Read the excerpt from Little Women: For a year Jo and her Professor worked and waited, hoped and loved, met occasionally, and wrote such voluminous letters that the rise in the price of paper was accounted for, Laurie said. The second year began rather soberly, for their prospects did not brighten, and Aunt March died suddenly. But when their first sorrow was over-for they loved the old lady in spite of her sharp tongue-they found they had cause for rejoicing, for she had left Plumfield to Jo, which made all sorts of joyful things possible. What "joyful things" occur, as this excerpt alludes to? Jo and her Professor now have a house to live in. The Professor will be able to live out his dream of being a small farmer. Jo can sell Plumfield in order to travel the world with her Professor. Jo and her Professor will be able to open a boarding school.
