Pride and Prejudice: The Embarrassing Life of Miss Jane Bennett

"Why? Don't our philosophers always dislike these pulp novels?" Nicholas put away the letter in his hand and said in a somewhat blunt tone.

"Pulp Fiction? No!" John pushed his glasses and retorted, "Nicole, I like this story. Give me the address of Mr. Edge. I'm going to visit him!"

Seeing John's eager and excited look, Nicholas' eyebrows trembled.

"Don't worry, John." Nicholas' face returned to normal at this moment, and he asked with a smile: "You have to tell me why you like this story first? You know, even if many people are discussing and arguing about the plot of this story, the actual Not many people on the Internet said they liked the story."

"Don't compare me with those people." John waved his hand and said.He sat in the back armchair in front of Nicholas, put the stack of newspaper clippings on the table, finally rolled his eyes, cleared his throat, and began to say: "Nicole, no one says they like this story now, but the big Most people just can't accept this ending. I'm used to reading stories with the perfect combination of gentlemen and ladies ending, of course it's hard to accept such an ending. But, Nico, which of those beautiful stories can describe the sweetness and sourness of love It's so well done that the reader feels as if he's experiencing it, rather than looking at the story as a superior onlooker. I'm not a lady, and maybe I don't quite understand Catherine's feelings, but Nicholas, I mean the Mr. Vampire, started that The pain of enduring love but not being able to get it. And as the most noble existence in that family, who should be the most proud and reserved, but because he is afraid that Catherine will find out his true identity, he is terrified. His humbleness in front of love makes readers My heart is so sore from the story. And the confession at the end... I believe it is enough to break the hearts of ladies who like this character."

John, who usually had a hard time talking a few words, was talking non-stop at the moment, while Nicholas, who was always talkative in the past, was silent.

After listening to John's words, Nicholas also seemed to recall the stuffy feeling in his heart before.And this kind of feeling is definitely not experienced in reading love novels before.That is a real sense of substitution, not on the sidelines.

If Jian Lan heard the conversation between the two, she would probably be laughing and pounding the ground again.This is like the difference between "Pride and Prejudice" and modern novels.The love of Darcy in the original book is just a description of the beginning: "Darcy feels attracted by those bright eyes." It's over.

If you put it into modern romance, let those bloody romance authors write about Darcy's love, it is estimated that from the very beginning of love, to inner struggle, to arrogant rejection, to involuntary emotion, to jealousy and jealousy, they can all be written clearly.A look, a movement, and a demeanor all show his change of mood.Words to describe emotions and expressions, such as pampering, indulgence, nostalgia, and helplessness, are all piled up, and finally a living and abused hero is piled up, not the arrogant Mr. Darcy.

If you don’t have any sense of substitution after writing this, then the author will go back to elementary school and write the narrative again.

"Although love is a momentary thing, Mr. Aizhi let us see, read, and feel this moment. In this point alone, Mr. Aizhi has surpassed most authors, but let me appreciate it. It's not just this." John interrupted Nicholas's trance and continued.

"Is it the damn reality of this author?"

"Yes, reality. This story is almost written for those love novels that are popular now. The character of the hero and heroine, the environment in which they grew up, the background they live in, etc. are all factors that lead to the final result. Almost from the time they fell in love, The tragedy has already begun to be written. It feels as if he is following the story behind the development of the hero and heroine, rather than forcing a perfect ending for the comfort of his heart." John said with bright eyes.

Nicholas suddenly thought of Miss Bennet's letter, which said almost exactly the same thing as his cousin.

"Hmph, maybe such an ending can make him feel at ease." Nicholas said deliberately: "Maybe he wanted to pursue a lady who was higher than him but was rejected?"

"This is what I think is the most amazing and strange thing." John's eyes lit up, and he said, "Do you really know what kind of person Mr. Edge is?"

An old woman with a twisted mind... Nicholas answered in his heart.

"On love, he described all kinds of emotions more delicately than the works of ladies. But the intrigues and intrigues involved in the story are not like what ladies who discuss fashion and men all day long can write. Said he He is an aristocrat, but his writing does not have the exaggeration of the current aristocratic literature. He is said to be a well-educated commoner, but his writing has a kind of leisure that only southern squires have, but the southern squires do not have the kind of The feeling of superciliousness. To write a vampire so elegantly, charmingly and affectionately, and to use a pseudonym like Age of Aquarius, that gentleman doesn’t even pay attention to the church!"

"Conceited?!" Thinking of a letter from a certain woman, Nicholas grasped the word sensitively.

"You can't say it's supercilious." John didn't know how to describe it. "That kind of feeling is not the dignity accumulated by generations of nobles, nor the arrogance of the new nobles who are both inferior and conceited, nor the cynicism like those revolutionary youths in France who don't care about anything and want to overthrow everything. .but a kind of... a kind."

"A kind of superiority like a real outsider." Nicholas said slowly with a sullen face.

"Yes! That's it!" John clapped his hands and said.

That's it, she uses her stories to torture readers to death, but she seems to be a bystander dissociated from everything, whether it is her stories or the society reflected in her stories.

Nicholas had faintly felt this way a long time ago, but he just didn't know how to express it, and today he finally found a suitable description.

You see everything, but you don't care about anything...

What kind of old woman is this twisted into? !

Nicholas took another look at the third of the manuscript that almost killed him just now, and cursed fiercely in his heart.

Longbourne, Hertfordshire.

After waiting in fear for several days, Jian Lan finally received the letter from Caroline after she arrived in London in the original book.It's no different from the original book, that they don't plan to go back to Netherfield, and that her brother Mr. Bingley is having a hot fight with Miss Darcy, and they may be engaged soon blabla...

After seeing that letter, Jian Lan could finally go back to her room, pin a small note with the names of Mr. Darcy and Miss Bingley on the pillow, and then thumped it fiercely.

Nima!What to show off, watch out for your brother being fucked by your sweetheart!

Jian Lan was sneezed by the beating goose feathers, cursing while beating.

Hey...if only it could be like this.Even if Jian Lan doesn't want to, she still has to admit that what she crosses is not the BL version of "Pride and Prejudice" by Darcy and Bentley.

The only thing that makes Jian Lan feel very gratified is that Elizabeth does not firmly believe that Sister Caroline is really friendly to her like Jane who is possessed by Mary in the original book.Good guy cards are everywhere.

Elizabeth had always been very clear about her current situation, so she realized almost instantly how bad a marriage partner she was in the eyes of Mr. Bingley's sisters.

"Then what are you going to do, Lizzie?" Before going to bed, Jian Lan sat on Elizabeth's bed with her pillow in her arms and asked.

"Don't be so frowning, my Janet, as if you were the one who suffered the misfortune." Elizabeth pinched Jian Lan's face and said with a forced smile.

"It may not be unfortunate, maybe there is a turning point." Jian Lan recalled the original work over and over again, trying to find something to save the current situation, but the more Jian Lan thought about it, the less she dared to think about it, and she was afraid of the night Would you dream of Jane Austen holding a knife and looking at her with blood on her face...

"Jane, you are still so kind and believe that everyone is good." Elizabeth shook her head helplessly and said.

"It's not like that, Lizzie. I understand what Miss Bingley and Mrs. Hurst are thinking about." Jian Lan looked at Elizabeth and said, "I just don't want you to give up like this. After all, Mr. Bingley is really a very lovely lady." young people."

Elizabeth, who would have been a little shy when she heard Mr. Bingley, actually showed some disappointment on her face at this moment.

"Mr. Bingley is so gentle and kind," said Elizabeth, "so lovely and respectable. I don't want to belittle myself by saying he has no friendship for me. I can imagine what his sisters must have done to get me He left Netherfield. But, Janet," Elizabeth said, holding Jian Lan's hand tightly, "is love really useless in the face of reality?"

"Li Qi...don't be so pessimistic." Jian Lan silently stretched out her arms and hugged Elizabeth.

Meow's Jian Lan was aggrieved to death.She couldn't tell Elizabeth bluntly that Mr. Bingley must not be concerned about wealth, status, or gods, but must have been indoctrinated by those guys who will be beaten a hundred times with the idea of ​​"my Lizzie doesn't love me" , That's why they were dragged away so easily.

But thinking of this, Jian Lan hesitated again.

In the original novel, Mr. Bingley is an impeccable man, but this alone makes Jian Lan not like him very much.It is true that the novel has mentioned many times before how he trusts Darcy and what kind of influence Darcy has on him, but he should not listen to Darcy in this way.

Did Darcy say that if Jane didn't love him, he wouldn't love him?Feelings are such things as drinking water and knowing how warm and cold you are. Nima, do you, an outsider who still struggles with your own feelings, have the right to control others?

Before she knew it, Jian Lan beat Mr. Darcy hard in her heart again.

Little did she know that Mr. Bingley, who was despised by her now, was not entangled at all. He just used his time to prove his love to his relatives and friends, missed Elizabeth every day, and poked a knife on his good friend's heart by the way.

"Aunt Gardner invited me to go to London with her today." Elizabeth said suddenly, resting her head on Jian Lan's shoulder.

"..." Why is there a strange sense of familiarity... Jian Lan narrowed her eyes.

"I promise."

"..." Uh... In the original book, it seems that Jane went to London to relax, and then she was abused and thrown in various ways!

Lizzie, if it doesn't work, let's give up Mr. Bingley and throw yourself into Mr. Darcy's arms. You should go to the tentacle cousin's house as a guest according to the normal schedule and torture Darcy severely, okay?OK?is it good!

If it was possible, Jian Lan would really like to growl herself, shake Elizabeth violently, and yell these words at her.

At this time, Elizabeth let go of Jian Lan and said, "I will try to see Mr. Bingley again and ask him clearly."

"?" At this moment, Jian Lan didn't want to recall the different reactions between Elizabeth and Jane in the original book.

"I want to ask clearly if he really gave up on love just like that." After a pause, Elizabeth said: "If it was at the very beginning, such and such concerns are indeed natural, just like Mr. Wycombe's pursuit of gold. Miss, I can understand. But if you still retreat from this kind of thing after falling in love, then..."

Elizabeth looked into Jian Lan's eyes and said firmly, "Then I won't love him anymore, Jane, because he is not worthy of my love."

Worship~ Jian Lan's face is full of cows, she really is the Elizabeth who can torture Mr. Darcy one by one in the original book!It's not the same as the Jane Bennett who was abused by Caroline and Louisa!

The queen is mighty~!Go to London and torture those underdrawn goods to death!Ya butterfly!Uh, no, start over.Someone who wanted to watch H/anime silently cried in his heart.

God damn it, Queen Elizabeth!
