[Comprehensive Classics] Detective Mary

In all fairness, anyone could see that Mr. Bingley was absolutely unwilling to leave Netherfield Park.Who would move away in the blink of an eye after communicating with their sweetheart just now?

But the reality does not allow Mr. Bingley to focus on the love of his children.

Seeing that someone wanted to destroy his investment business, it was the end of the new year, and it was the busiest time for the factory.It is more important to track down the culprit and take good care of your investment.

If there is no factory and capital, how can he be qualified to marry the beautiful Miss Jane Bennet?

Therefore, after conveying the clues of Mr. Holmes, Mr. Bingley came to the door again the next day.But this time it was much more solemn, and he came to say goodbye, so Mr. Bingley's two sisters came to Longbourne together.

"It happened suddenly," Mr. Bingley said with great reluctance, "I had to leave first, but it was only for a while."

The words were addressed to Mr. Bennet, but Mr. Bingley's eyes could not stop flicking to Jane.

Mr. Bennet nodded: "You are free to come and go, and you don't need to explain to me when you leave Netherfield Manor."

Mrs. Bennet became anxious when she heard this.

How can this work!You must know that Mr. Bingley has confessed his love to Jane, and after he has made up his mind, he should enter the stage of discussing the wedding.But now it happened by accident.

At this moment, Mrs. Bennet really hated those bad guys who tried to manipulate the market.Although she doesn't know what the market is or isn't, Mrs. Bennet still understands the simple truth - wouldn't it be nice for everyone to be a kind and decent person like Mr. Bingley?

"When are you coming back, Mr. Bingley?" Mrs. Bennet asked impatiently.

"I think about three or four months," replied Mr. Bingley, "as soon as I can."

"As soon as possible."

Mrs. Bennet complained quite dissatisfied: "It takes too long to leave, Jane will be rumored. What if others think she was abandoned by you?"

Elizabeth: "Mom!"

I was really afraid of something. Elizabeth was afraid that her mother, Mrs. Bennet, would say something inappropriate.

If you say this, where should Jane save her face? !Those who don't know think that Jane hates marrying. Doesn't this make the ladies of the Bingley family despise her?

But the good-tempered Mr. Bingley didn't care. Now he was in a more anxious mood than Mrs. Bennet.

"I will," promised Mr. Bingley earnestly, "when I get back I will discuss the wedding with Jane...."

When Jane heard this, her beautiful face immediately turned bright red.When she met Mr. Bingley's sight, she hurriedly lowered her head, but the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a sweet smile.

so good.

When Mary saw Jane's happy appearance, she couldn't help but feel happy—she was happy for Jane from the bottom of her heart. The kindest and most beautiful elder sister and her lover finally got married, saving unnecessary troubles and misunderstandings. Happiness is close at hand, what could be better than that?

I don't believe that Miss Bingley can do anything to break up her brother's marriage.

Thinking of this, Mary also raised a smile: "Wouldn't it be that we can welcome the wedding when the spring begins!"

Jane scolded, "Mary!"

Then Mr. Bingley spoke a few words with Mr. Bennet, and then went straight up to Jane, and began talking to her eagerly and politely.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the bored Miss Bingley suddenly found Mary.

She walked in front of Mary with a polite smile on her face, and said in an intimate tone, "I'm really reluctant. I've only been with you for a short time, and I think you're such an amazing girl."

Or not!

Mary said indifferently: "There will be many days to see you later, won't you?"

Miss Bingley: "That's true."

As she spoke, she took Mary's hand, lowered her voice like a good sister, and said furtively: "It's a pity that Mr. Darcy is leaving with us, but don't worry, I will definitely tell you more in front of him. A few kind words, lest he see more talented women in London and forget you."

Mary: "..."

She was wrong. Miss Bingley's attitude towards her "rival in love" was not at all that of an adolescent junior high school student. She was obviously a primary school student, okay?

However, since we have to separate.

Seeing that although her original intentions were not very good, but in the face of providing a lot of "help" when she started writing, Mary felt that it was better not to bully her.

So she pretended to be surprised and widened her eyes: "What do you do to help me speak nicely to Mr. Darcy?"

"Don't pretend to be confused," Miss Bingley teased, "I don't understand your thoughts?"

"what?"

"It's not shameful to fall in love with Mr. Darcy, many ladies like him."

"what?"

Mary put on a dazed expression: "I like Mr. Darcy, where did you hear that? But don't listen to rumors, Miss Bingley, I only talked to Mr. Darcy because he was friends with Sherlock Holmes ah!"

Miss Bingley: "..."

Miss Bingley, who was trying to sympathize with the enemy and "make friends", was taken aback when she heard the words, she blinked, and then understood.

——It turns out that I have misunderstood all along!

When the thieves broke into the Netherfield Manor, it was not only Mary Bennet who was eager to help, but also Elizabeth Bennet.

Thinking of Mr. Darcy's attitude, Miss Bingley suddenly realized: what he admires is not Mary at all, but her clever and charming sister!

After realizing this, she only felt that her cheeks were burning like an explosion and became scorching hot.As for Mary, she looked unaware, and even held Miss Bingley's hand enthusiastically: "Since you are going to London, you might see Mr. Holmes, so you must ask him how he is doing and write to Me, don't forget!"

Miss Bingley looked as if she wanted to withdraw her hand, and she almost turned away in embarrassment.

Hearing Mary's words, she regained her senses and responded calmly: "Uh, um, of course I will, of course I will!"

Omg.

Seeing that she was at a loss, her eyes dodged, and she was blushing almost to catch up with Jane but still trying to force herself to be calm, Mary almost burst out laughing in her heart.

The brave girl is actually a bit cute, but it's a pity that Mr. Darcy really has no idea about her, no matter how girlish and jealous he is, it's useless.

Mary still didn't forget to add maliciously: "Then this is a secret between the two of us, you can't tell others, I only tell you when you are a good friend!"

The tone of her words was sincere, and she showed her heart and soul, which made Miss Bingley feel even more guilty, and wished to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

"I, I, I, I promise you!"

Miss Bingley coughed a few times, and finally regained her normal tone: "It's our secret, I won't forget it."

After speaking, he left Longbourne with his brother in embarrassment.

However, this walk is indeed quite different from the situation in the original book.

With Mr. Bingley's promise, not only Mrs. Bennet was satisfied, but the whole of Longbourne became more energetic because of it.

During the period, even Elizabeth unceremoniously rejected Collins' confession, and Mr. Collins proposed to Elizabeth's friend Charlotte instead, which did not affect Mrs. Bennet's mood at all.

This joyous atmosphere has been maintained until Christmas.

Every Christmas, Mrs. Bennet's younger brother, Mr. Gardiner, and his wife come to Longbourne from London to visit, and this year is no exception.

As soon as she saw the Gardners, Mrs. Bennet vividly told how sweet Mr. Bingley and Jane were, and wished to write letters every day to ease the pain of lovesickness. Jane blushed and even asked her mother to stop.

The gentle and intelligent Mrs. Gardner loved these nieces very much. Seeing Jane's shy face was moving, she couldn't help but smiled and said, "That's a good thing."

Jane blushed: "Mom's words are too exaggerated."

Elizabeth: "That's not necessarily true. The onlooker knows. My dear, I think my mother's words are euphemistic."

Jane: "You and Mary just got too close, and you look more and more like her."

Mary:? ?

Mary, who was sitting next to Elizabeth, was unhappy when she heard the words, and couldn't help being coquettish: "How do you look like me? If I make fun of you, do you think you can still sit here? You would have run away in embarrassment! "

Jane was taken aback, and immediately laughed out loud.

Mrs. Gardner could not help but put on a look of kindness when she saw the unmarried girls laughing and making a fuss.Jane's lovesickness and nostalgia hang brightly on her face, who can't see it?

She thought for a while, and said directly: "If that's the case, why not wait until Christmas is over, you can live with us in London for a while, and you can meet Mr. Bingley, so as to relieve the pain of lovesickness and change your mood at the same time."

Elizabeth: "That's a good idea! But I think..."

Mrs. Gardner: "What?"

Elizabeth's eyes rolled and fell on Mary.

She pretended to be mysterious and put on a straight face: "Jane is not the only one suffering from lovesickness, Madam, after Christmas, it is best to bring another lady to accompany Jane."

Mrs. Gardner was amazed: "Which of my good nieces still have sweethearts in London?"

Mr. Bennet understood.

It was rare for him to put down the newspaper: "I don't know who Mary's sweetheart is, but the 'City of Heart' must be London, you must take her away so that I won't be harassed by her again, and I have to buy something from London." Popular newspapers and books are not acceptable."

Mrs. Gardner couldn't help but shook her head: "If that's the case, it's fine to say no? After Christmas, Jane and Mary will come back to London with us."

Mary: "..."

and many more? !

It wasn't until this moment that Mary, who had been careless before, finally realized what they meant.

Can she go to London now? ? ?It's that easy? ? ?
