Mr. Brocklehurst and his family never came near Lowood now: household matters were not scrutinised into; the cross housekeeper was gone, driven away by the fear of infection; her successor, who had been matron at the Lowton Dispensary, unused to the ways of her new abode, provided with comparative liberality.
Mr. Blocklehurst y su familia no se acercaban ahora nunca a Lowood, el ama de llaves se había marchado por miedo a la infección, y su sucesora, antigua matrona en el dispensario de Lowton, era más tolerante y más compasiva.
