and an orphan daughter of his dead sister. I have had more trouble with that child than any one would believe. Such a burden to be left on my hands — and so much annoyance as she caused me, daily and hourly, with her incomprehensible disposition, and her sudden starts of temper, and her continual, unnatural watchings of one’s movements! I declare she talked to me once like something mad, or like a fiend — no child ever spoke or looked as she did; I was glad to get her away from the house. I sent her to a charitable institution which cared for the orphans of clergy, and forgot her. Years later her maternal uncle, a rich merchant, visited me and asked about her, and I lied. I said that she died in that charitable school. I knew that she was well, alive and in service as a governess.
I had twice done her a wrong which I regret now. One was in breaking the promise which I gave my husband to bring you up as my own child; the other - to hiding her from her wealthy uncle...

I did not want her to become prosperous! Now I am very ill, and my conscience troubles me greatly. What should I do?

Well, Mrs Sarah Reed, don't worry about Jane. She is going to be deliriously happy in spite of your cruelty to her:

"I have now been married ten years. I know what it is to live entirely for and with what I love best on earth. I hold myself supremely blest—blest beyond what language can express; because I am my husband’s life as fully as he is mine. No woman was ever nearer to her mate than I am: ever more absolutely bone of his bone, and flesh of his flesh. I know no weariness of my Edward’s society: he knows none of mine, any more than we each do of the pulsation of the heart that beats in our separate bosoms; consequently, we are ever together. To be together is for us to be at once as free as in solitude, as gay as in company. We talk, I believe, all day long: to talk to each other is but a more animated and an audible thinking. All my confidence is bestowed on him, all his confidence is devoted to me; we are precisely suited in character—perfect concord is the result"

Your mom is chuffed for you or she does not have paid for the marriage or permit the two one among you reside along with her. once you and your hubby lived along with her did you help with abode initiatives and expenditures? in case you probably did then she had no reason to experience she develop into being taken income of, in case you probably did not she had all the acceptable to experience that way considering the fact which you have been. Your mom says to bypass on your husband, with the aid of fact she is familiar with that he's your husband and he is going to back you. She could be slightly envious with the aid of fact she would not have that backing. yet that doesn't mean she isn't chuffed for you. mothers and daughters argue thats what brings them nearer. A mom does not argue with their daughter if she did not care and want the acceptable for her. help her, perhaps take her out and see in case you will hit upon her a great boyfriend. tell her you have a good time along with her and love her. She has your acceptable interest at heart like no person else ever will. in case you prevail, she succeeds. God Bless.
