I cried when Jane finally read her book to the children of her


lover

The morality is the norm, to interpret the

unspoken rules of all behaviors, which exist between men and women, and the forced life, fame, status, money, become the basis of judgment of the upper class or the vulgar.

In a poor family, even if there is a good Education, good thinking, good character and persistence are no match for the oppression and secularity of this society.

She fights against this society by not marrying all her life, or she doesn't fall in love with another at all, or she uses her life to illustrate that you can only love one person in a lifetime, and you must get marriage for love.

Maybe because of her, when I was in junior high school, because I had the idea of ​​loving only one person in my life

, I read all her books at the age of 13 and 14. Maybe, I just repeated it because its Happy ending was the ending I wanted. I have read it several times, even dozens of times

. Now I, 21 years old, read her person seriously again, and I know how a woman in the Middle Ages in Europe influenced my thinking and behavior.



Sad society, brave woman


She firmly believes, I firmly believe, I firmly believe that



good people are rewarded
