The crisis in Pride and Prejudice comes because Lydia has run off with Wickham. It is resolved because Darcy finds them and induces Wickham to marry her in exchange for a fair amount of money, which is used to by him a commission in the army, pay off all his debts, and provide him with a bit of cash.
