But jane and elizabeth , who agreed in wishing , for the sake of their sister s feelings and consequence , that she should be noticed on her marriage by her parents , urged him so earnestly , yet so rationally and so mildly , to receive her and her husband at longbourn as soon as they were married , that he was prevailed on to think as they thought , and act as they wished
幸亏吉英和伊丽莎白顾全到妹妹的心绪和身份，一致希望她的婚姻会受到父母的重视，再三要求父亲，让妹妹和妹婿一结婚之后，就到浪搏恩来。她们要求得那么恳切，那么合理，又那么婉转，终于把父亲说动了心，同意了她们的想法，愿意照着她们的意思去办。
