Pride and Prejudice Becoming Jane
Chapter 22
?Actually, after Wickerham hit a wall with Jane that day, he met a very gossipy wife. He was really uncomfortable at that time, so after they chatted for a while, the matter naturally spread.Coupled with Darcy's performance in Meryton, the rumors spread even faster.
So the next morning, Kitty rushed in to tell Jane the news, and she couldn't wait to prove that she was right.At this time, Jane and Elizabeth were reading a book by the window. Kitty didn't take a break, and directly told them the news she heard in the morning: "Jane, Lizzie, do you know that I heard this from Mrs. Long this morning?" Great news." She took a few breaths to calm her tone, "It turns out that Mr. Darcy did such a heinous thing to Mr. Wickham, but they were friends before, which is too infuriating."
Elizabeth felt that something was wrong at this time, so she continued to let Kitty talk.
"Originally, Mr. Darcy and Mr. Wickham grew up together, but Mr. Darcy hated old Mr. Darcy's concern for Wickham, so after the death of old Mr. Darcy, he reneged on his promise to Mr. Wickham's priesthood, and kicked him out. My God, I never thought Mr. Darcy was such a man in the first place," said Kitty indignantly.
"Of course you wouldn't think of it, because he is not such a person, and the rumors circulating in Meryton today just prove it." Jane said to Kitty slowly with a smile on her face, "Depending on the situation, most people already know This matter, but yesterday Mr. Wiggham mentioned this matter with a feeling that he didn’t want to mention it, so we didn’t ask too much. We didn’t expect this matter to come to our ears today. This is what he called not wanting to mention it. Bringing up old things again, I don't want to hurt his former friend. He didn't directly confront Darcy when he was hurt, but indirectly used public opinion to destroy Mr. Darcy's reputation. Is this what he thinks is a gentleman's performance?"
At this time, the people in the Bennett family did not show any particular dislike for Darcy. Elizabeth was just complaining for Jane before, and Kitty was temporarily deceived only because she had a good impression of Wixham.Now they found out the doubts about Wickham, and when they calmed down and observed him from an objective perspective, they found that there were several things he said that couldn't be explained.Although Kitty was a little sad, but fortunately she only had a good impression of Wixham, and she made up her mind in her heart that she should not act impulsively in the future, and should be more cautious.
"Well, Jane, I admit that Mr. Wiggham is indeed suspected of being a liar. But apart from him, I still have reservations about Mr. Darcy. I will have a good talk with Mr. Bingley and see how he goes. What kind of person you are. You have always been sensible, and I hope you don't lose your sanity with Mr. Darcy." Elizabeth said.
"Love will make people blind. Lizzie, isn't that how you treat Mr. Bingley? I remember who said that Mr. Bingley's shortcomings are so cute a few days ago."
Seeing Jane openly admitting that she likes Mr. Darcy, Elizabeth was helpless. Love is indeed a wonderful thing. Forget it, Jane became stubborn and even scared herself, so Elizabeth stopped advising her, so they happily said After some interesting words, continue to enjoy the time of reading.
Two weeks later, a ball was held in Netherfield Gardens, and the Bennetts were all invited. Cousin Collins was very happy when he heard that he could make new friends, regardless of the scruples the clergy might have about attending the ball. Went with my cousins.
For this ball, the Bennett family attached great importance to it. Jane and Elizabeth both dressed up, wearing beautiful beaded flowers on their heads, and wearing the most figure-defining skirts.Jane, who was already very beautiful, looked even more charming after dressing up, like an angel, she couldn't bear to be profane.
When they arrived at the door of the ballroom, Jane saw Mr. Darcy standing by the window at a glance. Jane smiled at him, but turned around immediately after Mr. Darcy nodded.What Jane didn't know was that that smile gave Darcy a knowing blow. Darcy felt that his heart almost stopped at that moment. Did he think he saw an angel smiling at him? ?
