Chapter 1866 Arrogant Your Prejudice (9)

"Sir, Madam, here!"

The voice of the carriageman sounded, and Anne closed her eyes slightly and opened instantly.

"Mr. Wickham?"

Annie raised her tone and raised her chin slightly.

Wickham was still calculating how to get the money in his wife's hand, so when the coachman spoke, he didn't react for a while.

Hearing Anne's call, he came to his senses.

After all, he was a popular lover who made women coax women. Anne's call and look made him understand the meaning.

He quickly jumped out of the carriage, put on his wrinkled clothes, bowed slightly, stretched out his right arm, and made a "please" move, which was as gentlemanly as gentlemanly as he was.

Anne held his arm and slowly got out of the carriage.

When he came to the hotel rented by Mr. Gardner, Bennett and Elizabeth were also there.

Lydia's elopement finally had a relatively satisfactory solution, but the three of them still didn't look relaxed.

They knew very well that marrying a gambler like Wickham would be ruined for the rest of his life.

In this era, divorce cannot be done.

Once married, neither the man nor the woman can get rid of the other party legally.

In the upper class, couples can't live together and can separate.

But no matter how many years they have been separated, they are still in a husband-wife relationship.

But in the lower class, there is a way to break up the relationship between husband and wife.

That is "selling a wife", that is, the husband sells his wife like a goods.

This approach is definitely the greatest insult to women.

But in an era when there was no divorce law, it was sometimes the only way for women to escape from an unfortunate marriage.

Because the buyer is not necessarily another man, but also the woman's family, such as her parents, brothers, or even relatives.

But no matter what the situation is, it will be a great harm to women.

Of course, there are more women who can neither separate from their husbands nor "buy" back by their parents' family, and can only be controlled by the shackles of marriage.

Year after year, day after day, living a difficult and miserable life.

Mr. Bennett and Mr. Gardner are both knowledgeable and experienced elders, who are too clear about the nature of gamblers.

They can imagine what kind of miserable life will be like in the future.

Even Elizabeth, who has never seen the dark and miserable young girls in the lower class, is very unfavorable to the combination of Lydia and Wickham.

Impulsive love, willful elopement... When the passion fades away, only regret and misfortune awaits Lydia!

The three of them stayed in the living room with different thoughts. They were too addicted to their own thoughts, so when Anne and Wickham walked in, they didn't notice it for a moment.

"Good morning everyone!"

Anne greeted happily, her voice filled with sweetness and happiness.

Just like all young ladies who enjoy weddings.

Her voice woke Mr. Bennett and the other three, and they all looked at the newlyweds at the door.

"Good morning, Lydia, oh, and Mr. Wickham!"

Elizabeth reacted first and greeted him politely.

"Good morning!"

A few greetings made the atmosphere in the living room instantly liven up.

Anne was like a child who finally got her beloved toy, with a smile on her face, and she boasted to Mr. Bennet how gentlemanly and charming her husband was, and she showed off her wedding ring to Elizabeth.

Her words were even more proud: "Elizabeth, didn't expect that although I was the youngest among my sisters, I got married first!"

"By the way, where is your Mr. Darcy? He didn't come to show his gratitude?"

Anne vividly portrays the shallow, selfish, vanity and willful Lydia.

Elizabeth had a smile on her face and her expression was even more tolerant.

However, when she heard the name "Mr. Darcy", a clear pain flashed in her eyes.

With the fact that her sister and Wickham elopement, there is no possibility of marriage between her and Mr. Darcy.

Darcy knew the biggest scandal in their family.

This made Elizabeth feel that his family was not in good condition and felt deeply inferior.

Although she knew that Mr. Darcy was not such a shallow person, he had always distinguished her from the Bennett family very clearly.

But, she, Elizabeth, is the daughter of Bennett's family.

She and her family are inseparable.

The family reputation is shamed, and as a member of the family, she will naturally be affected.

Not to mention the grudge between Mr. Darcy and Wickham, Elizabeth felt that if she was Mr. Darcy, she would definitely not be willing to be a relative with a bastard who tried to abduct her sister!

Yes, if she married Mr. Darcy, then Mr. Darcy would become a relative of Wickham.

They may not meet often, but with this relationship, Wickham will certainly not give up on the opportunity to harass Mr. Darcy.

There is such a disgusting old enemy who comes to disturb his life from time to time. When you think about it, you feel that it is unfair to Mr. Darcy, and even a great harm!

Mr. Elizabeth Loved the Darcy, she did not want her lover to be treated like this.

So, she could only give up this relationship and sincerely wish Mr. Darcy to find a wife who is more suitable for him!

"Mr. Darcy is very busy and shouldn't have time to come!"

Elizabeth hid all the pain in her heart and said lightly.

Mr. Gardner frowned. He was really annoyed by Lydia's niece during his time in London.

This child was really spoiled by his sister.

I have caused trouble but I still don’t know.

Now, I have no shame at all, and I still have the nerve to mock Elizabeth.

She didn't think about it either. Why didn't Mr. Darcy, who had already been moved by Elizabeth, appear in front of Elizabeth at this moment?

Didn’t she get hurt?!

Mr. Bennett, not as angry as Mr. Gardner.

Because he was completely disappointed with Lydia's daughter.

Without expectations and treating her as a stranger, naturally there will be no too much entanglement.

He could even say to Anne in a sarcastic tone like he used to, "Lydia, oh no, it should be Mrs. Wickham. Are you so looking forward to seeing Mr. Darcy?"

"If I remember correctly, your husband, Mr. Wickham, has all been paid back by Mr. Darcy!"

Although that money was borrowed by Mr. Bennett in his own name.

But this does not prevent him from using this to "remind" his daughter and son-in-law: You owe a large amount of debt. As debtors, it is best for you to maintain minimum respect in front of your creditors!

But Anne seemed not to understand Mr. Bennett's implication, but said dismissively, "Isn't it just five thousand pounds, not a big sum of money. You know, our dear Mr. Darcy, earns ten thousand pounds a year."

"I haven't forgotten that because I knew he had such a high income, the entire Langboen girl was very moved by him. Even my dear sisters rushed to dance with him."

Speaking of this, Anne also deliberately looked at Elizabeth, and her meaning was simply too obvious.

Mr. Bennett and the other three looked a little unfair.

They really don’t like “Lydia”, she, she is so selfish and mean!
