I think I understand now why Jane has a hard time accepting Wesley, even though in my youth, when my sisters in the dormitory were chatting at night, I used to think that someone like Wesley had a certain status and property security, and was a kind person who could Provide a calm and peaceful life for your spouse, and you will be the ideal husband. But when Wesley hesitantly said, what I'm talking about is me, I have a decent income of £2,000 a year, and as Gresham's heir, my fortune will be even greater, these are yours, if we get married , it's all yours. At this time, Jane's attitude of giving rejection will be irreversible. Although he is full of enthusiasm, he always believes that property is the biggest bargaining chip, so he can't be honest with others.

    Maybe it's because love is too far away from me that I'm not really impressed, but I agree with Jane and her parents. Love is desirable, but money is indispensable... If the two really eloped, I think the passion fades day after day, and all that remains is Tom feeling that he has failed his family and losing his future, and Jane feels that poverty has destroyed her ability to create. The endless resentment, it is better to stop the loss as soon as possible... The only exception is Tom's sudden appearance at the dance, when Jane, who lacks interest, turns around and suddenly finds that the person opposite is the sweetheart she is thinking of, at that moment Her uncontrollable sweetness really made me see the beauty of love...
