[Zhongying] Rebirth meets a wizard
Chapter 53 The 7th Prom 1
After Lydia learned all about the situation from Sherlock, she only felt that Wickham was just a bad habit, and that getting something for nothing was his eternal pursuit.
Because he always expects to get wealth and status easily, he has always been jealous of Mr. Darcy.
The pursuit of money is not enough for him to smear Mr. Darcy in Longbourne, and he will come to Darcy Manor to blackmail after he is nervous.
In fact, speaking of it, there is a reason for Sherlock this time.
The last time Sherlock went to Meryton to solve the case of the militia, and at the same time he solved the murder case, he also picked out those who gambled in the militia. It was really a coincidence.
But Mr. Wickham was stripped of his handsome and promising skin in advance, and while he was dismissed by the militia, he was also chased by creditors.
For the sake of money, there is no way to go, and Mr. Wickham, who got a benefit last time, only wants to come to Derbyshire to find Mr. Darcy for "emergency".
But Mr. Darcy didn’t stay in Derbyshire as he did at this time in previous years, and there was not enough money for Wickham to go to London. Mr. Wickham simply hooked up with Mrs. Younger and asked her to help him pass the message to the butler of Darcy Manor. If Mr. Darcy does not pay him, he will lose his tongue.
The housekeeper chosen by Mrs. Younger is the housekeeper who cares most about the Darcy brothers and sisters. She is very old. She was very disturbed by Wickham's threat for a few days, and finally wrote a letter to Mr. Darcy cryptically.
It took time for the letters to go back and forth, but Mr. Wickham couldn't wait any longer. Mrs. Younger also helped to persecute the elderly housekeeper many times, which made the elderly housekeeper usually in a trance. coma.
Mr. Darcy knew it was not good when he received the cryptic letter from the old butler, and hurried back only to see the old butler who was seriously ill. Although he knew that Wickham was probably playing tricks, he was already very passive at this time.
After the housekeeper fell ill, Mrs. Younger was a little timid and did not dare to come to the door, which also prevented Mr. Darcy from knowing the details.
Fortunately, Mr. Darcy had already found Sherlock before leaving London, and Sherlock was also helpful, or Lydia was also helpful, so they caught Wickham, who was temporarily inactive because of the old housekeeper's illness.
During this period of time, Mr. Darcy and Miss Darcy's normal life was also a way to paralyze Wickham. Of course, Joanna really didn't know the situation, and Mr. Darcy didn't reveal anything to his sister.
Lydia, who once again felt Joanna's happiness, also helped Joanna to train Mr. Darcy this time, saying that he had poor wrists and could not control people, and he actually believed in Mr. Wickham and Mrs. Younger.
Sherlock was still at the side to chime in. It is conceivable that standing next to Wickham who was tied unconscious, as if being punished to stand, and how bad Mr. Darcy's face was when he was being ridiculed. It is also conceivable that the two culprits, Wickham Things won't be as good for John and Young as they used to be.
Lydia saw that Mr. Darcy sent someone to send Mr. Wickham away forcibly, and he was also going to send Mrs. Younger away. It is said that they were sent away separately, so that there was no possibility of them returning.
Lydia felt that Mr. Darcy was still kind, and he was indeed a young master with a golden spoon in his mouth, and his methods always had a bottom line.
Sherlock, who saw Lydia's thoughts, was rarely worried, not what Lydia would do to others, but whether Lydia had encountered anything.
This kind of worry only made Sherlock more considerate and gentle, but Lydia was not used to it.
Seeing Lydia's startled reaction, Sherlock only found it funny, but he has been adapting to getting along with Lydia.
When getting along, as long as Sherlock sees how others can make a good husband, or realizes what kind of a good husband he should be, he can quickly become proficient and become the best one.
Sherlock would be the most considerate husband.
This is the consensus of the Bennet family who watched the dog abuse, including John, who will soon become the Bennet family.
Sherlock, who has always subverted everyone's imagination, received a letter from his brother.
That's right, Mycroft came to claim credit and also to laugh at Sherlock.
For Lydia to become a nobleman, this good news must be conveyed, and there is also the "secret" worry about her younger brother.
"Dear brother, I think Sherlock Bennet is also a good name. I think that as long as you can get married, your parents will be able to understand that you are given your wife's surname. After all, you are going to marry Lady Bennet. Well."
Looking at the letter, Sherlock seemed to see his brother standing in front of him, the corners of his lips curled up in a haughty manner, and his tone was full of ridicule.
The letter was delivered to the Bennets' house with the utmost thoughtfulness, as if Mycroft knew that Sherlock must be at the Bennets' house during the day.
After reading the letter, Sherlock, who had been ridiculed by his brother as expected, handed the letter to Lydia who was looking at him eagerly.
In fact, Lydia, who was very worried about meeting her parents, was a little nervous at first, even though it was just a letter, but finally she bent over laughing because of the letter from McCoff.
"Sherlock, do you want to have my surname? I will treat you well..."
Sherlock looked at his fiancée playing tricks with a blank face, thinking about making trouble for his brother, his right hand had deliberately rubbed Lydia's hair in order to punish Lydia for not speaking for him.
"Are you being nice to me and helping Mycroft laugh at me?"
"Oh my... I was discovered, in fact I..."
Lydia wanted to continue joking, but was gagged by Sherlock who knew what was going on, it was a shallow kiss.
Before the tender lips left, Sherlock even bit the dazed Lydia lightly.
Lydia had already forgotten what she was going to say earlier, she blinked blankly, and just looked at Sherlock like that, never expecting him to be so bold that he dared to gag her directly.
"Lydia, next spring, after your honor ceremony, let's get married!"
Sherlock pecked Lydia who was staring at him cutely again, and then confirmed their wedding date with Lydia.
..............................
He was busy changing plans, looking for relevant scholars in Cambridge to do research, and taking care of his previous Chengshan job. At the most irritable moment, McCoff received a letter from his brother who was on strike.
He opened the letter angrily, and inside was the triumphant announcement of the wedding date. It seemed that Sherlock wished to abduct Lydia to get married on the second day of Feng Xun.
Once again, Mycroft, who felt that his brother was tied up, looked at the office with only work documents, and didn't know whether to envy Sherlock or worry about Sherlock's future life.
Where will Sherlock and Lydia, who will have a lively life in the future, go? This will soon be unable to stay in Mycroft's mind. Putting Sherlock's letter in a drawer, he really has no time If you think about useless feelings, let's finish this work first.
You must know that recently Mycroft's favorite dessert time has been compressed. Who is Sherlock?My younger brother is going to marry anyway...
Mycroft, who realized himself at work, and Sherlock, who found his obsession outside work, finally made different choices.
The original two brothers are so similar. Although their career directions are different, they both regard the work they love as their lifelong partner and give all their enthusiasm.
Now, Sherlock has Lydia, he still likes the case, but the attitude is no longer the only fanaticism, it is different after all.
So is he still Sherlock?
Of course, he just became a Sherlock named Lydia with a piece of softness in his heart. He is still a great detective, still witty and vicious.
..............................
Also receiving the news that the honor ceremony will be held at the end of this year and early next year are other well-informed people in London.
Mr. Hurt was one of them. He knew that Lydia would be one of the honored ones, so what about himself, should he also grab a spot.
Miss Hurt, who felt that her brother was no different after the breakup, was just a little more silent when she saw her brother in a daze.
"Brother, what are you thinking?"
Seeing his younger sister refilling tea for him, and pouring himself a cup of it at ease, he felt that he could ask his younger sister who is also a lady.
"Kelly, Lydia will soon be a duchess, do you think I should try to be knighted with her?"
"what?"
Miss Hurt, who was drinking tea relaxedly, suspected that she had heard wrong, and looked sideways at her brother, what happened to Lydia's knighthood?
"Brother, say it again, I don't seem to hear clearly."
Mr. Hurt suppressed the urge to roll his eyes at his sister, and repeated it with his brother's airs.
"Lydia is going to be made a baroness, do you think I should fight to be made the same batch as her?"
"Lydia is amazing!"
The real feminist Miss Hurt, who focuses entirely on her friends, ignores her brother's problems.
"I'm your brother and sister, why don't you answer my question before getting excited?"
Mr. Hurt felt tired, why did his sister not care about him so much.
"Brother, whether or not you were knighted with Lydia will not change the fact that Lydia is engaged."
Miss Hurt is also very helpless. What kind of question does her brother ask? Can participating in the honor ceremony together change Lydia's mind?
However, the different ways of thinking between men and women caused the Hurt brothers and sisters to talk about each other.
Mr. Hurt is very firm that it can change.
"When the time comes, Lydia will have a title, do you think she will still like Holmes who has no title and is the second son?"
"Why not, the change of status doesn't mean Lydia will change her mind."
Miss Hurt failed to understand her brother's logic.
"Women only marry high, how can they marry low casually? And that's Lydia, who is unyielding and ambitious... Could it be that Holmes was asked to change his surname to Bennet? Don't be ridiculous!"
Mr. Hurt felt that Lydia would be willing to marry when the time came, and Holmes might not be willing to marry either.
"Emotions are not determined by status? Brother, where do you want to go, and change your surname?"
Miss Hurt was relatively calm. She felt that based on what she knew about Lydia, she would not change her mind.
Finally, Miss Hurt knew that her brother's heart for Lydia was not dead, so it was a little embarrassing, because she was a friend on the one hand and her brother on the other.
While the siblings were chatting endlessly, the invitations to the Darcy family's ball arrived, with the Darcy family crest on the delicately printed invitations.
Mr. Hurt was also one of the people who paid attention to the troubles in Derbyshire, knowing that this was an invitation to the ball after the Darcy family solved their troubles.
He estimated that Lydia would also be invited to participate, so there was no reason for him not to participate.
..............................
The spaciousness and luxury of Darcy Manor made the experience of this ball very good.
Lydia took Sherlock's hand and walked into the hall of the manor, where there were already people coming and going, next to the hosts who were greeting the guests - Mr. Darcy and Miss Darcy.
Darcy Manor has no official hostess yet, Miss Darcy is accompanying her brother to welcome the guests.
Her eyes lit up when she saw Lydia.
Lydia took the initiative to go over to say hello to Miss Darcy, who was inconvenient to leave. After walking through the crowd, she realized that it was Miss Bingley who was standing near Miss Darcy to help greet the guests.
This is a little subtle. Generally speaking, Mrs. Darcy should be standing in this position. Now that Miss Bingley is so enthusiastic, everyone knows Sima Zhaozhi's heart.
This is also the reason why Miss Darcy can't go away. If Miss Darcy goes away and leaves Miss Bingley at the door to entertain guests with Mr. Darcy, then tomorrow, everyone in Derbyshire will think that Mr. Darcy and Miss Bingley are engaged.
In order to avoid this kind of misunderstanding, Miss Darcy could only stand at the door and smile, and she could only greet Lydia with her eyes.
Lydia, who appeared with her fiancé on her arm, rarely received a sincere smile from Miss Bingley, probably because the possibility of Lydia vying for the position of Mrs. Darcy was ruled out.
Along with Lydia, of course, there are Mary and John a few steps behind, the Bennets a carriage behind, and the other three daughters.
As soon as Jane and Elizabeth appeared in front of Miss Bingley's eyes, her face changed color visible to the naked eye.
If Lydia saw the proud Miss Bingley, then Miss Bingley couldn't hold back her smile when the Bennet family appeared, especially when Mr. Bingley approached Jane enthusiastically.
Later, Mr. Darcy's rare eagerness to the Bennet family completely changed Miss Bingley's face.
In fact, Lydia has always felt that a lady of the right age who wants to be beautiful and beautiful, and who wants a dowry like Miss Bingley, doesn't need to pester Mr. Darcy.
Seeing such a Darcy Manor, and looking at half of Derbyshire's land, in fact, thinking about Lydia can also understand the reason, it is nothing more than wealth and status.
But now, Lydia felt that Miss Bingley was so earnestly observing Mr. Darcy's attitude, and Elizabeth's attitude.
With Sherlock on her arm, before Lydia left the ball host, she saw Miss Bingley, who was so talkative and enthusiastic, walk through the crowd and return to her brother, even though her brother was chatting with Jane.
Looking at Miss Bingley, a lady, sitting quietly beside Mr. Bingley and Jane, it seems that the hostess who stood at the door and greeted everyone just now was really a coincidence, and she was just greeting everyone with enthusiasm.
Miss Darcy, who was relieved, followed Lydia with a little bouncing. After Miss Bingley left, she was finally relieved. Before, Mr. Darcy had always entertained guests alone.
Under Sherlock's dissatisfied frown, Lydia pulled out her hand and held Miss Darcy who had grown taller recently.
"Joanna, you were exhausted just now."
Although he was not happy, Sherlock, who didn't disturb Lydia's gossip mood, talked to Lydia and brought her a drink.
Seeing Mr. Holmes leave, Miss Darcy began to complain.
"Yes, Lydia, I froze with laughter at the door."
"Don't like Miss Bingley?"
Lydia looked at Miss Bingley, who didn't change her face when she saw Jane staying with her brother not far away, and felt that the lady who knew the current affairs had changed her attitude.
"Actually, it's okay, it's just a little troublesome."
Miss Darcy, who couldn't easily speak ill of others, pursed her lips, but she didn't say anything against Miss Bingley, even though Miss Bingley did embarrass the Darcy brothers and sisters.
"I don't think it will happen in the future. She finally knows Mr. Darcy's refusal. Miss Bingley is a smart person. She can see Mr. Darcy's attitude clearly."
Lydia turned her head away before Miss Bingley followed her gaze.
Therefore, Miss Bingley could see the hesitation of Mr. Darcy when she was pestering Mr. Darcy, but now, Mr. Darcy's clear attitude let her know that she was out of business, and she left simply.
If she can stop the loss in time, Miss Bingley is still a smart person. She has not lost yet. She is young, beautiful, and rich. Without Mr. Darcy, she can still look for a husband again.
This is also Miss Bingley's confidence. As long as she is really optimistic, then she will lose, and it is hard to say whether she will win or lose in life.
"Really? You know, I've been bored to death these two days."
Miss Darcy, who didn't know Lydia thought so much at this glance, accidentally told the truth.
"These two days?"
Lydia repeated.
"But Mr. and Miss Bingley arrived yesterday afternoon?"
Sherlock and John had settled down at Darcy's Manor, so of course Lydia knew when the Bingleys would arrive.
"Yeah, it just arrived yesterday, but there are still a lot of letters before it arrives."
Miss Darcy complained in a low voice, and she still felt a little sad when she remembered it, but that was all.
Lydia understood and couldn't help laughing.
So before Miss Bingley arrived, Miss Darcy had been annoyed several times by letters from her "sister-in-law".
"Lydia, you're still laughing at me!"
Miss Darcy felt a little wronged, and her good friend made fun of her if she didn't help.
"If you want to blame it, blame your brother. Mr. Darcy's attitude before was ambiguous, just hanging on Miss Bingley like that. It's normal for Miss Bingley not to give up the diamond king. Now Mr. Darcy's attitude is finally clear, and Miss Bingley is sure. I won't bother you any more."
What Lydia said was personal, so she said it softly to Miss Darcy, without the intention of publicizing it.
"That's good."
Miss Darcy, whose rough nerves were comparable to John's, just breathed a sigh of relief, and was not interested in Lydia's reasoning process.
Just when Lydia thought it was funny, Sherlock came over with a waiter carrying three glasses of juice.
Looking at the three lonely glasses of orange juice, Miss Darcy couldn't react.
Lydia took a glass and gave it to Miss Darcy.
The marginalized Sherlock gave Lydia a glass, and Lydia smiled, touched Sherlock's glass, and gave Sherlock a big, sweet smile of gratitude, which was to comfort the neglected fiancé .
Then the icy Sherlock eased his expression.
Because he always expects to get wealth and status easily, he has always been jealous of Mr. Darcy.
The pursuit of money is not enough for him to smear Mr. Darcy in Longbourne, and he will come to Darcy Manor to blackmail after he is nervous.
In fact, speaking of it, there is a reason for Sherlock this time.

What Lydia said was personal, so she said it softly to Miss Darcy, without the intention of publicizing it.
"That's good."
Miss Darcy, whose rough nerves were comparable to John's, just breathed a sigh of relief, and was not interested in Lydia's reasoning process.
Just when Lydia thought it was funny, Sherlock came over with a waiter carrying three glasses of juice.
Looking at the three lonely glasses of orange juice, Miss Darcy couldn't react.
Lydia took a glass and gave it to Miss Darcy.
The marginalized Sherlock gave Lydia a glass, and Lydia smiled, touched Sherlock's glass, and gave Sherlock a big, sweet smile of gratitude, which was to comfort the neglected fiancé .
Then the icy Sherlock eased his expression.
