ReplyDeleteKamryn- In this story Mrs.Bennet wishes for one of her daughters to be with Mr.Bingley because he's very wealthy. One night Jane was going to go eat dinner with him at his house and Mrs. Bennet made her ride her horse in the pouring rain all the way there. Mrs. Bennet did this because she wanted her to get sick and have to stay there with him. I would not make my daughter ride her horse in the rain just to stay with a rich guy. I would want my daughter to be with someone because she loves them, not just because the man is wealthy and rich.
