In fact, they were not too late when they arrived at the ball, at least Mr. Bingley, the protagonist of tonight, had not arrived yet.The dance party was very lively, the two teams in the middle were dancing together, everyone had bright smiles on their faces, the band played cheerful music, and the people sitting and standing beside them were chatting happily.

As soon as the Bennets entered, Mr. Lucas greeted them.

"Oh, my friend, you are here at last. Tonight is really a lively night. Everyone is very happy. You will also feel it. And beautiful Jane, Elizabeth and Mary, let's dance tonight." Lu Mr. Cass was very happy. As the host of tonight's dance, he felt honored to have so many people come to join him.

"Oh, my friend, it looks like you're really happy tonight." James smiled. Speaking of which, Mr. Lucas was also a friend compared to what he said.

The three Jane sisters bowed to Mr. Lucas and stood aside.

"Ah, yes, Mr. Lucas, tonight is really lively." Mrs. Bennet agreed, "I heard that the new Mr. Bingley will also come to the ball, hasn't he arrived yet?" Mrs. Turt looked around, but saw no one she wanted to see.

"Ah, yes, Mr. Bingley hasn't arrived yet, but he'll be here in a moment, he's such a lovely young man, and by the way, there's a great man coming with Mr. Bingley in a moment. "Mr. Lucas said in a mysterious way, but he had to say that this was still effective, and Mrs. Bennet immediately asked.

"Oh? An important person? What kind of important person is he? Are you single?" Mrs. Bennet said with bright eyes, completely unable to see the helpless eyes of James and Jane.

"Oh, yes, Mrs. Bennet. You have heard of the Darcy family. Mr. Darcy will come later, Mr. Darcy from Derbyshire, a really rich bachelor." Mr. Lucas said in an exaggerated way voice said.

"Mr. Darcy?" said James.

"It's Mr. Darcy who is very powerful in the church." Lucas' tone was full of admiration.

Netherfield to let, Mr. Bingley, Mr. Darcy.James remembered, time flies so fast, it's time for the plot to develop in the book.But James didn't have anything to worry about. Although his butterfly wings didn't blow away these things, things have actually changed, so let's let it go.

"Oh, that's great." Mrs. Bennet was about to jump up, two rich bachelors.

"Mom and Dad, we want to go there." Elizabeth knew intuitively that if she stayed any longer, her mother might yell at them here to make them seize the opportunity, even though her mother hadn't done anything embarrassing outside. Well, the embarrassing things all happened at home, but everyone knows that she has been very nervous about her sister's marriage recently, and she should put an end to even a little possibility.

"Well, go." James agreed immediately, and took another look at Jane, believing that Jane would take good care of the two younger sisters.

Jane took Elizabeth and saluted again before leaving.

Lucas took James and Mrs. Bennet into their social circle, and then left again. He is the host tonight, and he can't stay with James all the time.

Mrs. Bennet also found the organization, leaving James to happily exchange the latest news with a group of wives.

"Master Viscount, hello."

"Hello." James replied briefly and politely to him. The others obviously knew James' habits and continued to chat with James, not minding James' indifference.

"I saw you in London last time. I didn't know you would come back to Longbourn so early. It will be more lively if we come back together."

"I've lived in London for a long time, and I miss Longbourn." James shook the red wine in his hand, smelled it, but didn't drink it. He was really more and more picky. He hadn't drunk this kind of red wine for a long time, and he didn't plan to drink it now. drink.Speaking of London, I think of William Robert in London. He specially asked people to check him, count the days, and the news will almost come back.

"Well, Longbourne is a good place. Our grandparents have lived in Longbourne for generations. There is no place better than Longbourne, not even London." Another person beside him also got involved.

The three Jian sisters sat down together, watched the lively scene, and were also infected by the lively atmosphere of the scene.

"Ah, it's so lively. Do you want to go dancing?"

After rejecting the dancer, Jane asked Elizabeth, who was watching happily, and Mary, who was obviously in a daze.

"I won't go, just watch, have you forgotten what I'm mainly here for tonight?" Elizabeth then said teasingly: "Jane, if you don't go to dance, your gentle reputation may come tomorrow." It will be said to be some kind of arrogance, you know..." Both of them knew what the rest of the words meant.

Jane quietly rolled her eyes, "It's boring." As she spoke, she nudged the dazed Mary with her elbow.

"Mary, pay attention to your image, you've been in a daze for long enough."

"Ah, oh, when will the dance end?" Rubbing her eyes, holding back the yawn that was about to yawn.

"It's just started. Strictly speaking, it hasn't started yet." Elizabeth said relentlessly, "Cheer up, Mom is watching us."

The three sisters immediately made the most perfect appearance.

"So you are here, no wonder I can't find you." It was Charlotte Lucas who came.

"Charlotte, let's sit together." Jane took Charlotte's hand, and Charlotte sat down.

"Guess what news I just heard?"

"What? Could something good happen?" Elizabeth said anxiously. In other words, Jane and Charlotte played well when they were young, but Elizabeth and Charlotte played the best when they grew up. The generation gap is between them. It didn't show up on me.

"It's not about those men. I just heard them talking secretly again. I bet who can get your first dance tonight." Charlotte said in a low voice.

"Oh, it's no wonder there was so much traffic coming over to invite us to dance just now, hum." Elizabeth glanced at the betting man with disdain.

"Never mind what they do." Jane said flatly, just remembered those people, and treated them as if they were invisible in the future.

Suddenly the music stopped, the dancers stopped dancing, and the chatter stopped chatting.

What happened?The four of Jane followed people's eyes, and it turned out that the protagonists of tonight had arrived. Although they were not the hosts of the ball, they were undoubtedly the protagonists of tonight.

At the door, there were three people, two men and one woman.One man was smiling all over his face, and the other man had a gloomy face, oh, who owed him a lot of money?The only woman, looked at everyone arrogantly, hiding deep contempt.The people in front didn't make a sound, just watched silently, while the people behind raised their necks, watched curiously, and whispered to each other from time to time.

Mr. Lucas stepped forward, nodded to the three guests, and said to the black-haired man in the middle, "It's great of you to come."

The three guests also nodded to Mr. Lucas.

"Is that Mr. Bingley who smiles so stupidly like a peacock?" Elizabeth turned her head and asked Charlotte. She still remembered what her mother said that Mr. Bingley was always smiling.

"Yes, the one on the right is Mr. Bingley, and the one on the left is his sister." Charlotte said in a low voice, and Jane and Mary also watched with concern and nodded.

"What about the one next to him? It's the one with the dark face and strange eyebrows."

"That's his good friend Mr. Darcy."

At this time, Mr. Lucas had already led them in. Mr. Darcy stared straight ahead blankly. Mr. Bingley still looked at the crowd with a smile on his face. Miss Bingley was still walking proudly. Contemptuous eyes glanced at the people present. The people here are dressed in down-to-earth clothes. I really don't know why my brother wants to go on vacation here. Miss Bingley is full of resentment.

"He looks miserable, poor man." Elizabeth was still talking to Charlotte about the three, saying that Mr. Darcy was pitiful, but without any sympathy.

"He may be in pain, but he's not pitiful," Charlotte whispered.

"Tell me quickly." Elizabeth asked curiously, could this be someone with a story?

"I heard that he earns [-] pounds a year and owns half of Derbyshire." Charlotte leaned closer to Elizabeth's ear and said.

Jane was also very curious, and turned her head to lean over from time to time. Only Mary still didn't care what happened around her.

"It's a miserable half-Derbyshire," teased Elizabeth, and both Charlotte and Jane chuckled.

The three Darcys approached, and Jane and the others suppressed their smiles and curtseyed along with the crowd. Elizabeth boldly and secretly looked at Mr. Darcy.Oh, sure enough, the eyebrows are all tangled together.

Sensing the abnormal sight, Mr. Darcy looked along his line of sight, and suddenly met Elizabeth's eyes. Elizabeth's eyes widened in surprise, and then she lowered her head again, like a frightened cat. Mr. Darcy was pleased by Elizabeth's reaction Now, the stiff expression on his face softened a little, and he wouldn't have noticed it if he wasn't familiar with him.Miss Bingley found out, but Mr. Darcy quickly recovered. She didn't find the source, but she hated Longbourne even more in her heart.

After the three of Darcy passed by, Elizabeth was stunned by the accident just now, and then burst out laughing. She thought that Mr. Darcy must be an interesting person.

When the three of Darcy came to the end, everyone could watch as much as they wanted, and the music played again. After watching it, everyone went to dance happily, and the lively scene just now resumed. They just observed the three of Darcy from time to time. What will happen.

Mrs. Bennet was very satisfied with Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy, she turned to James anxiously and said, "My good lord, you must introduce our daughter to them."

James looked to the side and was still paying attention to the daughters of Darcy and the three, especially the escaping Elizabeth. Could it be that they are really a natural pair, or why would they pay so much attention.Elizabeth seemed to be watching what Mr. Bingley was saying to Jane.I took another look at Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy in the distance. Mr. Bingley smiled like a peacock, and Mr. Darcy still had a stinky face. James was dissatisfied. What kind of expressions are these, so I can’t be normal of?

Mrs. Bennet didn't care about James's ecstasy, but she just pulled him through the crowd and walked to Jane and the others.

"Come with me, oh, Charlotte is here, come together." Although Mrs. Bennet was not satisfied that Charlotte was there, she still wanted to invite her to go with her.

"Yes, Mom."

Mrs. Bennet pulled Jane and walked towards Mr. Darcy with a smile on her face. James followed behind and pulled Mary who was obviously out of condition.

"Mary." Mrs. Bennet called Mary in a low warning voice, and looked at Mr. Darcy and the others with a smile.

Mr. Lucas smiled and said to Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy: "This is Viscount Bennet."

Mr. Darcy and Mr. Bingley came down, nodded to James, and said, "Good day, Mr. Bennet."

Miss Bingley was a bit reluctant, but after Mr. Bingley's analysis, she also knew that she could not act willfully now, so she walked down and curtsied to James with a blank expression.

"Hello, Mr. Darcy, Mr. Bingley and Miss Bingley." James nodded friendly, observing that Mr. Darcy was still stern and arrogant, but not just for him, Mr. Bingley's face His smile grew wider, but what Miss Bingley meant, he could feel the faint hostility.

"This is my daughter Charlotte, as you all know." Mr. Lucas continued to introduce, and Charlotte bowed quietly.

"This is Mrs. Bennet, Miss Jane Bennet, Miss Elizabeth and Miss Mary."

Mrs. Bennet nodded, Jane and the others politely greeted each other, then looked up at Darcy and the others at close range.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. I have two daughters and a son who are studying in London." Mrs. Bennet said proudly. She was lucky to marry a good husband in her life and gave birth to five beautiful daughters With a clever son, this is a good heir to the Bennet family, and Mrs. Bennet has always been proud of the excellence of her children.

"Nice to meet you." Seeing that Darcy was silent, Bingley hastily made amends and touched Darcy at the same time.

When Darcy heard Elizabeth's name, he stared at Elizabeth closely, and recognized the girl who was looking at him just now, thinking that the chubby girl had become beautiful.

Miss Bingley stared at the three Jane sisters gloomyly. She knew that this was her threat. The daughters of the Bennet family are all excellent, and their families and education are better than hers. She must prevent Mr. Darcy from contacting them. .
