"The eldest lady of the Bennet family is really gentle, she is so polite to everyone, and she is also a talented lady. I don't know which lucky young master will be able to marry Miss Jane."

"Yes, Miss Jane is really gentle. According to the servants of the Bennett family, Jane has been housekeeping since she was 12 years old."

"Well, I've heard that too, but it seems that the servant was dismissed because she took a lot of things in the Viscount's mansion as gossip."

"This kind of person can't be used. A servant who can tell everything is unreliable."

"Then do you know what kind of people the other ladies and masters of the Bennet family are?"

"Are you new here? You don't know this. Although we don't know very well, we still know the general idea. The eldest lady of the Bennet family, Jane, is a gentle lady. The second lady, Elizabeth, is very cheerful and smiles. It looks very nice. Third Miss Mary and Master Matt are a pair of twins. They are 11 years old this year. I heard that Master Matt is very smart. The Viscount has been with him to teach. Miss Mary likes to read very much. Some people say that Miss Mary’s bedroom is full of It is full of books. I don’t know if this is true, but it is true that Miss Mary seldom goes out. The fourth lady, Miss Kitty, was not in good health when she was a child, so she didn’t come out very often, but now she is in good health and is as good as ordinary people. It's almost the same. Recently, I often go out for a walk with Lord Viscount. She looks a little thin, but her face is very good, and the fourth lady is only 10 years old. She is very beautiful. She must be a beauty when she grows up. The fifth lady Lydia He is very lively, one year younger than Miss Kitty, and often takes Miss Kitty out, but it is said, ahem, there are gossip that the Viscount is very strict with Miss Lydia, but Miss Lydia is not afraid of the Viscount grown ups."

"Ah, thank you so much, but the Viscount's family is really low-key."

"Who says it's not? There's probably only one ball a year, but many people are still looking forward to it. Every time I go to the Viscount's house to hold a ball, it's as lively as a festival."

"The Viscountess is really happy. It is said that she is in her 30s this year and still looks like 27. I don't know how to maintain it. It would be great if I could know the way, but unfortunately we couldn't talk to the Viscountess. Let's talk."

All the above are things that the residents of Longbourn say every day, but sometimes they just show off what they know to outsiders who don’t know it, as if it’s such a new thing.

Ten years later, Longbourne is still the same, not much has changed. The biggest change is that since James became a Viscount, the Bennett family has always been the topic of Longbourn.As big as adding a baby to the Bennett family, and as small as Mrs. Bennet's dressing, people in Longbourn can always find a topic. This makes James, who is already low-key, thoroughly implement the otaku policy Going out, even morning and evening walks and other outdoor sports, are arranged in the renovated back garden.Speaking of the back garden of the Bennett family, it was James who had a too leisurely life and set his sights on the back garden when his own property was developing steadily and his affairs were handled by his agent, Lewis. He has no shortage of money to build a garden, and when he goes out, he will always meet someone who wants to talk to him, so the current situation is that the Viscount of the Bennet family is an extremely low-key person.

But the low-key Bennett House is very lively now. The whole family gathers in the living room. This is not the usual family time after dinner. It is really not easy for the whole family to be together. Things to do, mainly the kids have to attend lessons with tutors during the day.

"Honey, what are you talking about? Let Jane go to the Isa Girls' School in London? Why, isn't it good at home? And Jane is already very good, and Miss Glady teaches very well."

Early in the morning, James told Jane to go to the Isha School in London, and it was a closed education, and it would take another two years. Jane was already 16 years old, and Mrs. Bennet had already begun to seriously consider Jane's marriage.

"You heard me right. Isa Girls' School is a school that specializes in cultivating ladies. The teachers in the school are very strong. The main reason is that you can broaden your horizons there. Also, it was recommended by Miss Glady, Miss Glady said. Yes, she has taught everything she can, but there are some things she can't do, such as social skills, which are always on paper, and can be studied more systematically at school." James said to Mrs. Bennet patiently.

"Let the children go to the living room, and today is a day off." James looked at Mrs. Bennet who still couldn't accept it, and simply called everyone over, anyway, everyone should know, and it was agreed once.

Mrs. Bennet still sat on the sofa and said nothing.

"Dad, Mom."

Everyone is here.Jane is already a big girl, and she takes the lead sitting on the sofa beside her. Could it be that her mother has done something again?This is what Jane thought immediately after seeing the weird atmosphere in the living room.The other kids thought the same way.It can only be said that Mrs. Bennet is still as innocent as ever, and the years have not changed her disposition, and she often does some dumbfounding things.

"You are here." James proudly looked at the children in front of him.I won't say anything about Jane, although she is still very gentle, but the housekeeper's four years of her gentleness contains firmness and determination, which is definitely not as simple as the superficial gentleness.Elizabeth is very cheerful, the pistachio of the family, and the family often bursts into laughter because of her.What James is most satisfied with is his son Matt. Matt is very smart. Since he was six years old, he has brought him by his side to learn how to be a head of the house. Matt is very sensitive to numbers and has his own views on things, even though he is still young. Small, but James believes that he will definitely lead the Bennett family forward, and what he has to do is to develop the current industry well and prepare for Matt's takeover before Matt grows up.For Mary, James and Headache, this child is simply a bookworm, or he specifically explained to Elizabeth to let her take Mary out for activities from time to time, Mary can't wait to stay in the study all day long, or her own study, a child who is only 11 years old She began to look at the books in his study, and Mrs. Bennet was most worried about the child at the moment.As for Kitty, now that she was in good health, James was relieved that she was not the child who was always sick.The last one, Lydia, James looked at her sternly, probably mischievous again, but Lydia just looked at him innocently.Seeing her like this, James thought in his heart, forget it, his daughter is very good, how could she be Lydia in the book, she is just a little naughty.

"Just one thing, that is, by September, Janet will go to Isaac's Girls' School in London." As soon as James finished speaking, all the children except Jane were very surprised, and Elizabeth, who was a bit impatient, immediately asked . "Dad, why?"

"In addition to Matt, you will also go, when you are 16 years old, for a period of two years."

Mary raised her head gently and opened her eyes wide. What do you mean, is she going too? She doesn't want to go.But looking at James's appearance, he knew that this could not be changed, so he glanced sideways at his eldest sister, and then looked down at the book in his hand.

James saw Mary's action at a glance, so he said: "Mary, put down your book, you have to listen to this matter carefully, so that you don't know what's going on then."

Matt next to him looked helplessly at his twin sister, and skillfully took the book away from Mary's hand. It seemed that he had done this many times, and Mary was also very cooperative, and the tacit understanding between the twins was always very good. OKIt's really worrying, what will happen to such a nerdy sister in the future, Matt looked at Mary who was still dumb after taking the book away, and shook his head helplessly.

After James talked about the general situation, he saw that no one wanted to say anything, and then said: "Then it's decided, Jane, you will leave the family affairs to Liz for the rest of the month. Liz has learned how to be a housekeeper." Yes, you should know how to do it."

Everyone looked at Jane, and Mrs. Bennet was the worst. She looked straight at Jane, expecting Jane to say something against it. She hadn't said anything until now, and she was reluctant, but she didn't know how to refute. James put everything It's all said and done, and she also knows that this is good for the child, but when she thinks that her daughter who has been pampered for 16 years will leave home, she thinks that her daughter will suffer.

But Jane didn't object, she just smiled and said to James: "Dad, I know." Jane already knew, Miss Glady told her, so she was ready, and, at the age of 16, It is the time to have infinite love for the outside world.

James looked at Jane with pity in his heart. When he was a child, his daughter who acted like a baby had grown up, and now he would no longer shake his hand and beg himself for forgiveness when he did something wrong like he did when he was a child.

"Sir, can it really not be changed? Do you have to go?" Mrs. Bennet is still making the last effort. Ever since she became a viscount, Mrs. Bennet has started calling James as her lord.

Before James said anything, Jane said, "Mom, it's not that I don't come back for two years, I have two vacations every year. And I will take good care of myself."

"Mom knows, but it must be very hard." Mrs. Bennet was about to cry.

James black line, do you think you are a stepdad?Why do I feel like I have a bad father who wants to push his daughter into the fire pit?

"Mom, you didn't shed any tears." Suddenly, Mary said sharply, and Mrs. Bennet was immediately stuck. She just showed her reluctance.

Everyone looked at Mary with unanimous admiration. That's great. Only a simple Mary can say that, but Mrs. Bennet will not be angry.

Mary, who ignored everyone's eyes, looked up and said, "Dad, if it's okay, can I go upstairs? And can I go to your study today?"

Mary looked straight at James, "Dad, I won't stay up late reading this time."

Mary thought that James forbade her to read in the study because she was still reading very late. Simple child, James, it was because you were about to take root in the study.

"Okay, but it's only two hours, you know? Matt, watch the time." Originally, James wanted to ask Elizabeth to supervise Mary, but thinking about briefly handing over the housekeeping to her, he probably didn't have time to take care of it. Mary is gone.
