"I don't see anything funny," she said gravely, when she could
be heard. "Nothing could be more natural and proper than for my
Professor to open a school, and for me to prefer to reside in my own estate."

This passage shows the character's serious and firm attitude. It makes me wonder why she doesn't find the situation funny and what her true feelings and motivations are behind her words. The language is simple yet effective in expressing the character's determination. The use of the word "gravely" emphasizes her seriousness. It also raises questions about the relationship between the "Professor" and her and the significance of their respective choices.
