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.
No matter how high you ask, even if I am worthless, I am the one who refuses the commodity in exchange.
