After walking some time in this way， the twodies in front， the two gentlemen behind， on resuming their ces， after desding to the brink of the river for the better iion of some curious water-nt，there ced to be a little alteration. It inated in Mrs.Gardiner，who，fatigued by the exercise of the m， found Elizabeth's arm ie to her support， and sequently preferred her husband's. Mr. Darcy took her ce by her niece， and they walked on together.After a short silehedy first spoke. She wished him to know that she had been assured of his absence before she came to the ce， and ly began by ， that his arrival had been very ued—“for your housekeeper，”she added，“informed us that you would certainly not be here till to-morrow； and indeed， before we left Bakewell， we uood that you were not immediately expected in the try.”He aowledged the truth of it all， and said that business with his steward had asioned hising forward a few hours before the rest of the party with whom he had been travelling.“They will join me early to-morrow，”he tinued，“and among them are some who will im an acquaintah you—Mr.Bingley and his sisters.”
Elizabeth answered only by a slight bow. Her thoughts were instantly driven back to the time when Mr. Bingley's name had bee mentioned between them；and，if she might judge by hisplexion，his mind was not very differently engaged.
“There is also oher person in the party，”he tinued after a pause，“who more particrly wishes to be known to you.Will you allow me，or do I ask too much，to introduce my sister to your acquaintance during your stay at Lambton？”
The surprise of su application was great indeed； it was too great for her to know in what manner she eded to it.She immediately felt that whatever desire Miss Darcy might have of being acquainted with her must be the work of her brother，and， without looking farther， it was satisfactory； it was gratifying to know that his rese had not made him think really ill of her.
They now walked on in silence，each of them deep in thought. Elizabeth was notfortable；that was impossible；but she was ttered and pleased. His wish of introdug his sister to her liment of the highest kind.They soon outstripped the others， and when they had reached the carriage， Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner were half a quarter of a mile behind.
He then asked her to walk into the house—but she dered herself not tired，and they stood together on thewn.At such a time much might have been said，and silence was very awkward. She wao talk，but there seemed to be an embargo on every subject.Atst she recollected that she had been travelling，and they talked of Matlod Dovedale with great persevera time and her aunt moved slowly—and her patiend her ideas were nearly worn our before the tête-à-tête was over.
On Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner'sing up they were all pressed to go into the house and take some refreshment； but this was deed， and they parted on each side with utmost politeness. Mr.Darcy hahedies into the carriage；and when it drove off，Elizabeth saw him walking slowly towards the house.
The observations of her uncle and aunt now began；and each of them pronounced him to be infinitely superior to anything they had expected.
“He is perfectly well behaved，polite，and unassuming，”said her uncle.
“There is something a little stately in him，to be sure，”replied her aunt，“but it is fio his air，and is not unbing.I ow say with the housekeeper，that though some people may call him proud，I have seen nothing of it.”
“I was never more surprised than by his behaviour to us.It was more than civil；it was really attentive；and there was no y for such attention. His acquaintah Elizabeth was very trifling.”
“To be sure， Lizzy，”said her aunt，“he is not so handsome as Wickham；or，rather，he has not Wickham's tenance，for his features are perfectly good.But how came you to tell us that he was so disagreeable？”
Elizabeth excused herself as well as she could；said that she had liked him better when they met ihan before，and that she had never seen him so pleasant as this m.
“But perhaps he may be a little whimsical in his civilities，”replied her uncle.“Yreat men often are；and therefore I shall not take him at his word about fishing， as he might ge his mind another day，and warn me off his grounds.”
Elizabeth felt that they had entirely mistaken his character，but said nothing.
“From what we have seen of him，”tinued Mrs. Gardiner，“I really should not have thought that he could have behaved in so cruel a way by anybody as he has done by poor Wickham.He has not an ill-natured look.On the trary，there is something pleasing about his mouth when he speaks.And there is something of dignity in his tehat would not give one an unfavourable idea of his heart. But， to be sure， the gooddy who showed us his house did give him a most ming character！ I could hardly helpughing aloud sometimes.But he is a liberal master，I suppose，and that in the eye of a servantprehends every virtue.”
Elizabeth here felt herself called on to say something in vindication of his behaviour to Wickham； and therefave them to uand，in as guarded a manner as she could，that by what she had heard from his rtions i，his as were capable of a very different stru； and that his character was by no means so faulty，nor Wickham's so amiable，as they had been sidered ifordshire. In firmation of this， she rted the particrs of all the peiary transas in which they had been ected，without actually naming her authority， but stating it to be such as might be relied on.
Mrs.Gardiner was surprised and ed；but as they were noroag the se of her former pleasures， every idea gave way to the charm of recolle； and she was too mugaged in pointing out to her husband all the iing spots in its environs to think of anything else.Fatigued as she had been by the m's walk they had no sooner diha off again i of her former acquaintand the evening ent iisfas of a intercourse renewed after many years' distinuance.
The urrences of the day were too full of io leave Elizabeth much attention for any of these new friends； and she could do nothing but think， and think with wonder， of Mr. Darcy's civility，and，above all，of his wishio be acquainted with his sister.快眼看书小说阅读_www.bookcu.com
