[Comprehensive Classics] Different Jane

The next day, Mycroft found that Jane was indeed overly nervous, um... the specific manifestation was that she was still muttering the meeting language when she was sitting in the carriage.

"I'm Jane Bennett, nice to meet you..."

"...Jane, relax."

"I call you relax...don't make trouble!"

Jane glared at the troublesome Mycroft, and Mycroft looked up at the sky. He took a breath and said to Jane, "Jane, you are beautiful today."

"Hope you guys like... um? What?"

"I said you are beautiful today, you are so beautiful."

"Oh, thanks."

"Did you get that dress in Cambridge? The gold trim goes with the color of your hair."

Jane looked down. The puff-sleeved white dress she was wearing today was very simple in style, but she embroidered one on the neckline with gold embroidery thread, embroidered two parallel laces on the front of the skirt, and tied tassels of the same color underneath. Afterwards, the skirt looks kind of special.

"I bought the skirt before, but I embroidered the gold part myself."

Jane's dress was worn on such an important occasion, and she is still wearing the first gift that Mycroft gave her today, which is the little golden hair comb, and apart from that, there is only a cross necklace around her neck .

In order to make her look better, Jane also put on nude makeup. Today's social atmosphere does not advocate young women's makeup. It is generally believed that young women's makeup is like being called a "Miss" by later generations, so the simplification is very cautious.

"It's so cute, it reminds me of the first time I saw you."

"What was I like then?"

"I'm thinking about how such a beautiful and lovely little girl is sitting here alone, what if she is taken away by bad guys, how dangerous it is."

"So you show off your Latin and laugh at my missionary school accent?"

"Uh..." Mycroft laughed dryly twice, "You still remember."

"Of course I remember." Jane gave Mycroft a quick shot, "I'm the one who saw you when you fell off your own horse."

After making jokes like this, Jane really didn't feel so nervous anymore.

The old house where Holmes and his wife live is a large house with a very beautiful garden, a special greenhouse, and a stable, which is the envy of Mycroft, whether it is the house that Mycroft is renting now or he is married. The place where he lived was far away from the place where he went to work, so he hired a carriage, which was not a small expense.

"You are welcome, Jane."

Compared with a few years ago, the Holmes couple have not changed much, except that there are more fine lines on the face, Mr. Holmes' hairline has moved back, and Mrs. Holmes has gained weight... Ah, don't worry about this. (⊙ω⊙)

"I finally see you, my dear." Mrs. Holmes still retained the enthusiasm of the French. She hugged Jane, "You are so beautiful today."

"Thank you, Mrs. Holmes." Jane bowed her head slightly and smiled.

Standing aside, Holmes and his son looked at the two ladies, and suddenly had the same thought in their hearts: they are really alike.

Both Mrs. Holmes and Jane have blond hair, blue eyes and sweet looks, with a hint of innocence in their expressions, especially when they smile, they both have crooked brows and eyes, and they really look alike at first glance.

Or how could it be the father and son, they look alike when looking for a partner.

The mood is very subtle in common.

"Hello, Sherlock."

"Welcome, Jane."

In order to show caution, even Sherlock was specially called back.

"This is my little idea, I hope you like it." Jane handed the box to the maid standing next to her, "I made the cake myself."

"It must be wonderful, you don't know, and Sherlock is always praising your workmanship in his letters, which makes Mycroft very angry."

"I don't 'always' say that in my letters, Mummy." Sherlock protested.However, Mrs. Holmes ignored him. She asked the maid to share the cake for everyone to enjoy after dinner, and then took Jane to the drawing room.

Everyone sat in the living room and chatted together, and they all had a very good impression of each other.Both Mr. Holmes and Mrs. Holmes like smart people. Jane is not stupid. In fact, "smart" is Jane's opinion of Holmes and his wife, especially Mrs. Holmes, she is a rare smart person.

But what made Jane a little puzzled was that Sherlock seemed to have some wrong ideas about his parents... his mother. It seemed that he always thought that his mother was not particularly smart compared to other women, while the Holmes and his wife Nor did Mycroft attempt to correct him on this point.

Difficult, is it a tradition?

To Jane, although Mrs. Holmes' character is a little naive that doesn't match her age, it can only be said that Mr. Holmes' love did not let the trivial things of life make her lover become a boring woman, and can give birth to Mycroft. How can a woman with Sherlock be mediocre?

Jane didn't know that her thoughts were very similar to those of Mycroft's.

After tasting the cake brought by Jane, Mrs. Holmes took Jane to visit the house, which will be Jane's home and the place where she and Mycroft held their wedding.Mrs. Holmes is looking forward to the wedding very much. Although there is more than half a year left, she has already prepared a lot of things.

"Mr. Holmes said there is no need to worry about wine and food. I think so too. The most important thing now is your and Mycroft's clothes. Oh, my dear, I am so happy. Sometimes I think Mycroft is a Little baby, but he is going to marry such a beautiful girl in a blink of an eye." Mrs. Holmes said as she picked up her handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes.

"I feel very happy." Jane said sincerely.

"I know you're a good boy." Mrs. Holmes took Jane's hand, "The men in the Holmes family are all people who can't compromise on their own hearts. I used to think that Mycroft would be a bachelor all his life. Fortunately, you showed up. You have no idea how happy Mr. Holmes and I were when Mycroft came back and said he wanted to get married. It was luck for Mycroft, and luck for the old Holmes family. Oh, you know, I almost thought the old Holmes The Holmes family is about to die in Mycroft's generation... just kidding."

It really doesn't seem like a joke, Jane thought, isn't that right? Her appearance is the biggest OOC of the Holmes family. Not only did Mycroft, who had been a bachelor all his life, have a wife, but also Mr. Holmes' family, who had broken his inheritance, became a wife. Regroup.

Thinking about it this way, Jane felt that she was really capable!

"I remember we met at the Gardner's before, didn't I? Mr. Gardner, who are you?" asked Mrs. Holmes, as they went up the stairs.

"It's my uncle."

"You see, it's fate. Who would have thought then that such a pretty little girl would end up marrying Mycroft."

Thinking of the scene at that time, Mrs. Holmes and Jane couldn't help smiling secretly where the other could not see.

"I haven't thanked you for taking care of Sherlock when I was in Cambridge."

"It's really hard to say, ma'am, I'm friends with Sherlock, it's hard to say who takes care of the other, and Sherlock has also helped me a lot."

"That's enough, Sherlock, that idiot, hasn't made any friends since he was a child."

Excuse me, silly boy?Do you mean Sherlock Holmes?Jane was a little speechless for a while, and she felt that this stalk could make her laugh at Sherlock for the rest of her life.

After going to Holmes' house, Jane felt a lot more relaxed, as if she had accomplished a big event... and it was indeed a big event.In short, the most important thing for Jane now is the repair of the wedding dress and the house.

Jane's wedding dress was the one used by Mrs. Bennet when she got married.

Since Queen Victoria led the trend of white wedding dresses, white wedding dresses have immediately become a symbol of pure brides. The wedding dresses used by Mrs. Bennet were made of high-end materials and well preserved. That was when the big skirts were popular. And now the big bustle has long been abandoned because of inconvenience.

At Christmas, under the envious eyes of everyone, Mrs. Bennet reluctantly gave Jane her precious and preserved wedding dress as a Christmas gift.Although the style is no longer popular, it must be admitted that this is still a beautiful dress.

Jane took the wedding dress to Cambridge and spent a long time designing it before finally deciding on a plan to modify it.There is another very important thing for her to come to London this time, which is to buy some white gauze that matches this wedding dress.

After seeing the house under renovation on the spot, Jane spent a few days drawing some interior decoration sketches... She didn't know that she had such a talent in design before.

These days were so busy and full that she was a little overwhelmed when she and Mycroft came out to eat and heard a piece of news.

"What? You mean you have a godfather with Monte Cristo as his surname and an earl?" Jane thought that her expression must be very dazed now, just like her brain.

Don't think that I don't like me because I don't read enough... Count of Monte Cristo, didn't that happen in the Napoleon era of France!

"How come I never heard you say it?" Jane's voice was erratic, but Mycroft didn't notice.

"Ah, he's a Frenchman who has lived in Italy for almost ten years, and this time he came to England because I'm getting married." Mycroft didn't think there was any problem with this.

Oh, great, he is French... Wait, what the hell is going on!

"But...but how did he become your godfather?" This is what Jane wants to ask most.

"That's a long story."

So to cut a long story short!

"The godfather's father and my grandfather were friends, and then he inherited a small island in France called 'Monte Cristo', so his title is the Count of Monte Cristo." Mycroft said, "He likes people to call it that. he."

Jane was still waiting for Mycroft to continue, but unexpectedly Mycroft closed his mouth and began to concentrate on eating.

"It's over?"

"Ah."

"..."

You seem to be teasing me?Jane’s expression said so.

When she wanted to meet the Holmes couple before, Jane asked Mycroft a hundred and eighty times about their preferences, not to mention that there is no difference between the godfather and the parents.Besides, how to reason without clues?She questioned Mycroft all over.

Mycroft is also quite helpless. Although he is the godfather, he has never met him a few times since he was a child. As far as he knows, there are still many things that he can't tell Jane. What can he do?

Finally, Jane stopped, and Mycroft found that she was eating absent-mindedly, obviously still thinking about the Earl.The little man in Mycroft's heart akimbo puffed his face: how fat?Am I not handsome or cute anymore?Why do you keep thinking about the godfather when you eat with me?In short, I am very unhappy, and I need to kiss to coax it well.

The author has something to say: Mycroft: Brother, it’s not that I won’t help you, if this continues, you will be the stupidest person in our family!
