Little Mr.
Jenner glanced at Miss Bingley and Mrs.
Hurstow as if they were idiots, and the mockery in his eyes was so obvious that he almost wrote the words "a bunch of ignorant humans" on his face.However, he knew in his heart that this was probably what most people thought.Even the old men of the medical school scoffed at their father's views, not to mention the ordinary people who did not understand science?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but have a little more affection for Elizabeth and Miss Manley, and the tone of his speech to Miss Bingley was also a little calmer: "Biological science is not acceptable to most people, it's me who plays the piano to the cow, I'm sorry." ”- Obviously, apart from the tone, there was no calming in his words themselves.Miss Bingley blushed with rage.Little Mr.
Jenner looked at her again as if he were an idiot: "Allow me to take my leave, miss, and I think it would be better for me to go upstairs to my study and accompany my father." ”Without a moment's hesitation, he left."
Please stay, little Mr.
Jenner!"
Elizabeth said in surprise suddenly.Little Mr.
Jenner paused and looked at Elizabeth with questions."
Mr.
Jenner is at Nigerfeld Manor right now?""
Yes, Miss Bennett.""
Can you—can you lead me to it?"
The author has something to say: remember the Gloucestershire friend mentioned in chapter 3 who wrote to Darcy?
It's Mr.
Edward Jenner himself!
Author: It feels like the whole world is bullying Miss Bingley series......
Soon, Wickham and Collins will appear soon, and Miss Bingley will not be alone (bullied) soon~ Note: 1.
Historically, Mr.
Edward Jenner was born in 1749, and the discovery of cowpox was more than ten years earlier than this book.For the plot line, the time and character background of the historical events have been slightly changed~2.The information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia, and the latter part has adaptation components.3.
The content of the dialogue comes from Baidu Encyclopedia's external citation data, and the original words are taken from the controversy in the medical community about Dr.
Jenner's research.Chapter 11 Best Mom "I'm sorry, my father said he doesn't want to see guests right now. ”Mr.
Jenner Jr. came down from his study and explained with some regret, "My father did not like to be disturbed when he was thinking. ”"It's okay."
Elizabeth was not offended at all, after all, this scientist was different from ordinary people's habits, and she had felt it deeply in her previous life.Then she asked, "There is a big dairy farm in Bennet's house, I wonder if Mr.
Jenner would like to visit it?"
There might be some interesting samples. ”"Where is it?""
It's in Langborne, sir, only two or three miles from here.""
That's great, next week my father and I are idle and have nothing to do."
Mr.
Jenner Jr. readily agreed.Of course, the drunkard does not mean to drink.Mr.
Jenner has visited countless ranches, and is clearly no slouch of Panfu.Mr.
Jenner Jr. agreed, firstly, to make up for his father's refusal to see Miss Elizabeth; Second, naturally, he has a good impression of the Bennett sisters and doesn't mind having a deep friendship with them."
Miss Bennett, may you invite me along?"
It was Mr.
Elton, who had a sense of urgency because of Darcy, who clearly did not want to pass up any opportunity to communicate with Miss Elizabeth, and it would have been perfect if the business relationship between the two had been upgraded to a personal friendship."
Didn't expect Mr.
Elton to be interested in ranches as well?"
Elizabeth quipped.Elton glanced at Mr.
Darcy, who was writing in the distance, and said, "Of course.If you see a lot of cars and horses in London, you will also miss the cattle and sheep in the countryside. ”"Then Mr.
Elton has come to the right place.""
That's for sure, I'm grateful to Charles for the invitation, otherwise I wouldn't have known about such an interesting place as Meriton."
What is even more grateful to Charles for inviting him to meet such an interesting girl as Miss Elizabeth, Elton said silently in his heart.The visit to the ranch was scheduled for the following Monday, and Elizabeth took her farewell to the people in the drawing-room, for the purpose of the trip to Nigerfeld Manor was to accompany Jane, and she could not have entrusted the "responsibility" entirely to Mr.
Bingley, even if he would have been more than happy to.
--Elizabeth spent most of the night in Jane's room.She was very pleased to see that Jane and Mr.
Bingley had grown so rapidly that they seemed to be close to exchanging hearts, though it would take outside help to make the two sluggish men understand each other's minds.But what made her even happier was that when she woke up the next day, her sister's illness was completely cured, and she herself showed no signs of cold.In this way, it shows that although the fate has not been completely changed, at least it has deviated from the original course.She is now finally beginning to believe that as long as she persists, the tragedy of her family will never happen again.After the heart was down, Elizabeth made an appointment with Mr.

Elton in the study early in the morning to discuss the matter of publishing."
Miss Bennett, I am very shocked to see your work, and allow me to express my appreciation to you once again.Pride and Prejudice – what a name!
I really didn't expect a 5,000-word short story to be so malleable. ”"Thank you, Mr.
Elton."
Complimented by the publisher, Elizabeth's hanging heart fell."
Miss Bennett, your writing is witty and humorous, and I'm sure readers will enjoy it.""
Thank you," she was a little embarrassed to be complimented, "sir, if you call me Elizabeth." ”Elton was stunned, the roots of his ears flushing inadvertently.Miss Elizabeth - what an affectionate title!
He was very happy to see himself and Miss Elizabeth gradually get closer: "Miss Elizabeth—" Elton's voice unconsciously softened, but he suddenly became a little serious when he thought of what he needed to talk about next: "What do you think about publishing?"
You are the author of this book and I would like to hear your opinion. ”"My manuscript has been sent to Tom, the editor-in-chief of Ladies Magazine," and "it was published in twelve insistries, for a total of two hundred pounds, and Elizabeth was pleased with the amount," and I wanted to publish it as soon as it was still hot at the end of the year. ”"No problem.""
Then the royalties—" The brother had already regarded Mr.
Elton as a friend, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed when talking about money."
Eight hundred pounds, Miss Elizabeth, what do you think?"
Eight hundred pounds?
This is less than she expected, after all, publishing is not like publishing in magazines, and the copyright of the entire work will be ceded to the publisher.Elizabeth's inadvertent slight frown couldn't help but make Mr.
Elton nervous, which he had never faced with a client before, and he quickly explained: "Sorry, Miss Elizabeth, I don't have the right to decide the royalties alone......
What he didn't say was that although Pride and Prejudice was excellent, it was from a new writer, and their publisher was not very optimistic.Originally, he was only willing to pay 500 pounds for the copyright, but the 800 pounds were reluctantly agreed to after he lobbied."
I know, thank you, Mr.
Elton, please give me a moment to consider—" As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door of the study."
Mr.
Elton, Miss Bennet," the servant subclaimed, "Mrs.
Bennet and the ladies have come to visit. ”--As for Jane's recovery, the only unhappy person in the entire Nigerfeld estate is Mrs.
Bennet, who has come from Ban House in the morning.She didn't want Jane's life to be in danger, but she didn't want her to recover so quickly that she was going home after just staying overnight.In Mrs.
Bennet's plan, Jane was to stay at the Nigerfeld estate for seven or eight days—preferably a few more heavy rains, and stay for more than half a month, so that she could deepen her relationship with Mr.
Bingley.Maybe he'll propose when he leaves, and Jane will never have to come back.However, the plan couldn't keep up with the change, and all she could do now was mutter: "Jane's body is too elastic, and she was in a lot of pain last night, so it doesn't matter at all now."
If it weren't for that, I'd have to nug you to take care of it for a few more days. ”"No hassle."
Mr.
Bingley didn't want Jane to leave so soon, "I'm sure my sister will be glad to do so." ”"Of course."
Considering Charles's face, Miss Bingley said coldly and slightly politely."
That's the good thing about living in the country," said Mrs.
Bennet, smugly, "and we have twenty-four of the Meriton and Lang Bourne that we usually eat, oh no, now there are twenty-five of the Nigerfeld Manor."
Even if a family only lives for one day and eats three meals, it will take nearly a month to finish. ”Mr.
Bingley would have laughed out loud had it not been for the presence of Miss Bennet, but his sister was not as sympathetic as he was[1].Miss Bingley glanced at Darcy with a rich expression, and then said slowly, "Then the old lady, you have gone to the city, and you can't go home for a year?"
”"You're right!"
Mrs.
Bennet, thinking that the whole world was revolving around her, was even more interested, "My brother and the Gardiners live in London, but they are near Zipsey.Zipsey, have you ever been there?
”Zipsey?"
Look at it," laughed Miss Bingley, "and it's wonderful. ”"Of course it's good!
But let me say that there is nothing big about London other than Zipsey's jewellery shop.The countryside was much more comfortable, with hunting grounds to hunt in, and red-uniformed officers stationed in the militia regiment—wasn't it, Mr.
Bingley[1]?
”"The city and the countryside have their own merits, but I think that after living in the countryside for a long time, I want to go back to the city, and I want to go to the countryside after living in the city for a long time.""
Isn't it?
Mr.
Bingley," said Mrs.
Bennet, apparently remembering only the second half of the sentence, "I advise you, that though the lease of the Ridgefield Manor is short, you must not be in a hurry to move out. ”"Old lady, you even know the lease period so well?"
The surprise in Miss Bingley's words seemed fake and exaggerated."

Of course!"
Mrs.
Bennet took this as a compliment, and said triumphantly, "There is nothing in Meriton that I do not know."
But that's not enough to make me proud, and I'm most proud of Jane.There was no other girl in the whole village who was more beautiful and gentle, and when she was fifteen years old she had a gentleman who fell in love with her and wrote a poem.Unfortunately, he didn't propose in the end – we all thought it was his loss. ”"Mommy......"
Mrs.
Bennet couldn't stop when she made a fool of herself, she didn't care about Jane's blushing face, and continued: "Actually, the eldest daughter of the Lucas family is not bad, and she can talk about anyone she sees at will, which is what I call a good upbringing, unlike some people who are self-righteous and refuse to say a word[1]. ”She glanced at Darcy obviously, and then at Mr.
Bingley, "It's a pity that Charlotte is so ugly, and the whole family is waiting for her to make the meatloaf."
Luckily, my Jane wasn't raised like that, and we were still able to hire a cook[1]......
"Mom......"
Jane was eager to find a hole in the ground."
Mother—" Elizabeth hurried downstairs from the study after receiving the servant's summons, but could not stop the old lady from making a fool of herself.Elizabeth's voice was sharper, and Mrs.
Bennet paused, a little unhappy: "Liz, you are used to being wild at home, you can't mess around here, don't forget that you are a guest[1]. ”"......"
This is really "distinguishing between right and wrong".Elizabeth was a little helpless, she didn't want to argue with her mother in front of everyone, so she came up with a way to save the country with a curve: "Manli, I see that you practiced in the piano room for a long time yesterday, do you want to reward everyone with some music?"
”She was playful and earnest, and succeeded in diverting everyone's attention from Mrs.
Bennet.Manly fully understood what Elizabeth meant, and chose a long Scottish piece.Mr.
Bingley invited Jane to a Scottish dance, and the tension in the room eased.Mrs.
Bennet had no one to talk to, and she did not dare to talk to Mr.
Darcy with a cold face, so she sat down boredly and discussed with Lydia and Kitty about the hat shop and the militia in Meriton.Miss Bingley walked up to Darcy with what she thought was graceful: "Mr.
Darcy, when will I be able to say hello to you?"
”Miss Bingley was a delighter in provoking Darcy and Elizabeth, often satirizing them for tying the knot and "praising the infinite benefits" that such a union would bring him[2].When Mrs.
Bennet created such a good atmosphere, she naturally intervened: "I think that there will be such an interesting mother-in-law at Pemberley Manor." ”Darcy gave Miss Bingley a cold look, "I didn't know that a lady's imagination could be so rich. ”Miss Bingley smiled, but still unwilling to give up the opportunity to taunt: "Why don't you invite Madame Zun to dance too?"
Then your future mother-in-law will be even happier to see it, a son-in-law who earns 10,000 pounds a year!
- must have been enough for her to brag about for a long time among the twenty-four families in the country. ”Darcy did not reply, but he was indifferent to the offer to invite Elizabeth to dance, which gave Miss Bingley hope.However, she knew that she was only an assist, and that it was Miss Elizabeth's wonderful mother who really worked, and she believed that even if Mr.
Darcy did not care about Elizabeth's "arrogance", he would eventually be disgusted with Mrs.
Bennett's unscrupulous words and savage stupidity.Miss Bingley did not mind further assistance: "I hope that in the future, when you wish for good things, you will advise your mother-in-law to be careful in her words and deeds, and not to speak nonsense in the presence of Madame de Baul."
Oh yes, and her relatives who were Zipsey merchants in London, they might give you a lot of jewels at your wedding, but you have to be more discerning, Zipsey jewellers don't have much of a good reputation[3]. ”When she said this, she forgot that her brother was also a businessman.Darcy gave her a cold look again, "Do you have any other opinions on promoting my family's happiness[2]?"
”"Yes.In your Pemberley Manor gallery, you'll need to add several portraits.The five Lady Zun sisters are bound to hang up, and perhaps their husbands from the militia regiment.Your mother-in-law speaks so vividly that I think few painters can capture her brilliance; Your father-in-law is very knowledgeable, and hanging next to him is not a lift.And Madame Zun—she likes to walk, and I think I must ask the painter to paint a few more lines of mud on the skirt—" "Also, don't forget Madame Zun's aunts and uncles, who I heard that they were lawyers in Meritun, and that they were the companions of your uncles and grandfathers who were judges—" "Thank you for your kindness. ”Darcy interrupted Miss Bingley with a cold remark.Enough is enough.He didn't want to hear her go on any longer, and now hearing anything about Miss Elizabeth would be torture for him.As Miss Bingley thought, Mrs.
Bennet's words and deeds greatly undermined his admiration for Elizabeth.Although the sarcasm in Miss Bingley's words could not be more obvious, it is undeniable that what she says is true.He thought of worldly opinions, of the expectations of his family, of his own class and of Elizabeth's background, and felt that from any point of view, if he were to unite with Miss Elizabeth, he would be ashamed of himself and his family.Mr.
Darcy wanted to get himself out of the way quickly, but fatally, his judgment and self-control were completely useless at this moment.His body was on this side of the living room, but his ears and eyes jumped uncontrollably towards the other end of the living room.He heard Elton call Miss Elizabeth.Miss Elizabeth - what an affectionate title.He saw Elton extend his arm to Elizabeth and very gentlemanly invite her to dance, and then the lady smiled back with a happy smile.The two looked at each other with a smile like this, and whispered something from time to time, and the atmosphere was warm.Darcy's brain told him that Mr.
Elton might be the best option for Miss Elizabeth—Elton was a businessman who would not dislike her father as a squire, and perhaps would be more tolerant of her mother's stupidity.His heart, however, was like a fire—every time the above thought achievously arose, it was immediately burned away by the jealous rage.Mr.
Darcy's face was pained, his eyebrows twisted together, and his lips as white as his skin.But he was trying his best to control it, trying to melt all those mixed emotions into his stomach and then digest them.Miss Bingley, however, seemed to feel that such pain was not enough, and she continued to mend the knife: "Poor Mr.
Darcy, it is evident that you are a step late, and Madame Zun has already begun to dance with others. ”"Miss Bingley, take note of the words," said Mr.
Darcy, who managed to suppress the devilish emotions in his heart, "who Miss Bennet dances with—none of my business. ”Independent?
Miss Bingley looked at Darcy again, and when she made sure there was no sparkle in his eyes, she smiled wryly.The voices they had just spoken were not loud or small, and Miss Elizabeth should be able to hear them just right.The author has something to say: Ding-Mr.
Darcy who is tempting on the edge of danger, welcome to the ultimate version of the Wife-Chaser Crematorium!
The author rubs his little hands: I won't abuse the official cp, please rest assured, little cuties.But please allow our Mr.
Darcy to silently struggle with the worldly concept and the family's expectations for a while, this is also a necessary process~ I think it's better to be entangled early, and it will be too late to be entangled when the marriage proposal is made.Note: 1.
There are many places in this chapter that are adapted from Chapter 9 of the original book, and I originally wanted to be more original, but unfortunately Austin portrayed Mrs.
Bennet too much and was reluctant to delete it.2.
Adapted from Chapter 10 of the original book.3."
Zipsey's jewelers don't have much of a good reputation" I made it up......
Chapter 12: Darcy's Troubles, Elizabeth seemed to glance inadvertently in the direction where Darcy and Miss Bingley were.Just this glance made Darcy's heart suddenly beat wrongly, and his body stiffened unconsciously.He seemed a little flustered, but he pretended to be calm, like a mischievous little boy who smashed a window and refused to admit it in front of his elders.Well—if she were her age in her previous life, she could have been Mr.
Darcy's elder.Thinking of this, Elizabeth didn't hold back, and laughed out loud."
What happened, Miss Elizabeth?"
Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Elton asked."
I thought about something from the past.""
Things from the past?"
Elizabeth blinked, "Please allow me to keep it a secret, sir. ”She glanced at Darcy again, then deliberately put away her smile under his gaze.- "Poor Mr.
Darcy, you are obviously a step late, and Madame Zun has already begun to dance with others. ”- "Pay attention to the words, Miss Bennet's affairs have nothing to do with me. ”Mr.
Darcy had a conversation with Miss Bingley, which she did hear.Miss Bingley, however, thought that Darcy's words would make Elizabeth retreat from arguing with her about Mr.
Darcy and the Pemberley estate behind him.But God knows that Miss Elizabeth's first reaction when she heard this sentence was: Mr.
Darcy is so merciful!"
I beg you to release me—" Elizabeth remembers vividly, as Darcy had said when he proposed in her previous life, "I am struggling in great pain, against my will, against reason, against the expectations of my family and against worldly opinions, to show you my love[1]. ”Compared with these unbearable words, how succinct, how merciful, and kind is the expression "Miss Bennet's business has nothing to do with me"!
Elizabeth only found it amusing and helpless.Of course, although she was not angry, the little pride in her heart did not allow her to forgive Mr.
Darcy like that.She needs to keep a straight face and express her dissatisfaction; occasionally glance at him indifferently, let him know that bad words hurt people, especially behind his back; She was also prepared to ignore him for the next ten or twenty days, this time to make him realize his mistake.Excessive arrogance does not belong to the category of gentlemen, but is a kind of rudeness, and it needs to be paid.
--Miss Elizabeth's attitude made Mr.
Darcy very uncomfortable.Because of his family background and family status, Darcy grew up surrounded by compliments from those around him.A good education made him erudite, but it also made him arrogant, and he did not look at anyone but his family.From the age of eight to twenty-eight, the women of the world only wanted to win his praise in their words, thoughts, and expressions,[3] and he gradually became accustomed to such superiority.Therefore, Mr.
Darcy originally felt that there was nothing wrong with him snubbing Elizabeth because of Mrs.
Bennet, and even thought that she would take the initiative to approach him, curry favor with him, and ask for his forgiveness.Who knew that the opposite was true—that Miss Elizabeth was now more cold to him, but more and more smiling at other men, and he himself was getting more and more uncomfortable.He didn't want to pay attention to her anymore, but his body was more honest than his brain; He often subconsciously wanted to talk to her, but his conceit stopped him again and again.Sure enough, it was the first strike, and the second strike was made by others.…… Mr.
Darcy's pain, tangles, and contradictions were only relieved after Miss Elizabeth left the Nigerfeld estate.In order to forget his suffering, he wrote many, many letters, because only when he wrote letters would his brain function normally, and he would not be trapped by love.Yet every time he sent and received letters, he could always see Miss Elizabeth and Mr.
Elton and even Mr.
Jenner Jr. exchanging letters.Miss Elizabeth - Miss Elizabeth again.Now the name pops up in his mind hundreds of times a day, and it's about to make him nervous and mentally vulnerable.No, before noon on Monday, such questions began to bother him again.- "Darcy, Miss Elizabeth has invited us to visit the dairy farm in Banfu, would you like to go with us?"
”"......"
"Don't go, thank her for her kindness for me.""
It doesn't matter," replied Mr.
Elton lightly, "that Miss Elizabeth has only invited Wilson and me, and I will not convey it to you. ”"......"
This is the Nth time Mr.
Darcy has been depressed.On the contrary, Mr.
Elton was in an unusually good mood.From last Thursday until now, he and Miss Elisabeth have finally finalized the publication.The royalty was still set at £800, which was lower than expected, but it was clear that Miss Elizabeth was very considerate of him, respected him, and thanked him for the extra £300 he had secured for her.It's a great pleasure to have your efforts recognized by those who care about them.Mr.
Elton sat in the carriage to Langburn and looked out the window at the vast country fields, and a smile gradually spread from the corners of his mouth to the bottom of his eyes.Unfortunately, however, the laughter was forced to stop when Mr.
Elton and Jenner arrived at the Ban House, where he found another carriage parked in the courtyard of the Ban House, apparently a male visitor.-- "I'm sorry, Mr.
Elton, Mr.
Jenner," said Elizabeth, apologetically as she greeted her at the door, "my cousin, Mr.
Collins, has come to visit out of nowhere. ”In fact, it was logically a premeditated and planned visit.Mr.
Collins is Mr.
Bennet's cousin and the legal heir to Mr.
Bennet's estate.The legal heir, as the name suggests, is based on a limited right of inheritance, and he has every right to cast Mrs.
Bennet and her five daughters out of the house after Mr.
Bennet's death, as he did in his previous life.Because of such a complicated relationship, Bennett's family was very unkind to him, and they never interacted with him.Mr.
Collins, however, chose to ignore the Bennets' exclusion outright.[4] He had written to Mr.
Bennet a month earlier, visiting under the pretense of repairing his father's relationship, but in fact he was secretly preparing to inspect his own estate.Mr.
Bennett didn't want to spoil the mood of his wife and daughters a month early, so he chose to tell everyone the bad news at the last minute.Elizabeth, of course, remembered the visit of Collins, an uninvited guest in her previous life, but she did not expect it to be such a coincidence, the same day she invited Mr.
Jenner to the dairy farm."
I'm so sorry."
Elizabeth apologized again."
It's all right, Miss Bennet," said Mr.
Jenner, very kindly, "I suppose we should come back another day, if it's inconvenient?"
”"Very convenient!"
Elizabeth hurriedly said that if the scientist was busy and didn't know when he was free, it would be more troublesome to make another appointment."

Of course, if you don't mind."
She then added."
No problem, miss.""
I don't mind at all."
Mr.
Jenner and Mr.
Elton replied at the same time that their father had no objection, and that Mr.
Jenner Jr. was naturally willing to follow."
Miss Elizabeth, I will be very glad to meet your cousin."
As a gesture of sincerity, Mr.
Elton added, only to see a look of embarrassment on Miss Elizabeth's face.He was puzzled until he saw this Mr.
Collins in the drawing-room.The author has something to say: tomorrow for a day off, see you on Saturday night for the next chapter, and everyone applauds to welcome the grand appearance of Mr.
Collins, the narcissist, and the end of Miss Bingley's villain SOLO time!
Note: [1].Adapted from Chapter 34 of the original book.[2]。
Adapted from Chapter 58 of the original book.[3]。
Adapted from Chapter 60 of the original book.[4]。
In the original book, Collins was not so bad cough cough, this is all the author's own YY.Chapter 13 The Out-of-Print Cousin "To the ugly man is cruel to look closely" - unless he is a patient, you have to change him; Or he's a bad guy and you're going to punish him[1].For Elizabeth, Mr.
William Collins clearly falls into the latter category.He is a 25-year-old young man who has developed well both horizontally and vertically, with horizontal development being more prominent.He was tall but fat, dignified but deceitful,[2] and full of contradictions.He was conceited and hypocritical most of the time, but he was still a priest, leaving the only modesty and prudence to the patron who promoted him, the Duchess of Cartesine de Baul.This time he came to inspect the property, and by the way to pick up a wife in the Ban Mansion to compensate his cousin and his own conscience, apparently with the approval of Madame Carterin.At this moment Mr.
Collins saw Elizabeth come in from the outside, and looked at her for a long time, undisguisedly.The temperament is some, but it is still Miss Bennet who is more beautiful, he thought."
Mr.
Collins."
Elizabeth nodded faintly."
Cousin!"
He called him very intimately, and people who don't know the truth may think that they have a good relationship, "Just now my wife said that you would take the three gentlemen to visit the ranch, and lunch has not yet started, so I don't mind accompanying you there." ”When he said this, he was completely in the posture of a master.I must have just checked all the furniture in the house, and I am very satisfied with the property that I can occupy according to the law, and now I am preparing to review the property rights outside the house together.Jenner and his son felt that the current situation was a little strange, but they didn't think much of it; But Mr.
Elton is a businessman, and his sensitivity to money makes him quickly guess what the problem is.He did not hesitate to choose to be on Elizabeth's side.Mr.
Elton raised an eyebrow, seemingly politely refusing for Elizabeth, "No, Mr.
Collins. ”He obviously underestimated the other party's narcissism and shamelessness.Mr.
Collins twisted his nose on his face, "I know that most people are always polite once or twice when they meet for the first time, and you should see my invitation as such."
But rest assured, this is no inconvenience to me, and I am glad to accompany my cousin and guests for a walk—what shall I call you, sir?"
”"Elton."
Collins' mind spun around, and his noble lady Carterine did not seem to have such a person in his mouth, so it was not worth befriending, so he turned to Elizabeth again: "Cousin, let's go." ”Elizabeth rubbed her temples and gave Jenner and Mr.
Elton an apologetic look.The dairy farm in Panghu, at the end of the backyard, made their way through patches of crops and fallow fields to reach about 60 acres of pastureland."
What a beautiful field, what a vast pasture!"
Along the way, Elizabeth communicated with the three guests, and Collins was left to dry, but this did not prevent him from praising his good mood of praising his property, "Cousin, dare to ask how much income is there in a year for such an estate?"
”"Two thousand pounds, sir."
Elizabeth replied truthfully, because even if she refused to answer, Collins, as the heir to the property, had the right to check the ledger himself, so it was better to tell him briefly and make him less noisy."
Two thousand pounds."
Collinton paused, unabashedly greedy in his eyes, "I'm glad that such an estate can bring in such a good income." ”"What breed of cow is this?""
English longhorn, sir.""
Looks very healthy," said Collins, as if understanding, not missing any place to flatter Lady Cartline, "but it is far worse than the ranches of Lady Cartline, and by the grace of Madame Carteline, I had the honour of being invited to take care of them for a day." ”Collins said this in a fresh and refined manner, and I am afraid that in his opinion, it is a glorious thing to make cattle and horses for Lady Carterine.Elizabeth glanced at him with a smirk: "Can I ask my cousin for help?"
”"Extremely glad," Collins did not understand the look of banter in Elizabeth's eyes, and emphasized, "I am very sorry for the infringement of your interests by my cousin, but rest assured, I am more than willing to make all possible reparations[2]. ”Elizabeth pretended not to understand: "What kind of interest is my cousin talking about?"
”"It's about my inheritance of Langborne's interests."
He was righteous."
Is my cousin really upset?""
Seriously, this is really a bitter thing for my cousins.""

If that is the case," Elizabeth smiled to herself, "my uncle is a lawyer, and I think we can go to Meriton and ask him if there is any plan to abolish such a limited inheritance." ”
