"Liz, you are welcome." Hearing the sound of the carriage outside, Charlotte looked out the window and recognized Elizabeth at a glance. She lifted her skirt and ran out, and the two happily hugged each other.

Mr. Collins said solemnly behind them: "Welcome to the humble house."

"Hello, Cousin Collins."

"Liz, let's go in." Charlotte couldn't wait to share her happy life with her.

"My wife suggested that I spend some time in the garden every day for the sake of my health.... I dare say that every lady would be happy to have such a house."

"Honey, let my cousin keep saying, let's go upstairs like this, will it..." Elizabeth let Charlotte pull her in, but Mr. Collins looked out the window, chattering non-stop, a bit Said to Charlotte worriedly.

"It's okay, let's go in." Charlotte comforted Elizabeth with a smile, "He is like this, come in, this is my personal studio, if there is nothing wrong, he won't come in, we can have a good time Let's talk." Charlotte poured Elizabeth a glass of water.

Elizabeth took a look at the studio. The walls were blue and white. Except for one or two oil paintings, there was nothing hanging on them. There were two sofas that also seated two people. The color of the sofas was a bit dull. The fireplace was burning. With some daily necessities, this studio is always warm and comfortable.

"Oh, Liz, you know, it's really a blessing to be able to take care of the furniture in your own home." Charlotte smiled all the time, a little embarrassed, and finally shared her thoughts on married life with Elizabeth. satisfaction.

From Charlotte's words and expressions, Elizabeth can see that Charlotte is really satisfied with her current life. She has changed a lot from Longbourne now, and she has never had such a happy smile in Longbourn. .

Just as Elizabeth was about to say something, Mr. Collins suddenly called out to Charlotte, still very eager and excited.

"Charlotte, come here."

"What's wrong?" Elizabeth first looked at Charlotte, then turned to look out the window.

"Oh, what's the matter? Could it be that the pigs in the pigsty ran away again?" Charlotte thought of this possibility, stood up immediately, and walked to the window.

"What's the matter? Oh, it's Mrs. Catherine, Liz, come and take a look." Charlotte turned around and called Elizabeth happily.

"Good news, good news, very good news, Lady Catherine has invited us to Rosings Gardens." Mr. Collins was already at the window.He gasped and said happily to them.

"Oh, that's great." Charlotte took a breath first, then was ecstatic.

"Oh, Lady Catherine invited you too, Elizabeth." Mr. Collins looked at Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was surprised to confirm again with Mr. Collins.

"Yes, I'm sure, oh, Lady Catherine is definitely the most well-informed here." Mr. Collins explained Elizabeth's surprise.

"But..." Elizabeth still hesitated.

"You don't have to worry about your clothes." Collins said seriously, "Lady Catherine won't mind, Lady Catherine is a very gentle lady."

"Yeah, Liz, just put on the best clothes you brought." Charlotte also urged.

"Okay." Elizabeth wasn't in the mood to go anywhere at all, but since she was also on the invitation list, she had to go there, even if she didn't have the right clothes, who told her to bring only casual clothes this time? .As for Mr. Collins's statement that Mrs. Catherine is a mild person, she would never believe that the aunt of the serious Mr. Darcy is a mild person?

Elizabeth shook her head, trying to shake Mr. Darcy out of her mind.

"Are you the second lady of the Bennet family, Elizabeth Bennet?" Madam Catherine, who was sitting upright, asked immediately after their etiquette was completed.

"Yes, your honorable lady." As soon as Elizabeth saw Lady Catherine, she knew that this lady was definitely not a gentle person as Mr. Collins said. From the moment she stepped into Rosings Garden, Elizabeth took the education and etiquette she had received for many years into consideration. Shown, especially by Miss Letty and her studies at school, Elizabeth's manners could not be faulted by any censorious person, and likewise Lady Catherine, serious as she asked, was nonetheless serious. Showed satisfaction with Elizabeth.

"This is my daughter." Madam Catherine nodded and said to the woman sitting beside her.

"Hello, Miss De Bauer." Elizabeth greeted politely.

"How do you do?" Miss de Bower greeted the same, but did not get up.

"Anne is well unwell," Lady Catherine explained.

"Thank you for inviting us to dinner."

Suddenly, Elizabeth sensitively felt a person coming from the right, and turned her head subconsciously. It turned out to be Mr. Darcy. Elizabeth almost yelled, but she still controlled it.

The two looked at each other for a while, then saluted silently.

"Miss Elizabeth." Mr. Darcy's eyes flashed with excitement, he did not expect to see Elizabeth here.

"Oh, Mr. Darcy, I didn't expect that I would have the honor to meet you here." Mr. Collins walked in front of Mr. Darcy excitedly. Oh, the Darcy family has a great religious influence. Mr. Collins felt that I am really lucky.

Mr. Darcy glanced at Mrs. Catherine and knew in his heart that Elizabeth's appearance in Rosings Garden should be arranged by his aunt, especially after he confessed his affection for Elizabeth to his aunt.

"I don't know how many sisters there are in Elizabeth's family?" After dinner, Lady Catherine began to inquire about the Bennet family. She knew that James was a viscount, so she was very polite in her words, but no matter how polite she was, she couldn't hide her affection. Noble and arrogant.

"I have a younger brother, an older sister, and three younger sisters." Elizabeth answered simply, her eyes on Lady Catherine, even though she felt Mr. Darcy's scorching gaze on her.

"Your mother is really great." Mrs. Catherine praised her and looked at her daughter with pity. It would be great if she could have more children like Mrs. Bennet and be healthy.

"Can you play the piano, Miss Elizabeth?" Lady Catherine asked again. She decided to ask Elizabeth whether she was worthy of her nephew.

"Oh, this is what our family must know. Etiquette, playing the piano, painting, and language reading, this is what our family tutor Miss Letty must learn." Elizabeth knew what Madam Catherine wanted to ask, so she simply asked Say it all at once, Lady Catherine will ask these things like any noble lady in London.

"Oh, this is something a lady must learn. Your tutor is really an excellent tutor." Mrs. Catherine was very satisfied after hearing Elizabeth's words. At least she didn't have to worry that Elizabeth's education would not be worthy of Mrs. Darcy's position. , "How many of you ladies have come out to socialize?"

"Actually, my elder sister Jane and my younger sister Mary are both engaged. The wedding will be held soon, ma'am." Elizabeth still answered gracefully. She should really thank Miss Letty and the school for her education.

"Oh, it's really a happy thing." Mrs. Catherine showed a smile.

"My dad requires girls in our family to be 18 years old before they can socialize."

After coming out of Rosings Garden, Elizabeth smiled slightly, only to realize that in fact, socializing at the upper level only required a bit of tiring posture, and nothing else was difficult.

Tonight, Mr. Darcy has always wanted to talk to Elizabeth, but he has not found a chance. There are not many opportunities, and Elizabeth can avoid it. Therefore, Mr. Darcy said something to Elizabeth when he first met. After that, he could only watch, and just now, Mr. Darcy was left by Mrs. Catherine again, so it was useless for him to worry.

"Miss Elizabeth is worthy of the position of Mrs. Darcy." With just one sentence, Mrs. Catherine left with Miss De Bauer, and Mr. Darcy watched Mrs. Catherine leave in surprise.

"Mom, why should you?" Miss de Bower didn't understand why Lady Catherine made things difficult for Elizabeth.

"Annie, I promised your aunt this, but it's a pity you couldn't be together." Madam Catherine gently stroked her daughter's hair.

"Mom, you also know, why should my body bother others." Miss De Bauer said quietly.

"bang"

Elizabeth, who was writing a letter, was taken aback by the fact that it was Mr. Darcy.

"Mr. Darcy, where is your gentlemanly demeanor? Also, Mr. and Mrs. Collins are not here." The implication is that Mr. Darcy can go out, and Elizabeth looked out of the window again.

"It's you I'm looking for." Mr. Darcy walked in step by step.

Elizabeth did not show weakness, and also stood up to confront Mr. Darcy.

"You should still remember, where is your answer?" Mr. Darcy asked seriously. If you look closely, you can still see his nervousness. Unfortunately, at this moment, Elizabeth's mind was filled with anger.

"I don't remember anything, and I don't remember any agreement between the two." Elizabeth was annoyed when he mentioned this, "Oh, there is a rumor that Mr. Darcy is such a mean person, that he should be jealous of an accountant's son. "Elizabeth didn't believe this rumor, but at this time she said it desperately.

"Who said that, Mr. Wickham? Did he say anything else?" Mr. Darcy approached Elizabeth and asked nervously.

"Why, are you guilty? Did you do other despicable things besides this?" Elizabeth was a little worried when she saw Mr. Darcy's nervous look. Could it be that there was something inside?Otherwise, what he cares about is not what the current rumors say.

"I apologize for my haste last time," said Mr. Darcy suddenly. "Can you hear me tell a story?" said Mr. Darcy suddenly, in a low voice.

Elizabeth looked at Mr. Darcy, who was different from usual, and nodded slowly.

Mr. Darcy sat down on a stool, and slowly said: "Because the parents passed away early at home, the elder brother neglected to pay attention to the younger sister, and it was often the son of an accountant who accompanied the younger sister... Later, the son of the accountant The governess who bought my younger sister and wants to abduct her to elope."

It took about a quarter of an hour for Mr. Darcy to finish the story, and from the very beginning Elizabeth knew whom Mr. Darcy was referring to.

"I'm sorry." Elizabeth said softly.

"This is none of your business. It was done by that bastard Wickham. I should have punished him until he never dared to appear in London, that bastard." Mr. Darcy said fiercely.

"Your sister..." Elizabeth hesitated and did not continue.

"Georgianna is still very sensitive. She dare not appear in the social world. I brought Georgiana to Longbourne last time, but that bastard would show up. I immediately took her home , but she still heard that bastard's name, and Georgiana fell ill again." Mr. Darcy said sadly that he was too far away from Georgiana's age, and he would not get along with her. They are still blaming themselves for their negligence, which has caused serious consequences.

"May I go and see Georgiana?"

"Georgiana likes you very much," said Mr. Darcy, in a good mood.

"Georgiana is very quiet and kind." Elizabeth also said with a smile, she also likes Georgiana very much, Georgiana is a bit like Kitty.

"So, are you willing to be Georgiana's sister-in-law? Are you willing to marry me and become Mrs. Darcy?" This time it was a formal proposal, and Mr. Darcy was very nervous, especially the harmonious relationship these days, which made him feel , he really couldn't do without Elizabeth.

Elizabeth lowered her head shyly, "Yes, I am willing."

"My dear wife, I think we still have to prepare for Liz's wedding." Mrs. Bennet, who was so busy and dizzy, froze, unable to understand James' words for a moment.

"Oh, is that true, Dad?" Lydia exclaimed.

"Oh, God," exclaimed Mrs. Bennet, and the excitement followed.

In less than 10 minutes, everyone in the family knew that Elizabeth was engaged.

In less than half a month, everyone in Longbourne knew that the three daughters of the Bennett family were going to get married together. This was a grand event that they hadn't seen in many years, and they were counting the days and looking forward to the wedding.

James was both happy and sad that he personally delivered the dead daughter to their future lover.

After seeing off the three daughters for their honeymoon, James was completely free and didn't know what to do, especially after Matt and Lydia went to study in London, and Kitty was invited by the Gardners, When the Bennett’s house was vacant, James and Mrs. Bennett were often depressed and didn’t know what to do every day. It wasn’t until Jane came back from her honeymoon that she noticed their strange behavior and hurriedly let Kitty go home. It's better to be accompanied by home.It's a pity that Kitty didn't stay at Bennett's house for long, because Kitty also married Hand three months after Jane and the others got married.But this time, in order that James and Mrs. Bennet would not be in the same state as last time, Jane and Mary took turns inviting James and Mrs. Bennet to their new home.

"Father, there's a letter from Lydia, saying that Lydia will be graduating soon." Elizabeth came out with her belly showing a little.It happened to be at Pemberley Manor, in fact Mrs. Bennet was reluctant to part with the beautiful Pemberley Manor, and she should have set off to Mary's house long ago.

"Be careful, Liz." Mrs. Bennet quickly supported Elizabeth. This is the No. 1 grandchildren, and her reluctance to leave is also a factor.

"Dad, what did Lydia say in the letter?" James' expression was very bad, and Elizabeth asked quickly.

"Lydia, she, she, she's fine. She just went on a trip alone. She said she wanted to imitate Matt and have a graduation trip." James' face was livid, obviously very angry. .

Mrs. Bennet and Elizabeth were also surprised. They didn't expect Lydia to be so bold.

"Mr. Bennet, your letter."

"Dad, what did you write in this letter?" Elizabeth was very curious, what exactly was written in the letter that made James look better again.

"Lewis sent a letter, saying that he discovered Lydia's whereabouts by accident. He has been favored by others and will protect Lydia." Dia, a rebellious girl, just take her home.

Mrs. Bennet and Elizabeth also breathed a sigh of relief, just confirm their whereabouts.
