After Anne's wedding, it was soon Lucy's turn, and the same grand wedding was extremely enviable.Those who attended the wedding felt that Sister Steele's luck was a bit too good. Of course, most of them felt that the two sisters Steele's charm skills were too powerful, otherwise how could they catch both of them at the same time? Two good men.Many people also deliberately made sidelines to them, hoping to know what methods they used, so that the two gentlemen abandoned their class concept and resolutely married them.This made Anne and Lucy very troubled, but at the same time they felt very proud. They did get the wedding that many ladies dream of, which is really unbelievable.

That afternoon Annie was sitting in the living room reading a book, when Lucy suddenly rushed in from outside, she threw the shawl and hat to the maid, sat down on the sofa, fanned the fan vigorously and said: "This weather is terrible." It's really hot, it's so hot before it's summer, it's disgusting."

"Lucy." Annie sighed, put the book on the coffee table, and then raised her hand to ask the maid to bring some refreshments. According to past experience, as long as Lucy comes over, she won't be able to quietly be herself thing.

Since their marriage, the two sisters have embarked on completely different paths of development.Anne's whole body became quiet. She was as gorgeous and calm as Pemberley Manor. She became a noble and dignified young woman, which suited her status and fulfilled her life goals.And Lucy married Robert, because her life went smoothly, and her personality became more lively below the rules. Annie could imagine that one day Lucy would become an old woman like Mrs. Jennings, and some Obnoxious and somewhat endearing.

"Well, I'm starving to death. I didn't have lunch at noon to save me. I'm eating here tonight. Where's my brother-in-law? Isn't he at home?" Lucy picked up a muffin and took a big bite, sighing contentedly.

Annie picked up the coffee and took a sip. Thinking of Mr. Darcy, she put a smile on her face, "Going out to work, and I'll be back after dinner."

"Annie, brother-in-law is always so busy, and you always stay at home, don't you feel bored?"

"It's boring, but I'm not idle. In such a big house, there are many things to worry about all day long. If you want me to say that you should take good care of the housekeeper, don't push it all into the hands of the housekeepers." inside."

"I'm not going to do it! Housekeeping is done by old women. I want to have fun before I have children. Even if I want to have children, I won't be able to play." Lucy said without thinking Rejecting Annie's proposal, he said after a while: "The days are getting hotter and hotter, why don't we go to the countryside to escape the summer heat together, I miss the scenery of the countryside a little bit!"

"That's a good suggestion." Mr. Darcy came in from the door, sat next to Anne and hugged her shoulder affectionately, and then said with a smile: "Just now Charles just told me that he wanted to invite us to go to the countryside together Well, I was just coming back to ask your opinion, and I know you don't like his sister very much, and if you don't, we'll go back to Pemberley for the summer."

Before Annie answered, Lucy hurriedly asked, "Did Mr. Bingley only date you?"

"If you and Mr. Robert would like to come along, he would certainly welcome you," said Mr. Darcy.

"Where does Mr. Bingley plan to take everyone to spend the summer?" Lucy asked again. The Ferrars family has manors in several places in the countryside. She has never seen these manors. Lucy originally wanted to take Annie We went to their family's manor to play together.But if Mr. Bingley took them to spend the summer in a nice place, she would like to join them all, which was much more fun than going to a place where no one knew anyone.

Mr. Darcy changed his countenance, and said: "Charles wants to go to Netherfield at Longbourn."

"Langbourn? Why did he go there? I thought he had already given up the lease on the manor. Did he still keep it?" Anne frowned. Does Longbourn have that Miss Bennet? Bingley What's the matter with the husband and his new wife.

"It is said that Caroline praised the beauty of Netherfield Garden several times in front of Mrs. Bingley," said Mr. Darcy.

"Oh, so he wants to drag us over to help him ease the embarrassment, right?" Annie said.

Mr. Darcy raised his eyebrows and said nothing, but there was no need to say the answer.

"If it's Mr. Bingley's request, I don't mind living in Longbourn for a summer." Anne readily agreed to the summer vacation plan. In fact, she is quite curious about the current situation of the Bennet family. She doesn't know which family What would be the situation now without the aura of the protagonist.

"Then Robert and I will go too." Lucy immediately made a decision, looking as if she was about to watch a good show.Since Miss Bingley lost hope of marrying Mr. Darcy, her character has become more and more paranoid, and it is impossible not to have something fun this summer.

When Mr. Bingley returned to Longbourne's Netherfield Gardens again, the manor was exactly the same as when they left, and the whole Longbourn

It doesn't look any different from last year, but everyone knows in their hearts that everything has changed.

Mrs. Bingley, who had just taken office, complimented Mr. Bingley very much. She expressed her love for the house as soon as she arrived at Netherfield Gardens, and then excitedly began to order the servants to decorate the master bedroom.

"It seems that we can spend a very pleasant summer here." Miss Bingley said while standing aside with her arms folded.

"Caroline, you must be tired after traveling for the past few days. Go to your room and rest. I will send someone to call you during dinner." Mr. Bingley said with a grim expression.

"What did you say?" Miss Bingley looked at Mr. Bingley incredulously, "Do you want to lock me up, Charles?"

"No, I just want you to go back to your room and rest right now, right now!" snapped Mr. Bingley, pointing to the stairs.

It was not his intention to go back to Longbourn this time. Miss Bingley mentioned the scenery of Longbourn to Mrs. Bingley for some unknown reason a month ago, and then Mrs. Bingley told him that she wanted to come to Longbourne for the summer. , what reason does he have to refuse the little request of the new wife? Mrs. Bingley will know his love story in Longbourn sooner or later. If he refuses, it will be difficult to explain, so Mr. Bingley has to agree .

"You can't do this to me!" Miss Bingley waved off a few pillows on the sofa angrily, but returned to her room anyway.

"It seems that this summer will be really interesting." Lucy whispered in Annie's ear.

"I think so too." Annie smiled and nodded.

"Did you say that the Bennet family will come back from the dance in a few days? I don't know if that Miss Bennet is married. If not, it must be fun?"

"That Miss Bennet won't marry too badly even if she relies on her beauty alone. If she hasn't married yet, after two years and everyone forgets about the elopement of their youngest daughter, she can still marry if she manages well. It's a good family." After Anne finished speaking, she ignored the topic and turned to instruct the servants to tidy up his and Mr. Darcy's rooms.

The arrival of Mr. Bingley's party undoubtedly caused another sensation at Longbourn, and this time it was more noticeable than the previous one.Thanks to Mrs. Bennet's publicity a year ago, the whole Longbourn and nearby villages knew that Mr. Bingley was crazy about pursuing the eldest lady of the Bennet family. Of course, they knew better about the youngest daughter of the Bennet family who eloped later. Then Mr. Bingley dumped Jane Bennet.Now that Mr. Bingley and his wife are back, most of the people are waiting to see the Bennet jokes.

To be honest, Mrs. Bennet has always thought that if she has a few beautiful daughters, she will be able to marry a rich man. Her arrogant attitude has really offended many families with unmarried daughters. Those daughters may not be as tall as Jane Bennet and Elizabeth Bennet were handsome, and perhaps not as bright and lively as they were, but they never felt inferior.

So how proud Mrs. Bennet was at the beginning, she is ashamed now, but this lady obviously doesn't think she is ashamed. She just blames Jane for not being able to catch Mr. Bingley well, and now it is cheap other people.

Mr. Bennet impatiently put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said to Mrs. Bennet: "My dear wife, you must have forgotten that our eldest daughter got married at the end of last year. someone else."

"Oh, my nerves! Mr. Bennet, why are you reminding me that this is the marriage that dissatisfies me the most. Our eldest son-in-law only earns two thousand pounds a year, and he is not good-looking at all." , Jane doesn't love him, how can he compare to Mr. Bingley!" Mrs. Bennet said with a face full of regret.

Mr. Bennet opened his mouth, and was about to say something more, when Elizabeth, who had been sitting on her seat and eating, suddenly interrupted angrily: "Mom, if you didn't let Lydia hang out with those officers, how could Jane Would you marry someone you don't like?! But let me tell you, mom, don't miss Mr. Bingley too much. He is not as good as you think. If he is really a good gentleman, he shouldn't be because of Liddy. Blame Jane for Ya's matter. I'd like to see what kind of good wife he married, I'm afraid not even a ten thousandth of Jane's!"

Mr. Bennet didn't expect Elizabeth to have such a big resentment about these things, he looked at her in surprise and said, "Lissie, even if Mr. Bingley is not as good as we said, you can't blame him for this matter." , it was not an unwise decision for him to do so."

"Dad?" Elizabeth looked up and was about to retort, but she finally closed her mouth when she saw Mr. Bennet's displeased expression.

Elizabeth stopped arguing, and Mrs. Bennet also shut up. The atmosphere at the dinner table finally got better. Kitty, who had been wanting to talk, finally found a chance to speak. She said cheerfully, "Why do you only think about Bentley?" Sir, why don't you tell me about Mr. Darcy, I heard that Mr. Darcy also brought a companion this time, probably his wife."

"Mr. Darcy's wife? Will he have a wife?" Mrs. Bennet curled her lips when she heard this. In her mind, Mr. Darcy's bad temper could not find any wife, and even if he could find one, it would not be a good thing woman.

"Mr. Darcy is a gentleman, so he will naturally have a lady as his wife." Mr. Bennet said, reaching for the newspaper on the table and flipping through it.

"Mr. Darcy is married?" Elizabeth looked at Kitty in surprise, and asked, "Who said that?"

"That's what everyone else said. Mrs. Smith also said that when Mr. Bingley and his carriage passed through the town, she saw Mr. Darcy and a lady sitting in the same carriage, just like Mr. Bingley and Mrs. Bingley. Sit together. I really wonder what kind of person that lady is, who can endure Mr. Darcy's arrogant temper." Kitty said happily.

Elizabeth became even angrier after hearing this. For the fact that her eldest sister, the person she loves the most in the family, could not get a happy marriage, Elizabeth has always held a deep resentment. She resented all those who caused her to have a bad life Naturally, among them is Mr. Darcy, who was at the beginning between Jane and Mr. Bingley.Elizabeth thinks that a person like Mr. Darcy cannot have a happy love, because he is not a person who knows how to love. Sometimes Elizabeth even thinks with the greatest malice that Mr. Darcy may be killed because of his arrogance and indifference. Living alone, with such thoughts in mind, she would naturally feel very uncomfortable when she heard that Mr. Darcy was married.

"I'm full, I'm going out for a walk." Elizabeth became more and more angry as she thought about it, and finally threw away the fork in her hand, and ran out of the house full of anger.

Mr. Bennet looked at Elizabeth's back and sighed helplessly. He didn't understand why Elizabeth, who had always been cheerful and kind, became what she is now. It may be a pity that Jane didn't marry a Mr. Bingley, but with their family now In terms of the situation, Jane married very well. Their eldest son-in-law has an income of more than 2000 pounds a year, which is quite enough for the couple. Besides, the eldest son-in-law is really a good person. Elizabeth should be happy for Jane, but she always looks full of anger, which makes him very worried.
