[Crossover + Pride and Prejudice] Becoming Mary

This is my embarrassing old work. Take a look if you like. I can't quite bear to delete it, since I put so much of myself into it.

I might write another Western classics fanfic someday, but when I return to it, I'll know more about the era I'm describing.

Thank you to everyone who read this story. I'm sorry I let you down.

But I really can't bring myself to give it up. Maybe in a few years, I'll relaunch it, revise it, and make it better.

Thank you, thank you to everyone who supported me.

The Main God said, "Your mission is to read 50,000,000 books in this era."

Mary thought she was going to be an old maid for the rest of her life.

Why do men look handsome in black, while women in black only look like widows?

Oh, why would you want to wear black?

What's wrong with it? Black makes me look mature, doesn't it? Lydia, aren't you the one who wants me to look less young?

Mary, why don't we try another color? Dark blue, perhaps? That would make you look mature too. Brown, as well. I remember you often wear brown, high-heeled, rough leather ankle boots. Just imagine: a brown hat, a brown cashmere coat or shawl, a white blouse with lace trim, and a long brown skirt. Add a ribbon to suit your mood, and it would be perfect, wouldn't it?

I have to say, Father, you understand me better than anyone.

Since I'm not beautiful, I'll have to find a way to let people see my other good qualities.

Hey, Mary, why do you only choose men who are either younger or older than you?

Because young boys are innocent and lively, and older men are kind and amiable. The men my age are mostly going astray!

There are lots of OOC moments and plot holes, so I hope you won't mind too much. This will be a crossover with Western classics, but I study ancient Chinese history QAQ.

There will be male crushes like Sherlock Holmes, the Count of Monte Cristo, and the Phantom of the Opera. Whether I can win them over is up to fate, since I'm a hopeless writer QAQ.

The heroine transmigrates several times. So far, she's been Mary Crawley from Downton Abbey, Lara from Tomb Raider, and Xue Baochai from Dream of the Red Chamber. This Mary is a sweet girl with a cunning side.
