The term that best describes the relationship between Mr. and Mrs. Fitzwilliam and Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner is "extended family." Mrs. Fitzwilliam is the sister of Mr. Gardiner and they share a family bond through their siblings' marriage.
Mrs. Bennet has two siblings. One is Mrs. Philips, the wife of an attorney, who lives in Merriton (her husband never appears in the book). The other is Mr. Gardiner, who is a wealth tradesman, living in the Cheapside district of London. He is married to Mrs. Gardiner, who grew up in Lambton, near Darcy's estate, Pemberly.

Mrs. Gardiner and Wickham are both characters in Jane Austen's novel "Pride and Prejudice." They are related through marriage as Mrs. Gardiner is Wickham's aunt. Additionally, both characters play roles in the social dynamics of the story, with Mrs. Gardiner providing guidance and support to Elizabeth Bennet, while Wickham causes trouble through his deceitful actions.
Mrs. Gardiner can be described as more level-headed, sensible, and understanding compared to Mrs. Bennet. She is depicted as calm, caring, and intelligent, providing guidance and support to Elizabeth throughout the novel.
Mr. Gardiner was in trade, or in other words, he was a merchant. He had one or more warehouses in London. The warehouses were not necessarily buildings for storing goods for wholesale, as they would likely be today, but quite possibly shops for retail trade. We do not have any information on what he was buying and selling.
Mr. Gardiner was Mrs. Bennet's brother, as very prosperous London tradesman. Mrs. Gardiner spent a very happy part of her childhood in Lambton, a town in Derbyshire near Darcy's estate of Pemberly. The Gardiners invited Elizabeth to go to Derbyshire with them, and it was on this trip that she saw Pemberly, met Darcy again, and discovered she had misjudged his character.
Mrs. Gardiner objects to Wickham because she knows that he is not a trustworthy or honorable person. She has heard unfavorable information about him from Mr. Darcy and is aware of his previous deceitful behavior. Mrs. Gardiner is concerned about Wickham's intentions, especially given his history with the Darcy family.
They live in London, on Gracechurch Street.
