week 4

This week i have read book from chapters 12 to 14. In chapter 12, Oliver was sick for days, he was brought over to Mr. Brownlow's house and was treated by Mrs.Bedwin. When Oliver starts to walk arounds in the house, he sees portrait of women that he feels comforted by. One day, when Mr.Brownlow checks on Oliver, he reconginizes Oliver similar to the women and all of a sudden Oliver faints.In chapter 13 Charlie and Doger returns to Fagin without Oliver. Fagin is furious and throws beer at them. Instead, Sikes is hit. They send out Nancy to find out what has happend to him and they find out that Mr.Brownlow is in custody of him. One day, Mr.Brownlow calls him over to his study and asks for errand to deliver money to the owner of the bookstore and Oiver never comes back again.
I think these chapters were showing little bits about the life of the upper class in the industrialization era. Such as giving details of what those homes in the era looked like and how they lived inside. I wonder what connection there is between Oliver and the women in the portrait. Also what kinds of connection between those two people and Mr.Brownlow has. I think there will be some connections between the villans and Oliver directly in this story. I wonder what kinds of hidden secrets are there.
