[Pride and Prejudice] The right match

Darcy's frown that had been tightly locked did not show any signs of relaxation. He did not think that a person would be hostile to another stranger for no reason. Although women are more emotional and irrational than men, but This does not mean that women are all fools without brains.

However, Mr. Darcy took a few glances at Wickham and had to admit that Wickham's impression was really tempered by the hard military life and changed his appearance.Mr. Darcy felt that something was wrong, but he could not tell what was wrong.He didn't believe that people like Wickham would really change for the better, but Wickham's expression and tone made him a little shaken.Thinking of old Mr. Darcy's will, Mr. Darcy hesitated.

But, even if Wickham had improved, Mr. Darcy would not allow him to appear near himself and Georgiana.Although such a decision seems too arbitrary and unreasonable, for Mr. Darcy, Georgiana's reputation is the most important thing.

Mr. Darcy stared at Wickham, a character who grew up with him but seemed to be a deadly enemy. Mr. Darcy was skeptical about his repentance, but he couldn't stop Mr. Darcy from making the decision to expel Wickham.

Stared at by Mr. Darcy, Wickham almost broke out in a cold sweat.He didn't want to lose everything he had in the migrant workers' group. This was something he had worked so hard for. His good looks and popularity made him a successful military officer. The husband of the dowry lady, he will become a master, and he will get everything that he has not had since birth, wealth, money, rights, everything will be there.He likes the life in the army, the life here is full of fine wine and beauties, this is his own life.

Wickham swallowed hard, and wanted to do something to bring Mr. Darcy back. He knew Mr. Darcy very well. If Mr. Darcy wanted to let him go, then it would not be such a silent scene. He would turn away without saying a word, with contempt and ignorance of himself, instead of staring at himself tightly as he did now, keeping his face calm.

In the end, Mr. Darcy showed a trace of regret on his face. He had overcome his inner apology to the old Mr. Darcy, and wanted to expel Wickham. The living are always more important than the dead.Although old Mr. Darcy is Mr. Darcy's father, it is Georgiana who depends on him for life.

Wickham saw, too, that the decision Mr. Darcy was about to make could never be a good one.This decision is definitely bad news for him, and he can't let Mr. Darcy say it.

Wickham hated Mr. Darcy very much. He looked at Mr. Darcy with resentment in his heart.Obviously, they all grew up together, and even the old Mr. Darcy liked himself a little bit more. Everyone who saw him would fall in love with him because of his handsome face and decent behavior, but when he met Darcy, he was short of everything. his head.So what if there is no old Mr. Darcy's favor, he is always the heir of old Darcy, inherited the property of Darcy's family, and has a huge wealth. With this, he can be flattered in the upper class, And myself, in the eyes of those people, is just a housekeeper's son.

How unfair fate is, if I am Mr. Darcy, then I don't have to run around for money and future, if I have such a large fortune, then I don't have to work so hard to calculate the woman's dowry.If I were Mr. Darcy, I would definitely be more popular than him, instead of keeping a straight face and being lifeless all day long.Women will fall in love with themselves, and they can spend money like water, becoming the darling of high-class ladies.hateful!

Wickham is unwilling to succumb to Mr. Darcy, but when necessary, he will give up his self-esteem and become a natural liar. Wickham is actually just a hooligan at heart. When he wants to gain some benefits, no matter what the means are, he will not be stingy in giving.At this time, the best amulet he could think of was old Mr. Darcy: "Mr. Darcy, for the sake of you and I growing up together, for the sake of old Mr. You haven't seen me. I won't disturb you and Georgiana. I like and am very satisfied with the life in the army. I hope you can trust me. I will never destroy your and my respective lives. .”

Mr. Darcy glanced at Wickham, the silence broke up a little bit, and finally he sighed softly: "Wickham, I don't believe you."

Yes, no matter how sincere Wickham was, Mr. Darcy still didn't believe him.No one knew what Wickham was like better than Mr. Darcy. He was good at acting, deceiving the world, and now, he was more sophisticated in deception, and he was almost able to deceive himself.Mr. Darcy could not believe that a charlatan could become a serious soldier in the space of a year. It was impossible.

Wickham's cold sweat was about to fall, he had no bargaining chips, even the old Mr. Darcy couldn't make Mr. Darcy change his mind and let him go. Could it be that he could only use Georgiana's matter as a threat?Wickham shuddered at the thought of Mrs Younge.

Wickham looked at Mr. Darcy fixedly, he felt that the situation was terrible, and it couldn't get any worse.But the facts tell him that things can go on and on.

The creditors who owed their gambling money arrived at the military camp.And those creditors were accompanied by a letter of resignation from Miss Jin, a wealthy lady.

It was also Wickham himself who was unlucky. The gambling money he owed was not a large amount. As long as Miss Jin married him, everything would be solved.It's a pity that Miss Jin found out about her gambling debts first.

When he saw the creditors arriving at his tent, he knew it was all over.These creditors were neatly dressed and seemed to be decent people. The management of the camp was not very strict, and they found themselves easily.

Wickham was desperate. He thought that Mr. Darcy would know that he was still deceiving him, that he was still a gambler, and that Miss Elizabeth was disgusted with him because of his malicious guidance. He knew that Darcy I won't let myself go.

Wickham panicked and said to the creditors: "Wait! I have money, I have money!"

Then, he looked at Darcy and said viciously: "Mr. Darcy, ha, you must be very happy now. Well, it's death anyway, so, I want to choose the way I like. Mr. Darcy , I want a sum of money, five thousand, no! Ten thousand pounds! It's enough to pay off my debts and make me live well. As long as you give me the money, I promise, I promise, I won't take that Tell me about it. You know, if I fall into their hands, I will find someone to back me up, I have never been a good person!"

Those creditors don't care who pays back the money. For them, getting the money is the most important thing.Moreover, this unlucky handsome man seems to have something to do with a nobleman. They can punish a commoner, but they are not willing to offend a nobleman.

Mr. Darcy thought of Louisa, of her anger and of Georgiana's ignorant grief after he had spared Wickham for the first time, and he knew that he could no longer compromise.He had made up his mind before that he would only back down for the last time for his father's will, but this time, he would never back down again.Father wanted to protect Wickham, and he himself had someone he wanted to protect.

Mr. Darcy glanced at the eagerly watching creditors, and knew that they would never miss a scandal about a gentleman.Wickham, on the other hand, saw his protection for Georgiana and wanted to threaten him with this.

Mr. Darcy glanced at Wickham, who had an obvious threat and a faint satisfaction on Wickham's face.Mr. Darcy sighed, and asked the men, "What will you do to Wickham if he doesn't pay him?"

Those people thought that Mr. Darcy wanted to help Wickham pay back the money, and the way he looked at Wickham immediately changed.The well-dressed gentleman was obviously someone of status, and they wouldn't want to offend someone with a background.Therefore, the leader of them stood up and replied very respectfully: "Oh, dear sir. Although I want to tell you that we will not do anything to this gentleman, it is obviously not a realistic thing. You You know, since we dare to open a casino, we have the capital to recover the cost. I don't think you will want to know what we people will do. Those things are not suitable for upper-class people like you. Of course, if you want If you want to help this bastard Wickham... if this gentleman pays back the money, we will never let your friend suffer any damage."

Wickham's eyes lit up, and he almost believed his speculation—Mr. Darcy compromised again, and he would get a lot of property, get rid of those damn debts, run away, and he would Have a free and rich life.He almost laughed out loud.

However, Mr. Darcy's words made his laughter choke in his throat.

"Well, if I give you double the money, five hundred pounds? One thousand pounds? Can you promise to shut him up so that I never see him. By the way, my name is Darcy, and you You won't deceive a Mr. Darcy." Mr. Darcy looked at the leader, but what he said made Wickham tremble.He wanted to roar, but he could only make a "cluck" sound from his throat in fear.

Those creditors obviously know what the surname Darcy represents, and they know even more that there are some things that don't need to be so clear.Those who can hang out in the casino, of course, are not stupid. They have seen a lot of the filth of those high-class people, and they have helped those people deal with some people they don't want to see. This kind of business , they are very skilled.If you can make money, what can't you do?
