Mr. Bennet from Pride and Prejudice

It ends too quickly. Is it rotten?

Is it a crime for Miss Bingley to do this? Open the letter privately, (⊙v⊙) Yeah

Haha, such a loving chapter

Only now did I learn that Mr. Bennett holds a hereditary viscounty title. Hereditary titles are very rare in European history. Their status is far more transcendent than those with the same title, and only those who have made significant contributions to the country and the royal family will be given this secondary honor. Nan Zhu in "Emotion and Reason" led the army in India and fought hard for so many years before he was awarded the title of Viscount. It is not hereditary yet.

In a previous chapter, Mr. Bennett said that each daughter had a dowry of 10,000 pounds. I thought it was a bit small at the time, and today I feel even more unreasonable when I read this: According to estimates by thoughtful people, the Bennett family has an annual income of at least 30,000 pounds.

Raise Mrs. Bennet's taste! ! The Bennet family now is not the Bennet family in the original book! !

Why does it feel like Mrs. Bennet is becoming more and more unbearable!

In fact, I have always wondered why Mrs. Bennett, who has lived a luxurious and upper-class life for more than ten years, has not grown up? When I saw her dealing with the widow in the first few chapters, I felt that Mrs. Bennet still had some brains. In the following chapters, the image of the lady began to collapse again, and she was infinitely close to the speechless Mrs. Bennet in the original work. In the original book, Mrs. Bennett was just a young gentleman in the country. She had little family assets and no sons, so she would not inherit anything after Mr. Bennett passed away. This meant that if Mr. Bennett passed away, she and her daughters would be kicked out of the house, without a fixed place to live, and no financial resources. Therefore, she eagerly hopes to marry off her daughters, especially those with higher incomes who can give their daughters a good life. In the original novel, especially after Elizabeth rejects her cousin's proposal, her anxiety can be said to have reached its peak: when she gets old, she will not even have a place to live, and will be reduced to a state of being despised by others, which she cannot accept. In the original work, the formation of Bennett's character is inseparable from the living environment in which she lives. She comes into contact with people in the countryside, so it is understandable that she behaves like a country person. In this article, there are huge changes in the Bennett family from the beginning. First of all, the living standard of the Bennett family is much higher than that in the original book. Not to mention how much investment Mr. Bennett has, how much land he owns, and how much income he earns every year, the clothes and jewelry Mrs. Bennett wears when she attends balls (especially the Duke of York's ball) are probably more than 5,000 pounds. I don't know why she would think Mr. Bingley, who earns 5,000 pounds a year, is a rich man. Secondly, Mr. Bennett holds the title of Viscount. Although he has a middle-level title and does not have a fiefdom, everyone should not forget that he has a good relationship with the Duke of York, which means that he can definitely be regarded as an upstart in the upper class. No matter how reclusive he is, he will never fail to attend those banquets. In the nearly ten years since she became Viscountess, Mrs. Bennett must have attended countless large and small banquets. It is estimated that she must have attended the large ones hosted by the Duke of York. She has been in contact with so many people in the so-called upper class. It is impossible for her to remain like this. In that case, she will not only lose her own face, but also the face of the Duke of York. After all, their family was promoted by the Duke of York. We can't say how ladylike Mrs. Bennett has become, but after being in contact with these big men for a long time, she will definitely get closer to them unconsciously. Therefore, Mrs. Bennett's performance in recent chapters is completely beyond what a viscountess can show. Again, everyone should not forget that the Bennett family has an excellent son. Mrs. Bennett does not have to worry about the inheritance at all. Even if Mr. Bennett is gone, she does not have to worry about being homeless. He should not be so eager to marry his daughter. Mrs. Bennett, who has met many high-class people, actually thinks that Mr. Bingley is a good candidate for her son-in-law? This makes me speechless... I feel that with the current status of the Bennet family, Mr. Darcy may only be in their eyes. In any case, no matter how brainless or stupid Mrs. Bennet is, she should not be as described in these chapters. It is probably due to the influence of the original work that the image of Mrs. Bennet is not so suitable for her current identity. In addition, in the previous chapter, after Bingley arrived, Mr. Bennett took the initiative to visit him. I think it's best to change it. I don't know if foreign countries pay so much attention to class, but speaking of common sense, Mr. Bennett, whose income and status are much greater than Mr. Bingley's, will not condescend to him. The reason why Bingley and his party arrived late at the ball was determined by their status, because no one here had a higher status than them, so they would be very reserved. In this article, the Bennett family must be higher than them. Arriving late would be disrespectful and look down on the Viscount's family. Everyone has an opinion, and maybe everyone doesn't agree with what I say, but I just want to convey my thoughts to the author, and I hope you can refer to it. Writing fan fiction does not mean that you have to follow the plot in the original work. Different experiences create different characters. I think you can deviate a little from the original work. As long as the main plot remains unchanged, other side plots can be ignored~ It is only for reference.

Mr. Bingley is about to turn 30, isn't he? ? She also wanted her sisters to help manage the family business, and she was also very cowardly. In those days, married sisters and their husbands were allowed to live at home all year round. It was incredible. They were really not worthy of Jane! ! ! ! Strongly demand that Mr. Bingelai be laid off! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Viscount, the title is neither high nor low. The most important thing is that both the wife and daughter will become ladies, and the son can also inherit the title in descending order (duke, marquis, hundred, son, quasi-viscount, male, quasi-baronet, the lowest should be knight)
