1  Introduction
    In the 19th century, Jane Austen was a famous British female novelist. Her novels mostly wrote her familiar so-called respectable people life as well as the relationship between them. When a reader gives a glimpse of ordinary trivial, he will find these petty, economic relations and the structure of English society in her eyes. Especially in the novel Pride and Prejudice , it shows the relationship between love and marriage. Marriage has always relations with all kinds of social issues and economic problems .The author always use clear ink and penetrating eyes to reveal the marriage essence of capitalism which is nothing but money transactions and the combination of interests. From her novel, we can know, in her time, a good marriage for a young woman is vital and it has to do with the British society and the social status of women. There was not equality between men and women in the 19th century. Women were considered not to be equal to men in terms of intelligence and ability. Their life are at the center of the family and their role is nothing but having a child and in charge of the housework at the same time. Therefore, for young women, if they don't have much property, marriage is their only way to gain respect, stability and social status. So in the novel, as a mother the two ladies have different status and different personality. Mrs. Bennet is funny and shallow while Lady Catherine is arrogant and always on her high horse, but they have one thing in common. They all worry about their daughters’ marriage. Both of them hope that daughters can marry rich bachelors.
