[Pride and Prejudice] Second Marriage

Marriage is the top priority in a lifetime for both men and women, and preparations for the wedding have been the most important task of everyone in Bradley for more than half a year.

It was the first Sunday after Easter, and the big day was coming tomorrow.In the evening, Bradley had a dinner party, and all the people who were closely related to him were invited,

Mrs. Catherine also came, and she brought a young and beautiful lady, Miss Metcal. She originally wanted this delicate guest to be Juliet's bridesmaid, but unfortunately the position had already been chosen, and she was Juliet's one. A distant cousin and her good sisters, who moved to Bradley six months ago, cultivated a relationship with the bride-to-be.

However, Miss Metcal didn't mind this at all. Her original purpose was to get to know more people and see if she could find a future husband-in-law she liked.Compared with the dusty groom-to-be who arrived on the same day as them, the older brother of the bride-to-be, who was obviously handsome and had blond hair, moved her more.

Julian didn't know that there was a girl in the hall who was moved because of him. He complained to Juliet a little irritably, thinking that the wedding date was set too early, Juliet was too young, she was not yet 21 years old!

"Please consider the age of the groom, Mr. Stoke," Mrs. Griffey sat beside Juliet, and replied rather dissatisfied. "Although he is still young and promising, there are many people of his age. The young man already has his heir..."

Julian jumped up immediately, "Is this the reason why Juliet must get married so early?" He turned to Juliet who had been smiling and said nothing, "Dear Julie, don't show your bride's shyness in advance, you have to think carefully, age What misfortune disparity can bring to a marriage!"

Someone behind him interrupted him with a cough. "I'm sorry that my age has given you such a bad opinion, Mr. Stock, but it's too late for you to say these words." Darcy changed A clean dress, when he had just found out where his fiancée was, he heard Julian's opinion.

"Julian, I hear your complaints almost every day. By today, you should know that you haven't convinced me at all," Juliet stood up with a smile, walked forward and took Darcy's arm, for her future husband Brace yourself, "You're exaggerating, Julian, Mr. Darcy is just the right age." She added something that made the bridegroom-to-be a little embarrassed—for his body had stiffened, she said. ,"I am very satisfied."

Julian looked at his sister with slumped shoulders, very discouraged, and Mrs. Griffey smiled triumphantly.

Seeing this, Juliet let go of Darcy's hand, and went to pull Julian with a smile, trying to say some flattering words to make him smile.He grabbed Juliet's shoulders and whispered something in her ear, and then Juliet smiled back at them apologetically.

Mrs. Griffey smiled and watched them go to another place before she said to Darcy, "Come and sit down for a while, dear brother, don't feel disappointed because your fiancée abandons you, the time Juliet spends with you in the future will definitely be better Much more Mr Tork, and you used to have the same distaste for Nick—even though he was the one you nodded your head to."

"I still don't like him now." Darcy said simply.

Hearing his serious words, Mrs. Griffey smiled, "Don't be like that, brother, Nick adores you." She sighed somewhat wistfully, "I'm not as easy to deceive as I used to be. No matter you What is the reason for the marriage with Juliet—I'm not sure if it's really out of love, but I still sincerely hope that you can live happily." She turned her head and took Darcy's hand, "Honestly Well, the fact that Juliet is going to be my sister-in-law may affect my friendship with her, because I always stand by your side unconditionally, I really hope that nothing will happen to you to embarrass me."

Darcy smiled, "That's not a good pre-wedding wish, Georgiana."

Mrs. Griffey laughed.

The next day's weather was fine, and when the carriage carrying the bride arrived at the door of the church amidst the cheers of the crowd, Darcy felt his heart beating heavily. He was no stranger to him at all, but he still felt an indescribable tension. His eyes swept over Georgiana sitting in the front seat. She obviously still shed tears of excitement for her brother like the first time, but with Compared with before, she found a Mr. Griffey who could comfort her and make her rely on.Mrs. Amber sat on the opposite seat, and she was unusually dressed in a rather high-profile fuchsia satin gown, and Darcy could see the joy in her gray eyes.

The door was opened slowly, and the bride with a white veil walked slowly towards Darcy on the altar, holding Earl Wendell's hand.

Her dress was as beautiful as a cloud, Darcy thought nervously, she seemed to have mentioned its style in some letter, but he could not imagine what it looked like just by her invisible metaphors.The bouquet in her hand is of course roses, and Bradley will never lack roses throughout the year.And the sparkling sapphire pins in her blond hair, which, yes, she had mentioned in her letters, belonged to her mother.

Before he could get enough of his wild thoughts, Earl Wendell had already stared at him with his blue eyes, and he said in a low voice, "I'm putting the treasure in my hands into your hands, young man."

Darcy could not help thinking of what he had said to himself that night when he was asking the wise old man's permission, "We are all wise men, and I am sure you will not fail to see that Juliet has nothing for you." Love between men and women, but you are still standing here. I don't expect you to be out of crazy love for Juliet, but I also know that you are definitely not because of her [-] pounds of dowry. I don't understand the reason, but I have to As a side note, Juliet may have a hard time trusting someone, but if you gain her trust, she will definitely repay you with the greatest sincerity. And she may not even notice this - she trusts you far more than you To be expected. Obviously this surprised me, and even puzzled me, why you. Whatever your circumstances may be, Mr. Darcy, I personally do not like you as Juliet's husband--reasons, We know it. But men understand men. Marriage grows. Mr. Darcy, a failure can teach you a lot. Staying on your toes and staying at arm's length is far from the right thing to do after a self-knowledge. Avoiding is not a The behavior of a man. Tolerate her with the charm of a mature man, maybe you will receive unexpected surprises. I agree, sir, because of Juliet's unshakable trust in you, I tell you with the pride and pride of a father , you will marry the whole of England, no, the most beautiful girl in the whole world to be your wife, don't suppress your enthusiasm, go and kiss her!"

At this moment, Darcy extended his arm to the most beautiful girl in the world, and an arm with a white glove lightly wrapped around his arm—this arm weighed more than a thousand gold in his heart. Juliet's clear blue eyes under the veil flashed dimly in front of his eyes, and he clearly knew that there was a burst of joy in his heart.

The priest's questioning was over, and no objection to the marriage was raised, and he loudly announced that Fitzwilliam Darcy and Miss Juliet Stoke were married.

Everyone stood up to bless them. They walked down from the altar, walked through the long and wide aisle, passed through the blessing eyes of everyone, passed through the high arches, and boarded a car decorated with flowers and white gauze. In the carriage, they will follow the oldest rituals to spend the sweet time exclusively for newlyweds.

The newlywed's carriage stopped at a hotel that had already been booked. Darcy helped Juliet get out of the carriage. After the two changed into clothes that were convenient for traveling, they got into the carriage again and officially started their journey.

Juliet's preferred travel destination is Scotland.Although Darcy has been there many times, out of respect for his new wife's opinion, he has no opinion.

"Happy wedding, Mr. Darcy," said Juliet, looking at him.

"Bless you too, Mrs. Darcy." Darcy smiled slightly.

Over the past six months, the couple has tried their best to let each other know about themselves. They don't meet often, but the frequency of correspondence is very high. Every letter explains every trivial thing they do.Let the other party understand their own living habits.This may be a stupid method, but I have to say that it may work for them.

They chatted easily and naturally along the way, completely like friends who have known each other for many years.Darcy's experience of traveling in Scotland in the early years is a topic that Juliet has been eagerly asking.

Juliet's impression of Scotland comes entirely from a movie in her previous life. Time may have blurred the plot, but it can't blur the shock at that time, as well as the melodious bagpipe music that always lingers in her ears.

However, she found that before she saw the vision of Scotland with her own eyes, there was another important thing lying in front of her eyes.That night, they stayed at a hotel in Alton Township.

After taking a shower, Juliet had no time to appreciate the Louis XV-style room interiors. Unlike the last time the two went to Rosings together, they lived in a bridal suite this time.

Juliet sat on the edge of the soft bed, thought for a while, then lifted her own half of the quilt and got in.

When Darcy came out of the bathroom wiping her hair, she saw a figure protruding from the big bed in the middle of the room. Although Juliet was sleeping on the right side in an orderly manner, she ignored her long hair. Winding to the center of the bed, the quilt and pillow were soaked in a large area.

Darcy walked to the side of the bed and leaned over to look at her. He found his new wife pretending to be asleep with her eyes closed, maybe because she was afraid that she would find out, or perhaps because she was aware of her approach, and her breathing was barely smellable. No ups and downs - visibly holding breath.Darcy reached out and picked a strand of her wet hair and stuck it to her cheek, "Juliet, if you don't get up and ask the maid to make the bed again, my dear, none of us may sleep well tonight."

Unexpectedly, Juliet would expose him directly, sat up a little annoyed, touched her cheek, and looked at him, "I want to drink."

Darcy smiled at this, and when she saw her get down from the bed, he handed her one coat and rang the bell.

After a while, the hotel's efficient maids had already made up the newly changed beds, and the wine Juliet wanted had been placed on the small round table beside the bed.

"I want brandy, not ale." When Juliet came out of the bathroom again, she looked at the wine glass on the round table and said to Darcy.

Darcy was sitting on the bed reading a book, when she heard her protest, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows, and looked at her disapprovingly, "I don't think it's a good choice for you to drink brandy before going to bed today, and I don't want to drink brandy on the first day of the wedding. Learned that my wife turned out to be an alcoholic."

Juliet stood there with some hesitation, watching him hesitate to speak—it was very strange, it was the first time Darcy saw her showing such a side, and in the past six months, the impression in his mind had gradually tended to be a qualified lady, Occasionally naughty, but she herself is generous, or Juliet dressed in this way is also novel to him. She just tried to dry her hair half-dried in the bathroom, and the hair was so rough that it was piled on her shoulders. It was a long milky white nightgown with two bare feet underneath.

Everything is frank like a child.

Darcy smiled slightly, patted the pillow on his right and said, "If you don't want to drink it, come to sleep!" As soon as he finished speaking, he was surprised to see Juliet suddenly picked up the wine glass and drank it down.

She blushed, and jumped onto the bed in one go, but who knew, the bed was too soft, and she threw herself on the pillow.

Darcy watched her series of actions in astonishment, leaned over, stretched out his hand to hold her shoulder to help her up from the pillow, and asked teasingly, "Mrs. Darcy, can I ask you this question?" What are you doing?"

Juliet grabbed the corner of the pillow tightly, and her voice seemed to be about to cry, "You made a mistake in not letting me drink brandy, Darcy, I can't muster up enough courage to fulfill my duties as a wife."

After Juliet finished speaking, the room was immediately very quiet, but the silence only lasted for about a second or two, and Darcy burst into a burst of joyful laughter.

He put the book in his hand back on the bedside cabinet, watched Juliet still buried in the pillow calmly, frowned, and tried hard to make his voice not sound like it would annoy a person who was already extremely shy, otherwise The first night of his newlyweds might really be ruined, he said, "Mrs. Darcy, in view of an event that I deeply regret in the past, I don't think you need to perform your duties as a wife tonight. , to fulfill her duties as a husband.”

The author has something to say: ***

Thank you angsat girl for mine!The title is too *, I completely limp on the ground, haha!

Zhu's father's words were actually a big change for Darcy. It knocked him on the head and gave him some confidence: My daughter trusts you!What is the basis of long-term relationship?It is trust!

Half a year from the engagement to the wedding was left for Darcy to have a deep self-knowledge.In fact, I suddenly feel that these are also two mensao.If she is strong, he will be weak, and if she is weak, he will be strong.It seemed that Juliet had the upper hand before, but on the wedding night, she was weak.
