[Comprehensive Classics] Different Jane

Mr. Holmes after receiving the letter: "..."

Little Mr. Holmes seriously thought about what offended Miss Bennet when he met her last time?Why does she treat herself like this!In particular, she also attached a few small paintings at the back... Is this what the lady class is for you to use!

Little Mr. Holmes has always known himself to be a clever man, not that he despises the fools around him--oh, sorry, I accidentally said the truth--he prides himself on putting on a good show.He has been liked by everyone since he was a child, and he was the president of the student union in college, and his classmates all felt that he had a bright future, oh, in fact, he thought so too.

According to Mr. Holmes, he didn't write a letter for a few months. Generally speaking, Miss Bennet might not be able to resist writing to him first. Of course, this does not meet the standards of a lady, so he didn't receive it. The letter was no surprise.There is another possibility, which should inevitably happen in Mr. Holmes's mind, that is, he writes to Miss Bennet, no matter what she thinks, she will naturally accept what she said, and then Sympathize with his Christmas dinner, and finally chat about her own recent situation.

Don't most people write letters like this?

However, Mr. Holmes guessed the beginning, but not the end.The beginning of Miss Bennet's reply was just as Mr. Holmes thought, but after sympathizing with his Christmas dinner, Miss Bennet turned a sharp corner and suddenly talked about her own Christmas dinner.

Also written vividly!

Also wrote three big sheets of paper!

I even drew a few pictures!

"Grunt~" Little Mr. Holmes made an indecent sound from his stomach, and the older senior sitting opposite him raised his head and gave him a sympathetic look, and said, "Mr. Holmes, if you are hungry, you can start Go back to eat."

Little Mr. Holmes was about to say no, but his stomach wouldn't listen to him, "Grrrr~"

The person opposite almost laughed out loud.

Little Mr. Holmes: "..." I have never been so ashamed in my life!

Jane didn't know that her letter had dug a hole for young Mr. Holmes, and she was preparing to give an examination to some of her sisters.

Yes, it's an exam!

This winter, a few younger sisters let themselves go and visit everywhere. Fortunately, they are not yet old enough to participate in the prom, but gossiping and showing off obviously leave them no time to study.

Jane: Are you drifting away or am I unable to hold a knife?Should I publish a set of three or five papers or something?Look at me meowing you in the exam!

Jane really got a set of test papers, and she asked Mr. Holmes to find a school to get them. To the family, Jane only said that her uncle's cousin was studying, and asked her uncle to ask for them at his cousin's school.

Mr. Bennet chose an early morning on a weekend for the exam.

It was official when the paper was taken out. The paper was sealed in a paper tube, and the answer was sealed in another tube.Mr. Bennet volunteered to serve as the invigilator and grader. In the restaurant, five Miss Bennet sat around the dining table. Mr. Bennet read out the exam discipline and time, and then sent everyone a letter that matched their study schedule. The progress paper, I sat at the dining table with a book and looked at it absent-mindedly.

Outside, Mrs. Bennet was sitting at the door, knitting a scarf. Every ten minutes or so, she stuck her head in to take a look, but she didn't dare to make a sound. After all, Jane said that the exam is a very serious matter. It is also rare to get it from a serious school, and it is a waste of uncle's favor to treat him jokingly.

Mrs. Bennet thought that Jane had worked so hard as a maid in London (not) to get so many papers (not), and she felt that Jane's words were very reasonable.

"It's time." Mr. Bennet raised his hand, "Okay, girls, I'm going to collect the papers."

"Oh, wait, wait, there's a little more." Mary kept talking, and her hands didn't stop.Lydia, who was opposite her, slapped the table angrily.

"What are you doing, Lydia?" Elizabeth glared at Lydia, "Even if you can't write, don't act like this." Just now she saw Lydia biting her pen and scratching her ear and cheek.

"It's up to you!" Lydia seemed to have found a vent.

"Hey, I don't care whether you are not allowed to read or write?" Elizabeth had quarreled with Lydia because of her studies before.Elizabeth didn't like to hear Lydia's argument that looks were more important than knowledge.

Elizabeth: Am I jealous of your looks?Which one of us is more beautiful, don't you have any points in your heart?

Lydia: "..."

Lydia: "Mom! Look at Elizabeth!"

"What are you arguing about?" Without waiting for Mrs. Bennet to say anything, Mr. Bennet came over. He put away all the papers, sat in his original position, opened the answers in public, and began to correct them.

In fact, you don't need to change it to see how everyone is doing in the exam.

Jane was very calm, and discussed the topic with Elizabeth, and Elizabeth also looked confident.Mary became a little nervous. She was the last one to hand in the paper just now, which was the result of Mr. Bennet's special tolerance.Catherine doesn't care about her grades. She was a little too nervous during the exam, but now she is much more relaxed.Lydia still has to face, but she also knows that she has let herself go all winter, so she didn't read a few pages of the book.Lydia bit her nails and stared at Mr. Bennet's pen, praying, what if the luck was right?

An hour later, Mr. Bennet announced the test results with a blank face... The scores were so cruel, as if a knife had been inserted into Lydia's heart.

Meng's questions are all wrong!

Lydia: ...vomit blood! =mouth=

Even if Mr. Bennet didn't pay much attention to his daughters' studies at ordinary times, he could see the problem now.

"Jane and Liz can get double pocket money this month, Mary, you can only do the same as before, but then you have to look at your piano. Catherine and Lydia have no pocket money." Mr. Bennet's award The punishment is simple and rude.

"It's not fair!" screamed Lydia, who had already set her sights on a hairpin.

"It's fair." Mr. Bennet gave the money to the three daughters on the spot, and he said to Lydia, "Other people are learning while you are having fun, they trade time for money, and you..." He Holding up a coin, "Money for playtime. Do you have any complaints, Catherine?"

Catherine shook her head quickly.

"There will be rewards for good exams, and punishment for bad exams. I don't see any unfairness. So you, and Catherine, will have to study hard at home for the next month. Mrs. Bennet, I hope you don't privately Give them pocket money, otherwise I can only prohibit them from going out and personally supervise their studies." Although Mr. Bennet doesn't care much about family affairs, usually Mrs. Bennet can't refute what he decides.She could only look at her little daughter comfortingly, but there was nothing she could do.

Next is the examination of music and painting, which is very flexible.

Jane only guaranteed that her level had not regressed, and Elizabeth played a piece of music which was not bad.Mary played a new piece, which was one of the gifts that Jane gave her. Although she was not very fluent, she could hear that Mary had made great progress in technique.At the end of the song, everyone applauded for Mary, and she blushed with embarrassment.Catherine and Lydia are still at the bottom, instruments are like that, it's easy to regress if you don't practice.

On the painting project, Lydia finally got herself a chance to go to Meryton this month, which made her relieved.In fact, Lydia is quite talented in painting, but she has too much time to be lazy.

Catherine was at the bottom of all the previous exams, and she didn't take it seriously. Some people are not good at studying, which is natural, but Catherine lived her life in a muddle, and even Jane couldn't do anything about it.Fortunately, Catherine didn't have any ideas, but she was very obedient. Everyone studied together, and she followed suit, and she didn't feel any hard work.

The correspondence between Jane and Mr. Holmes has increased, and sometimes Jane does not understand why Mr. Holmes has such a good interest in writing to her. She is sure that she has not said any strange remarks, nor What shocking opinions have been expressed, why such a smart person like Mr. Holmes...has been communicating with her, this is really a mystery~

In any case, the correspondence between Jane and Mr. Holmes increased, which attracted the attention of the family.Before Jane could react to this matter, Mr. Holmes Jr. had ordered her a newspaper in London.

Jane was a little puzzled when she received the newspaper. She flipped through the newspaper from beginning to end, and finally read the friend-making advice section of the newspaper, thinking that she should have understood what Mr. Holmes meant.

Well, isn't it just to make everyone think that they met through newspapers?Why are you beating around the bush like this, and she has already found a good reason, okay, the day lily will be cold when you come.

Jane: Hehe...

But Jane intends to make good use of this excuse.

"So it's like this~" Mrs. Bennet had an expression of enlightenment on her face.

"I want it too, I want to make pen pals too~" Several little Miss Bennets gathered around to watch.

Several little Miss Bennets lay on the table and treated this matter very carefully. They copied down the names of all suitable partners, of course they were all women, and gathered together to study who they would choose to be their pen pals. .For the first time, they discovered that there is still such a way to understand the outside world.

"You've been squandering your money again, Jane." Mrs. Bennet was thinking in another direction.

"It's just a year's newspaper, and they will collect many issues of the newspaper and send it at once, with only one stamp." This is also the reason why news is always slow in this era, and it is difficult for the newspaper of the day to be delivered to people outside London.

"Dear Mrs. Bennet, didn't we say that the children's pocket money can be spent as they like. Besides, the whole family can read the simple newspapers, and learn about new things in London. You also have topics to talk about." Talk to other wives, don’t you?” Mr. Bennet shook the newspaper in his hand with great satisfaction, and felt that it was good to be able to read the news in London, even though some of the news was a few days ago... Why didn’t he Thought of this idea?

Jane also suddenly discovered that she and Mr. Holmes can talk about more things, which may be one of the reasons why Mr. Holmes sent her a special newspaper.

Jane didn't realize that although she had made all the psychological preparations to adapt to this era, she often revealed her true thoughts when writing letters to Mr. Holmes, which made Mr. Holmes very curious. In any case, he reasoned, he couldn't think of any country gentleman's family that could raise a girl like Jane.

Jane finally finished copying the notes. She roughly checked whether there were any differences between the notes and what was written in Mr. Holmes' letter, and then began to study the contents of the letter in detail.

The author has something to say: Jane: It is still so troublesome to make a pen pal

The author is a very superficial person, I like to see everyone’s good (long) comments, like everyone’s likes, like everyone’s small votes and throw small Leilei, o(*￣▽￣*)ゞ all of a sudden there are so many The encouragement of the same (eat) good (goods) gave the author the motivation to code~~~

Ah~ It's so strange, it seems that the name of a cute thing has changed, but there are new cute things added~o(*￣▽￣*)o
