Elizabeth also likes to read novels, among which Miss Ghost's novel is her favorite, but Elizabeth never thought that the so-called "Miss Ghost" would be her rival!

Maria was now very glad that Mrs. Bennet, Lydia and the others had left, otherwise the whole of Hertfordshire would know that she was Miss Ghost in less than a day. And her worth of up to 100,000 pounds will definitely make some criminals target.

Bentley suddenly said: "I asked Darcy who instructed him to grow black tea in Darjeeling, India, and he didn't say it, but now it seems that this mysterious person is Miss Maria." ”

"Yes." Darcy looked at Maria gently and said, "Actually, the main reason why I was able to meet Miss Maria in India was to sell the Darcy family's property in India, including the land in Darjeeling. ”

"Oh my God! Darcy, it's shocking when you make a mistake! Once again, Bentley's focus was skewed.

Mrs. Hearst, who had just educated her younger brother not long ago, only felt tired, and after hearing this, Charles only felt this way! She felt that the inheritance left by the ancestors of the Bentley family had not been ruined by the silly brother to this day, thanks to Mr. Darcy's care.

Here, Mr. Hearst's focus is more normal: "All the families who grow black tea in Darjeeling, India, have made a lot of money, but the people who enter the Darjeeling black tea market after you are famous aristocrats." Mr. Darcy, you owe a good thank you, Miss Maria, for she has saved a great fortune for the Darcy family. ”

"Thank her, indeed." Darcy smiled at Maria.

Maria's cheeks were slightly red, according to her relationship with Darcy, the money of the Darcy family would also be her money in the future, and Darcy really didn't have to thank her too much: "You're welcome, I've taken the advantage." ”

Elizabeth suddenly asked sharply, "Maria, how do you know that Darjeeling is suitable for growing black tea?" "It wouldn't have been Sir William telling her anyway, after all, if Sir William had the ability, he wouldn't have relegated to Hertfordshire.

"I had some research on tea plants from the East, and it just so happened that the soil conditions in Darjeeling, India, were very suitable for the cultivation of black tea." Maria was annoyed by Elizabeth's relentless questioning, "So Miss Elizabeth, is there anything else you want to ask?" ”

Elizabeth's face became paler and paler, and she did not believe that it could be so coincidental, and that Mr. Darcy had deliberately revealed it to her in order to please Maria.

Thinking that Mr. Darcy had a long time ago in his love for Maria, Elizabeth's mouth was full of bitterness and she opened her mouth: "No, thank you Miss Maria for your doubts." "Her relationship with Maria is probably never going back to what it used to be, and maybe even Charlotte's friendship will be lost.

As it turned out, Elizabeth's concerns were not unfounded. Charlotte knew very well that she could have a good life today, and her sister Maria was a great contributor, and between Elizabeth and Maria, her choice would always be Maria. After learning from Mrs. Lucas that Elizabeth was trying to pry Maria's corner, Charlotte immediately removed Elizabeth from her friend's position.

After this experience, Jane felt that she had to recover from her illness as soon as possible, and it would be too embarrassing to stay any longer.

"Lizzie, I think you should have seen clearly after today's conversation that Mr. Darcy will not abandon Maria and choose you." Jane gently stroked her sister's black hair.

Elizabeth muffled, "It's my wishful thinking." ”

In the middle of the night, just when Jane thought she was asleep, Elizabeth spoke again: "Jane, am I not bad compared to Maria?" Sir William only prepared a dowry of 500 pounds, but Maria managed to accumulate a fortune of 100,000 pounds by virtue of her own skills. ”

Jane was also very envious of this, and Mr. Bennet only prepared a dowry of 2,000 pounds for her, which was so meager that she had little choice in the wedding market. And she had just learned that Miss Bingley also had a dowry of thirty thousand pounds, which made her almost more and more humble in this relationship.

"Lizzie, not everyone is as talented as Maria, just like Mary she also likes to read, although I don't know how many books Maria has read, but even if Mary reads so much, she probably can't write such a good novel." Jane thinks that Mary might be able to try her hand at writing, no matter how much she earns, and how much she can make up for her family.

"Mary, she will only read out some empty truths, where will write a novel." Elizabeth mentioned that this sister just wanted to sigh, "Mary doesn't have a great look, and she doesn't look good, and I'm really worried that my mother's words will come true." ”

"Our sisters can't inherit Longborn, and Mary is better married. It's all bad to blame me, if I could marry a good family early, you wouldn't have been delayed until now. ”

"Dear Jane, how can I blame you for this, it's obvious that those gentlemen are not worthy of you. If you look at Mr. Bentley, it's good, I have a hunch that you will definitely marry love this time. ”

"Married to love?" Somehow Jane thought of Mrs. Hearst's words, she now had no hope of marrying Mr. Bingley, "Lizzie, don't say such things again, Mr. Bingley's wonderful gentleman is not worthy of me, maybe I should listen to my mother......"

Elizabeth didn't expect Jane to suddenly change her mind, and sat up in fright: "Jane, don't listen to your mother's nonsense, you deserve to be cherished by any gentleman." ”

Jane shook her head and said helplessly, "Lizzie, I originally felt that I was not worthy of Mr. Bingley, but now I have just strengthened this idea. ”

Elizabeth knew that Jane had always felt that she was not worthy of Mr. Bingley, but she didn't expect Jane to want to give up: "Jane, don't you like Mr. Bingley?" ”

Jane's eyes dimmed, how could she not like it, but she just gave up after knowing that there was no result between them. At the same time, she also hopes to make Lizzie sober up through this incident, Mr. Darcy is indeed a golden beetle, but he belongs to Maria now, and Lizzie should not be mixed with it anymore.

Maria didn't expect that she would hear other people's whispers again today, the two sisters chatted without closing the door, hearing Jane's words, she felt a little sorry for this kind little girl, Jane was indeed a little cautious, but she was still kind in her heart, but because of the family relationship, Jane always had a little inferiority, so Maria was not optimistic about this pair at first.

As for Elizabeth, Maria felt that the other party would not give up easily, and Jane's kindness was probably going to be let down.
