  If Tess had met Angel's parents, not his brothers, at Emminster, the story could have taken a more positive turn. Angel's parents might have provided the emotional support and understanding that Tess needed, and encouraged Angel to reconsider his decision.

  After Brazil, Angel decided to forgive Tess. The second question is that the reason Tess's family was kicked out was because her father passed away, and then their family was kicked out due to poverty and debt issues

  In Thomas Hardy's novel "Tess of the d'Urbervilles," Tess goes back to Alec d'Urberville due to a combination of desperation, coercion, and a sense of duty. After facing numerous hardships and feeling abandoned by Angel Clare, Tess succumbs to Alec's manipulative tactics and returns to him out of a sense of obligation to provide for her family. As for why Tess kills Alec, it's a pivotal moment in the story. After enduring years of emotional and physical torment at the hands of Alec, Tess reaches a breaking point when he continues to pursue her despite her pleas for him to leave her alone. In a moment of desperation and defiance, Tess ultimately takes his life as a way to free herself from his oppressive influence and to seek retribution for the suffering he has caused her. This act sets off a chain of events that lead to the tragic conclusion of the novel.

  After living in Brazil, Angel's attitude underwent a significant change. In the difficult life in Brazil, he deeply experienced poverty and difficulties, which made him more mature and strong. At the same time, being away from his hometown and past life also gives him the opportunity to re-examine his values and outlook on life. He began to reflect on his lack of understanding and prejudice towards Tess's past, as well as his blind adherence to traditional moral concepts. This reflection and growth filled him with guilt and longing for Tess, and his attitude became more tolerant and understanding. As for the Durbeyfield family, they had to leave their thatched cottage mainly because the death of Alec Duberville sparked social attention and investigation. As a victim of Alec, Tess became the focus of the investigation. This incident has brought tremendous pressure and anxiety to the entire family, who are concerned about being implicated or blamed for their relationship with Tess. In order to evade such social public opinion and possible legal action, The Durbeyfield family was forced to leave their long lived thatched cottage and began a tumultuous life. Therefore, Angel's experience in Brazil has made his attitude more mature and understandable, while the departure of the Durbeyfield family was due to social investigations and public opinion pressure caused by Tess's relationship with Alec. These two events have profoundly influenced the fate and life trajectory of the relevant characters.
