ealistic as Jane Austen was, she knew clearly money played an important role in a woman's successful marriage. Austen was equally aware of the socio-economic convenience marriages brought to single women in her society, particularly those women whose economic circumstances made the marriage the only recourse for their survival in a society where recourses for the single women's survival were very few indeed. Austen wrote in her letter, “Single women have a dreadful propensity for being poor, which is one very strong argument in favor of Matromonity.”
 
In the light of all this, it is not surprising that Austen's preference for the love-match is with an awareness of the very understandable motive behind a marriage of convenience.
 
To some degree, this kind of sense about money, which not only the essential factor of Emma’s tortuous love, and also the fundamental reason about Austen’s hardship of her personal love and pursuit.
 
4.2 Over-emphasis on the Hierarchy in Marriage
 
Emma is a girl with the sense of Hierarchy, she always judge everything by social status, so sometimes, Emma is snobbish, selfish, and cruel.
 
Emma is shocked to hear Mrs. Weston's suggestion of a match between Jane Fairfax and Mr. George Knightley. Emma's real objection lies in her affection for the man, but she is not aware of it yet. Instead she uses the excuse that Mr. Knightley cannot marry, because if he does little Henry Knightley, the son of Isabella and John Knightley, will not inherit Donwell. The family home would pass to Henry if his uncle did not marry or have any children of his own, and Emma tells Mrs. Weston that it would be tragic if that were to occur.

Emma did not want her nephew’s property divided by others in another hand, she looks down upon Jane Fairfax’s low status. If George Knightley married Jane Fairfax, It will improve Jane Fairfax’s social status and meanwhile, Mr. Knightley’s social status will be reduced to a great extent.
 
Another poor lady Harriet is also a typical example. Mr. Elton, Churchill, or Mr. Knightley, these gentlemen with high social status, clearly realized the difference of social status, nobody will consider Harriet as their wife. Mr. Elton is closed with Harriet superficially, actually, he just takes Harriet as a bridge to connect with Emma. Mr. Knightley completely realized Harriet’s position, and what fits her more. But her friend Emma did not help Harriet to marry a gentleman in high status seriously, she just wants to find a little bit superior man for Harriet, so that Harriet would not waste her beautiful and elegant face.
  
Ⅴ.Conclusion
 
The novel by Jane Austen is characterized by the unique feminine and keen realistic insight. Different from the men realistic novelists, she writes from a keen feminine visual angle. Feminist consciousness focuses on the women characters' inner lives during their self- development written by women writers.
