Answer Details
Angel Clare prefers Tess to Mercy Chant as a wife because she understands farm life.

He falls in love with Tess because of her natural beauty and her ability to work hard on the farm. Unlike Mercy Chant, who comes from a more privileged background and is not used to the hardships of rural life, Tess is able to connect with Angel on a deeper level and they are able to build a strong relationship based on mutual understanding and respect for each other's way of life.
