Pride and Prejudice of Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre has not seen Lilith showing such a flustered expression for a long time, Jane Eyre and Charlotte looked at each other speechlessly.

"Miss Jane! Just now Wayne told me that George—" Lilith covered her mouth, her eyes widened, and she looked at Charlotte, not knowing whether she should say it or not.Jane Eyre nodded: "Tell me, Miss Lucas also knows about Mr. Wickham, he... is a famous man."

Lilith looked at her in disbelief, and Jane Eyre shook her head slightly at her.Lilith finally let go of her heart, clenched her hands, and said in a low voice: "Wickham was found in the hotel covered in blood. People said that a nightmare banshee was betrayed by him and came to revenge! He His lower body...was completely severed."

"Ah!" Charlotte screamed. She never expected that the person she was discussing and laughing at just now would end up like this. Fear and guilt were intertwined in her heart.

"Don't be afraid!" Jane Eyre supported Charlotte, whose legs were weak, and then looked at Lilith, "What's going on now? Is he still alive? Has the murderer been found?"

Lilith shook her head: "He passed out completely when he was found, and the doctor is trying to save him. As for who the murderer is, even the hotel owner has no clue. He didn't see the 'banshee' or any other strangers. Go into his room. Although Wickham's room is in the middle of the corridor, only hotel guests and servants come and go. But..." She carefully looked at Jane Eyre, and whispered it in her ear Said: "The doctor's deputy asked who his family were, and Wickham had nothing but his clothes, and besides, in his current state..."

Jane Eyre frowned. Wickham's classmates might not know all about him, after all, he was always used to ostentatious.She was about to speak when she heard hurried footsteps on the stairs.

Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley trotted downstairs, putting on their coats.

"Janet, have you heard?" Mr. Darcy frowned, looking at the panicked Lilith, he put his arms around her shoulders, and brought her to the window to talk.Mr. Bingley consciously did not keep up, and ordered Lilith to let Wayne prepare the horse, and comforted Charlotte in a low voice.

"Wickham's condition is not good. Even if he is lucky enough to save his life, it will be very difficult for him to recover. The place where he was injured is really..." Mr. Darcy hesitated to speak, but Jane Eyre nodded calmly: "He can't Humane."

Mr. Darcy was momentarily at a loss as to what expression to make.

"No matter what happens to him, it's not our responsibility, Mr. Darcy." Jane Eyre took his hand, "He deserved it! He should have restrained himself, not everyone is as generous as you, he Retribution was met."

Jane Eyre changed the topic and slowed down her tone: "I have heard that they are inquiring about Wickham's family situation, Mr. Darcy, what are you going to do?"

"Wickham is my 'brother' after all, and I will bear the medical expenses." Seeing that Jane Eyre pursed her lips, Mr. Darcy explained, "I didn't pity him and clean up his tail for him. Of course he deserved it! But, my dear, in his current situation, he will inevitably go crazy under the collapse and say things that should not be said. Whether those words are true or not, they will put us in a passive situation."

Jane Eyre came to a sudden.

Mr. Darcy went on to say: "Instead of letting him talk nonsense, it's better for me to stand up and stop other people's mouths. My dear, if it's just me, I don't care if his reputation is ruined by him, but he is such a lunatic It is very likely that it will drag you into the water."

"But……"

"I am not the Virgin Mary, Janet." Mr. Darcy smiled slightly, "Although I am willing to be responsible for his medical expenses, he will be completely in my hands from now on. I will let him close Mouth."

There was no better way, so Jane Eyre could only nod her head.

"Then, you have to pay attention to safety!" Don't be hurt by a lunatic!Jane Eyre lowered her head and kissed his hand.

Mr. Darcy put his arms around her, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

"Georgianna and Miss Bingley, please. By the way, John and Mr. Philip should have arrived in Meryton. Sir Lucas and Mr. Bennet may have already rushed there. Such bloody things happened in the town. Gentlemen are obliged to focus on resolving this matter.”

"I wish you all the best, Mr. Darcy." Jane Eyre pulled down his collar and pressed a kiss on his cheek.

Charlotte bid farewell to Jane Eyre at the right time: "My mother must know more than us, I'll go back and find out the news first—God, such a thing happened, Elizabeth must be very sad."

Jane Eyre couldn't leave her, so she had to send a carriage to take Charlotte home.She probably knew that this might be Lydia's revenge, but everything was still undecided. Perhaps some dangerous person had really appeared in Longborn and Meryton.

Jane Eyre was at the gate of the manor, watching the carriage getting late, and sighed worriedly.

"Jane! I'm sorry... I heard the conversation between you and your brother." Georgiana's timid voice came from behind. Jane Eyre turned her eyes wide open and saw her hiding behind the door with a blushing face.

Standing behind Georgiana, Lilith made an apologetic gesture to Jane Eyre.

"Georgianna, it's okay, I didn't want to hide this matter from you, but I don't know much." Jane Eyre touched her head, "All we can do is calm down and wait for Mr. Darcy to tell you We have good news. Let's go, let's go to the living room, you read with Miss Bingley first, I still have some things to order."

Georgiana was very reluctant to be seen as a child, but she looked at Jane Eyre's uncompromising eyes, so she nodded obediently, and buried all her doubts and fears in her heart.

Seeing that Georgiana sat down on the sofa, Miss Bingley didn't understand what happened, but just sat in front of the piano and played as usual. Jane Eyre signaled Lilith to talk to her.

"Let the servants step up their precautions. Are there any loopholes in the garden that people of short stature can pass through? Let them patrol in shifts, and there should be no gaps in time."

Lilith nodded, and after Jane Eyre pondered for a moment, she ordered: "You send little Wayne to the Bennett's house to inquire about news—bring some fruits and desserts."

Lilith continued to silently agree.

Seeing her puzzled look, Jane Eyre persuaded her, "Are you worried about Wickham?"

Lilith shook her head first, and after seeing Jane Eyre's sincerely concerned eyes, she nodded: "Miss Eyre, if I say that I am still worried about Wickham's situation, you must also say that I am weak! "

Jane Eyre put her hands on her shoulders encouragingly.

"Wickham and I once had a deep relationship. Although I don't want to admit it, my love for him has never been fake. It's very satisfying for him to end up like this now, and I can't help but feel a little... But I know He clearly understands that he did it on his own.”

"I know, you're just having a hard time psychologically."

"I don't know who he offended, and let him completely destroy a man like this... But I think it's possible to offend someone without knowing it, as Wickham used to do. Maybe someone from the casino, maybe the husband of the cheater?"

"I think maybe not so, Lilith."

"Miss Jane, you know... what?"

Looking at her puzzled eyes, Jane Eyre shook her head after hesitating for a moment: "No, I'm just guessing boldly, maybe the 'Nightmare Banshee' is really taking revenge!"

Lilith tugged at the handkerchief, wondering what she was thinking.

"Don't think about it, Lilith. Go and do what I tell you!"

Lilith bowed and left, but Jane Eyre thought for a long time alone in front of the manor.She is [-]% to [-]% sure that what happened to Wickham was caused by Lydia. She is just a little girl, and no one will take precautions against her. Therefore, the gentlemen and the red uniforms are the object of investigation. They are also strong men or beautiful women - such wounds are undoubtedly love. Kill!

Because of this, Jane Eyre ordered Netherfield to strengthen its defenses. If Lydia could attack Wickham in this way, what about herself—an imaginary enemy?

Jane Eyre had to worry about this.

Soon it was night, and Jane Eyre strongly suppressed her inner anxiety, and arranged for Georgiana and Miss Bingley to finish their dinner. They also noticed the tension in the atmosphere and did not bicker like before. After dinner, they all went back to their rooms to rest early. .

"Boom—boom—" the twelve bells rang, and it seemed extremely bleak and frightening in this dark and quiet night.The gentlemen are not back yet.Jane Eyre sat alone on the steps at the gate of the manor, extremely anxious.For some reason, she felt that the ringing of the bell was particularly weird this time, and her heart was beating extremely fast!

"Miss Jane, go back to your room and rest! The dew is so heavy at night, don't catch a cold." Lilith put a thick blanket on her and persuaded her.

"Lilith, how I wish I were a man now, so I don't have to be forced to stay at home and wait for the news." Jane Eyre sighed deeply, and grabbed the blanket on her shoulders, "I don't know if Wickham has been rescued. , Are you awake?" Where is Mr. Darcy?Did he lead the gentlemen to the murderer?Was he injured?If Wickham woke up, would he pour dirty water on Mr Darcy?

Jane Eyre deeply felt that she was about to be split into two halves.Lilith shook her head. To be honest, her heart was not at peace.

Jane Eyre walked back and forth irritably, and finally made up her mind that she couldn't sit still: "Lilith, go find a cloak, and I'll go to Meryton to see what's going on!"

"Miss Jane! It's too late, maybe they are already on their way back!" Lilith was stunned by Jane Eyre's boldness.

"But I'm really worried." Jane Eyre turned around, picked up the candles in the wall lamp, and walked quickly through the corridor, planning to go back to the room and change into thick clothes—and bring thick clothes for the gentlemen, no matter what , If they come back late at night, they must be cold too.

Just as Jane Eyre ordered the servants to pack up, she heard Lilith's hurried footsteps downstairs.

"Are they back?" Jane Eyre shouted.

"No! No! Miss Elizabeth is here!" As soon as the voice finished speaking, two people's footsteps came from the corner of the stairs, and Elizabeth's face was soon revealed at the corner.

"Elizabeth? Why is your face so pale?" Jane Eyre was taken aback by her bloodless face, and the vitality and vigor that Elizabeth's eyes always had were overflowing with tears at this moment.

"Miss Eyre! I don't know who to turn to for help! Lydia, she—suddenly passed out at the stroke of zero! We thought at first that she was amusing herself again in 'Cinderella' In the end, no matter how we called her, she couldn't wake up!"

Elizabeth was going crazy. No one could have imagined that in just a few months, Lydia had so many crises one after another.Mrs. Bennet's fragile nerves were finally breaking this time, and even the smelling salts were of no use.

"Where's Mr. Bennet?"

"Father is going to town too, Miss Eyre, I know you are a person with ideas!" Elizabeth looked at Jane Eyre eagerly like a drowning person grabbing the only driftwood, "Please help!"

"Miss Elizabeth, it's too impolite of you to say that! The men of Netherfield Garden have gone to the town and haven't come back, what can Miss Ey do?" Lilith stood in front of Jane Eyre, very dissatisfied.

Jane Eyre held the candlestick in one hand, and leaned on the railing with the other, with an inexplicable expression.

Wayne quickly ran up and told her: "Miss Love, the carriage is ready, thick clothes, hot water and bread are also packed in the carriage, we are ready to go anytime!"

"Are you going to the town?" Elizabeth grabbed Jane Eyre's hand, and the candle in her hand kept shaking, "Can you take me there?"

"Miss Elizabeth, I also tried my luck in the past. I know you are anxious, but I don't know how to help you." Jane Eyre said directly to her, "You need a doctor, not me. Let's do it, I Tell the servant to go to the town to bring the doctor. You go back first, there are so many younger sisters in the family, you are a very smart person, and they may have gone crazy if they left you."

Elizabeth is obviously the support of the girls in the family. I really don't know if Miss Bennet can take good care of her sisters and take good care of her mother when she comes here late at night.

"Miss Love..." Elizabeth lowered her head, stammering.

Looking at her expression, Jane Eyre suddenly realized that maybe she didn't just come here to find a doctor for someone else!

"I see. You are here for Mr. Bingley?"

Elizabeth blushed suddenly and nodded.

No wonder she was impatient. What happened to Wickham was undoubtedly a great blow to Elizabeth. This not only refers to the pain in her heart, but also refers to the ruin of her reputation.

—Wickham fell into a feud, and Elizabeth's situation became especially embarrassing, and her reputation was linked with the reputation of all the Bennet daughters.Miss Bennet's affairs were not yet fully settled, and she feared that her own affair might spoil her sister's karma.

Jane Eyre handed the candle to Lilith, and took Elizabeth's hand with both hands: "You don't have to worry so much. From what I know about Mr. Bingley, he is not such an indiscriminate person. We all know Miss Bennet's character." It is clear to me, I think, that Mr. Bingley will not—”

"No! How could my brother marry a woman from such a family!" Miss Bingley secretly opened the door at some point and overheard their conversation. She was furious and yelled out.

Jane Eyre was about to refute, but Georgiana also ran out at some point: "Miss Bingley! How can you say such a thing! Wickham hurt Miss Elizabeth, and the Bennet family is the victim! Don't you think, My brother and I grew up with Wickham, is he like him?"

The situation was completely messed up. Miss Bingley had nothing to say when she was refuted by Georgiana. She was shocked by her slip of the tongue, but Georgiana actually called her "Miss Bingley" instead of Catherine!This made her back sweat.

"Ladies, we're wasting time! Miss Bingley, Georgiana, you all go to your rooms! I'll keep you up tomorrow and the matter will be cleared up! Miss Elizabeth, if you like, you can get into my carriage and come with me Town. 'Lila', you stay in Netherfield and take care of this manor!"

After finishing speaking, Jane Eyre took the candle in Lilith's hand, led Elizabeth hurriedly downstairs, and walked towards the door.

Elizabeth hurriedly followed with her skirt in hand. The bottom of her white long skirt was covered with mud stains, but she didn't care at all.

The two hurriedly climbed into the carriage, but before the carriage started, they heard Wayne's surprised voice: "Miss Love, they seem to be back!"

Jane Eyre poked her head out in the carriage, and sure enough, under the faint moonlight in the distance, the sound of several horses galloping towards Netherfield, Jane Eyre squinted her eyes, even if she was night blind, she could intuitively sense , the voice far ahead is Mr. Darcy!

Jane Eyre couldn't wait to get out of the carriage, picked up the thick blanket, and strode to the iron gate in the middle of the road at the entrance of the manor. Wayne opened the iron gate early, and when Jane Eyre ran there, Mr. Darcy also rode there !

"Mr. Darcy, you are finally back!" Jane Eyre couldn't restrain her violent heartbeat, and threw herself into his open arms.

Jane Eyre was breathing quickly, feeling the coldness of his waist under her hands, and hurriedly put a thick blanket on him. Mr. Darcy was also panting, but he didn't put the blanket on his shoulders, but wrapped him in two. the top of the person's head.

Jane Eyre raised her head in surprise, but what greeted her was an urgent and warm kiss.
