, I will replace her as the elder sister I apologize to you."

"I'm fine, I'm just worried about her safety. Miss Bennet, Miss Lydia is still so young, it's too dangerous to run to Nigerpei alone! Since she has been frightened recently, why don't you take care of her?" How about controlling her?" Seeing her embarrassed look, Jane Eyre added, "I'm not blaming you, it's just..."

"I understand, Miss Eyre. Lydia used to play with the Longborn children, and we were never worried. She has been ill lately, and we never thought she would go out again. Thank you for bringing her Come, or we will go crazy tonight." Jane held Jane Eyre's hand and thanked her sincerely.

Jane Eyre shook her head and said: "Langborn's country style is simple and simple, even if it is not me, there will be other people to help. However, I used to be a tutor. Seeing Lydia like this, I would like to remind you that she If you don't restrain your temper, you will suffer a lot - she is hiding in Nigerpei's garden today, and I think Mr. Bennet will not care about it for the sake of Mr. Bennet's face, but she bumped into Miss Lucas again. No apology." Charlotte couldn't understand what happened, and Jane Eyre, as her friend, wanted to seek justice for her, even if it was just an apology.

Miss Bennet's eyes were red with self-blame, and Mr. Bennet made a rescue, "It's Madam who indulged Lydia too much. It's not your fault, Jane." Then he looked at Jane Eyre, "Miss Eyre, I must Let Lydia apologize to you and Miss Lucas."

Jane Eyre nodded, and said with relief, "As long as she realizes her mistake, it will be fine."

At this moment, the kitchen servant came and brought tea, and the subject was dropped.Jane Eyre came to seek justice for Charlotte, not to intervene in the education of other people's daughters, so she was relieved after getting the promise.Mr. Bennet felt awkward sitting among the girls, so he found an excuse and went to the study.

"Miss Ai, have you ever been a tutor?" Mary, who had been silent on the side, suddenly asked.

"Yes, I used to support myself from this job."

"Sorry?" Jane pressed Mary's hand that was about to move.

"Oh! It's nothing! I'm not born to be a lady. At this time last year, I was still teaching at Lowood Charity School, and I found my relatives later." Jane Eyre replied.

"My God! You must have suffered a lot!" Jane whispered. At this moment, Elizabeth came down from the stairs: "Mother is applying medicine to Charlotte—what's the matter with Miss Eyre?"

Jane explained Jane Eyre's experience to her sister, and Elizabeth's eyes lit up: "So you must have a lot of knowledge! No wonder Charlotte praised you so much, saying that you are a rare lady! "

"I am not much of a lady, Miss Elizabeth. It is said that a lady must be well versed in music, singing, painting, dancing, and modern languages, and that she must speak and walk, and above all, she should read a lot."

"Miss Love, I'm afraid few people can meet this standard! I wonder if the person who said such a thing is a gentleman who matches him? However, I agree that there should be more ladies. As for art and behavior ——" Elizabeth was about to talk, but Jane bumped her elbow lightly, and she coughed lightly in embarrassment.

Jane Eyre smiled. Elizabeth was indeed impatient with the cumbersome etiquette and restraint just like the original book. She said, "I think the same as you. Wisdom is the greatest wealth. As for music and art, I am not proficient either."

Elizabeth found her bosom friend and sat beside Jane Eyre excitedly. Jane Eyre also had a wonderful feeling when she saw her radiant face.Elizabeth exchanged piano and painting with her, and found that both of them were not good at it, so they couldn't help smiling at each other.

"When Jane and I were young, there was a tutor at home who taught us to read, play the piano and paint. My mother always said that a lady must learn to play the piano and sing in order to attract attention in the social arena. Although I don't hate it, but I don't like it either. I can barely get it, unlike Jane, she is a good student."

"It's not so much that I use piano and painting as social means, it's better to say that this is the weight I used to support myself." Jane Eyre's tone was full of nostalgia, "Miss Elizabeth, it is also a kind of luck to use it as a pastime !"

Elizabeth tilted her head, pondered for a while, and then whispered in her ear: "Miss Eyre, if it's not necessary, I suggest you stop bringing up your experience as a tutor - I definitely don't look down on this profession, it's just... Gentlemen and ladies are always prejudiced against people who work, I admire your perseverance and courage, but the reality is."

Looking at her sincere and concerned eyes, Jane Eyre didn't know what to say for a while.There is no need to doubt Elizabeth's character, but she is also a lady of a gentleman's family after all.Although there are more and more women participating in the work, and there are more and more wealthy businessmen and laborers, the middle-class landlords and upper-class nobles still despise labor very much.They eat their income from real estate, but they don't care about work.

Jane Eyre suddenly remembered that in the original novel, Mrs. Bennet's natal family was not a landowner. Although her brother also had property in London, he was still looked down upon by gentlemen.

"Thank you for your reminder." Jane Eyre said softly, she neither nodded nor shook her head.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to deny you—"

"It's okay, I still want to thank you, Miss Elizabeth." Jane Eyre has never met someone who sarcastically criticized her identity before, even the arrogant Mr. Darcy did not fully accept it from the beginning .Elizabeth is a smart girl. Even though she has a temper and has her own opinions compared with other ladies, she is like a mirror and knows how to choose.

At this time, the cook informs the ladies that dinner is ready, and Jane Eyre wants to leave. "It's getting late, and I should go back. My father is waiting for me at home. Miss Bennet, how is Miss Lucas? I can send her back."

Only then did Jane think of her friend, and after going upstairs to inquire, she said to Jane Eyre: "Charlotte is staying here tonight, and she always stayed here before, and I will ask the groom to inform the Lucas family later. "

Elizabeth still wanted to keep her new friend for dinner, but Jane Eyre insisted on going back, so she had to give up.

Jane Eyre got up and put on her gloves and hat, "By the way, Miss Bennet, I invite your whole family to Niger Pei's dance—this is not a dance in 'that sense', my father and I just moved here Ford County, just want to ask the neighbors to warm up the house and talk."

"Ah! Can we go too!" Katie exclaimed excitedly, and Mary also looked forward to it.

"Mary, Katie. As long as mother agrees—of course!" Elizabeth was also very happy. Originally, Jane would definitely go, but she wasn't sure yet!Now that Niri Pei's master has invited them, they won't cause gossip anymore.

"Then, see you the day after tomorrow." Jane Eyre refused them to see them off, and climbed into her carriage alone.

The day of the ball was coming soon, and Jane Eyre and Lilith were busy all day, checking the band, desserts, wine, candles, flowers and the final decoration of the big ballroom.

Mr. Darcy did not come for a long time, and Jane Eyre ordered Wayne to investigate on the road several times, but there was no expected result.This made her extremely anxious, worried that something might happen to them on the way.

John couldn't see how flustered she was, so he took her to practice dancing: "I won't give you up for the opening dance, Janet, my dear. We must be safe!" Jane Eyre could only suppress the excitement in her heart. Irritated, after practicing with John three times, I stood in front of the door again, waiting for the arrival of the guests.

The sun gradually fell from the horizon, and the orange-yellow sunlight dyed the white clouds and the blue sky into a warm color.The heat of the summer day is gradually subsiding, and the cool evening wind blows the jasmine in the garden, bringing a burst of faint fragrance.This made her anxious mood gradually calm down.

"I should have confidence in Mr. Darcy, he will never break his promise." Jane Eyre told herself.

In the distance, several carriages are slowly approaching, which are not in the shape of the carriages in Peng Boli that Jane Eyre is familiar with.Jane Eyre cheered up and was ready to welcome the guests.

The guests came from several estates in Longborn and Meryton.Men are all wearing low-key but elegant dresses, and the skirts of ladies and ladies are like a hundred flowers blooming, competing for beauty.Not all of them were landlord families, and farmers with better conditions also came to try their luck. John didn't mind these, and welcomed them all warmly.

Lucas's family came early, and after Charlotte took her younger sister to meet Jane Eyre and saluted, she introduced those ladies to her, for which Jane Eyre was very grateful.No matter what the guests think in their hearts, everyone is very enthusiastic on the face. They praise Niripei's magnificence, and the men use unstinting boastful words to flatter this new man who will have a huge inheritance in the future. Neighbor—even if she's unremarkable in appearance.

"Oh! my God! Nijape Gardens are so beautiful, Bennet! Look at the flowers, look at the pattern of the rug, I dare say it's hard to get even in London!" Mrs. Bennet Hear his voice before seeing him.The guests turned their heads to look at the door. Mr. Bennet led the six ladies in the family and walked in one by one. The gentlemen stopped talking and couldn't help but look at this charming family. Together, they discussed the dress and makeup of the visitors in a low voice. Some of them showed disdainful expressions, and some secretly envied them.

I have to say that the picture of this family standing together is quite impactful.Even the most ordinary-looking Mary is more delicate and good-looking than most girls.

Soon, after meeting each other, everyone dispersed and found their familiar friends.When everyone was almost there, Lilith arranged for the ladies to go to the next room to change into soft-soled dancing shoes. Jane Eyre had something on her mind, and after being reminded by John, she managed to pull herself together.

The original casual and elegant music suddenly turned into a cheerful dance music, and the guests spread out to both sides, leaving an open space in the middle.Jane Eyre and John followed the rhythm and danced a dance that they had practiced many times.John's legs are not very good, but he dances with energy.Jane Eyre is not good at dancing, but she memorizes all the movements.

After dancing one dance, the guests slipped onto the dance floor before the hosts had time to leave. Jane Eyre was very happy seeing the lively scene in front of her.She and John slowly backed off the dance floor - John had just whispered to her that his knee was a little uncomfortable.

As soon as Jane Eyre stood by the door, there were lonely gentlemen approaching here. They were all gearing up, trying to snatch Miss Eyre's real first dance tonight.

"Ma'am, would you like to have a dance with me?" A familiar voice came from behind, Jane Eyre's eyes lit up, she turned around immediately, her long curly hair brushed across the chest of the person behind her.

He lifted a strand of long hair, pressed it to his lips, and pressed a kiss.

The author has something to say: *I cried, the time on the computer was inaccurate, and the full attendance was gone.

*I read many papers on HowNet today, which almost overturned my understanding of Elizabeth at the beginning...
