"Pride and Prejudice" (14)

This aroused Miss Bingley's curiosity, and she quickly asked Elizabeth if she could understand this sentence.

Elizabeth: I don’t understand, but he is deliberately trying to make things difficult for us, so the way to prevent him from succeeding is not to ask him to explain.

But Miss Bingley could not bear to disappoint Mr. Darcy and quickly asked him to tell him these two reasons.

Darcy: One possibility is that you trust each other and have secrets to talk to; another possibility is that you feel that walking can better show off your body beauty. If it is the first possibility, then I will hinder you; if it is the second possibility, I can sit by the fire and appreciate your posture better.

It was rare for Mr. Darcy to say such outrageous words. When Miss Bingley heard this, she quickly shouted to find a way to punish him.

Elizabeth said that Miss Bingley and Mr. Darcy were very familiar with each other, and it would be easy to punish him in any way.

Miss Bentley: To be honest, I don't know. Although he is familiar with him, he is calm when things happen and is difficult to tease. He barely laughs at him and may even be secretly laughed at by him.

Elizabeth: Mr. Darcy has nothing to laugh at? This is a rare advantage. But it’s better for me to be rare. If I know more of these people, it would be a great loss for me. After all, I love to laugh very much.

Mr. Darcy said that Miss Bingley was overrated. He believed that no matter how smart or outstanding a person was, he might become the laughing stock of some people, and he should try to avoid this happening.

Miss Bingley asked Elizabeth to tell her conclusion about Darcy, and Elizabeth deliberately said in front of Miss Bingley that Darcy had no shortcomings.

After hearing this, Darcy quickly denied it, saying that he had never said such a thing, and said that he had many flaws, but they were probably not mental flaws.

Darcy said that his temper was too stubborn, which made it difficult to get along with others; he could not forget and was unwilling to forgive other people's stupid things, mistakes, and things they had done wrong to him. He is prone to resentment, and once his goodwill is lost, it is lost forever.

Elizabeth: This is indeed a flaw, but you are very accurate about your own shortcomings. Of course I can't laugh at you.

Darcy: I believe that everyone’s character will have shortcomings and flaws in some aspects, which are difficult to make up for.

Elizabeth: Your flaw is that you always resent others.

Darcy smiled and replied: Then you are deliberately misunderstanding others.
