Chapter 1880 Arrogant Your Prejudice (23)
Perhaps, she could pay for a book herself.
Mary knew very well that although she claimed to be a scholar, the ink in her belly was not as much as outsiders imagined.
If she had such talent, she would not be so inferior or so poor.
After all, if you read well, you can write some articles and earn some royalties.
She is not keen on current affairs, but she can try to write novels and scripts.
However, these Marys couldn't do it either.
Compared to relaxed literature, she prefers to read some obscure and difficult philosophical books.
Because ordinary people can't understand such books, she holds a thick book, which will make outsiders feel unaware of it.
In fact, in recent years, Mary has also tried to write some manuscripts, but unfortunately she has been returned!
"That's the past!"
Mary clenched her fists secretly, and a burning light flashed in her eyes: "It's different now-"
She has money, and now she can do many things that she never dared to think about in the past.
For example, if you pay for your own money to publish books, you will put a layer of gold on your talented woman’s name!
Mary was thinking about it, and Mrs. Bennett and Jane were still talking.
Then Mrs. Bennet asked excitedly and curiously, "Jane, my dear, what else did Lydia say in the letter?"
"Did she say what the new business is? Should she continue to go out to sea?"
"Oh my God, I don't want this to be the case. Ocean navigation is too hard and full of dangers. I don't think that my favorite Lydia might encounter any misfortune!"
Although the money is also very good, I have to admit that Mrs. Bennet loves her five daughters more.
In the past, she was so eager to marry her daughter, one for her daughter's lifelong happiness, and the other was that she hoped to find a rich son-in-law to solve the future crisis of property inheritance.
Now, with the 30,000 pound check, Mrs. Bennett felt that even if she was kicked out by Mr. Collins immediately, she would not be afraid!
Not only will she not be pitiful to rely on her daughter and son-in-law in the second half of her life, she can also live an extremely rich and happy life!
Therefore, she was not so eager for money.
She hopes that her daughters can be healthy and safe.
"Mom, don't worry, Lydia said that she will not go out to sea again, at least not in recent years."
Jane had read the letter quickly and raised her head, her beautiful and gentle face was filled with joyful smiles.
"As for the new business, Lydia just mentioned it, it seems that she is going to open a pharmaceutical factory."
Open a pharmaceutical factory?
Mrs. Bennett's eyes were full of questions.
It is said that some of their families are doing business and some are studying, but they have never had a doctor.
How could my little daughter suddenly think of running a very professional business like a pharmaceutical factory?
Jane didn't know the answer to Mrs. Bennett's question, and she guessed: "Maybe, she would have any adventures when she went out to sea."
Mrs. Bennett thought about it and felt it was possible.
But no matter what, as long as Lydia stops going out to take risks and as long as she can do business smoothly, everything else doesn't matter.
Just as the mother and daughter were talking, Mr. Bingley specially invited several guests from London also heard their conversation.
They didn't know that they were touched by that sentence, but they put down their reserve and pride and walked to this corner.
"Madam Bingley, please forgive me for my presumption. I just seemed to hear your sister was about to run a pharmaceutical factory?"
One of the men in their thirties, dressed in a gentleman, bowed slightly and asked politely.
Jian Han smiled and returned the favor. She knew that the people in front of her were her husband's distinguished guests.
They were also merchants on the surface, but the families behind them all had a very status, with one, even a nobleman.
Mr. Bingley may not be as decisive and capable as Mr. Darcy, but he has the same goal as Mr. Darcy: to change the family's family and change the family from a businessman to a real aristocrat!
Therefore, he was very polite to these distinguished guests, and even gave some pleasing touches.
As the hostess of the Bingley family, Jane also has the responsibility to entertain guests and do her best to help her husband achieve her goals.
However, although Jian in the past was confident and elegant, he was a little bit confident.
There is no way, with an ordinary background, a shabby dowry, and a weak personality. Even though Jane has long become the mistress of this family, she can never completely control this family.
Not to mention, there are two sisters at home who often come back to visit.
Mrs. Hurst was better. Although it was not easy to get along with, she would not deliberately target Jane.
But Miss Bingley became a little sarcastic.
Some of the things she said are facts-
Mrs. Bennett is indeed a bit undecent.
Bennett's two young daughters are indeed frivolous in their words and deeds.
The most deadly and the most difficult thing for Jane to change is her dowry of only one thousand pounds!
Money is really the confidence of a person or even a family.
Jane is confident and generous, but she occasionally feels embarrassed by family or some things about herself.
And Miss Bingley was a person who deliberately magnified this embarrassing person.
Her favorite thing is to discuss love and marriage in the upper class through the name of gossip.
Whenever Jane heard her say something about dowry, she felt a little uncomfortable.
She knew very well that Miss Bingley said this, but she could not think that she was poor and could not deserve the wealthy Bingley family! She could not help Mr. Bingley.
Mr. Bingley's weakness and favoritism towards family affection made him feel even more indulgent. Even the housekeeper and the maids had strange thoughts.
It's just a sign now, but the smart Jane noticed the problem.
But she was a little helpless.
After a few months of marriage, Mrs. Bingley felt an inexplicable pressure.
However, Jane seems gentle, but she is not a really weak person either.
She realized that her conditions were insufficient and began to work hard.
She was unable to change her dowry or something, but she could become better and try her best to help Mr. Bingley and become the competent hostess of the Bingley family!
Therefore, Jane also attaches great importance to these distinguished guests from London.
Seeing them coming to ask, Jane said gently, "Yes, sir, my sister is now in London and is preparing to run a pharmaceutical factory!"
The gentleman who took the initiative to ask his eyes lit up, his voice was a little anxious, "Then I can ask, your sister--" What do you mean?
"My sister married Mr. Wickham a year ago." Jane replied with a smile.
If it were the past, Miss Bingley would definitely sneer when she heard Jane say this.
What is marriage? It’s just elopement, okay?
The Bennet family spent a lot of money for the family's reputation, so they wanted Wickham to marry Lydia.
Otherwise, hum, no matter how beautiful or gentle Jane is, once she has an elopement sister, she will not be able to marry a good family.
Not to mention becoming the hostess of the Bingley family!
But this time, Miss Bingley was a rare quiet.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to mock Jane, but she doesn’t dare because her husband, Mr. Brown, also wants to make friends with these gentlemen.
