live with conscience

Chapter 159



Chapter 159

The gathering at Netherfield Gardens was held as scheduled, as if they were cursed. After arriving at Netherfield Gardens, various events began to take place one after another.

Not to mention the various daily exchanges between Bingley and Jane, and the peach blossoms around Darcy and Elizabeth, but on the third day of the stay, Jane was still injured.

She didn't fall ill in the rain, but because she was protecting Elizabeth, she accidentally sprained her foot. According to the doctor's judgment, she needs to rest for at least a week.

The instigators, of course, are those Darcy suitors.

Even with all the obstacles, the two destined lovers at Netherfield are getting better.

Although they haven't reached the point where they are talking about marriage, they already have a little bit of mutual understanding.

After getting along, several competitors have to admit that Elizabeth Bennet is a very knowledgeable, self-cultivated, beautiful, and kind lady. Even as a competitor, they can't hate such a nearly perfect woman. girl.

The traversers are clear that the root cause of all this is that the Bennet family has a male heir, and the old Bennet has the motivation to work hard.

The improvement of economic conditions has made the family of the country gentry, which was not low in status, even richer. For the sake of the children, there is nothing lacking in education.

There are no stupid kids, only lazy kids.

What is the educational investment of the rich in this era?Miss Bennet's fourteen prestigious graduates, experienced tutors on call at any time, told everyone what kind of top education they received.

Even if they were guests at Netherfield Manor, half of their teachers followed, which shows how tightly education is held.

Although they knew the reason, the result turned out to be that Miss Bennet's knowledge reserves were better than those of the time travelers who survived the college entrance examination and became college students, so it was a bit of a shame.

After Elizabeth finally found a safe way to separate herself from the group of "admirers", the sisters discussed history, philosophy, and poetry with Darcy and Bingley.

These "hating" people don't seem to get along very well.

For these, except for Rose Black who has dabbled and can keep up with the topic among the traversers, everyone else is embarrassed.

However, as the only one who is worrying about how to return to her own world, of course she has no idea of ​​preventing the hero and heroine from being together.

After a period of precipitation, she no longer blames them, everyone has their own choice, and she has no right to intervene.

Besides, it is not without reason that they are indifferent. After arriving here, the environment makes everyone's status more superior.

As for the "way" to go back, none of them can do anything.

It stands to reason that if she dies again, she might find her way back home, but Rose really doesn't have the courage to give it her all. It's okay if she succeeds, but if she fails, she will have nothing, so she might as well stay here.

Rose has no choice but to focus all her attention on the hero and heroine. Since they are the center of the world (I think), just like the game clearance copy, after the plot is over, will she have a chance to go home? Appear?

Therefore, she is the only one among the traversers who is keen on advancing the relationship between the male and female protagonists.

Especially after getting along and discovering that Elizabeth is even more excellent and beautiful than in the original book, the two have become close friends who talk about everything.

At the beginning, rehearsing a stage play of Pride and Prejudice was nothing more than admiring the personality of the heroine Elizabeth, and felt that the two had very similar concepts.

There will be such an opportunity to become friends, which can be regarded as a harvest in misfortune.

In short, in Rose's eyes, those self-righteous boys are not worthy of Elizabeth.

Compared with the single-minded Darcy, they are like playing house.

Those love words, love letters and vulgar vows, what is it that you are the only one in your life, and you will only love you forever?

Pooh!

In this day and age, there is no such thing as divorce. The only way to pursue a lady is to get married. They are all married. Is this something that should be done?

Coaxing a girl with the responsibilities and obligations that should be obeyed, there are too many slots, and she doesn't want to talk anymore.

Do they really think that traveling through time is the kind of time-traveling stallion upgrade?

What a face!

Especially her ex-boyfriend, Tang Mu, unexpectedly, she also misjudged him. At first, he thought he was Darcy, but now it seems that he is just a playboy who has to wear Darcy's skin.

You have the audacity to seduce others in front of her, do you really think she is stupid?

Siblings?

Whether they are real brothers or sisters, he doesn't have a clue in his heart?

It's just a scumbag who is confused by money and status.

Therefore, Rose is really desperately dragging her feet and not explaining.

As for Darcy?

Obviously, the concubine is interested, but she still puts her face towards him in a daze, does she want to be slapped in the face or does she want to be slapped in the face?

These people are crazy!

Unlike Rose's free and easy, the mood of the other two girls is not very good, their goal has always been the hero Darcy, out of a sense of security, Darcy is the only good man they know, of course they have to fight, They were willing to grit their teeth and admit it when they lost to their own people, but even after time travel, they still lost to the heroine, and they couldn't accept it.

Even if Elizabeth does have the talent to convince them, reason and behavior are always separated. Even if reason tells them that they should stop and admit defeat, they often will not admit defeat in action.

Before time travel, they couldn't compare to Ronaldinho who played Elizabeth in everything, after time travel, they still couldn't compare, no matter their status.

Now, not only Ronaldinho, but even the heroines are no match. Under such unwillingness and jealousy, they took action against Elizabeth.

Just after the rain, the excited party decided to visit Netherfield Garden together after dinner, so they took a walk in the garden together.

The garden after the rain has a unique scenery, even the stone-paved ground has some silt and fallen leaves, which makes walking a bit inconvenient.

The incident took place above a staircase in Netherfield Gardens.

It's a bit too much to say, they just walked side by side with Elizabeth, and when they saw that Elizabeth was about to slip, they subconsciously backed away, and even patted Elizabeth's hand, which was instinctively trying to grab something, in vain That's all.

Although the height of the steps is almost negligible, there are still many sharp branches and gravel in the mud under the steps. If you fall down like this, the consequences can be big or small.

Jane walked in front of Elizabeth and the others. When she heard Elizabeth screaming, she turned around. When she saw her sister who was about to fall, she reached out and grabbed her without hesitation. At the same time, because she was not standing very firmly, she was almost caught by Elizabeth. Take it, and rush forward.

But even so, she held Elizabeth tightly.

Fortunately, Mr. Bingley, who was side by side with Jane, reacted quickly and hugged Jane without hesitation, giving Mr. Darcy, who was walking behind, time to take two quick steps, and supported Elizabeth who was lying on his back.

At this point, a danger is invisible.

But even so, Jane was sprained because of this, and was carried back to the room by the impatient Mr. Bingley.

Elizabeth, who was still in shock, followed Mr. Bingley carefully, accompanied by her sisters.

It wasn't until the family doctor diagnosed that it was just a sprain before holding Jane, and he was relieved.

"Pity my weakened nerves!" For some reason, Elizabeth's mother, Mrs. Bennet's catchphrase immediately came to mind: "It really scared me, Jane, fortunately, no bones were injured."

As the elder sister, after comforting her sister, Jane formally thanked the two gentlemen who helped her: "I am really grateful to Mr. Bingley and Mr. Darcy. If it weren't for your timely rescue, our sisters would have suffered terrible injuries today. "

Darcy's eyes met Elizabeth's eyes tacitly, and then separated immediately: "No matter who it is, it will come forward in this situation."

To be honest, when he just made the move, he didn't think so much at all. Now when he saw the shy blush on the face of the lady he liked, he was glad that she was safe and sound, and he couldn't suppress the secret joy in his heart.

After all, when the accident just happened, several other competitors were beside him!

Perhaps it was his progress with Elizabeth that made this group of strange people feel threatened, and they seemed to be guarding against him collectively.

When he was in Bennet's house before, because of the short time, he paid too much attention to Elizabeth, so he ignored the weirdness of this group of competitors.

Now when they live together, this kind of weirdness comes out. What they are full of is a strange sense of disobedience. Although they have tried their best to conceal it, the feeling of being incompatible with the world's concept still emerges from time to time. .

In fact, looking at a single person separately, people feel that they are just personal rebelliousness and restlessness in the status quo. After a while, it is just cynical customs. Humanoid brings more benefits.

But when such people gather, it is a disaster.

Now in front of him is such a group of "unique" people down to the bone, Darcy no longer knows what to say.

A single candle brings a dim light, a few candles put together can bring people a comfortable light, but if you add a glass cover to turn it into a lamp, it will be bright enough for people's eyes It hurts.

This is Darcy's most real feeling.

Talking with a group of "lunatics" all the time, the "lunatics" also released an inexplicable sense of superiority towards him from time to time, which made Mr. Darcy really uncomfortable.

Is it true that the Master is divided into groups?

However, for Miss Elizabeth's favor, Darcy endured it, and was very considerate when they pestered Miss Bennet and took the initiative to attract attention.

Darcy is not stupid. After a few days of getting along with each other, of course, you can find that the Miss Bennets are protecting Elizabeth in a group. Whenever Elizabeth appears in an unexpected place in the room, there is always a sister and a sister beside her. Lady of Netherfield.

Usually it was Mrs. Hess and Miss Blake, a few Caroline, or the governesses they brought along, and it was never the case that Elizabeth was left alone with the "wishers".

Anyway, as soon as Diana and Daisy or the suitors appeared, within a few minutes, it was a grand occasion where the host and guests were all present.

Darcy's evaluation is: Smart girls...ahem...men.

When Darcy distracted his attention because of Elizabeth's rare shyness, the treatment of his friend Bentley made Darcy very envious.

It was probably Mr. Bingley's undisguised worry and nervousness that successfully made Jane let go of her guard and showed him greater kindness. Under everyone's gaze, he gave him a cheek kiss as a thank you.

This is a bit too much for unmarried ladies whose relationship has not yet been decided, but it is also a way for ladies to express their approval for gentlemen.

After this move, everyone tacitly understood.

Mr. Bingley was heartbroken and blamed, but also happy. This kind of mood showed on his face, which was an unusually funny and distorted expression.

Anyway, it made the Miss Bennets on the side laugh. After a false alarm, the oppressive atmosphere in the room was swept away.

Diana and Daisy jumped at the chance and apologized very sincerely.

Diana curtseyed realistically, her expression and tone were very accurate: "I'm very sorry, Elizabeth, we didn't know what happened just now, really, it's fortunate that you have nothing to do, otherwise we wouldn't know what to do."

Daisy even put on a crying voice: "I'm really sorry!"

Elizabeth shook her head and forgave them with a smile: "No, no, it's not your fault. It's all because I was too obsessed with the scenery in the garden and didn't pay attention to the road under my feet. My scream at that time must be because I was scared. You guys, you were probably frightened by my screams, so you pushed me away subconsciously! This is just a normal reaction of people when they encounter danger."

There is nothing wrong with saying that, but with the contrast of the injured Jane, these words become ironic.

As the elder sister, Jane would rather fall together than let go, but they kept getting out of the way and refused Elizabeth's call for help.

Diana and Daisy suddenly didn't know how to answer the conversation.

They would rather have Elizabeth fight with them than such a generous forgiveness.

Sometimes, quarreling means caring, and there is a chance of redemption.

A polite and distant thank you means that you want to get rid of the relationship.

A friend in adversity makes sense everywhere.

Everyone present appreciated Elizabeth's response.

At this time, it is meaningless to continue to dwell on right and wrong.

But an accident, it can be seen that these two ladies are not as straightforward and generous as they appear.

It would be uneducated to pursue them. After recognizing their true colors, it is enough to directly list them as friends in the category of casual acquaintances.

The crisis just now, a small matter that could be solved as long as the two of them reached out at the same time, almost became difficult to deal with because of their avoidance and refusal. This kind of performance is enough to testify to the character of the two of them.

As the youngest lady on the scene, Delia joked about her sisters regardless of the embarrassing Diana and Daisy: "Jane and Elizabeth are both in such a mess, obviously Mickey (riding) teacher and Ken (Western sword) The teacher said that you are the most gifted in motor reaction among our sisters, tsk tsk... Today, the most gifted Miss Bennet, how does it feel to be defeated by the beautiful scenery after the rain and the fallen leaves?"

Jane shouted shyly and angrily: "Delia..."

Elizabeth, on the other hand, bowed her head in embarrassment: "It's a failure, but I'm the only one in the next class, and Jane probably won't be able to participate, really..." She made a fighting gesture and ran towards Delia: " At that time, it is time for you to appreciate my skills."

"Don't come here..." Delia immediately hid behind Jane.

In order to prevent the Misses Bennet from fighting in the room, Jane could only grab the two "naughty" sisters along the way: "Stop making trouble, it's nap time, let's not hinder everyone's lunch break."

Everyone who gathered in the room because of worry expressed their condolences clearly, and then took the opportunity to leave, leaving only Miss Bennet.

It seemed that everyone had forgotten about Diana and Daisy's apology, and tacitly brought this topic up.

After closing the door, each said goodbye to each other outside the door and went back to the room.

The worst still happened. Diana and Daisy obviously felt everyone's politeness and alienation towards them, especially their target Mr. Darcy. They left without giving them a farewell look.

What was even more irritating was that the classmates who were supposed to be companions also gave them condemning eyes when they left.

They really want to clarify, but they can't find the entry point and method of explanation.

Annoyed, he hated Rose who had a sarcastic smile when she left.

No way, among all the people, Ronaldinho, who decided to be a stranger to the big team, was the best to bully.

Now that I have come here, who is worse than anyone else? I thought she was lucky, even if she travels through time, she is still a noble lady, but I heard from Tang Mu that she is nothing but an illegitimate daughter of unknown blood. What are you proud of with your chin up!

The moment the door was closed by the Miss Bennets in the room, all the sweet smiles turned into Arthur's calm (cold) faces.

Brother Arthur is right. No matter who you are, no detail can be ignored. If you are not careful, it will become a fatal weakness.

Sure enough, they underestimated the enemy?

They obviously planned to defeat those weird people one by one in Netherfield, away from the Bennets and Mr. Black, but unexpectedly, the other party made the first move.

It's also to blame for the carelessness of this group of time travelers. When they were at Bennet's house, because of Jane's control over Bennet's house and the arrangements for the guests, as long as the time travelers were in public places, whether in the house Or take a walk, almost always under the follow of the servants (you can't neglect the guests), so there is not much time for group gatherings.

But it was different at Netherfield.

Mr. Bingley just leased the garden. Although there are servants, they are still too loose compared to Bennet's house. There are not enough manpower, so they can only operate barely. Therefore, they gave the traversers a chance to gather.

Coincidentally, Mary and Delia, who were hiding in the bushes, heard it right.

A group of people talked for an entire hour in a dialect they couldn't understand and with the same strong accent. Could it keep them from being vigilant?

Ms. Bennet, who has been attacked by hooligans, is very wary of outsiders. There is still this kind of inexplicable connection behind the scenes, a group of people who seem to have no acquaintance at all.

The father's partner, the mother's newly befriended daughter, the son of a nobleman and an excellent representative of the militia...

God, what is their purpose?

This is so scary!

It is the various responses of the over-compensated Miss Bennet in Netherfield Garden.

It's just that the Miss Bennets are all on guard, but they never thought that their methods would be so simple and rude?

Delia couldn't bear it anymore, bypassed Jane's injured foot, and threw herself on her body: "Fortunately, you guys are fine. It really scared me. What are they trying to do? So eager to disfigure Elizabeth?"

Mary hugged Elizabeth and made a reasonable guess: "Could it be that their goal is Mr. Darcy?"

Catherine directly retorted: "But it doesn't make sense. How do they know that Mr. Darcy will definitely take a fancy to Elizabeth? I remember that before they came, they didn't know that Mr. Darcy had also arrived in Braun. To get close to Mr. Darcy, Wouldn't it be more direct to strike directly at Mr. Bingley or Mr. Darcy's sister?"

Delia suddenly said: "Catherine, I think you are right, that Vikram seems to have already attacked Mr. Darcy's sister, but failed in the end, and now he is taking a detour... and wants to reunite with Mr. Darcy." It's all right."

But Mr. Darcy was a normal person, he didn't bother to pester him at all, and just ignored him.

"But even this is not the reason why they are eager to attack Elizabeth!" Jane was also very entangled: "Is it possible that the Turner family and the Darcy family have something that they covet? But, even ours Ancestor, there is no place to communicate with Darcy's family..."

In short, Miss Bennet's thinking is getting more and more crooked.

Before discussing the countermeasures, the dinner time came. They had no choice but to put on their sweet smiles again, and appeared at the dinner table collectively, continuing their "happy" guest trip.

To the surprise of the Miss Bennets, Miss Rose, the outlier (traitor) among the group of people, did not show up.

Mrs. Hess, who was seated in a hurry, was also very helpless: "When I ordered the maid to fetch Miss Black, I found that she was already in a coma with fever all over her body. The family doctor said that she had a fever. What a poor lady. She probably will take a walk with us in the afternoon. When it was time, it was hard to hold on!"

Under everyone's worried eyes, Mrs. Hess told her arrangement: "Don't worry, I have someone take care of her, and the doctor will stay here, everything will be fine, as soon as tomorrow, we can see Blake Miss is standing in front of us in good health, everyone should finish dinner first, I carefully prepared this..."

Mrs. Hess's good wishes were not tested. Rose Black had a fever for three days and three nights before she showed any signs of improvement.

Because of her illness, the whole Netherfield fell silent.

They are not in the mood for fun when a companion is sick.

What was even more frightening was that when she woke up, she screamed loudly at everyone, as if someone would hurt her in the next moment, and she refused to approach anyone except Mr. Black.

The diagnosis given by the doctor was that the brain was burned out and memory regression occurred.

Because of the shadow of the past, now she only remembers her elder brother.

This turn of events caught everyone by surprise.

Especially when traveling through small groups, this is not memory retrogression, it is clearly...

The original body is back!

Could it be that Ronaldinho has really returned to her original world!

No need to guess, Xiao Luo who wanted to go back was indeed sent back by Yan.

"Xiaolan, tell me, what will they choose next? But...hahaha...your sisters' brains are really ridiculous, even guessing that they are the enemy's spies...hahaha..."

Obviously, Arthur (Yan) had a lot of fun watching the big show at Netherfield, and now he manually makes it harder for them to add to the show. At this sensitive moment, he directly throws them back, and still gives them a debt. The systematic one, but this kind of small mistake, as long as she returns to her original world and does more good deeds, she can pay it off, so it's not worth mentioning.

What Lin Lan didn't understand was: "Why did you choose this moment to send that girl back?"

What a bad idea!

Yan's eyes rolled around: "I forgot before!"

Lin Lan threw him a pillow, I would be stupid to believe you.
