Pride and Prejudice of Jane Eyre

Early the next morning, Lilith greeted her old friend at the hotel gate.

While at Netherfield, Mr. Darcy wrote secretly to Mrs. Reynolds, of Pemberley, asking her to let the Levins go with them to London and accompany them on the journey.Li Wen and his wife used to be servants of Gateshead Mansion. After they came to Pemberley, they were completely accepted by Pemberley's servants within half a year because of their simplicity, ability and willingness to help others.Li Wen is not only a reliable groom, but also often runs errands for the master when he is in Gateshead Mansion, and his wife Bessie is an all-round maid who does a good job and is also refreshing.When Mr. Darcy was choosing his entourage, he immediately thought of the couple.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Wen and his wife accepted the appointment.They entrusted the child to Mrs. Reynolds for discipline, packed their luggage overnight, and headed for London.It's not that they don't care about the feelings of a few children, but they want to take this opportunity to really gain a foothold in Pemberley Manor.

It was still daylight when we arrived at the hotel where Mr. Darcy was staying.Li Wen and his wife took the public carriage, carrying a small box, and knocked on the side door of the hotel.

"It's finally here. If it's later, you may not be able to catch up." Lilith, wearing a thick coat, opened the door and welcomed them in.

Bessie exclaimed: "Lilith? Why are you here!" Isn't she already missing?Why is it by Mr. Darcy's side?

Lilith smiled slightly: "I am Miss Love's person now. Come in quickly, the masters will get up soon, and we don't have much time." Lilith didn't explain much, and arranged for them to have a hot meal in the lounge A simple breakfast, waiting to meet the hosts.Li Wen and his wife were at a loss.

Bessie covered the last bit of soup with bread and stuffed it into her mouth, when Georgiana's cheerful chatter and the crisp sound of leather shoes touching the floor came from the stairs.The two quickly swallowed their food, stood up in a hurry, straightened their clothes, and just wiped a little cream from the corners of their mouths, when they saw a familiar slender figure turn from the stairs.

"Miss Eyre!" cried Bessie again, and even her husband's eyes widened.Bessie stepped forward quickly, and Jane Eyre stretched out her hand, holding her in surprise: "Bessie! Why are you here?"

"I sent them here," explained Mr. Darcy, as he descended the stairs on the other side, "they know you very well, and I don't think they are more suitable to accompany us and take care of you." people."

Mr. Darcy kissed Jane Eyre face to face, and after saying good morning, his hand couldn't leave Jane Eyre's side.

Jane Eyre also intertwined with him, and said to the shocked Bessie: "I am so happy to see you, and I really want to thank Mr. Darcy for his kindness. Have you had breakfast?" She saw them Empty dinner plates on the table behind him.

"Yes, Miss Eyre." Bessie nodded, and then she couldn't help asking, "Haven't you already gone to Madeira Islands?" Why are you still in England?Even... looks close to Mr. Darcy.She couldn't help being a little worried about Jane Eyre's reputation—she was afraid that Jane Eyre would slip up and become the mistress of the master.

"Yes, I went to Madeira and found my uncle. He came to England with us, and now lives at a manor in Hertfordshire."

"That's wonderful! Is Mr. Eyre all right?"

"It's not bad. It's just that it was very tiring to travel to France, so he stayed here. By the way, I would like to thank you again for taking John's letter to Thornfield last winter and bringing it to me, otherwise... ..."

"Miss Love, this is our duty."

"Not everyone can abide by their duties. Thank you again." The former owner is dead, and they can ignore Mrs. Reed's last entrustment. If that happens, Jane Eyre will no longer be able to contact John, and he may Will also be killed early by the traitors of Madeira.

"Okay, Janet, what do you have to say after breakfast." Mr. Darcy put his arms around her, nodded slightly to the Levins, and walked past them with Jane Eyre. breakfast.

Li Wen and his wife looked at each other in blank dismay.Lilith smiled slightly, and only said softly: "You will understand soon."

Every day, when the sun rises above the sea level, turning the deep blue water into brilliant gold and orange, the port begins to be crowded and busy all day.Just like when I went to Madeira half a year ago, the port was full of people.Vendors yelled loudly, peddling bread for hunger and simple and rough souvenirs; by the port, carriages stopped one after another, and some of the guests who jumped out were dressed in rags, but their eyes were shining with longing. Reluctant to part with their relatives, they leaned together and talked; well-dressed gentlemen and ladies stepped out of the private carriage, frowning and covering their mouths and noses pretending to be inadvertent.

The taste of the port is really not very good.The smell of fish is mixed with sweat, and it is mixed and fermented in the salty sea breeze.

Jane Eyre has adapted well. On the Madeira Islands, the busy and lively ports are no cleaner than the ones here.But it was the first time for Georgiana to come to such a place. When she got off the carriage, before she had time to marvel at the liveliness and magnificence of this place, she was rushed to her nose by a strong and complex sour smell.

Jane Eyre handed her a scented handkerchief, and Georgiana couldn't wait to cover her nose.Mr. Darcy also frowned, not because of the smell, but because he couldn't bear the crowd.

"God! Wouldn't it be the same smell on the boat?" Georgiana muttered.

The servants unloaded the belongings of the masters from the carriage and cleared the way among the crowd.Jane Eyre took Georgiana to the shore, and Mr. Darcy was by their side.Even so, the two women were almost knocked over by the reckless pedestrians.

"Ah—" Georgiana couldn't help shouting, a gray-black figure collided between Jane Eyre and Georgiana, Georgiana's feet were suddenly stepped on by the hard soles, and she gasped in pain.

Jane Eyre was knocked down on Mr. Darcy, and as soon as she stood still, she quickly caught the thin figure, and was about to yell loudly, when the man raised his head, revealing a pair of beautiful sapphire blue eyes, Under the black hat, the roots of golden-brown hair were not completely covered, glistening in the sun.

"Help! Someone is going to kidnap me!" The man whispered, and hid in front of Jane Eyre with a short body, looking at the situation behind Jane Eyre through her side in a panic.Mr. Darcy was so angry that he was about to stretch out his hand to shake him off, but he heard Georgiana's surprised cry: "Sarah? Is it you?"

The man turned his head and met Georgiana's eyes, and both of them froze.

Jane Eyre looked at them in amazement, and before she could speak, she heard eerie conversations behind her.

"Let her run away! So many people can't look down on a little girl! Waste! Do you know how much I lost?"

"Sir! This is just a little girl, run away as soon as she runs away, let's find a more beautiful one..."

"You also know that this is just a little girl?" The man's voice was hoarse and fierce, "Her father is Kelu! You think I'm going to sell her to an underground prostitute? Captain Kelu refuses to hand over the diamond mine Now Miss Kelu has also escaped, what do you want the master to take... trash!" He kicked his men viciously, and let them scatter around with a low growl, he must catch the target.

After Jane Eyre and Mr. Darcy looked at each other, they leaned close together tacitly, blocking the figure in front of them.Georgiana protected her behind her. The servants didn't know what happened, but seeing the masters trapped in the sea of ​​people, they all crowded over and surrounded her.

Lilith quickly took off her coat and surrounded Sarah Kelu.

At this time, a huge ship roared, and the long escalator was lowered.Li Wen took several first-class tickets and a stack of third-class tickets prepared for the servants from Mr. Darcy's hands, passed through the crowd deftly, and handed them over to the sailor who checked the tickets.The crowd soon became the first people to board the boat.

Sarah Kelu was extremely flustered, but she had no time to say anything, so she had to follow the most familiar Georgiana.Jane Eyre and Mrs. Darcy followed behind them, and the servants protected the masters in the middle, and the group boarded the ship smoothly.

Sarah Kelu couldn't help but turn her head back, and saw the person who almost kidnapped her in the crowd angrily disrupted the entire port like a headless chicken, Yiyi bid farewell to the crowd being knocked down from time to time, and there were waves of curses sounds and exclamations.

"Sarah, what happened? Those people...?" Empress Georgiana was terrified and grabbed her hand tightly.

Sarah pursed her lips, holding back her tears, and shook her head.Jane Eyre thoughtfully stopped asking, and said to Georgiana: "Are you living with your classmate? Ask the maid to wash her up. Miss Sarah must be frightened." Then, she looked at the girl in Lily The girl in the silk coat has a straight waist and bright eyes. Even if she wears a broken black hat and her hair is hidden under the hat, her temperament cannot be compromised.

"Miss Sarah, this ship will sail to Marseilles, France, and then we will take a carriage to Paris, would you like to come with us?" Jane Eyre asked considerately, even though she knew that Sarah Kelu had no better chosen.

Sure enough, after a moment of hesitation, she nodded, "Thank you! Mrs. Darcy! You are so kind, I don't know how to repay you!"

Jane Eyre shook her hand in embarrassment: "I'm not Mrs. Darcy... My name is Jane Eyre, just call me Miss Eyre." What was said in the ear.Seeing that Jane Eyre's ears became bloodshot instantly, she scratched her ears.

"Miss Sarah, you can stay here with peace of mind. You are Georgiana's friend, and we will definitely not abandon you."

Sarah looked at the two intimate people in front of her suspiciously, and Georgiana held her hand, and could only say, "Yes, Miss Love."

Georgiana snickered, pulled her friend along with the maid on the boat, and ran to the private room.

After Jane Eyre returned to the room, she packed her luggage by herself, smelled her body, and found that she still had the complex smell of the port, so she changed into a long skirt, put on a coat, and walked out of the room.

Mr. Darcy was already waiting at the door, and he stretched out his hand: "Miss Eyre, can you show me your favor and go for a walk on the deck together?" Jane Eyre couldn't help laughing, and hand in hand with him, they walked through the long aisle together, on deck.

The deck was empty and quiet, they were the first guests.Jane Eyre leaned against the fence, looked at the busy scene on the shore, couldn't help but sighed a long time, and sighed: "Time flies so fast. When I left England last time, I was alone." But now, her Not only is her future standing beside her, but there are also the concerns of her relatives behind her.

Mr. Darcy stood behind her, wrapped his hands around her waist, put his chin on her shoulder, and whispered in her ear: "Last time, I was there to watch you leave." His hand wrapped around hers, lifted it up, and pointed to a spot on the shore.

Jane Eyre turned her face sideways, and his eyes turned to the shore far away, and his eyelashes trembled slightly in the sea breeze.She raised her feet and touched his cheek lightly with her lips: "I see you, Mr. Darcy."

At the time, she thought she was wrong.

Mr. Darcy also bowed his head and turned his face, his lips deftly caught the tenderness that wanted to shrink back.

The author has something to say: I wanted to go home the first day I returned to Germany. After two days of running around on the road, my hands were dry and cracked. Now I can only self-isolate for 14 days and dare not run around.Two days ago, I watched the hot search, and I changed to a new detection method, and there were more than 1 confirmed cases.
