[Pride and Prejudice] Squire and Noble

Bingley stopped talking and couldn't wait to lead Jane to dance together.

Mr. Hurst and Mrs. Hurst also stepped onto the dance floor at the same time. Mrs. Bennett looked at Mr. Darcy and wanted to introduce her second daughter, but she couldn't speak.Miss Bingley looked at Darcy, looking forward to his invitation. She thought confidently that Darcy, who never liked to dance with strange girls, would definitely choose to invite himself when the first tune sounded!

Unfortunately, she guessed wrong again.

After a moment of silence, Darcy walked straight towards Miss Elizabeth Bennet.

The two looked at each other with a familiar smile, and walked into the middle of the dance floor in a tacit understanding.

Mrs. Bennet was very happy. Although he thought this Mr. Darcy was really unreasonable, it was not more sensible that such an unreasonable, indifferent and arrogant gentleman invited her second daughter to the first dance. Has it given her countless places to be proud of?She walked over complacently and chatted with Mrs. Lucas, praising her daughters.

The band specially invited from London played cheerful country music, combining elegance and casualness so freely, the older generation of gentlemen hid indoors to play cards, and the young people completely occupied the dance floor.

The Bennett family seldom went to the Meryton ball for a long time. This appearance, the beautiful four sisters stood there like four beautiful flowers, which attracted everyone's attention.They are slim and tall, with charming and elegant smiles, each has its own characteristics, with the elegance of a noble lady, it is simply dazzling!

Immediately after that, two lovely officers came over and invited Kitty and Mary to the dance floor.

Although Mary's appearance is not outstanding, her temperament in recent years has become more and more bookish. Without the arrogance of a talented woman, she has become like a poetic and elegant lady, with a restrained temperament, coupled with her clothing. It fits her temperament so well that it looks like a lily.

It was the first time for Kitty to participate in a ball, and the first time to get so close to a man. She was a little shy, but she was so looking forward to it.

At the same time, she also deeply remembered the words taught by Isa.

After a moment of uncontrollable excitement, she quickly suppressed her trembling and excited heart, and danced peacefully and reservedly.Her dancing is not particularly proficient, and she often looks a little green, so she always has a shy smile on her cheek.

She didn't realize that it was a great relief to the husband with whom she danced.

At the ball, Mary did not expect to receive such a compliment.

The officer in front of him was so handsome, he looked at him with a special kind of favor.

Oh, it must be due to the magic sister Isha cast on them, right?Mary's heart was full of satisfaction and gratitude. She thought that she would be neglected endlessly because of her appearance at the ball, but she found that this was not the case. She also became a girl with personal charm.

This ball is like a war card sent by the Bennett family to the entire Meryton and even Hertfordshire, expressing their strong ideas, indicating that even if they quit the social circle for such a long time, they will surely regain their glory come back!

And this is just a small foreshadowing!

This is a unique dance music in the country. Two rows of people stand on each side, and the dancers dance face to face. They meet in the middle, walk back and forth, circle around, and then separate.

When they met in the middle, Darcy suddenly took the initiative to ask, "Miss Elizabeth, do you like that bottle of wine?"

Isa nodded slightly after turning around, "I like it very much, it's a good bottle of wine." Then she had to admit with a smile, "However, I want to be honest, I still want that bottle of wine." Did not drink."

"Why?" Mr. Darcy's calm tone suddenly rose a little imperceptibly.

He immediately realized what was wrong with him, put on a straight face, and looked away...

"Because that bottle of wine is too expensive, Mr. Darcy." Isa blinked playfully, and joked, "For such a treasure, I would like to hide it more, look at it every day, or drink it more carefully. So maybe next time, Mr Darcy, you should send me a bottle of wine that I can drink as I please."

Well, she can always easily make the atmosphere warmer.

Thinking thus, Mr. Darcy recalled his opinion when he first saw her.That's right, this lady is very resourceful, has extremely high social skills, and also has a warm power that makes people want to get close.At that time, he felt that this was terrible. A lady should not be so scheming and tricky.

But now, he suddenly felt that this made her even more lovely.

"Okay, Miss Elizabeth." After a while, Darcy agreed seriously.

Isa smiled, and the smile on her lips deepened.

The atmosphere of the ball was simply wonderful, but many people soon discovered that this ball was very strange.That is, usually people who dance are always focused on dancing, and those who are chatting are always focused on chatting, but today, many people's eyes are all cast on the four girls who are dancing with the gentlemen on the dance floor.

Their dances are so elegant and moving, full of aristocratic elegance, yet not lacking in the simplicity and liveliness of the countryside. Every dance step has such a beautiful feeling, which makes people yearn for it, as if their eyes are dancing with them.

Oh, it turns out that they are the four ladies of the Bennet family who have not stepped into the social circle for a long time!

This knowledge immediately spread among the chatting wives, and regarding the poverty of the Bennett family, the meager and pitiful dowries of these ladies, and their pitiful life experiences, they were always able to add more ink, deeply It makes those ladies and gentlemen who don't know it understand clearly at once.

One after another, the regretful news reached the ears of the gentlemen who were about to move forward, which made them immediately think of retreating, but after several struggles, they all went forward to invite them one by one.

Their dancing posture is so moving that people want to dance with them no matter what.

Undoubtedly, after the whole dance, the three excellent girls, Jane, Mary and Kitty, had almost no time to rest. This made all the girls in Meryton envious and jealous, and they couldn't understand. How could the daughters of the poor and impoverished Bennett family have changed so much in such a short period of time.

After the first dance, Darcy and Isa stood aside.

Miss Bingley rejected a gentleman's invitation, and cast her eyes suggestively at Mr. Darcy, but Darcy turned around as if he didn't see it, took a glass of champagne and drank lightly, while talking to Miss Elizabeth. talking about something.Miss Bingley was no longer in the mood for dancing, and the boys and officers here were, in her opinion, extremely rude, not at all comparable to her brother's kind gentleman, and even less to Mr. Darcy's elegance and dignity.

But these two gentlemen whom she likes can't care about her at this time.

After talking for a while, Darcy left. After all, at a ball, a man and a woman talking too long will cause many pink speculations.This time, he stepped decisively and quickly into the lounge with a straight face. Along the way, he was extremely stern, exuding an aura of not disturbing strangers, so that no one dared to come forward to invite him to do something.

He was very satisfied with the situation where no one came to talk to him.

Seeing that Mr. Darcy finally separated from Miss Elizabeth, Miss Bingley hurried into the lounge as well, pretending to meet her by chance, she went to talk to Mr. Darcy, "Oh, Darcy, you just had a dance Stop dancing, are you dissatisfied with your partner? You know, Charles invited Miss Bennett to dance twice in a row!"

She shook her fan lightly, "No matter how much you dance with your favorite partner, you will never get bored."

Seeing Mr. Darcy standing there with a glass of wine, and making no rebuttal, Miss Bingley's heart brightened at once.

"Hey, Darcy, I guess you're thinking, this ball is going to be boring, and the ladies here can't keep up with you, and you want to get out of here soon, don't you? I'll tell you Same idea, I think the gentlemen here are all so smug, rude and ungentlemanly, if it wasn't for Charles, I wouldn't want to stay for a second. You don't know how much I wish I could hear from you Their criticism, that must comfort me."

"No, to be honest with you, you guessed everything wrong." Darcy's voice was calm and his tone was flat.

Miss Bingley's heart skipped a beat. "Then what are you thinking, Darcy?"

"I was thinking, how could a girl's dance steps bring me so much joy." Darcy was silent for a moment, and suddenly rubbed the cup lightly with his slender fingers with well-defined knuckles, as if there was a trace of nostalgia in his movements, Just like how Miss Elizabeth acted that day.

"Are you talking about Miss Elizabeth Bennet?!" Miss Bingley stared at him with a trembling voice, and almost cried out.

Mr. Darcy snapped his fingers lightly, "You guessed it right this time."

Miss Bingley was silent for a while, her chest heaved up and down, and it took a long time before she forced a smile and said, "Darcy, how soon can I congratulate you, you seem to have known each other for a long time? Well, then you will have an interesting She will certainly add to the fun of Pemberley, my lord, and I can see that this Mrs Bennet is not as reserved as she appears to be. Oh, how hard these country ladies try to please I really admire your kindness!"

She satirized and hinted at each other, but seeing Darcy's face was flat and did not respond, so she talked more and more, and even began to analyze their "beautiful" married life.

When Darcy finally jumped out of his thoughts, he found that Miss Bingley was still talking, he was a little impatient, and when she finally had a break, he asked sternly, "Do you really want to know what I mean?" How long have you known her?"

"certainly……"

Miss Bingley replied with a little hesitation, but she couldn't stop her strong curiosity...
