Pride and Prejudice Mr Bennett

"Dad, how do you pronounce this word?"

In the afternoon, in the bright study room, Jane raised her head and asked James the word she was pointing to. The walls of the study room were painted light yellow, and there were a few childish pictures pasted on them. Brightly colored decorations adorned the space of the study room. There are also soft sofas, a few books for children to learn to read, and there are fairy tale books that children like.Jane likes to read books here with her father. The environment here is very good. When she came here for the first time, Jane fell in love with her. And as long as her father is free, her father will accompany her to read books, even though the books her father reads are not interesting at all. They are all words, and I don’t know many of the words there, but when I am with my father, when I encounter a word that I don’t understand, I ask my father, and my father will tell me, and he can tell a lot about that word. As for the matter, Jane felt that her father was very powerful, and he was the most knowledgeable person.

"This is, the sea, the sea." James looked at Jane's serious look, and smiled softly, "Does Jane still remember the mermaid story that Dad told you? Mermaids can't live without sea water, the sea is huge, sea water It is salty, just like the boiled water we drink with salt added, but the sea water has its own unique taste, at the seaside, the sea breeze blows on the face and you can smell the saltiness of the sea water in it.”

"But Dad, Jane has never seen the sea. Is there really a mermaid in the sea? I want to see a beautiful mermaid." Jane said eagerly to James, the mermaid that Dad said is beautiful, and it would be great if she had one at home.

"This father can't help it. Dad has never seen a mermaid. Dad also heard what he said. It's what your grandfather said when he was a child. But so far, Dad hasn't been to the sea, but the book says that the sea is very spectacular. Wait. Will Jane take Dad to see the sea when she grows up?"

"Dad, you haven't seen the sea yet. Well, when Jane grows up, she must take her father to the sea to find a mermaid." Jane felt a little disappointed, but thinking that her father had never seen a mermaid, she couldn't make her sad. Instead, she comforted her father that she would surely fulfill her father's wish when she grows up, opened her special drawer, and picked up her small book, which she used to record important things, for fear that she would forget it in the future. "Father, I will remember the sea, and Jane will never forget it." Then solemnly wrote "When Jane grows up, take Dad to see the sea to find the mermaid".Then carefully put the small book back into the drawer.

James rubbed Jane's little head and smiled silently.

"Sir, Mr. Smith is back and said he wanted to see you."

"Oh? He's back, pretty soon. Where is he now?" James asked Mr. Smith to go out for some errands, and he came back after only three days. It seemed that he had news.

"Mr. Smith is in the living room right now." The servant replied quickly.

"Then ask him to come to my study. And ask Jenny to come up and take care of the young lady."

"Yes." The servant agreed and left.

James looked at Jane who was still flipping through the storybook, she should just be looking at the pretty pictures. "Dad has something to leave. Can Jane read here by herself, dear."

"Okay, then Dad, you will come over and read with Jane later, there is still a lot that Jane doesn't understand."

"Okay, Daddy's baby, if you don't want to read, go and see if your mother is awake, it's time for your mother to get up."

"Well, Jane will go and wake up mom in a while." Jane nodded heavily, and must remember what Dad wants to do by himself.

"Jane is the best. Dad is leaving now. Goodbye, baby."

"Goodbye, Dad."

"come in."

Mr. Smith waited at the door of the study, and stood up straight when James came. "gentlemen."

"Sir, I have inquired about the purchase of the land you explained. There are three more suitable places. I have sorted them out. You can take a look." Smith handed James the information on the land that he found that met James' requirements. That's right, James stayed at home for a while and was too free, so I remembered that at this time, it seems that the new British nobles are carrying out the "enclosure movement" in order to accumulate capital, and I still want to be a big landlord Well, I still have to start as soon as possible. If it is too late, the competition will increase. Maybe the meat will be shared by others, and I may not even have a portion of the soup.And since the yogurt was made, James wondered if it was possible to improve the technology and extend the shelf life of yogurt. Even if he couldn’t make yogurt, he could actually earn a lot of income by raising cows and lambs on pastures. Looking at it now Adding land will definitely not hurt you, but you still have to focus on outside business. After all, future business development is the general trend of society.

"Well, you should have inquired about the situation of the owners of these lands. I have read them all." After reading the three documents in his hand, James was most satisfied with the one close to the poultry he had visited before. The manor is not far from home. The most important thing is that after buying it, it can be connected with your own manor, which makes it easier to manage and does not require so many people.James tried hard to think about the terrain near the manor, well, it was still flat, and it would be very convenient to use that land for anything in the future.

"Tell me about the owner of that piece of land." James still wanted to find out before making a decision, even though he was most optimistic about that piece of land.

"It's sir." Smith organized his own language and must be objective. James had warned him that everything must be true, lest he be misled and make wrong decisions. "The land belongs to Mr. Taylor. Mr. Taylor's family is in London. The second son of the family has no inheritance rights. When the family was divided, the land was allocated. I found out that Mr. Taylor was going to do business elsewhere, but there was not enough money, and Taylor Monsieur thinks the land is too far from London to manage."

"Where did this news come from?" Logically speaking, ordinary news would not be so detailed.

"This is an acquaintance of mine who has friendship with Mr. Taylor, so I found out." Smith honestly revealed his news channel.

"Is there anyone else who wants to buy that land? Is there anyone talking to Taylor?"

"No, at least I didn't get any news."

When James heard this, that was enough, so he said, "So who is the person in charge of that land now, and where is it?"

"Mr. Taylor is in charge of that land now, and Mr. Taylor is still staying in the town, living in the Yijian Hotel in the town."

"Then you go to the town, visit Mr. Taylor, tell him my intention to buy the land, and make an appointment for an interview."

"Yes sir, I'm going now."

Now I still sleep in the afternoon, and it takes only half an hour to go to town, so it won't make people feel urgent or abrupt.And seeing that Mr. Taylor is still in the town, he may be in a hurry to sell the land, so he has more room for negotiation.

Since nothing happened, James came to the child's study again to see if Jane was still there, but found that she was no longer there, so it might be downstairs.Sure enough, Mrs. Bennet and Jane downstairs were drinking a cup of yogurt. Drinking yogurt in summer is really comfortable, as you can see from the way Mrs. Bennet and Jane enjoyed it.Looking at it, James wanted to drink too. He looked at the servant beside him and motioned for him to get a drink too.

Mrs. Bennet and Jane didn't find James until he approached. Jane obediently called Dad. Mrs. Bennet drank the last sip of yogurt and said, "My dear, you are coming down. This yogurt is delicious, you say Shall we give some to the neighbors to try?" Mrs. Bennet looked at James cautiously, it was she who slipped the tongue once, showing off to her friends how much her husband loves her, accidentally They talked about the yogurt, and said how delicious yogurt is, especially when drinking yogurt during pregnancy, it makes them feel a lot better.But Mrs. Bennet was worried that James would be unhappy. After all, James asked someone to make it, and she didn't say it was going to be given to the neighbors at the beginning, and it was the first time she heard about yogurt, thinking it was for business. , I don’t know what James thinks, I’m afraid James will be angry.

"Then tell the kitchen to do more tomorrow, and you can ask Mrs. Smith to send it over." James actually forgot about this. Poor James, you will encounter such a thing in Hyundai. You should wait for Jane quickly. Come and help you housekeeper, a big man, I wrong you to take care of these family relationships.Here in the countryside, neighbors usually just say hello when they meet, and they are already acquaintances. There will be a simple neighbor relationship here, and people are easy to get along with. The neighbor relationship is very close. Usually, each family will send out some good things. To neighbors, but also frequent visits. "Also, after the neighbors drink it, ask how it works." I don't know if other people can accept yogurt. If the public accepts it, then opening a store in the town is actually quite good.

Mrs. Bennet was relieved when she saw that James didn't look angry, "Great, they will like it, I'll let Mrs. Smith do it later."

The relieved Mrs. Bennet then talked to James about her affairs with the housewives in the village, as well as the gossip in the village. James was speechless, watching Mrs. Bennet keep talking there, couldn’t she see I wonder if I don't like to hear about these three aunts and six wives, I wonder if there is a man who would be interested in these things, he is really nervous.Seeing how energetic she was talking, James could only sit there quietly drinking yogurt, but his mind had long since ceased to be here.In the future, let her go out and meet her female friends more, lest she hold back enough to talk to him, he really can't hold it if he talks too much, anyway, since he is at home now, she will be fine if she goes out.When she said that she needed to drink water, James hurriedly left. Seeing his back, he felt like he was running away in a panic. There was also our little Baozi Jane. Seeing his father leaving, she also followed immediately. If James If you look back, you will see the slyness in Mrs. Bennet's eyes, hehe, see if you won't let me out.

In fact, James, you have been deceived. In the original book, Mrs. Bennet can give birth to five girls. Even if there is no heir, Mr. Bennet has no illegitimate children. Superficial people.
