Miss King in Pride and Prejudice

Chapter 14

Mr. Jin hugged his granddaughter who had grown taller after returning from school, and was very happy.Mr. Jin asked the chef to prepare a sumptuous meal to celebrate Serena's graduation and her return.

After the meal, Mr. Jin called Mrs. Sharon, and asked carefully about Serena's situation at school and her performance after leaving school. After learning that Serena was safe at school, although she was very sad to leave school, she was just a little depressed. It's all right, Mr. Jin is relieved.

At the same time, Serena called Butler Allen, and inquired carefully about Mr. Jin's physical condition and mood in the past six months. Butler Oren said that everything was fine. I was in a good mood after returning home, which made Serena feel relieved.

The reassured grandparents and grandchildren had a good rest that night. In the next few days, Serena has been clinging to her grandfather. Wherever Mr. Jin goes, Serena follows. Mr. Jin is also happy to be clinged to by his good granddaughter. For Serena Na's front and back are very cooperative.

The summer passed with Serena and Mr. Jin in such a beautiful mood.

This summer, Serena often visited Charlotte at Sir Lucas' house. The two who had never been strangers because of letters became closer. They found that their views on marriage and values ​​were very similar. The best Marriage is naturally admiration and marriage with a gentleman with some property; when the reality cannot satisfy this beautiful whole, then a gentleman with some property, even if they don’t have love for each other, but they don’t hate each other, and they can take responsibility for each other after marriage. It can last a lifetime; but the reality is so cruel that when you have to get married to avoid dragging down your parents and younger sister, even if you endure it, you have to marry a man with some property, so you have to work hard to adapt yourself and go through it good.This kind of cruel and realistic discussion for women caused a touch of sadness to envelop the two of them.

Charlotte's sadness is because she sees her own future, while Serena hurts others. She always thinks that if she is Charlotte, she has no choice, and the wisdom under the face of no salt cannot bring her happiness. Any benefits will make her more aware of her future. Sometimes being awake is not a happy thing, because understanding makes you unable to even dream.

"Charlotte, do you want to be my company?" Serena hesitated, but still asked.

Charlotte was stunned for a rare moment. She seemed to have failed to receive the message, and it seemed that Serena's proposal was completely beyond her expectations. Anyway, Charlotte failed to respond immediately.

"You can think about it carefully. I also think about it. Let me know when you think about it." Serena gave the two parties a buffer time, and Charlotte looked at Serena complicatedly, "I will take care of it." Think about it." Soon Serena said goodbye.

Back at Jin's house, when Serena was chatting with her grandfather, Serena mentioned what happened with Charlotte today, "Grandpa, can I ask Charlotte to be my company?"

It didn't occur to Mr. King at all, "If you want to ask for company, of course you can. Charlotte is a good girl, and she and her family agree to ask him if she wants, but can you tell grandfather what you think?"

"Actually... I don't have any special thoughts. Charlotte is such a smart person, but her future... I just want to give Charlotte a chance, a possibility other than marriage. Being my company, at least she can have With my own income, I have my own opportunities to choose, and I will definitely look around. She can meet more people. If she can meet someone who can see her beauty and wisdom, it is the best possibility. If not, she can live on her own without relying on her younger brother to become..."

Looking at the sad Serena, Mr. Jin felt distressed, but he became even more puzzled, "Although Charlotte's future does not look bright now, Serena, why do you take this matter so seriously? You're not the kind of kid who would get in the way, of course, I'm not saying you don't care about your friends, it's just that you don't involve your own children just because you care. "

"Grandfather, I would think, if I were Charlotte, would I be able to change my destiny? I thought about it for a long time, and I found it was too difficult, and I couldn't change it. Opportunity, a chance to change my own destiny, so I will give Charlotte a chance."

Mr. Jin patted Serena's head: "Okay, then give her a chance."

As for whether Charlotte will agree to be her company, Serena doesn't know the result, and she doesn't even care that much. She feels that giving Charlotte this opportunity is more like letting her relax, because if Liu Xueyi If it is Charlotte who crosses over, she will accept this opportunity, and that's enough.

The next day, Charlotte came to the King's house, and she promised to be Serena's company, and she had already obtained the consent of her parents.Serena thought that Charlotte might say yes, but she hadn't thought it would be that soon.As a result, Charlotte officially became Serena's companion, and became an independent person with an annual salary of 50 pounds, living in Jin's house for food, clothing and housing.

A smart woman like Charlotte has a very strong adaptability and gets along well with others. Her relationship with Serena has also changed. It’s not that she has become humble when getting along with Serena, she is still She is a dignified lady, but she is more respectful to Mr. Jin and Serena.During the day, except for going to Mr. King's study, Charlotte is almost always by Serena's side. Charlotte always knows when to be quiet and when to chat with Serena.Such Charlotte certainly fulfilled her request for companionship, but this was not Serena's original intention. One day, while having afternoon tea in the small living room, Serena said to Charlotte, "Charlotte, you don't need to be with me all the time. With me, you can also have your own time, Charlotte, you can do what you want when I am not going out or when no one is visiting, as if you are at home."

"Serina, I know you mean well, but I am your company, and I should be by your side. Is it because I did something wrong? I disturbed you."

"It's not like that, you're fine, but I just feel that it's a waste of your intelligence and it's not my original intention to restrain you."

"I understand, but this is what I should do, and I didn't tell you, I appreciate you, Serena, you let me be your company to help me, I can feel your kindness, so I It is more necessary to do what a companion should do.”

"So how are you doing here?"

"It's better than ever. I always thought that I didn't take my difficult marriage to heart. The result was just that I thought that this rock has been pressing on me. The future with no way out makes me desperate, but I have been trying to ignore it. Then you lied to yourself, you gave me hope, and I will go on the road. It is very good here, and the people are very friendly."

"Charlotte, it's those men who don't see your inner being. A gentleman will surely see your wisdom. Then you will reap your love and marriage."

"thank you for your good wishes……"
