[Comprehensive Classics] Different Jane
Chapter 13
This requirement can actually be said to be too much. In British families, property is in the hands of the male owner.Checking the books is equivalent to liquidating the family's property. Even a male heir can only access this piece after the male owner inspects and trusts him.Because this move is tantamount to implying the recognition of inheritance rights.
Mr. and Mrs. Bennet know this, and Jane knows it, but Elizabeth and Mary don't. They just want to do something for their father.
"Okay, this matter..." Before Mrs. Bennet finished speaking, Mr. Bennet interrupted suddenly, "There is no rush for this matter, you can take an hour a day to do it."
"Great~" Elizabeth cheered.
"Honey!" cried Mrs. Bennet, "how can a child do this?"
"It's okay, my dear wife." Mr. Bennet thought very openly. Anyway, the law stipulates that Jane and the others cannot inherit these lands. If you want to learn, you can learn it, just to make your daughters happy.
Mrs. Bennet quickly thought of this, and she changed her expression a few times in annoyance, and changed the topic.
"Well, Dad's gift is that, and then I don't have a gift?" Mrs. Bennet asked deliberately dissatisfied.
"Of course, Mommy." Smiling, Jane took out another small paper bag tied with a bow.
"Really, oh, cutie, thank you." Mrs. Bennet didn't expect that she really had a gift. She happily took it and opened it. Inside the wrapping paper was a hand-stitched pin bag.The colorful fabrics form a big flower pumpkin, and there is a base underneath, which is very cute.Mrs. Bennet pinched it, it rustled inside, and it felt very special.
"It's hair." Jane said, "We collected the hair from the comb, but it wasn't enough, so we each cut a small strand for the inner liner, which can prevent the needle tip from rusting." Don't underestimate the small needle, every year It is also an expense.
"Oh." Although cutting hair is not advisable, Mommy is always easily moved, "Thank you, it will definitely be useful." Mrs. Bennet always felt that it was her lifelong regret not to have a son, but the five daughters He always uses his own way to make her feel that this kind of regret is actually not important.
"One more thing, I think it can be a Christmas present." Mr. Bennet took out a letter. "Your aunt, our Mrs. Gardner, is pregnant again. This is from your uncle. Letter, received this morning."
"Really? Great!" Elizabeth cheered.
"We're going to have a brother or sister again," said Jane.
"Really? Really?" Lydia was the youngest, and she always wanted to be the older sister.
"You have to study hard, Lydia, so that you will have the opportunity to teach your little brother later." Mary said to Lydia.
"Oh, it's a good thing I'm already an older sister." Catherine doesn't like studying.
Mary was about to be annoyed by Catherine, "Catherine, you can't lose to Lydia."
Catherine: -________-
After Christmas, Mr. Bennet called Jane into his study, ready to show her the account book, even as he said.
Jane did not expect Mr. Bennet to open up the account books of the previous few years to her very directly. Jane and Mr. Bennet looked through them together, and only took the account books of the last three years.
"If you can come to help me, then I will definitely feel a lot easier." Mr. Bennet was quite happy.
Soon Jane understood why Mr. Bennet was so happy.
...too fucking messy.
Jane didn't even know that Mr. Bennet did this, though she had peeped before.
Mistakes in records are very common. Judging from the comparison between the fragmented record sheet and the account book, Mr. Bennet has copied the wrong numbers carelessly several times. The strange thing is that he didn't even check it, so he just took the wrong number I have been memorizing it.There are also omissions, miscalculations, and the numbers on the top are written on the bottom... The most bizarre thing is that even though there are many mistakes, Mr. Bennet still racked his brains to settle the account...
simple:"……"
Do you still have to operate your own account like this?Jane was also drunk. -______-
It took several months for Jane, Elizabeth and Mary to figure out Mr. Bennet's accounts for the past three years.When they proudly handed over the clean accounts to the overjoyed Mr. Bennet, Valentine's Day has passed, St. Patrick's Day has passed, Easter has passed, and even April Fool's Day has passed... Spring plowing is over, summer coming soon.
It will be May Day in a few days. Mr. Bennet has dug a small tree and planted it in front of his house. The Miss Bennets will bring some flowers back to decorate it every day when they go for a walk.Last year's harvest in the village was mediocre. This year everyone is going to hold a grand May Festival for a bumper harvest, so the village has been very lively recently.
The teenage girls are running for May Queen, and the little girls are going to make a big garland for the holiday.
Every family attaches great importance to this festival, and Mrs. Bennet specially made a new skirt for each of her daughters, which can be said to be very generous.However, the rest of the decorations and belts depend on everyone's "collection". For example, Lydia, who doesn't know too much about women's work, has been begging Mrs. Bennet to buy one for her.
"Please Mommy, buy me a ribbon." Lydia had been pestering Mrs. Bennet since morning.
Mrs. Bennet was very busy, "Lydia, didn't I buy it for you before?"
"But that's not for May Day." Lydia said plausibly.
But until the end Mrs. Bennet did not agree to buy a new ribbon for Lydia, but Elizabeth agreed to lend her one to Lydia for a day.
"That's not bad." Lydia was also very happy.
May Day is a paradise for little friends, no matter what they do today, they will not be scolded.
In a blink of an eye, Jane suddenly found that Catherine and Lydia were gone.
"Where are Catherine and her two?" Jane asked Mary.
"I think the two of them have gone to the bathroom." Mary answered absent-mindedly, holding up a small wildflower.
There are no toilets around here, and everyone usually finds a random place in the wild to solve the problem.
"What, the two of them haven't come back yet? It's about to start sex." Elizabeth looked around anxiously. People had already started to gather, and the huge garland had also been carried to the designated place, and they couldn't even look at it now. The Bennets are nowhere to be seen.
"Let's look for it, Mary, where did you see them go?" Jane quickly made a decision.
"there."
So the three sisters ran to the field outside the crowd. Fortunately, they soon found the other two little sisters on the ridge... They were hiding behind a bush with their buttocks up, peeking at something.
The three sisters touched it, and it turned out that there were two people who were carrying out the Great Harmony Movement of Life... What! ?
After only one glance at the three of them, he tacitly covered the eyes of the younger sisters, dragged them out, and ran away.
At this time, the battle had already started, and the five sisters walked slowly behind the team panting.
"Don't you think that man looks familiar?" After a while, Elizabeth spoke first.Jane glared at her, and looked around calmly. Fortunately, they were already behind the crowd at this time, and no one nearby heard them talking.
"He's the eldest son of the Wynn family, with freckles all over his face." Lydia pouted, she is a face control, but only for men, "That woman is the daughter of the milkman's family, I don't know her name what."
"Wynn? Georgia Wynn? Isn't he pursuing Charlotte?" Elizabeth whispered angrily, "How could he do this!"
No one said anything this time.
In fact, not to mention the little girls, they know it well, isn't it just that Charlotte is not pretty?
Jane saw it more clearly. In the past, Wynn's family could only be regarded as rich farmers who made their fortunes by growing grapes. They gradually started to work as wine middlemen. The family could only be regarded as a small fortune, just like everyone else. The family wants to get rid of the identity of farmers.
Lucas also started out as a businessman, but after he turned to politics, he actually got a title, which is unusual. Although he is not as prosperous as he was back then, he is still one of the best in the village.
That's why Georgia Wynn went after Charlotte.
Jane thought very indifferently that she was not optimistic about this marriage from the beginning. The marriage between Charlotte and Georgia was actually a kind of "marrying down". And the Lucas family will be laughed at all their lives.So at the beginning, Jane didn't think that the Lucas family would allow this marriage, but she didn't expect that after the news about Georgia Wynn's pursuit of Charlotte, the Lucas family didn't respond, and Jane knew this. It's not easy.
But Elizabeth didn't know this, she was simply outraged by Georgia's behavior, and decided to tell Charlotte about it.
Compared with the unfamiliar Georgia Wynn, Charlotte Lucas is not only the child of Bennet's neighbor, but also the elder sister who has played since childhood. The Miss Bennet must be towards her.
Not only Elizabeth, but other girls also agreed to tell Charlotte the truth, but Jane raised her eyebrows and refused to participate.
Charlotte's brain wasn't as ordinary as she looked, and Jane didn't think she really didn't know Georgia Wynn's true face, but it was a good excuse for Charlotte to get rid of Georgia Wynn, and Jane didn't mind making her owe her a favor.
Sure enough, Charlotte didn't show too much surprise or anger when she found out about this incident. She still gently thanked Elizabeth who told her about it.
Not long after that, Jane heard that Georgia Wynn was a heartless man with two legs, and that the Lucas family was not as rich as everyone thought, and his poor ordinary-looking eldest daughter could not marry at all. Rumors of going out.
It can be said that both sides were hurt.
But these have nothing to do with the Bennet family. At most, Jane thinks that Charlotte still has a conscience for not revealing that the "informer" is Miss Bennet.
The author has something to say: Mr. Bennet: Anyway, the family property cannot be given to the daughter, so it’s okay to see it.
Mrs. Bennet: My husband is too doting on his daughter.
Jane: Is this serious?
Elizabeth: So excited~!
Mary: Looking for something to do.oh.jpg
Catherine: ...
Lydia: What happened?
Mr. and Mrs. Bennet know this, and Jane knows it, but Elizabeth and Mary don't. They just want to do something for their father.
"Okay, this matter..." Before Mrs. Bennet finished speaking, Mr. Bennet interrupted suddenly, "There is no rush for this matter, you can take an hour a day to do it."
