Pride and Prejudice Mr Bennett

Three days have passed, and our Bennets have returned to their home in Longbourne, Mrs Bennet did not want to stay in the hospital, and after the doctor's permission, they returned home today, James arranged for an enlarged carriage with thick cushions and soft quilts. He was worried that Mrs. Bennet and the children would be cold. During these three days, James spent more than half of his time Time is spent on choosing the employment of taking care of Jane, in order for Mrs. Bennet to have a good rest. In addition, they are both first-time parents and are not very good at taking care of children. This requires an experienced helper, except In addition to taking care of Jane, she also had to teach Jane how to take care of the children, so it was very difficult to find this helper. Finally, after the head nurse at the hospital found out, she recommended one to James, Mrs. Green. Mrs. Green’s husband had passed away. , and she has to support two children to study, James decided to hire her after meeting Mrs. Green and after further investigation.

"Mrs. Smith, is the room ready? Send for the lady to be carried into the room, and now make up the room next to the nursery, which is for Mrs. Green."

"Yes sir, I'll go right away."

James looked at the orderly arrangement in front of him, said to Mrs. Bennet, and walked to the study on the second floor. The important documents of the family were stored in the study. When he opened the door, he saw a large bookshelf full of books. Although the full books cannot be compared with the big family's book collection, James is very satisfied. He likes to buy books and put them on the bookshelf.James walked to the bookshelf where the documents were placed, put all the documents on the table, and sat on the chair to carefully look at them one by one. Although he had the memory of his predecessor, many details were unclear. The predecessor himself did not have much financial management Ability, after the death of his parents, his property did not increase much, and he spent a lot of money before he got married. Originally, he didn't want to get married so early, but he hoped that someone would help manage the household chores, plus Mrs. Bennet's beauty , got married just a year and a half ago, only to find out after marriage that although Mrs. Bennet's brother is a shrewd lawyer, besides being beautiful and good at dressing up, she herself has little ability in managing the family, so in class After Mrs. Nate became pregnant, the family's financial situation became even more chaotic, because she often bought a lot of things for the baby, plus the expenses of the pregnant woman, and now she is still living on her own.

After reviewing the assets of the current family, James admired his predecessor's parents, perhaps because he knew that his children would not be able to run a business. Therefore, the inheritance left to James is all fields and forests. These are fixed assets. There are not many shortcomings. The deceased Bennetts have ordered that they are not allowed to sell those fields, so no matter what, at least they will not make their children poor, and they can still maintain the dignity of a gentleman. Judging from these bills, now The family's balance of payments is that there is no extra money just enough to spend, and there is an inheritance of [-] pounds left by the Bennetts.Knowing that it is not particularly short of money, it will be easy to handle. Mrs. Bennet's dowry James has no plans to move, and those fields will remain as they are for the time being, so there is only [-] pounds left to spend at will, but you have to hold [-] pounds You have to think carefully about what to do here. You still don’t understand the current social situation, so you need to be careful with the money.Looking back on the plot, it feels like the whole story is about Mrs. Bennet's struggle to marry her daughter.Ah, in the original book, there are five daughters and no sons. The house I live in now has to be inherited by my nephew. Oh, it’s too bad, which means that the house that belongs to me now will belong to someone else in the future. For James In my impression, my family is not close to the person who will inherit the house in the future, not to mention that the person in the future will pick a wife if he needs a wife. First, the beautiful Jane, Then to Elizabeth, hum, how could I allow someone to behave like this? Then I must have a male heir in the future. Now that I change myself, the plot should change. No matter what, I always need an heir to the Bennet family. In the Chinese concept, raising a son to look after the old, even if he does not favor sons over daughters, but under the current British law, women have no right to inherit property. If there is no heir, he may not have much desire to struggle, and he can live a petty bourgeoisie. Well, otherwise, who are you fighting for?

Knowing about the situation at home, James left the study to see what was going on outside, and called Mrs. Smith, she still answered meticulously, she was a rigorous person, "Sir, everything is arranged now, what do you have?" command?"

James thought for a while, and there was nothing she needed to do, so he said, "Then go prepare dinner now. Remember, you are responsible for your wife's basic necessities, take good care of her, and cook more food that is good for her."

With a smile in his eyes, Smith turned away and continued his work.The relationship between husband and wife is good, and the atmosphere at home will be very good. It seems that the heir will come soon, which is really good. Madam has been talking about it before her life, and James will grow up soon. Marry a little Bennett.

James seemed to be fine, so he went upstairs to see Mrs. Bennet, opened the door and found that Mrs. Bennet was sleeping soundly, but Jane next to him woke up, her eyes were open, she was neither crying nor fussing, very well-behaved, her mouth Every move is very cute.Going forward, wanting to hug but dare not hug, playing with Jane's little finger, Mrs. Green came in, saw James inside and didn't make a sound, just nodded, picked Jane up, and checked if there was anything wrong with Jane, On the contrary, James went out after finding out that it was very good here. He also wanted to take a look at the house and its surroundings before dinner.

This is a two-story typical English country house. There are ten rooms on the upper floor. Except for the master bedroom, the other houses are about the same size. The decoration and furnishings of the house are the same. They can be used as guest rooms or reserved In the child's bedroom, besides the hall and kitchen downstairs, there is also a small living room. The hall is very large and is used for banquets, and the small living room is used for receiving guests, etc. The kitchen is separated from cooking. There is also a storage room next to the kitchen, and the servants' room is on the other side of the adjoining wall.There is a back garden at the back of the house, which surprised James a lot. The lawn is very large, and some common flowers and plants in the UK are planted. There is a swing next to it. This is what the predecessor used to play when he was young. There are too many childhood memories in it Good memories.Thinking that this place can be transformed into what I like in the future. If possible, I can dig a pond, take a walk after dinner, and when I have free time, or when I am interested, I can also come here to fish. Some friends used to say that I am young. Why do I like being able to stay in one place quietly waiting for the fish to take the bait like an old and middle-aged person.Sitting on the swing and silently reminiscing or looking through the memories of my predecessors, this will allow me to better integrate into this society and better understand the laws of this society.When the sun sets, the most beautiful thing is the red sunset, which dyes half of the sky red.

The servant came to inform that the dinner was ready, and started the real first dinner in England at a leisurely pace. I was busy with adaptation and other things in the past few days, and the meal was simply perfunctory.Mrs. Bennet's dinner is used in her room by herself, so when she actually eats dinner, she is the only one eating alone, leaving someone beside him in case he needs other things. Today's dinner includes steak and salad, the main course It’s bread. Looking at these, James was speechless. He had expected that he might not be able to adapt to British food, but he didn’t even have rice. Bread was one of the foods he didn’t like to eat before. When he was in college, he didn’t have time to sleep late in the morning For breakfast, he would rather go to class hungry than just eat bread, which shows how much he doesn't like noodles.Forget it, I will change it slowly when I have a chance in the future, at least no bread.After a difficult dinner, my original determination to change the diet at home has increased from [-]% to [-]%.

Mrs. Bennet hugged Jane, and listening to Mrs. Green talking about how to hold the baby comfortably and how to take care of the baby, she couldn't help sighing: "Raising a child is so hard, and the child is so easy to get sick. Attention, Mrs. Green, I need you to pay more attention in the future."

Seeing how nervous Mrs. Bennet was, Mrs. Green couldn't help comforting her: "Ma'am, you don't have to be so nervous. It's just a disease that all babies are prone to, and it's not necessarily a disease. We can take care of the lady with a little attention." very good."

"Ah, dear, you are here. Mrs. Green said that babies are easy to get sick. Fortunately, you invited Mrs. Green to take care of Jane. If I am alone, I will be in a hurry."

Seeing James come in, Mrs. Green went out, while Mrs. Bennet looked relieved.For the time being, James couldn't say the intimate words of "dear" like Mrs. Bennet, so he chose to call Mrs. Bennet by her name.

"Kelly, don't worry, our Jane is healthy and we will take good care of her."

"Oh dear, have you hugged Jane yet? Give it a hug. Our Jane is so cute."

James was a little at a loss, because Mrs. Bennet had already handed Jane over. James was in a hurry and his whole body was stiff. Mrs. Bennet gave him a chuckle, and then taught him how to hug her.

"Hands down"

"Don't hold so tight"

A lot of words like that, and Mrs. Bennet also learned how to hug under the guidance of Mrs. Green.James finally learned how to hold the baby. Fortunately, Jane was very well-behaved, and she didn't cry to show her resistance during the tossing.After such an experience, James didn't want to and didn't know what to say to Mrs. Bennett. He told Mrs. Bennett to take good care of her body for the next month. Don't worry about other things, so she went back to the study on the pretext that she had something to deal with.And James didn't do anything, just took out a book of travel notes in the study, and felt sleepy after reading it for a while. Since arriving here, he has never let go of his heart, so he has not had a good rest. At home, it may be that the subconscious mind of the body feels safe when it comes back here, the whole person relaxes, the whole body is tired, and no matter what, I can finally sleep well.
