埃尔顿先生重返海伯利村，带回一个仓促求爱成婚的新娘。这位妇人小有资产，极其粗俗，却偏偏矫揉造作，自命高雅。 Mr. Elton returned to the village with a hastily wooed and wedded bride, a lady of small fortune, extremely bad manners, and great pretensions to elegance.
她生活在娇揉造作的世界里。 She lives in a world of make-believe.
她的散文过於矫揉造作。 Her prose is far too mannered and self-conscious.
