Jane Eyre is an orphan girl. She was born into a poor family of priests. My parents died of typhoid fever within a month. Young Jane Eyre was put in foster care with her uncle and aunt. After my uncle Mr. Reed died in the red house, Jane loved the life of discrimination and abuse for 10 years. Once, Jane was put in the red house for resisting her cousin's beating. Physical pain and mental humiliation and fear made her seriously ill. [2]
My aunt regards her as a thorn in her side and separates her from her children. Since then, the confrontation between her and her aunt has become more open and determined. Later, Jane was sent to lowood orphanage. [3]
The orphanage has strict rules and a hard life, and the dean is a cold hypocrite. Jane continued to suffer mental and physical abuse in the orphanage. Because of the poor living conditions, children often die in orphanages, and her best friend Helen died of a big typhoid fever. This typhus has also greatly improved the orphanage. Jane received six years' education in the new environment and taught in this school for two years. Because of Miss Temple's departure, Jane got tired of life in an orphanage and advertised for a governess.
The housekeeper of Thornfield Manor hired her. Rochester, the male owner of the manor, often travels abroad. There is only one girl under the age of 10 in such a big mansion. Rochester is her protector and she is Jane's student.
One night, Jane went out for a walk and met her host who had just returned from abroad. This is the first time they have met. Later, she found out that her master was a moody person, and his attitude towards her was sometimes good and sometimes bad. The whole house is gloomy and empty, and sometimes you can hear creepy strange smiles. [5]
One day, Jane was awakened by this laughter in her sleep and found Rochester's room on fire. Jane woke him up and helped him put out the fire.
Rochester often holds family dinners after he comes back. At a family dinner, she courted a beautiful lady named Ingram. Jane was called into the living room, but was snubbed by Blanche and her daughter. She endured humiliation and left the living room. By this time, she had fallen in love with Rochester. In fact, Rochester has fallen in love with Jane, and he just wants to test Jane's love for himself. When he proposed to Jane, Jane promised him.
On the eve of the wedding, Jane Eyre saw an ugly woman in a wedding dress in front of the mirror. [5]
The next day, when the wedding was quietly going on in the church, suddenly someone sent a certificate: Mr. Rochester got married 15 years ago. His wife is the crazy woman locked in the secret room on the third floor. The law hindered their love and made them fall into deep pain. Jane left Rochester on a stormy night. On the way to find a new way out of life, I lived in poverty, begging along the way and going through hardships. Finally, I was taken in by pastor St. John and taught in a local primary school.
Soon, Jane learned that her uncle had passed away and left her a legacy. At the same time, she found that St. John was her cousin. Jane decided to divide the property equally. St. John is a fanatic and intends to preach in India. He asked Jane to marry him and go to India with him, but the reason was that Jane Eyre was suitable to be a missionary's wife. Jane turned him down and decided to see Rochester again.
She returned to Thornfield Manor, where the house was in ruins. The crazy woman set fire to the building and fell to her death. Rochester was also injured and disabled (losing an arm and an eye). Jane was shocked when she found him, and finally married him and got her ideal happy life.
