Simple and easy classic

I am often very resistant to foreign classics, I feel that I can't remember the name, and it will look serious and old-fashioned. As a result, my wife turned to this, and I followed it. The picture is blurry, but the character is too vivid. The old couple has five daughters. The mother is a typical country woman. She is snobbish and thinks about finding a good husband for her daughters. Playing the piano and singing is very common, and still thinks that he can't see other people's feelings at all, the fourth and fifth are crazy, the kind that can't be shut but lacks heart, and the fifth is more serious, and also bought the foreshadowing for the elopement later. The male protagonist is tall, handsome and rich, but also very cold. Bingley is also considered rich and handsome, but much kinder. Wicca, as always, spends extravagantly, showing that he is personable and gentle, and he actually goes everywhere to make trouble, and finally makes a fortune by running away. Cousin Collins is very pitiful. He talks about his neighbor Mrs. Debord all day long, brags about her garden and fireplace, and takes pride in being able to have a relationship with her. First, he likes the eldest sister, and when he knows it can't be done, he immediately finds the second child. He refused and immediately married another person, and after the fifth elopement scandal, he rushed over and sneered at him. His character was extremely low, pitiful and hateful. This Mrs. Debord is somewhat similar to Mrs. Wang from A Dream of Red Mansions. She is a representative of traditional forces. It is unreasonable for her sister to come out to socialize without joining her.
The father of this family is my idol. The daughters are chirping, gentle and intelligent. They are quietly sipping red wine and reading books. They are really comfortable in their lives. That is, after the daughters are married, will they feel a little lonely and lonely?
There are only six episodes in the TV series, and the plot is actually not complicated. There are just a few characters and scenes back and forth. But it is better than the characters' distinct personalities, occasional British humor, and a relaxed style. Another favorite place is the English countryside scenery at that time and the classical scenes presented by polite gentlemen and ladies.
After reading it, let's taste it carefully. As the daughter of an ordinary squire, the heroine finally married a handsome and rich man who is cold and handsome. It feels a bit like the current domineering president fell in love with me, which actually satisfied the imagination of many people.
Looking back at the author Jane Austen's resume, this is the first book she wrote at the age of 21, and it is also the most famous. I fell in love with a smart and cunning handsome guy when I was a girl, and finally because both parents disagreed with the door and property, I died alone and died in the arms of my sister. Therefore, in this book, this mentality is ruthlessly mocked. Cousin Collins and Wicca are all like this. Even the male protagonist admits that he thinks it is irrational to take a lowly female protagonist when he proposes for marriage for the first time. will be opposed by all. But, fortunately, after going through some twists and turns, the young author still managed to make the hero and heroine get a happy ending, which should also be his dream.
