I'm not sure which question you want answered so I'll go with your first one.

True, Tess is the young daughter of a rural working class family at the start of the novel, Tess Durbeyfield is sent to claim kinship with the wealthier side of her family, the d'Urbervilles, when her family faces imminent poverty.
