beauty and money

Mary in Oxford doesn't know what's going on at home. She herself is very troubled. Since she parted with Mr. Yang last time, she wrote to him, but nothing happened. Because there are too many things to think about, she is a little free now. After that, I became brooding, why didn't he reply?

She didn't know that Mr. Yang, whom she missed, failed to compete with another gentleman for the teaching assistant position, and was complaining about the injustice of society.It turned out that the last time he met Mary, he was restless and his mind was quite confused, but he claimed to be brilliant and accomplished in chemistry, so he was very sure about this position, but unfortunately the other party seemed to have obtained this position through some kind of relationship. position, even though he believed that the other party did not have this ability.

Not long after he got home, he got a text from Oxford, praising him for being good but sorry.He crumpled the text message angrily, and was depressed for a while.He received Mary's letters, but he threw them all into the trash can, not wanting to reply, and let himself be scolded by his father for not being able to find a good relationship.

Especially when he learned that the other party obtained the position through Mr. Darcy's connections, Mr. Yang has even less affection for Mary.That family is full of high-spirited, trampling people, especially the arrogance and snobbery of Mr. Darcy, and the vanity of Miss Georgiana. That ball was just a hypocritical power-sex transaction, Calvin. The marriage between the scum of the Dish family and the Darcy family.

Miss Mary is even more ugly, ignorant, bold, noisy and annoying, and her father is an old madman.How dare a woman?Mr. Yang attributed all the mistakes to Mary and her brother-in-law because of the failure of the job application, so that she was condemned unreasonably.But out of gentlemanly and moral principles, Mr. Yang is not going to expose Mary. Although this will make him be treated differently by Oxford, he just doesn't want to hurt Mary, and just wants to avoid her.

So, he accepted his father's arrangement to go to a dance that he didn't want to go to, to meet a good family and get a great future.The other party was an unlovable woman, quite old but with a huge fortune. With her fortune alone, she deserved to be treated like a princess.

Mary, who has no idea that she has been abandoned by Mr. Yang, is still immersed in the joy of being affirmed. The response of "Emotion and Reason" is very good. This is a delicate story written from a woman's perspective. The article is full of bitterness and cruelty. The spicy brushstrokes describe the faces of the middle-class gentry, noble lords, and wealthy businessmen in a three-point manner. Simple readers can read love and joys and sorrows from it, and more thoughtful readers feel that these characters are alive for a long time after reading. A small servant is also plump and typical, making people faintly aware of the hidden slyness in it.For this reason, Mary received a considerable manuscript fee, and the publisher hoped to publish the novel.

Of course Mary’s hidden thoughts were discovered by the book reviewers. They judged her with a certain malice, thinking that the author’s intentions were very sinister and even a sensationalist. Even though there were a lot of third-rate kitsch waiting for their criticism, they still did not hesitate A lot of dirty water on Mary's article.Such bad reviews have actually made newspapers get more subscriptions. They are often criticized by book critics, and if one day book reviewers praise them, they will be frightened.

Editor-in-Chief John visited Mary again, this time the two did not talk outside, and Mary directly invited him to her home for a meeting.Mary's apartment is a small two-story apartment. The first floor is the living room, kitchen and dining room, and the second floor is the lounge and bathroom. Because the bathroom is above the kitchen, the ceiling is yellow and peeling off.Editor-in-Chief John was surprised by the location of this apartment. You must know that in Oxford, the closer you are to the university, the more expensive the rent. With this location and such conditions, the rent may be astonishingly expensive, and this lady obviously does not look like a commoner. Affordable to rent here at least the middle class.

He still doesn't know that Mary is taking a huge risk to study at Oxford, otherwise he might be speechless in shock.The living room is completely free from the clutter of single men, everything is in good order. Sure enough, women are better at arranging and arranging things than men.His evaluation of Mary in his heart has increased a bit. Of course, he hasn't seen the bedroom upstairs. If he saw it, he would probably be surprised at Mary's laziness.

Without the help of the maid, Mary felt powerless just to tidy up the living room downstairs. The quilt in the bedroom was never folded, dirty clothes were thrown everywhere, and odd trinkets were everywhere.She does not open fire, the kitchen is basically a decoration, the cafe at the street is the place she frequents most, she settles at the college at noon, and buys food in the cafe for dinner and breakfast, either bread, omelette or salad bacon, monotonous and boring tedious.

This kind of hard life is very common to ordinary men, and it is also common among civilians, but to people of Mary's class, it is no different from a prison. Mrs. Bennet knows that she will love her baby for a long time, but Mary is not a A person of enjoyment, she is used to living a rigorous and regular life, which is why Mr. Bennet thinks she is more suitable for the convent than at home.

Editor-in-Chief John is a man with a sharp vision, and he is also a man with a keen mind. The red hounds of the London Metropolitan Police Department will be willing to bow down.In just a few minutes, he had figured out Mary's class and her basic financial situation. He felt that this lady was not short of money, but not very rich. His father and brother probably couldn't count on her, so he came out to live alone.Such people don't care about the amount of manuscript fees, and pay more attention to affirmation and success.With his confidence in mind, he was no longer afraid of competition from other publishers. He had an advantage over them, because he knew that Mr. Henry was a woman, and if she didn't want to reveal her identity, she needed the publisher to handle trivial matters.

Seeing the black tea brought by Mary, he stroked the mustache on his lips in a good mood. If he could switch to the publishing industry and gain more benefits, then the newspaper could have its own printing channels instead of renting the printing channels of other newspapers. .At present, the main expenditure of newspaper offices is to rely on other newspaper offices to print their own newspapers when they are not printing, which is too controlled by others.

"Mr. Henry, you don't have to be so busy. I'm just here to discuss with you about the publication of your novel." Seeing Mary preparing biscuits and fruits, Editor-in-Chief John hurriedly stopped him. He didn't want to continue until afternoon tea. How long the tea is.

Mary was so enthusiastic and excited that she had already been exposed in front of the editor-in-chief, so she didn't have to hide it on purpose. What's more, the other party's visit was her first guest after living here, which made her even more nervous. The apartment has not received anyone else yet.

"Mr. John, I already know why you came here. You know my identity, so I authorize you to handle this matter with full authority." Mary is not interested in negotiating terms with others, and she will not care about her own interests. It can be said that he knows nothing, let alone has any ambitions.

Before the editor-in-chief John came, he thought it was a sure thing, and the other party would not have any harsh conditions, but Mr. Henry promised so happily that all the rhetoric he had prepared was in vain. He didn't know whether to be happy or regretful, but he was going to fight a protracted war Well, other publishers have higher conditions and prices, and they really have no advantage at all.

Seeing that Editor-in-Chief John didn't respond for a moment, Mary sat across from her and pointed to Editor-in-Chief John's bag and said, "Aren't you going to sign paperwork with me?"

After being reminded by Mary, the editor-in-chief John took out the documents from his bag. They had considered these conditions for a long time and spent a lot of effort on making them, but the other party signed them without even looking at them. I always felt worried. In vain.However, he noticed last time that Mr. Henry wrote with his left hand, but the other party didn't seem to be left-handed.

"Are you left-handed? But the writing is not slanted." Everyone's writing habits represent a personality. People with a generous and outgoing personality tend to have larger handwriting without slanting, and people with a delicate personality tend to have smaller handwriting. Love flowers font, but all of them will have the entire line of letters slanted, unless a ruler is used, it will become more and more slanted on a piece of white paper.Right hand to right, left hand to left.

"I am right-handed, but my right hand is injured and I can't do too delicate things, so I have to use my left hand. I'm not used to it yet." Mary raised her right hand up out of thin air, and after careful observation, she found that it trembled slightly, and it hurt when she exerted force. This pain may lessen over time, but tremors in the hand are not necessarily cured.

Editor-in-Chief John understood, no wonder he couldn't judge Mary's character from Mary's handwriting, because Mary was not used to her left hand yet, so the handwriting on the manuscript was very immature.Editor-in-Chief John wouldn’t be surprised if Mary mentioned the pain with a hint of sadness, but Mary didn’t. She only regrets that she doesn’t seem to care about these things, and the other party’s character is very resolute.From this, the editor-in-chief John came to a conclusion. Before that, he was worried that the book reviewer’s too much malice would make the other party lose confidence, but now he let go of his worries. The writer in front of him is stronger and braver than many men, which is really admirable.

The negotiation ended sooner than expected. Editor-in-Chief John wanted to invite Mary to have lunch, but was politely declined. She had a lot of homework to do. Although the professor basically didn’t ask for the auditors and basically ignored them, Mary still asked herself Same as classmates, no, better than them is worthy of Mr. Bennet's painstaking efforts to find a way.

Editor-in-chief John didn't ask too much, he just thought that Mary had other arrangements, so he went back with his briefcase, but when he left, he keenly noticed a man leaning against the corner of the street, it was a man wearing a hat The man, he seems to be smoking, but his eyes are always scanning this way, as if there is some ulterior purpose.

He pretended to be unintentional, but in fact he walked there deliberately. The other party thought he had been spotted at first, but he relaxed when he saw that Editor-in-Chief John didn't come straight over, as if he was just passing by.When Editor John walked up to him, he exclaimed, "Eliot! What are you doing here?"
