O - anything! Will you speak for me?' ¡¡¡¡`You will do better by speaking for yourself.' ¡¡¡¡`Very well. Now, Marian, remember - nothing about him, if I get the place. I don't wish to bring his name down to the dirt.' ¡¡¡¡Marian, who was really a trustworthy girl though of coarser grain than Tess, promised anything she asked. ¡¡¡¡`This is pay-night,' she said, `and if you were to come with me you would know at once. I be real sorry that you are not happy; but 'tis because he's away, I know. You couldn't be unhappy if he were here, even if he gie'd ye no money - even if he used you like a drudge.' ¡¡¡¡`That's true; I could not!' ¡¡¡¡They walked on together, and soon reached the farmhouse, which was almost sublime in its dreariness. There was not a tree within sight; there was not, at this season, a green pasture nothing but fallow and turnips everywhere; in large fields divided by hedges plashed to unrelieved levels. ¡¡¡¡Tess waited outside the door of the farmhouse till the group of work-folk had received their wages, and then Marian introduced her. The farmer himself, it appeared, was not at home, but his wife, who represented him this evening, made no objection to hiring Tess, on her agreeing to remain till Old Lady-Day. Female field-labour was seldom offered now, and its cheapness made it profitable for tasks which women could perform as readily as men.
