Nineteenth-century London, the streets, chaotic and dirty.

And there is an area that is even more chaotic and even full of sin.

Thieves, prostitutes, gamblers...... All the disgraceful low-level characters fill this area.

Lydia runs all the way out of Mr. Gardner's rented hotel, following her memories and finding this dark corner.

She wore a dress that was obviously out of place for this place, and her whole person was self-willed, completely different from those prostitutes who flirted with their flirtatious manners.

On the way, I don't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at her, and some people were ready to move.

Unbeknownst to Lydia, there's only one thing on her mind: find Wickham and marry him.

As for what her sister and uncle said, she didn't believe it at all.

Of course, during the elopement, Lydia also discovered that Wickham was not as good as she imagined.

But, so what?

He's handsome, he'll say nice things to coax her, and he'll do a lot of new things she doesn't understand.

That's enough.

Lydia had long been tired of the remote, isolated Longboun, and preferred the bustling city of London to the small village where the ball was attended by only twenty or so families.

and the flattering and flattering appearance of the men around him, which made Lydia's vanity the greatest satisfaction!

And Wickham is her ideal lover.

How popular Mr. Wickham was at Meriton, and all the ladies and ladies liked him.

Even her smart, excellent second sister Elizabeth was also attracted to Mr. Wickham.

Lydia was almost stupid in ignorance, but in some ways, she wasn't stupid.

She knew that of the five young ladies of the Bennet family, the most dazzling were Jane and Elizabeth.

And she, Lydia, in addition to being young and beautiful, has no talent that can be praised.

has no talent, let alone a rich dowry, but she is such a person, but she can make the public lover Wickham favored!

Truth be told, the moment Mr. Wickham professed his love for her, Lydia was thrilled.

There was a hint of pride in her heart - the good Elizabeth couldn't get Mr. Wickham's heart, and she Lydia did!

Therefore, she will never give up on Wickham, even if he is a gambler in the mouth of some people.

“...... So, you're going to marry Wickham anyway?"

Mr. Bennet, who had arrived at the news, found Lydia at a dilapidated inn according to the address provided by Mr. Darcy.

Mr. Bennett lost his usual humor, and he looked very depressed.

I have to say that Lydia's elopement hit him hard.

Elizabeth had reminded him to restrain Lydia well, but he was still careless.

Perhaps in his opinion, although Lydia is stupid, she is not very bold, she is just a little vain and ignorant.

Mr. Bennet prides himself on seeing through everything, but he does not understand his own daughter.

It wasn't until it was confirmed that Lydia had eloped that Mr. Bennet realized how derelict he had been as a father all these years!

He knew that his two little daughters were not smart enough, willful and selfish, but he did not discipline them much, but let them mess around.

He even gets fun complaining about his daughters' stupidity!

So, no matter how bad a Lydia is, Mr. Bennet has nothing but remorse and self-blame.

For the first time, he even had a good conversation with his little daughter in front of her: "You must know that Mr. Wickham is not a good marriage partner!"

"Dad, I love him and he loves me too!"

It was also the first time that Lydia was in front of her father, raising her head and chest, stalking her neck, and shouting loudly.

"......" Mr. Bennet knew that he couldn't convince Lydia at all.

Well, since she has to get married, and there has been an elopement scandal, the best solution is to let her marry Wickham.

Mr. Bennett was very decisive and went straight to Wickham and said that he was willing to let them marry.

However, to Mr. Bennet's surprise and expectation, Wickham did not want to marry Lydia at all.

"Lydia is a lovely young lady, but, sir, as you may already know, I owe a large gambling debt......" Wickham had a rogue look on his handsome face.

Mr. Bennett resisted the urge to swing his fist, and he understood that Wickham was trying to blackmail the Bennett family, just as he had suspected.

"Lydia only has a dowry of a thousand pounds," he said in a deep voice. But if you get married, I can give her an extra five hundred pounds!"

"No, no, no, sir, I don't think you understand what I mean. In addition to the five thousand pounds of gambling debts, I also wanted to get an errand, well, old Mr. Darcy had promised me a priesthood. ”

Mr. Wickham held up a finger and shook it triumphantly in front of Mr. Bennett.

"Now, I want Mr. Darcy to make good on that promise of his father. ”

"I also hope that the Bennets will give Lydia the dowry she deserves. ”

Mr. Bennet knew that Wickham was greedy, but he still didn't expect this man to be so aggressive.

He understood his meaning too clearly, and if he wanted him to marry Lydia, then the Bennett family would not only pay off his gambling debts, but also find him a decent job, and give him a dowry of a thousand pounds.

"This can't be!" said Mr. Bennet, with a calm face, in a cold voice.

Wickham's conditions, not to mention that he can't do it, even if he can do it, he is not willing to agree.

Because Mr. Bennet knows that for a person who gambles indiscriminately, as long as he is contaminated, he will not be able to get rid of it for the rest of his life.

In the future, Wickham will be like a vampire, lying on Bennet's house, desperately sucking blood!

"Then we have nothing to talk about. I hope you can convince your daughter that to be honest, I never intended to marry her, and I didn't think about taking her with me on this trip, she had to follow me!"

"If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been exposed. My creditors have heard the news, and they will be coming soon...... In that respect, Lydia dragged me down. ”

Wickham is not lying.

There was also a hint of helplessness in his scoundrel tone, and he shrugged, "I didn't plan to come to London, I wanted to go to other regiments, but because I was accompanied by Miss Lydia, I had to change my plans!"

MR BENNETT: ......

Although he was angry at Wickham's contempt for Lydia in his words, he must also admit that if you think about it from Wickham's point of view, Lydia seems to have really ruined Wickham's plan.

Also, a little white face like Wickham, changing places and finding another corps, may be able to repeat his experience in Melitun.

With his handsome face, witty conversation, and status as an officer, he is likely to deceive a simple and wealthy young lady and solve his financial crisis.

But with Lydia, the Bennett family tried their best to find him, and his various bad deeds were exposed, and with the divine assistance of Mr. Darcy...... Hehe, Wickham simply broke the jar and broke it, no longer pretending!
