Their visitors staid with them above half an hour, and when they arose to depart, Mr. Darcy called on his sister to join him in expressing their wish of seeing Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner and Miss Bennet to dinner at Pemberley before they left the country. Miss Darcy, though with a diffidence which marked her little in the habit of giving invitations, readily obeyed. Mrs. Gardiner looked at her niece, desirous of knowing how she, whom the invitation most concerned, felt disposed as to its acceptance, but Elizabeth had turned away her head. Presuming, however, that this studied avoidance spoke rather a momentary embarrassment, than any dislike of the proposal, and seeing in her husband, who was fond of society, a perfect willingness to accept it, she ventured to engage for her attendance, and the day after the next was fixed on.

这些客人在他们这儿待了半个多钟头;临走的时候,达西叫他妹妹跟他一起向嘉丁纳夫妇和班纳特小姐表示,希望他们在离开这儿以前,上彭伯里去吃顿便饭。达西小姐虽然对于邀请客人还不大习惯,显得有些畏畏缩缩,可是她却立刻照做了。于是嘉丁纳太太望着外甥女儿,看她是不是愿意去,因为这次请客主要是为了她,不料伊丽莎白转过头去不说话。嘉丁纳太太认为这样假痴假呆是一时的羞怯,而不是不喜欢这次邀请;她又看看自己的丈夫:他本来就是个爱交际的人,这会儿更显得完全愿意去的样子,于是她就大胆答应了日期订在后天。

Bingley expressed great pleasure in the certainty of seeing Elizabeth again, having still a great deal to say to her, and many enquiries to make after all their Hertfordshire friends. Elizabeth, construing all this into a wish of hearing her speak of her sister, was pleased; and on this account, as well as some others, found herself, when their visitors left them, capable of considering the last half hour with some satisfaction, though while it was passing the enjoyment of it had been little.
彬格莱表示十分高兴,因为他又可以多一次看到伊丽莎白的机会,他还有许多话要和她谈,还要向她打听哈福德郡某些朋友的情况。伊丽莎白认为这一切都只是因为,他想从她嘴里探听她姐姐的消息,因此心里很快活。凡此种种,虽然她当时倒并不怎么特别欢欣,可是客人们走了以后,她一想起刚才那半个钟头的情景,就不禁得意非凡。
