[Pride and Prejudice] My husband loves me again

Because His Royal Highness the Prince Regent of London loves military uniforms, the daily clothing of the army is dazzling red, with gorgeous and complicated decorations, which saves a lot of money for young and poor low-ranking officers.

In all fairness you couldn't find a better young man in uniform than Wickham.

Personable or handsome, any good word you can think of for appearance could be applied to him.

Last time Elizabeth especially hoped that Wickham could appear in Netherfield, and many people could see her earnestness, but Wickham did not come; this time Wickham came, but Elizabeth had already seen through him.

However, she could not refuse Wickham's invitation to dance due to emotion and reason.

It seems that no matter which time, Darcy is always one step behind Wickham.

Elizabeth took a deep breath, turned around and faced Wickham with a smile on her face: "Good night, Mr. Wickham, I saw you in the hall before, listening to the conversation of the ladies around, it seems that you are among them He is also famous, so why did the first dance fail?"

"That's because you and Mr. Bingley went dancing, and I want you to be my first dance partner tonight." Wickham didn't know if he really didn't hear Elizabeth's ridicule, or simply put Elizabeth This remark was taken as a rebuke, and it didn't matter to him: "So you must dance the next dance with me. If you can, I must dance at least two dances with you tonight."

Elizabeth felt that she could tolerate Wickham's first dance at most: "I promise to dance the second dance with you. As for the subsequent invitation, who knows what will happen in the future?"

Although I gave youmay's answer, Elizabeth actually wanted to say "your sister"!

Wickham didn't force it either, and smiled warmly like a spring breeze.

Although Elizabeth knew that he was a scumbag, but why did he have the ability to act like this? Who made this a society that depends on faces?

All of a sudden, the three men who attracted the most attention in the audience, Darcy, Bingley and Wickham, surrounded Elizabeth, which inevitably attracted everyone's attention. laughed.

Wickham immediately resigned with an excuse to relieve Elizabeth.

Darcy lost the opportunity and was unwilling to leave, so he had no choice but to give up his original idea of ​​inviting the dancer, and had nothing to say to Bingley. He was used to being picky, and subconsciously taunted Wickham : "Bingley, like me, you haven't seen Wickham for many years. Since he left school halfway, we haven't heard a word from him. But at least he did one thing right. Compared with The dark priest's robe is indeed more suitable for him than the golden red military uniform."

Bingley just echoed a few words gently. It was a long time since he and Wickham hadn't seen each other, and he didn't attack personally like Darcy.

After Darcy finished speaking, he also felt that his tone was a bit mean, but he didn't regret it. He didn't care at all that those ladies who didn't open their eyes were deceived by Wickham, but Miss Elizabeth couldn't be fooled.Wickham is used to playing with women, but he can't involve the girls around him. He unconsciously included Elizabeth among the people related to him.

He satirizes Wickham, not only to let Elizabeth know that Wickham is a libertine who did not finish his studies, but also to let her know that Wickham is a butterfly who stirs up trouble everywhere.

Elizabeth didn't know his seemingly arrogant but stupid warning, so she had to suppress her laughter and cleverly accepted the suggestion of the "too lenient" gentleman: "It is said that the regent especially likes this uniform. , I often wear it like this in the palace in London, but the regent is always busy, so how can he have the time to go to the battlefield?!"

Does she understand that Wickham is an embroidered pillow?As expected of the lady he admired, she understood so quickly, if she hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't know how many detours she would have taken under Wickham's flattery!Darcy suddenly became enlightened, and the depression of being preempted by others dissipated. The obvious cloudiness on his face even the dull Bingley could feel.

Bingley was always so considerate: "Oh, Darcy, last time you and Miss Elizabeth didn't dance because Miss Bennet was uncomfortable, you can't let this lovely lady fail at the ball again this time." Well, I assure you from my experience that Miss Elizabeth will not disappoint you with her skillful footwork and lightness of figure."

Darcy recalled the beautiful memory of the morning after the rain when the two met. He lifted the troubled lady onto the horse. Elizabeth was as light as a bird. The mud looks simple and lovely.He unconsciously put his hands behind his back and rubbed his fingers nervously.

From the eyes of others, he held his hands back and chest out, which was simply an annoying and haughty posture.

This other person did not include Elizabeth, because she felt Darcy's earnest gaze, and she had been waiting for this opportunity to dance together for a long time.

"Of course, Miss Elizabeth's gestures are very light." Darcy didn't want people to know the origin of this "lightness". If I had the honor, it must have been a fun time."

Elizabeth's eyes lit up, so bright that Darcy immediately took the look as encouragement.

"Would you like to dance with me?" Darcy thought of Wickham unhappily, and he was unwilling to follow Wickham's pace: "Why don't you leave me the first dance after the dinner."

The ball at Netherfield was magnificent, with a sumptuous dinner between the eight dances.

You must know that when you dance to a song, who is not panting and sweating, and a glass of wine during the break will neither relieve fatigue nor relieve heat, so if it is a luxurious dance with a big scene and a long time, it must be accompanied by a dinner.

By saying this, Darcy refused to admit defeat to Wickham.

Elizabeth readily agreed.

Seeing that things were going well, Darcy turned around and left. He only thought about the dance with Elizabeth, and was impatient to deal with other ladies. Except for the first dance with Caroline, he was out of politeness. Mrs. Hurst was invited and then completely indifferent.

This alarmed Lydia and Charlotte.

Lydia always stayed close to Elizabeth intentionally or unintentionally, but Darcy did not try to say anything to Elizabeth after inviting the dance, and Lydia did not benefit from this. Originally, she thought that Jane could benefit Elizabeth in the original book. However, the benefit of the elder sister speaking for her younger sister will also benefit her from Elizabeth.

Whether it is Elizabeth or Bingley, as long as they say "Miss Lydia Bennet is also an excellent lady", they will naturally be promoted as Darcy's dancing partner nearby.

Darcy didn't even have a break, she just wandered around the place, Lydia had to give up following Elizabeth, and instead followed Darcy, hoping that he would turn around and see her, and it would be good to invite him out of politeness .

Charlotte had nothing to do with it, and now it was Sir Lucas's head, so Darcy simply said that he wanted to go upstairs to see if Mrs. de Bourgh was bored, and to talk to his aunt about the interesting things at the ball. , refused openly.

Darcy was too experienced to avoid dancing.

Unless it is his own dancing partner, no one can force him to dance with a lady who doesn't like him, it's just so willful.

Jane watched Lydia and Charlotte go around without missing a word, and saw that although Darcy invited Elizabeth to dance, but never talked to her afterwards, a big stone was put down in her heart.After a while Lydia squeezed beside her and complained bitterly: "I didn't expect it to be so easy to deal with Elizabeth, but so difficult to deal with Darcy, he is so indifferent, I can't believe he didn't see that I don't have a partner, so puzzled Style, if it wasn't for the money and the status, it would be 'a lonely life'."

Elizabeth didn't have a dance partner at the time, and she didn't see Darcy condescending to help, so it's fine if she refused to help, and she also disliked that the girl was not beautiful enough.Even if Mr. Darcy has the capital, he naturally has no reason to help you, a middle school girl.

Jane Bie gloated and said, "I don't think it's Mr. Darcy's 'Intention to Lonely Life', but your 'Intention to Lonely Life' is more or less the same."

"Then you underestimate me. Do you think that if Darcy asks Elizabeth to dance, Elizabeth will be able to get her wish?" Lydia raised her chin arrogantly: "She doesn't even think about it."

Jane had no hope for Lydia's IQ, but now she also became curious: "What the hell did you do?"

"Just watch," Lydia looked forward to the dance music playing again: "Elizabeth won't be able to dance for long."

Contrary to the anticipation mood of the time-traveling girls, Elizabeth felt uncomfortable at the thought of dancing with Wickham next. You must know that the girls in gentlemen's houses loved dancing the most. Because of Wickham's appearance, even dancing Even a pleasure looked hideous.

From this we can see that Wickham was so terrible to Elizabeth.

Not to mention his uncharacteristically obsessive interest in Elizabeth, who wished to find Miss Jin to take the blame.

"Fortunately, I spoke quickly, otherwise you must be dancing with Mr. Darcy at this moment, and then I have to wait for the third dance," Wickham clapped his hands in accordance with the rhythm, and danced in the direction of Elizabeth. Take a small step: "Then I'm going to be very anxious!"

Elizabeth was actually not good at dealing with such high-level and explicit pursuits. Although Darcy was also very explicit back then, his speaking skills were extremely clumsy. If Elizabeth wanted to describe it, it would be a volcanic eruption without warning. Knowing that after the fierce conflict, Elizabeth was sad for a long time.

Facing Wickham now, Elizabeth missed the feeling of dead Darcy erupting.

Because Wickham felt like a slimy caterpillar crawling along her arm.
