Jane Austen was born into a family that was not wealthy, and because women were of low status at the time and mostly dependent on men, her mother hoped that Jane would find a rich family and live a comfortable life.
The uncle of the male protagonist, Tom Lefroy, is a famous justice in London, and Tom studied with his uncle as the heir. However, due to Tom's depravity and greed, his uncle punishes him for going to the town to experience life, and he becomes a neighbor with Jane.
Like Pride and Prejudice, the first meeting between the two is not pleasant, and when Jane reads to the crowd her engagement message to her sister and Mr. Foo, Tom breaks in and arrogantly thinks that Jane's manuscript is too contrived. Later they fought in the woods, dancing at crowded dances, she was adept at cricket, and they each recommended books to each other.
They begin to slowly get to know each other and discover each other's strengths...
Jane's mother wanted Jane to pick a wealthy husband. The rich gentleman Wesley became the ideal choice for Jane's parents, and Wesley liked Jane very much. Although Jane's parents tried their best to make this happen, they were simply rejected. The mother was particularly angry about this, and the mother saw this as an opportunity for Jane to change her fate.
At the ball, Jane was looking for it as soon as she entered, but disappointed, she could only dance with Wesley. With one turn, she was suddenly pleasantly surprised to see Tom appear in front of her eyes, and then she revealed her first smile after entering the prom.
Jane knows that she is in love with Tom, and Tom is unconsciously in love with the talented Jane. They decided to go to London to see Tom's uncle, hoping to get his permission.
But someone wrote a letter to Uncle Tom describing Jane as a vain gold-worshipper. The uncle was furious and told Tom that if he insisted on being with Jane, he would cut off all funding for him.
Tom says there is no way to oppose his uncle's decision, which undoubtedly hits Jane hard. Shortly after Jane returned home, she received news that her sister's fiancé had died of an illness, and her sister had lost love like Jane.
Jane agreed to Wesley's marriage proposal. But Tom shows up at this point, and finally Tom and Jane agree to "elope" for love. But Jane accidentally finds a letter from Tom's family. It turned out that the five children in Tom's family were all relying on Tom to maintain their lives, and the family had been expecting Tom to get ahead.
Jane suddenly realizes that the serious consequences of this elopement will not only discredit their respective families and ridicule their families, but also put Tom's family in a dilemma of survival.
What worries Jane even more is that the difficult circumstances after losing his reputation will make Tom live in guilt, self-blame and remorse, and slowly erode love.
In the end, Jane chose to give up.
At the end of the film, the rich gentleman who was abandoned by Jane asked her: What are you going to do in the future? Do you make a living with pens?
Jane said: Yes, make a living from pens.
And asked: What will be the ending of your novel?
Jane said: Perfect ending, they will all have a happy ending, a glorious marriage.
The year after the breakup, Jane completed the first draft of her famous novel Pride and Prejudice.
Years later, middle-aged Jane and Tom meet again. Tom has become an outstanding lawyer and Chief Justice of Ireland.
