Let us say that as soon as Elizabeth came into the house, Jane asked her: "My dear Liz, where have you been?" When the two of them sat down, everyone in the family asked her this, and she could only say that the two of them were wandering around, and she didn't know where she went afterwards.She blushed as she spoke; but whatever she looked, no one suspected the matter. The afternoon passed peacefully and without incident.The open couple talked and laughed; the non-public couple was silent.Darcy's nature is calm, and his joy is invisible; Elizabeth is flustered, knowing that she is happy, but not exactly knowing how happy it is, because besides the current awkwardness, there are all kinds of troubles waiting ahead.She anticipated how the family would feel when things became public.She knew that no one in the family liked him except Jane, and she even worried that they would hate him, even if his property status could not save him.

In the evening, she told Ji Ying the truth.Jane, though never suspicious, could hardly believe it. You are joking!Liz.There will be no such thing!Engaged to Mr. Darcy!No, no, don't lie to me; I know it's impossible. It was so bad at the beginning, it was terrible!My only hope is in you, and if you don't believe me, no one will.I am absolutely not talking nonsense to you.I'm telling the truth.He still loves me, we've made a deal. Ji-young looks at her dubiously.Oh, Liz, there will be no such thing.I know you hate him very much. You don't understand the twists and turns here at all, so there is no need to mention this kind of thing.Perhaps I never loved him as much as I do now.But for things like this, you shouldn't keep your old grudges in your mind too well.I will definitely forget about it from now on.

Miss Bennet still looked very surprised.Then Elizabeth told her again, more seriously, that this was the truth. Jiying couldn't help shouting: "My God!"Is there such a thing?Now I should believe you, my dear Liz, dear Liz, I want to congratulate you, I must congratulate you; but, sorry, let me ask you: can you be sure whether you can be 100% sure? , Is he happy to marry him? Of course there is no doubt about it.We both thought we were the happiest couple in the world.But are you happy, Jane?Would you like to have such a brother-in-law? very, very willing.Bingley and I couldn't have been happier.We have also considered and discussed this matter, and we all think it is impossible.Do you really love him very much?Oh, Liz, you can do anything you want, but you must never marry without love.Do you really feel like you should?

indeed so!When I tell you all the details, you'll only think I haven't done enough. What do you mean by that? Well, I must confess that I love him more than I love Bingley.I'm afraid you're going to be angry. My dear sister, please be serious.I want to hear you have a serious talk.If you can say anything to me, tell me quickly. Would you like to tell me how long you have loved him? It developed slowly, I can't tell when, but I think it started with the sight of Pemberley's beautiful garden. Her sister called her to be more serious again, and this time it was effective; she immediately obeyed Jane's advice, and told Jane seriously how she loved him.When Miss Bennet realized this, she was relieved of everything.

She said: I am so happy now, because you will be as happy as me.I have always held him in high regard.If nothing else, but for his love of you, I shall respect him forever; and as he is Bingley's friend, and now your husband, then, of course, I like best besides Bingley and you. That's him.But Liz, you're too cunning to tell me a thing ordinarily.Nothing about Pemberley or Lambert was ever told to me!Some of the situations I know are told to me by others, not you. Elizabeth had to tell her the reasons for keeping the secret.She had been unwilling to mention Bingley before, and her restlessness prevented Darcy from being mentioned, but now she would not have to hide from Jill the part of Darcy's work on Lydia's marriage. British.She told everything, and the sisters talked until midnight.

The next morning, Mrs. Bennet stood at the window and exclaimed: My God!That nasty Mr. Darcy is here again with our Bingley!Why is he so ignorant, always coming here?I wish he'd go bird hunting, or whatever, and not bother us.Tell us what to do with him?Liz, you must go for a walk with him again, and don't let him trouble Bingley here. Elizabeth could not help laughing at her mother's idea of ​​this, which was exactly what Elizabeth wanted, but she was a little annoyed at her mother's constant remark that he was annoying. Bingley looked at her meaningfully, and shook her hand warmly, as soon as the two distinguished guests entered the door, and she concluded from this that he must be well informed; : Mrs. Bennet, is there any other winding road in this area that Liz can get lost again today?

Mrs. Bennet said: I would advise Mr. Darcy, Liz and Kitty to go up to Oakham Hill this morning.It was a very pleasant walk, and Mr. Darcy had never seen the scenery there. Mr. Bingley said: 'Certainly nothing could be better for them both, and I don't think Kitty can bear it.Don't you, Kitty? Kitty said she would rather stay at home.Darcy said that he really wanted to see the surrounding scenery on that mountain.Elizabeth silently assented, and was going upstairs to get ready when Mrs. Bennet said after her: Liz, I'm sorry for forcing you to be with that annoying person, don't worry about it.You know, it's all for Jane's sake; you'll just have to put him in a perfunctory way, without any trouble.

During their walk, it was decided that they should go that afternoon to ask Mr. Bennet's permission; Elizabeth herself would speak to the mother.She wondered if her mother would approve.His mother loathed him so much that Elizabeth sometimes thought that even his property and status could not win her back, but whether her mother was firmly opposed to this marriage or she was ecstatic, her Speech is inappropriate anyway.Make people think she is ignorant.Elizabeth could not bear the thought of her either ecstatic approval or righteous disapproval of Mr. Darcy. That afternoon, as soon as Mr. Bennet entered the study, Mr. Darcy immediately stood up and followed him. Elizabeth was extremely anxious when she saw this situation.She was not afraid of her father's opposition, but she was afraid that his father would make things unpleasant.She thought that she was the most beloved daughter of her father, and if she chose this object, it would be too shameful for her to cause her father to feel pain and worry about her life-long events.She sat there apprehensively, and was not relieved until Mr. Darcy came back to her, smiling.In a few moments Darcy came up to the table where she sat with Kitty, and, pretending to admire her needle and thread, said to her softly: "Come to your father, he is waiting in the study." you.She went right away.

Her father was pacing up and down the room, looking at him with an expression that was both serious and anxious. He said: Liz, what are you fussing about?Are you crazy, why would you want this man?Didn't you always hate him? She was really anxious at this time.It would have been fine if she hadn't been so overzealous and rude in the past, and now there is no need to explain and confess so embarrassingly.But now, as it was inevitable, she told her father in a disturbed manner that she was in love with Mr. Darcy. In other words, you have made up your mind that you must marry him.Of course he has plenty of money, which can make you dress more noblely and drive more beautifully than Jane.Will this make you happy?

Elizabeth said: Do you think I have no affection for him, and have you any other objection? Not at all.We all know he's arrogant and unapproachable; however, that doesn't matter as long as you really like him. The daughter replied tearfully: I really like him, I love him.He's not unreasonably arrogant.He is so cute.You don't know what he really is, so I beg you not to make him up like this, lest I suffer. The father said: Liz, I've given him permission.For a person like him, as long as he persists and asks for something, of course I can only agree.If you have now decided to marry him, I am of course determined to allow you.But I advise you to think again: I know your personality, Liz.I know that unless you can really respect your husband and consider him superior to you, you will not be happy or proud.With your great talents, it is extremely dangerous to get married inappropriately, and it is very difficult for you to escape a humiliating and miserable end.My dear boy, don't make me feel sorry for you after seeing you despise your life partner.You gotta understand it's no joke

Elizabeth was still more moved, and answered him very earnestly, very seriously; afterward she repeated several times that Darcy was indeed her choice, that her respect for him was increasing, and that she trusted his feelings. By no means did it grow overnight, but it was put aside for several months and tested; and she tried her best to praise his various fine qualities, which dispelled his father's hesitation and fully approved of this marriage. When she had finished, he said: "So, my dear boy, I have no other objection."If so, he is indeed worthy of you.Liz, I don't want you to marry someone who doesn't live up to that standard. In order to make her father feel more fond of Mr. Darcy, she told her father about his volunteering to rescue Lydia, and his father was greatly surprised. Today is full of surprises!It turned out that everything was due to Darcy's great efforts. He single-handedly brokered their marriage, lost money for them, paid the guy's debts, and found him a job!It couldn't have been better.How much trouble has been saved and how much money has been saved.If your uncle did it, I'd have to pay him back, and I probably have; but these young men who love and love love everything their own way.If I propose to pay him back tomorrow, he will definitely brag about how much he loves you and loves you, then the matter will be over like this. Then he remembered how embarrassed she had been when he read Mr. Collins' letter to Elizabeth the other day; If any young men come to propose to Mary and Kitty, bring them in, for I am idle. Only then did Elizabeth let go of the big rock in her heart. After staying in her room for half an hour to make up her mind, she went to stay with everyone with a calm expression.All the joy and joy came too suddenly, and the afternoon passed in such a pleasant way; there was no more serious matter to worry about now, but it was safe and gracious. When her mother went into the dressing-room in the evening, Elizabeth went with her, to tell her the important news.Mrs. Bennet's response was excellent.When she first heard the news, she just sat quietly without saying a word. After a while, she understood her daughter's words and vaguely understood that another daughter was going to get married. How many benefits are there at home.Only at last did she fully understand what was going on, and she fidgeted in her chair, getting up, sitting down again, amazed, and blessed herself. Thank goodness!Thank goodness!And think about it!God!Mr Darcy!Who wants to get it!Is this really the case?Liz, my darling, you're going to be rich soon!How much money for sewing, how much jewels, and how many carriages will you have!Jane is too far behind in comparison, it is heaven and earth.I'm so happy so happy.Such a lovely husband!So handsome, so massive!Oh, my dear Liz!I hated him so much before, please go and beg him for mercy on my behalf!I hope he doesn't count.Liz, my sweetheart, my darling.He has a big house in the city!Beautiful things all in one place!The three daughters are married!An income of ten thousand pounds a year!Oh my God!I couldn't be happier.I'm going crazy! These words proved her complete approval of the marriage; and Elizabeth was glad that she was the only one who heard her mother's triumphant remarks.Soon she came out of the room, but she had not been in her room for three minutes when her mother came again. My mother cried out: My dear, I can't think of anything else in my head!An income of ten thousand pounds a year, possibly more!It's as rich as a royal relative!And there is also a licensed marriage certificate. Of course you have to use a licensed marriage certificate to get married.But, my darling, tell me what is Mr. Darcy's favorite dish, and let me prepare it to-morrow. This remark was not a good omen, and it seemed that her mother would make a fool of herself in front of that gentleman again tomorrow; Elizabeth thought that although he had already won his love with certainty and the consent of the family, it might still be unavoidable.Happily, things went very well the next day, thanks to Mrs. Bennet being in such awe of her future son-in-law that she hardly dared to speak to him, but only tried to offer him some courtesies, or flattery. Take a look at his spiel. Elizabeth was satisfied to see her father, too, endeavoring to be near him; and Mr. Bennet soon told her that he had grown to think more and more of Mr. Darcy. He said: I am very proud of all three sons-in-law, and Wickham is perhaps my favorite; but I think your husband will please me as much as Jane's husband.
