Jane Austen was born in Steventon, Hampshire, England in December 1775, to eight siblings. His father was a learned pastor, and his mother came from a relatively wealthy family and also had a certain cultural attainment. Therefore, although Austin did not enter a regular school, the excellent reading environment of her family gave her the conditions for self-study and cultivated her interest in writing. However, such an enviable female writer can be described as a combination of talent and beauty, and in her later years she was accompanied only by her sister and never married. Jane Austen wrote her first novel at the age of 21, titled First Impressions, which she contacted the publisher to publish, to no avail. More than a decade later, "The First Impression" was rewritten and renamed "Pride and Prejudice"
"Love and reason, at any age, are contradictory. Ten years later, they reunited after the concert. By then Jane was already a well-known writer, and Lefroy had become chief justice of Ireland, taking his daughter with him, who had the same name as Jane— and a fervent admirer of Jane. Le Floy was already white-faced, and Jane's voice had become calm and vicissitudes. Ten years later, they still have the same eyebrows, like the quiet and unassuming english countryside. ”
01 Sometimes love is a subtle flower that takes time to blossom
The story takes place in England at the end of the 18th century, in an era when women had no freedom without money, and marriage was a top priority for women. Marriage can change lives, and it seems to have been the case ever since.
"Rich bachelors always want to marry a wife. This is a universally recognized truth. Whenever such a bachelor moves to a new place, the families of the neighbors, although they know nothing about his thoughts, regard it as the legitimate property of one of their daughters. (Pride and Prejudice)
At first, they were out of place. When Jane and Lefroy first met, Jane was reciting a blessing poem to her sister who was about to be engaged. When Lefroy heard of Jane's work, he felt childish, lengthy, boring, and at first glance an inexperienced narrative. Similarly, Jane was unaccustomed to Lefroy as a character of a young master in the city, his rhetoric and his abusiveness. The first time they met, they quarreled in the woods, but their love of literature and their enthusiasm for life still made them perceive each other.
02 Love and reason are always enemies
Love makes people stupid, no matter what form of love. Emotions are ridiculous, and once you give affection to someone, you are stupid.
A dance party became a turning point. By the fountain in the moonlight, the flower of love finally bloomed.
Lefroy finally showed his true heart in front of Jane at this moment, and he received a warm response from her. At this time, the two hot hearts finally close together, the power of love is unstoppable, and at that moment, everything around them has become a witness to their love.
Lefroy enters the city with Jane, and their union must be approved by his only uncle, on whom he depends, or he will not survive.
After entering the city, Lefroy first took Jane to visit a well-known female writer living in London. In the high society of that era, the novel was regarded as a reading for inferior people, and the author of the novel naturally did not have too high social status, especially since the author was already married to a woman. When Jane saw the female writer sitting quietly in a luxurious house, how different it was from the romantic and dangerous and frightening story she wrote. On the contrary, his husband had to endure the ridicule of others. This vignette also affected Jane.
After visiting the female writer, the next day Lefroy tries to introduce Jane to his uncle and ask him to accept their love. Unfortunately, a letter destroyed all their hopes. Lefroy compromised with his uncle and abandoned Jane. Jane sadly left London and returned to the countryside.
The fire of love that had just been ignited was ruthlessly extinguished. Soon after, Lefroy had a fiancée. Jane finally reluctantly compromised and accepted Wesley's marriage proposal. Things seem to have a final conclusion.
03 If our love can destroy your family, it will also destroy itself
Lefroy reappeared in front of Jane and said to her, "What's the point of life if we can't be together?" "They hugged and kissed together.
How hard-won is this moment of intoxication, and how much courage does it take for the two of them to achieve it? They decided to elope. Leave behind all wealth, status, status, and worldliness to find the world that belongs only to them.
This elopement, however, ended with Jane as an evil person. On the way to elope, Jane discovers a letter from Lefroy. The letter mentions that his family and relatives are dependent on him alone, and that eloping will lose everything about his wealth, fame, and so on.
Another choice, a harsh reality once again throws the puzzle to Jane. If love is chosen, then a disgraced lawyer with a penniless wife, no financial resources, and a livelihood for his family will be extremely difficult.
If she chooses to give up love, then Jane will face all this sadness alone, and Lefroy's life can return to the original point, and his fiancée is still waiting for him.
True love is a lifelong affirmation that that person is the only one in my life and will never change.
True love is a brave renunciation, a firm renunciation in order not to drag down the other person's family or anything else.
This is an contradictory fact, but it must be faced with a smile.
The two stood at the same time, looking at each other for a long time, silent. Then, jane said "Goodbye" and resolutely left. This goodbye is no longer the previous anger and disappointment, but helplessness, sadness and endless nostalgia, more reason and determination.
She walked away, and at the end of the long corridor was a determined back. There is no looking back, no nostalgia, only firmness.
04 She never loved anyone else in her life, only because on that day, after the dance, in the rose garden, under the night sky. He said to her I am yours.
Jane sat quietly in the auditorium, applauding the beautiful voice of the poet, and in this way she met him, and met him again, her young lover: Lefroy, who still loved to be late. He still had blue clear eyes, and she looked at him, and then heard him call his eldest daughter Jane.
He called her, and she was about to burst into tears. She distinctly remembered how he had called her many years earlier. She seems to be back in her 20s, and her face is unbelievably girlish, surprised and relieved, and such a reunion ends the movie "Becoming Jane Austen".
Even if they can't stay together for a lifetime, the emotional bond that maintains them is strengthening day by day, and this will become the biggest spiritual pillar between them.
Jane had never been married in her life, and whether she married or not was irrelevant to her. Because, her heart will always belong to only one person.
"I have no money and no house, and I live entirely on my eccentric uncle. I don't have the money to get married yet, but you have to know what I think. Jane, I'm yours. Oh my God, I am yours, wholeheartedly, without reservation, what do we do? “
"I am yours", what a moving love story.
A truly great woman is not how much wealth she has created, but how much wealth she will guard her proud and self-respecting personality, with an independent and noble soul.
