[Pride and Prejudice] Squire and Noble

However, the servants of Bingley's family were too lazy. Bingley was not a person who knew how to manage things. He had a gentle personality and didn't know how to reward and punish properly. As time passed, these servants naturally didn't take it seriously.Darcy shook his head, if it was Darcy's well-trained guards and servants, this would never happen.

Mr. Lane quickly prescribed medicine for Jane, and the later doctor stood aside with an embarrassed expression, feeling that there was no room for him here.

Miss Bingley felt her face burn under Mr. Darcy's cold eyes, and she could hardly imagine the contempt with which Miss Elizabeth looked upon them when she stopped.

Wandering outside the room, Miss Bingley showed dissatisfaction on her face, "God, what kind of relationship do we have with the Bennetts? Miss Bennetts come here one after another. I sincerely hope that there will be no more troubles." There are three!"

Mrs. Hurst agreed deeply, "I have never seen such rambunctious young ladies. They don't understand the importance of etiquette at all!"

Darcy had just walked out of the room, and when he heard this, his expression was indifferent, "I don't think so." He walked downstairs lightly, and went to get a blanket, "If Miss Bennet didn't understand etiquette, she wouldn't be here today , Her good intentions are distorted by you, I will definitely feel very sorry."

After speaking, he took the blanket and walked slowly into Jane's room.

At this time, Mr. Lane had already prescribed medicine for Jane to take. She was covered with a thick quilt and fell asleep again.It can be seen that Mr. Lane's medical skills are very good, at least much better than other doctors in Meryton.Darcy walked over and put the blanket on Isa thoughtfully.

Warmth filled the air, and Isa, who was a little tired, turned her head, nodded slightly, and thanked her in a low voice.

The effect of the medicine took effect very quickly. Although Jane was still asleep, the heat on her face dissipated a lot. Isa took care of her almost meticulously, wiping the sweat from her forehead, tucking the quilt for her, and changing her face. Cool towels.The night passed quickly, Isa did not leave anything to others, and she almost stayed up all night.

And the same is true of Mr. Bingley outside, his poor Jane is in pain, and he can't sleep peacefully anyway.

Sitting in his room, Mr. Darcy always thought of Miss Elizabeth's helplessness at that moment, and his heart was alerted intermittently, but he suddenly pressed the alarm bell.

From repulsion, to appreciation, to shoulder-to-shoulder joy, to the fit of dance.

Then to the discomfort of being stabbed by her words in the previous conversation, and the pity at this moment.

Miss Elizabeth had brought him too many emotions, and he could no longer force himself to ignore the strange feeling she brought him.

That night, in Netherfield Gardens, only Mr. Hurst slept soundly, and almost everyone else either slept restlessly or did not sleep at all.

The next morning, the warm sun fell on Netherfield Gardens.

After a night, the sun was shining brightly, as if there had never been that heavy rain, except for the moist soil in the countryside and the occasional warm air.Isa propped up her little head, with a blanket draped over her shoulders, drowsy by Jane's bed.She was too tired, but she was worried about Jane. She always woke up suddenly after falling asleep for a few minutes, with an unsteady heartbeat vibrating rapidly in her chest.

Mr. Darcy got up early in the morning. He was eating breakfast and looking upstairs from time to time.

Mrs. Hurst, who had just gone out for a walk, exclaimed as soon as she came in, "My God, I saw the carriage that Elizabeth was riding in. It is really exquisite and beautiful. Although it is not so spacious, it looks very elegant. Oh, and there's a family crest on it."

Miss Bingley was immediately attracted, "Really, but isn't the Bennett family so poor that they don't even have the money to renovate the house? How could they have such a luxurious carriage!"

"I'm amazed at that too, my dear, go and have a look!" said Mrs. Hurst.

Miss Bingley really went out to take a closer look, and when she came back she said incredulously, "Really, how could this be true!"

While they were yelling and discussing each other in surprise, Yisha suddenly came down from above.Even though she hadn't slept all night, her walking posture was still so elegant and calm. Although her steps seemed a little light, it made people feel more charming.Darcy watched intently.

She went into the kitchen, asked the servant to bring two breakfasts, and went to Jane's guest room.

When she was going up the stairs, she looked back at the two sisters who had stopped talking, and smiled, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your talk, please continue." Turned around and went upstairs.

Miss Bingley and Mrs. Hurst turned blue at the same time, my God, this Miss Elizabeth is really good at embarrassing people.

Jane woke up, and after Isa took care of her and had breakfast, her heart relaxed.

Most of her high fever has subsided, and there is only a little low-grade fever left, so there will be no major problems anymore. From now on, as long as she has a good rest and consolidates, she can fully recover.After relaxing, Isa felt even more drowsy. She propped her head up and down a little bit, and sometimes covered her lips and yawned a little, and then her eyes became foggy.

Darcy who walked in saw this scene, his eyes darkened, and he stepped forward, "Miss Elizabeth, I think you should rest, Miss Bennet has recovered a lot, and the next care can be taken care of by the servant." People do it."

Isa hesitated for a moment, saw the firmness on Darcy's face, and felt that she was really tired, so she nodded.

Almost floating to the guest room, Isa fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.

After sleeping until the afternoon, I looked and found that Jane was still asleep, so Isa went downstairs.

They were playing cards, which was Mr. Hurst's favorite activity after eating and sleeping.And Mr. Darcy, with his usual out of place look, sat on the side writing letters with some absent-mindedness, taciturn and quiet.

Seeing Isha walking down, they invited her to join the game, but Isha shook her head decisively and refused.

She has never liked playing cards, and thinks it is too time-consuming and meaningless.

Sitting down, she leaned there to rest.After a while, Miss Bingley threw away the cards. She couldn't help but approached her, and couldn't help asking, "Miss Elizabeth, I don't know how you got your carriage. I saw the card on it." The family crest, that's a pattern I've never seen before."

Isa raised her head, "That's the family crest of the Bennett family."

Miss Bingley was taken aback, "But..."

Darcy suddenly stopped writing the letter and interrupted, "Caroline, you ask too many questions."

Miss Bingley kept her mouth shut unwillingly, and it didn't take long for Netherfield Gardens to welcome another group of guests.It was Mary and Kitty who came back. Mrs. Bennet was angry at Jane and hated the people in Netherfield Garden. She also felt guilty and was afraid that Isa would be angry, so she didn't come and hid at home and waited. Follow the daughters to bring back news.

Mary and Kitty came in a carriage. They were neatly dressed and brought a change of clothes. After they walked in, they greeted each other politely and elegantly, without losing any manners.

Mr. Bingley hastened out to meet Jane, and when they had all called on Jane, he invited Kitty and Mary to join the game.

Marie was least fond of poker, but Kitty was somewhat interested in the game, and joined in.

You know, their etiquette is taught by Isha, but what Isha doesn't know, they can only learn by themselves.Kitty is not stupid, but there is no one in the family to play cards with her, and she loses a lot in a row.Her face turned red, and she realized that the stakes in this game were a bit high, so she immediately put down the cards in embarrassment.

Miss Bingley seized the opportunity and immediately began to sarcasm, "Have you stopped playing? Oh, I think you have lost too much, it's okay, we just have a small gamble, it's better if you win it's yours, and you lose it How about ours?"

Mr. Bingley quickly agreed, "Yes, you mustn't mind."

He didn't realize how embarrassing such words were to Kitty. Miss Bingley looked at Kitty's flushed face and eye circles, and felt a little smug in her heart. Displeased Miss Bennett had become her greatest concern. She didn't know that these emotions of hers originated from jealousy.

Mr. Darcy frowned and was about to speak when Isa looked up from her conversation with Mary.

He immediately stopped talking, and waited for Miss Elizabeth's words.

"Miss Bingley, you are really generous." Isa smiled, "However, the Bennett family can still afford this little bet. I don't think you guys have played too much, so you don't need to worry about it." Her words were calm, without the provocation in Miss Bingley's words at all, and she immediately set off Miss Bingley's face.

She looked at Kitty again, her eyes full of encouragement and hints that others could not understand.

Kitty felt relieved, although she still had some doubts, she believed in her sister unconditionally.

Darcy saw how she defended her sister, and couldn't help but smile, "Miss Elizabeth, don't you think you are a little too generous?"

Yisha smiled and looked back, "Money can be earned again, but happiness and dignity are priceless."

Darcy's gaze moved slightly, fixed on her shining black eyes, and his throat rolled slightly.

Only Mary could hear the conversation between the two of them. Miss Bingley tried her best to bring her ears closer, hoping to hear what they were talking about, but she couldn't succeed.She had no choice but to stand up and circle around Mr. Darcy several times with the most elegant gait, "Darcy, your handwriting is really beautiful, if I receive such a sincere letter, I will be very happy." happy."

He didn't answer.

Then, Miss Bingley continued to talk about Miss Darcy persistently, complimenting and praising her, which made Mr. Darcy impatient.Finally, Miss Bingley finally stopped talking, but circled around him repeatedly.She hoped that Darcy could see her gait at this time, but it was too embarrassing to walk around alone, so she wanted to invite Miss Elizabeth or Miss Mary to come and walk with her.

On second thought, Miss Bingley dismissed the idea again.

The ladies of the Bennet family all have extremely beautiful gait and beautiful manners. She is unwilling to admit these, but how could she not understand them in her heart.She would rather not go than Darcy cast his eyes on Miss Elizabeth.

After thinking about it, Miss Bingley suddenly walked towards Mary and Isa, "Misses of the Bennet family, I wonder if I have the honor to listen to you play a piece?" She was afraid that they would refuse, and added "Oh, it would be too bad to be a lady without a little talent, don't you think, Darcy?"

The pen in Darcy's hand stopped slightly, and he looked at Miss Elizabeth involuntarily.

Well, her dancing steps are so charming, her gait is so elegant, her etiquette is so perfect, and her demeanor is also excellent. He has long forgotten his desire to find some shortcomings in her. At this moment, he suddenly heard such a proposal, He also couldn't help being curious.

I don't know if music is Miss Elizabeth's biggest shortcoming?

Looking at her with burning eyes, Isa did not accept this curiosity, she smiled and nodded at Mary, "Mary, look, Miss Bingley wants you to play a song, we, as visitors, must accept this request. Don't worry, Mary, just play and play."

Mary's blue eyes were shining brightly, and she nodded quickly in agreement, her gestures were not at all contrived.

Miss Bingley's complexion changed. Seeing Darcy's interested eyes, she suddenly felt that she had miscalculated... Could it be that the ladies of the Bennet family really have very proud talents?

She gracefully walked to the side of the piano and sat down quietly.

Just this one move is already very eye-catching, and the people who are playing cards all looked over.Mary is already extremely confident in her piano skills, so she naturally has no burden to play on such occasions.She analyzed the current situation, and took it for granted that she chose a famous song that was very difficult and well-known.

When the song came down, she won applause from the audience.

Miss Bingley sat there with a livid face, watching Mary show off, she really felt uncomfortable.

She wanted to stand up against Mary's poor piano skills, proudly let her smooth piano sound sound, and conquer everyone. Of course, the first thing she wanted to conquer was Darcy's ears, but when Mary really played After it was over, she never dared to ask to play again.

There is no doubt that Mary's piano skills are very superb and full of skill. She played such a difficult famous piece with flavor and fluency, as beautiful as if her fingers were covered with flowers.

"Sure enough, the ladies of the Bennett family are all very talented." Darcy said this, but looked at Isa.

He believed that, just like dance steps, no matter how good her sisters learned, they never surpassed this professor.Miss Elizabeth is their teacher, possessing talent several times higher than theirs, but she is so shy to show off, she is always unwilling to let people pry into her perfection.

But it was this kind of her that created infinite reverie in his heart.

Darcy lowered his eyes and added a sentence to his letter to Georgiana.

——Georgianna, you must not believe me when I say this, but I did meet a perfect lady in my mind. She is like an exquisite gift box that can never be disassembled, bringing me infinite fun.I sincerely hope that one day you will be able to meet each other, it will definitely bring you many benefits. ——

After writing this sentence, Darcy spread out the letter paper, let the ink dry, folded it, and put it in an envelope.

***

On this day, it was already late autumn, and there was a hint of early winter in the air, and the people in the town were busy.

They dressed up meticulously, got into the carriage, and headed for Bell Manor, which was a little far away.

That's right, today is the day when Bell Manor holds a ball, and it is also a day that everyone is looking forward to and curious about.Just today, the owner of Bell Manor will come to the surface to satisfy the gossip psychology of all the people in the town!

In Netherfield Gardens, Mr. Bingley was solemnly choosing clothes for himself.

The last time Jane came here, she fell ill, and he was able to have a conversation with her when she was about to leave. I really didn't know whether to make him happy or sad about the conversation. The happy thing is that Miss Jane is so kind. Compassionately, she gently expressed that she understood his hesitation that day, and said that she did not blame him, but what was worrying was that Miss Jian never showed any other feelings.

At this time, Mr. Bingley would rather she lose her temper and fight coldly than see her so submissive, as if whether he retreated or fell in love with her was an unimportant matter.

Mr. Darcy chose a dress at random, but when he thought of what Bingley said, he stood in front of the mirror and hesitated again.

After thinking about it for a while, he was afraid of looking too grand and too rigid on the one hand, so he changed his monotonous towel to another color, folded it and put it in his breast pocket, and changed a set of accessories inside.

His approach is undoubtedly very correct, which not only makes him appear less monotonous, but also gives off his special brilliance in a low-key manner.Just a little bit of embellishment made his whole outfit look different.

The four-horse limousine in Netherfield Gardens is driving towards Bell Manor, Bingley is looking forward to seeing Jane at the ball, and Darcy is also looking forward to the ball.Only he here knows that after today, the Bennett family will be very different to Hertford County.

By this time, the Bennett's house in Longbourne was empty.

They were taken to Bell Manor by Isa as early as last night.

Now, Mrs. Bennett has accepted this big news with excitement. She didn't sleep all night, and repeatedly complained about Isa and Mr. Bennett's concealment, but such a lie is getting everything so good At that time, she could no longer really blame her!

All she could think was that the Bennets were so rich, and that her daughters would have lovely dowries!

You don't have to worry about getting married anymore.

Mrs. Bennet can imagine that the golden bachelor will definitely step on the threshold of the Bennet family in the near future, and her daughters will have countless opportunities to choose.

Looking at Mrs. Bennet who couldn't calm down, Isa showed a smile and persuaded, "Mom, the ball is about to start. For this debut, we have prepared a beautiful evening dress for you. You don't want to hurry up. Look at it and put it on?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Bennet didn't care about anything else, and soon followed the servants to the room to change.

The entire Bell Manor is busy in the bustling, and Isa has already cut the most beautiful dresses for her sisters, and each of them has several sets.She used high-end fabrics, hired a talented tailor, and made it according to the design drawings drawn by Isa herself.

These skirts, decorations, hats, and lupines are absolutely unique in Hertfordshire.

Putting on these exquisite costumes, the sisters felt a little bitter and rewarding, which made their eye sockets a little sore, and they couldn't get back to their senses for a long time.

Bell Manor is so delicate, so spacious, so big.

Behind this exquisite house, there are boundless vineyards and a large pasture. Kitty has already begun to look forward to the pleasant feeling of running against the sky in that pasture.

Look at the respectful servants behind them, the exquisite dresses on their bodies, the huge room, and the big bed surrounded by beautiful veils.

Whether it was Kitty, Mary, or Jane, they all felt like they were in a dream.

Such a beautiful moment is like Cinderella's dream, but they all know that when the twelve o'clock bell strikes, everything will not end.

However, after Mrs. Bennet was excited, she felt a little regretful. Her lovely little daughter has not come back. This is the most frustrating thing!

It would be great if the whole family was here on such a beautiful day.

In such anticipation, a small carriage stopped at the gate of Bell Manor, and a beautiful and slender girl jumped down lively first, and stood at the gate of Bell Manor.Looking at this beautiful manor, even though she knew something about it in the letter, she couldn't help but feel happy.

She smiled grinningly, and said to the housekeeper, "Are you Mr. Lauren? I've heard from my sister that she has a capable housekeeper, so I can see that it's you!" Her young face was full of youth and enthusiasm. Beautiful radiance, she loves to laugh so much, and she smiled to herself, "I'm Lydia Bennett."

Behind her were the two young Miss Brown from the original ball. They stepped out of the carriage gracefully and looked around reservedly. They were not surprised when they saw this beautiful manor.The Brown family's land is no smaller than this.And beside them, there are three men, who are the male companions brought by the three girls.
