The narrator was value quiet and peace as live in the village, she care other than beside the wealth and she value of free. .
             In addition it showed us that the narrator prefer to live in the village that as the town. "As for living in a town-if town this is why, there is nothing I would fly from sooner if I could go back go the sweet quiet of village life (pg70)".
