So when Fanny was ten years old, she was sent to the house of her second aunt, Mrs. Bertrand, to start foster care.

Mary is smart and beautiful, Henry is handsome and elegant, and they easily won the favor of their cousins. Edmund is infatuated with Mary, and Maria and Julie have a crush on Henry. But their brothers and sisters treated their feelings frivolously and casually. Mary valued assets, and Henry just wanted to play with flowers.

At this time, Mary, who learned that Tom was seriously ill, felt that Tom was dying soon, and Edmund was about to become the heir and returned to Mansfield Manor to restore the old one. As a result, Edmund, who saw through Mary's character, rejected her without hesitation. And in the process of the family encountering a series of accidents, seeing the beauty of Fanny, a heart gradually draws closer to her.
