Austen provides details to portray Mrs. Palmer as an outgoing gossip and her husband as grumpy and unsociable. True or False

It is true. In Sense and Sensibility, by Jane Austen, the author describes Mrs. Palmer as a sweet lady, who is a little giggly and silly sometimes, but a nice person. On the other hand, Austen describes her husband as a person with bad social behavior, but who really gets along with his wife and care for her, although he might not show this in public.
