Pride and Prejudice of Jane Eyre

Her words made both of them stunned at the same time.

"Oh! Miss Love, you already have a fiancé? Congratulations." After being surprised, Miss Grandet warmly congratulated her.No matter how Jane Eyre looked at her, she felt that her eyes were a little weird, but it was not jealousy or disdain.

After Mr. Darcy was stunned, there was an unconcealable joy on his face.This is the first time Jane Eyre admits each other's identities in front of outsiders and in front of him.

Miss Grandet looked at the two snuggling in front of her. Mr. Darcy's body was slightly sideways to Jane Eyre. His broad shoulders enveloped the thin Jane Eyre in his arms. The candlelight behind him illuminated the world. The coming and going carriages stirred up flying dust, which was swirling in the candlelight.As a protector, Mr. Darcy used his shoulders to block the dust and smoke.

"Yes, meeting Mr. Darcy...is the luckiest thing in my life." Jane Eyre held his hand on her waist, and Miss Grandet stood there dumbfounded and at a loss.

Mr. Darcy glanced at Miss Grandet in front of him, exchanged glances with her, nodded slightly, and whispered to the person in his arms: "Honey, Georgiana must be waiting at home."

Miss Grandet heard what he was saying, curtseyed, and was about to take Nanon away.Jane Eyre saw that they were only two women, and it was really dangerous in this undercurrent of Paris, so she offered to send them a ride.

Mademoiselle Grandet was about to refuse, but Nanon nodded to her and thanked her repeatedly.

"You don't need to thank me, Miss Grandet. We are also going along the way." Jane Eyre smiled reassuringly, and helped Mr. Darcy's hand into the carriage together.Mademoiselle Grandet also got into her own carriage, and Nanon also acted as the coachman, and drove the carriage neatly.Li Wen also flicked his horsewhip and followed.

Looking at the back of the carriage in front of her, Jane Eyre relaxed her mind.Mr. Darcy sat beside her, and drew out a wooden box from under the seat, in which were refreshments and a pot of tea.He took out a small cake and handed it to Jane Eyre's lips. Jane Eyre wanted to reach out to take the cake, but he pinched her fingers.Jane Eyre had no choice but to eat a small cake with his hand.

"It's so sweet." Jane Eyre clicked her lips, and Mr. Darcy smiled as she looked at the white cream on the tip of her nose. Jane Eyre looked at him in confusion, but saw his face getting closer, warm Breath hit her nose, tickling.Jane Eyre wanted to raise her head and kiss him, but he kissed the tip of her nose first, and the wet/moist touch licked off the white cream spot.

"It's so sweet." Jane Eyre's face seemed to burn when she heard his deep voice whispering in her ear.Wiping her nose in shame and anger, she was pulled into his arms again, half lying on his neck.

"Take a break, your brows are wrinkled, and you look very tired." He turned his face and kissed her lightly on the forehead, "I'll talk about it later when I have something to say."

Only then did Jane Eyre feel that her back was stretched out for too long, her waist was tight, and her upper body was extremely sore.She wrapped her arms around his waist tightly, and closed her eyes firmly.Mr. Darcy knocked on the roof of the carriage, Li Wen received the news and slowed down the speed of the carriage.Mr. Darcy closed his eyes and fell asleep listening to her steady breathing.

When he opened his eyes again, the carriage had already stopped slowly at the door of the hotel.Jane Eyre loosened her joints in a daze, and Mr. Darcy let her go.Mr. Darcy's voice was a little hoarse, Jane Eyre let him stay in the carriage, jumped out of the carriage by herself, and said goodbye to Miss Grandet.

Mademoiselle Grandet asked her to keep her: "Would you like to come in for a cup of tea? I have brought a can of good tea. It is English black tea from Saumur's notary Mr. Crochet. You will like it." Nanon took a cold breath Looking at the young lady who suddenly became generous and generous, I don't understand how she treats this young lady like an old friend during such an afternoon tea time.

"Thank you, but no need. My fiancé is still waiting for me in the carriage." Jane Eyre held her hand, "My dear, if you have time tomorrow, you must come to our residence as a guest. Our chef is very skilled Great, I think you'll love English food too."

"Undoubtedly, it will." Mademoiselle Grandet smiled, "but tomorrow I have a meeting with the president of the bank. The relief of orphanages and monasteries requires a lot of gold."

"Didn't Miss Ann Sophie say..."

"The banks have stopped lending, yes, but I have quite a few francs, so that's no problem."

It was only then that Jane Eyre remembered that the person in front of her was the richest man in Saumur, and the richest woman in France.But she is humble and low-key, which makes people ignore her family wealth.

Jane Eyre didn't ask any further questions, and said goodbye after agreeing a date for the party with her.When they returned to the residence, Jane Eyre was so tired that she could hardly stand still. Mr. Darcy took her back to the room with half arms and half arms, and asked Lilith to take good care of her. He stopped at the door of Jane Eyre's room in a gentlemanly manner.

Early the next morning, before Jane Eyre opened her eyes, she was woken up by a loud knock on the door. She opened the door in a daze, only to find that Georgiana and Sarah were both wearing nightdresses. , rushed towards her excitedly.

"What's wrong?" Jane Eyre was startled awake.

"Mr. Barlow has come to visit! Mr. Darcy is receiving him in the living room!" Sarah's face was flushed, and she looked very nervous. 'So early? Jane felt strange in the bottom of her heart, she took out her pocket watch - the pointer had already pointed to ten o'clock in the morning.

'I've been asleep for so long? 'She found it unbelievable, it seems that the nervous tension the day before really exhausted her a lot of energy.

She turned to Sarah and said, "Mr. Barlow will definitely ask to see you. I'll let Lilith wash and change for you. Georgiana, you too." She rang the bell.

After Jane Eyre pushed the two girls back to the room, she went back to the room to freshen up briefly, changed into a loose and simple black dress, and went downstairs.

Mr. Darcy turned his head abruptly when he heard footsteps on the stairs, and Mr. Barlow stopped talking.After Jane Eyre and Mr. Darcy restrained and said good morning, they looked at Mr. Barlow.

It was a face of mixed race, with darker skin, and softer and flatter facial features than most Europeans.His figure is wide and fat, with a thick body, and he looks very reliable.He smiled amiably, and instead of Mr. Briggs' usual seriousness, there was a sly smile on his round face.

This is a businessman.

Jane Eyre defined him in her heart.Mr. Barlow introduced himself politely. He explained the major events he and Captain Clue had experienced together, and took out a token to win Jane Eyre's trust.Mr. Darcy told Jane Eyre in his spare time in the bathroom that he had sent someone to investigate Mr. Barlow's details, and this was indeed the person they wanted to find.

"You really reassure me, sir." Jane Eyre ticked his fingers.

"It is my honor to serve you, miss." Mr. Darcy kissed his hands in a manner of unfamiliarity.

When Mr. Barlow proposed to meet Miss Sarah, Jane Eyre politely agreed, and she rang the bell to signal Lilith to come down with the two ladies.Sarah's eyes lit up when she saw Mr. Barlow.She couldn't control the excitement in her heart, and threw herself into Mr. Barlow's arms.

"I regard little Sarah as my daughter." Mr. Barlow also wiped the corners of his eyes, "I was relieved when I saw her appearing safely in front of me. Sarah, you don't know, when I learned How flustered you were when you sneaked out of school! The little princess is lost, and her king will not let me go!"

Sarah bowed her head guiltily.Georgiana hugged her comfortingly, and looked at Mr. Barlow: "Mr. Barlow, will you take Sarah to India?"

"Yes, Miss Darcy." He bowed to Georgiana, and then looked at Mr. Darcy, "I really don't know how to thank you, Mr. Darcy! If something happens to Sarah..."

"You don't need to thank me, Mr. Barlow. It was my fiancée who insisted on helping Miss Kelu, but I want to remind you that when we met Miss Kelu, she was almost taken away by villains."

"There is such a thing!" Mr. Barlow's eyes widened, and he looked at Sarah in fear, only to see her nodding.

"Mr. Barlow." Jane Eyre frowned, and after a moment of hesitation, she still decided to remind him, "We know that Captain Kelu is engaged in the mining of diamond mines, which is a huge investment, and many people are watching his actions. !"

"You mean..." Want a piece of the pie?

"I mean, Miss Kelu is also the target of public criticism. If something happens to her, she is used to threaten Captain Kelu... the consequences are unimaginable." Sarah shuddered in fear, and Jane Eyre's hand comforted Putting it on her shoulders, "Investments are always profitable, but there is only one relative. Captain Kelu should also think about Miss Kelu, she loves her father deeply."

Jane Eyre vaguely remembers that in the original novel, Sarah was rescued from the poor attic by her father's friend and partner in the end, so does this mean that her father can also be fine?After all, fever is not an incurable disease.Perhaps the shock of bankruptcy is to blame!

Mr. Barlow nodded heavily in agreement.He proposed that he would take Sarah away in the next two days, and Georgiana was very reluctant to part with her, never expecting the parting to come so quickly.

"The situation in Paris is not good, we have to leave earlier." Mr. Barlow said in embarrassment, Jane Eyre frowned and nodded understandingly.However, Sarah still expressed that she would like to stay another night, say goodbye to Georgiana, and also need to pack her bags.Several adults agreed.

Not long after Mr. Barlow left, Mr. Baudouin called.Jane Eyre clutched her empty stomach, and there was a burst of mourning inside.

"Miss Love! Miss Love!" Mr. Baudouin waved the paper in his hand and strode into the living room, his face was full of fanatical smiles, "I took down an entire shelf of Central Bookstore! Your works It will be on the shelves in three days!"

Jane Eyre took the paper in his hand in surprise, it was a contract.

"Not only the central bookstore, but newsstands and book stalls will also have a batch! You can buy your works in countless streets and alleys in Paris!" Mr. Baudouin triumphantly took out a cigar and lit it.He easily blew out a smoke ring, "Miss Love, I've used all my connections, of course, it's totally worth it!"

"Such a big fight! If no one is willing to pay for it, then I will be ashamed of myself."

"What are you talking about! Miss Eyre!" Mr. Baudouin laughed, "You don't know, I have received a lot of gossip that the 'families' who participated in the salon yesterday have taken actions secretly. Those Man! He is always calm, arrogant and conceited, but..."

Old aristocrats, new aristocrats, capitalists and anyone with political sensibilities know what to do!

M. Baudouin got up and paced up and down the drawing-room, his hasty step betraying the restlessness and excitement in his heart.Mr. Darcy rang the bell and asked the servant to bring a bottle of red wine: "It's worth celebrating! My dear." He poured a glass of wine for Jane Eyre himself and clinked glasses with her.

Mr. Baudouin drank it happily, frowning and frowning, feeling the alcohol flow from his throat all the way to his stomach.The mind became as hot as the stomach.

"My factory is ready for the second batch of reprinting. Miss Ai, your name will float in the sky of Paris!" He put down his wine glass heavily, and the ambition and passion in his eyes were about to burst out.
