Unexpectedly and reasonably, Elizabeth refused to dance with Mr. Darcy.

The reason is that at the last ball, she clearly heard Darcy's evaluation of herself, a young lady who is not beautiful enough, and the family can't let him look at it.

Elizabeth had no interest in ingratiating herself with an arrogant and arrogant gentleman, and she naturally declined his invitation.

Caroline nestled in the corner, and almost laughed out loud when she saw Mr. Darcy approaching with a blank face, and Elizabeth's uniqueness probably made Mr. Darcy deflated for the first time.

Ten seconds of distress.

"Why did the gentleman come here?"

"Miss Bennett probably doesn't want to dance with me." Darcy said coldly, "So, I have some doubts about Miss Caroline's words, and I still don't agree here. ”

Caroline shrugged, "I didn't mean to force you, sir, and you're fine with that." - But honestly, don't you think Elizabeth is cute? ”

Darcy was stunned for a moment, and then began to feel helpless when she heard her words, "Miss, I am not a person who only admires other people's looks, although it is indeed somewhat important. ”

Sky! Are you saying you don't look at your face?!

Caroline bowed inwardly, her face impassive, "That gentleman, you are really of noble character. After saying that, she lifted her skirt, "I think the two of us should be separated, the lady next to me is about to poke me through." ”

Then, without hesitation, she left, leaving Darcy alone, wondering whether Miss Caroline's words were compliments or sarcasm.

After the ball, Caroline went back to the manor, she used to be able to stand for a day during her internship, but that was also based on wearing a comfortable pair of mid-heeled shoes, and now, if she could wear these terrible shoes as before, it would be terrible, okay?

Charles looked at his sister's feet in distress, and quickly asked Mrs. Fafa to take the good ointment, "Speaking of which, this thing was sent by Miss Sarah." "Caroline has bad intentions.

Charles's face stinked, and he smacked her the top of the head, "Stinky girl, don't say Miss Sarah Hill anymore, okay!" Your brother and I have found you a very beautiful sister-in-law! ”

Caroline's eyes widened as she pretended to be innocent, "Who?" Brother, did you confess to others? Did they say yes? ”

Charles:............ QAQ, how can you dismantle my desk! At first glance, it is not biological!

Seeing this, Darcy on the side frowned, although he didn't like to interfere with his friend's thoughts, but some things were still clear to bystanders, so he cleared his throat, "Charles, do you really think that Miss Bennett thinks the same as you?" ”

Charles was stunned, "What does this mean?" ”

"I mean, that young lady is as much of a fan of you as she is for you? I met her three times, and she was very introverted and ladylike, and I couldn't tell exactly what she was thinking. ”

Charles's face trembled, with a look of "I'm heartbroken", and the Caroline people who watched couldn't help but touch his smooth hair, "Charles, don't worry." ”

She glanced at Mr. Darcy, who was back in a letter-writing posture, and said to Charles, "Why don't we invite her to be a guest?" ”

"Great idea!" Charles's eyes lit up, and he regained his former vigor.

Darcy couldn't help but mend the knife on the side, "Wait. ”

"What's wrong? Can't you? Caroline asked, does she have to ask her brother's friends for advice when she assists her!? Mr. Darcy, is your true love my brother!?

Darcy was stunned by Caroline's gaze, frowned, and said, "No, it's just that Captain Cartel has come with his regiment these two days, and Charles and I are going to visit them tomorrow, so if you write to invite Miss Jane Bennett to come, Charles may not see him." ”

A certain large dog pulled its ears down again, and those who watched it couldn't bear it.

Caroline, knowing that she had misunderstood Mr. Darcy, smiled wryly, and said flatteringly, "Mr. Darcy, I think you could have come back sooner, and I invited Miss Bennett in my name and Louisa, so I can help talk to her." Charles, I'll help you find out first, we're all girls, we must have the same opinion! ”

Charles was overjoyed, "Really!?" ”

Louisa, who was sitting across from Mr. Darcy at some point, pouted unhappily, "Caroline, how can you help your confused brother!" You all know what kind of people their family is! Vulgar parents and sisters, and they have no property! How can you get your brother in touch with such a young lady?! ”

Caroline was stunned, she had to admit that Louisa was right, she just thought that Jane and Charles were in the original book, but she ignored the most essential and what she should be most concerned about at the moment.

Caroline hesitated, "That'...... Brother you? ”

Charles looked at her sadly, "Caroline......"

Caroline: ............

She thought for a moment and spoke, "Louisa, don't you talk about Miss Bennett, do you think it's time for you to consider the Hearst business with Mr. Hearst?" Listen to David, your only factory in London is going bankrupt too. "So, if you have time to force Miss Bennett, you might as well not gnaw at your brother's property first.

Although she quite agreed with Louisa's words, it was better for Charles to not listen to him at all_(:зゝ∠)_ and let him realize the gap between him and Miss Bennett.

Louisa's face turned red all of a sudden, it was okay for others to say this, her sister said it, but it was really a bit of a slap in the face, so what Caroline said was not too harsh, Luisa laughed dryly, and left under the pretext that she was sleepy and wanted to sleep.

Charles reacted half a beat slowly, "Caroline, why are you still in touch with David!! ”

Caroline: ...... Stupid Charles.

"Brother, didn't David get you promoted?! Now we're all in Meriton, and he's in charge of London! How do I know about the factory without contacting him—or have you been keeping an eye on Miss Bennett lately and forgetting about our factory? ”

Charles:...... QAQ

Seeing through what he was thinking, Caroline was speechless for a long time.

"That's it, although I'm actually starting to favor Louisa in my heart, but I think it's better to call Miss Bennett to take a look, after all, it's the young lady you like, brother, and I, as your sister, if I can't get along with her, it's all in vain, what do you say?"

Seeing Charles' desperate nod, Caroline relaxed and took a sip of milk, "Then, I'll see if Miss Jane Bennett really has the same affection for you as her brother, and if so, then how about we consider her annoying relatives and not very good status?" She glanced at Mr. Darcy, as if in response to what he had just said.

Darcy felt his gaze look up and nodded lightly at her in agreement.

Caroline breathed a sigh of relief, "After all, I'm hoping that my stupid brother Charles can find his sweetheart—and to be honest, Sara and you are actually quite a good match." ”

Charles was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, he felt that he was happy to have such a sister.

###

The letter was quickly written, and the servant took it to Bennett's house, and it was written that Louisa and Caroline had invited Miss Jane to be a guest, and Louisa was angry when she found out, and said, "I didn't want to invite her!"

Caroline was helpless and said sister, you don't care, I'll entertain her when the time comes.

Luisa is still unhappy, Caroline feels that her sister is becoming more and more like a child, it seems that because she has not had too many childhood memories, she has been taking care of her and Charles since she was a child, so she has exploded together now, and she can't wait to be petty enough.

"Anyway, Meryton has a militia regiment and has been here all winter, so if Luisa is not happy to stay here, why don't you go to the street and have a look? It's going to be a buzzing time. And the people in the town say that the hat shop has a new product, so you might as well go and check it out. ”

Louisa's face looked much better, and she felt that her sister still cared about her, so she said awkwardly, "No matter how good it looks, it's just like that, you know that things in London are better, and what kind of silk hat you got is all ordered at once, and I haven't seen it yet......"

Hearing her whisper, Caroline laughed, "Okay Luisa, I left you a hat and dress early, and I didn't show it to you in a hurry, but now it has been sent to your house, and you will definitely see it when you go back." ”

"Really!?" Luisa's eyes widened.

"Of course. Also, the hats here have a rustic twist, so you might like it. ”

“…… Then I'll reluctantly agree. Luisa snorted, turned around and went out.

"Remember to take Sissi and ask her to help you carry your things!"

Caroline herself was left in the manor, Mrs. Fafa and a few servants didn't know what to do in the kitchen, the gardener was pruning the garden, wanting to make a gorgeous effect, and the only maid Sissi who brought to Netherfield Manor was taken away by Louisa, so Caroline was a little bored.

She looked at the sky, and it seemed that it was about to rain, and Luisa should have an umbrella, so there should be no problem.

That's right, Miss Bennett!

Caroline was stunned, and immediately got up and walked towards the door, how could she choose such weather to let Jane Bennett come over!?

Charles knows if he's going to kill me QAQ

However, there should be a carriage...... Right?

Just as Caroline was looking around, she saw a girl on a horse running in the rain, and Caroline was startled, and immediately called a servant, told him to pick up his umbrella and rush out.

"Miss Jane Bennett!!" She stood in the doorway and looked around, and was relieved to see the servant hand Bennett the umbrella and lead her horse into the manor.

"Miss Bentley......" Jane Bennett's lips were a little pale, but her cheeks were very ruddy because they had just been exercised, and she was wet from the rain, and she was a little wolfy.

She looked away in embarrassment, feeling embarrassed and embarrassed in front of Miss Bingley.

Caroline couldn't do much about it, all she knew was that she had to let Miss Bennett have anything to do, or she would have to be nagged to death by Charles.

"Miss Bennett, come in, I'll ask Mrs. Fafa to find you a change of clothes, and you go take a hot shower!"

Jane Bennett was surprised by the resolute young lady for a moment, and then smiled softly, "Thank you very much." ”

She thought that all the young ladies in the city were arrogant, but it turned out that she was a very good person, just like her brother Charles.
