And this two hostess's appearance be objective existence, but Charlotte Bronte at description two of image wording and tone use are to have very big dissimilarity: One is in humble at first, but gradually growth, finally got away from the inferiority to appearance; Another one not in humble but get worse to worse. Then shirk, even look down herself.
