Sense and Sensibility《理智与情感》--Jane Austen简.奥斯丁
In the mean time, till all these alterations could be made from the savings of an income of five hundred a-year by a woman who never saved in her life, they were wise enough to be contented with the house as it was; and each of them was busy in arranging their particular concerns, and endeavoring, by placing around them books and other possessions, to form themselves a home. Marianne'spianofortewas unpacked and properly disposed of; and Elinor's drawings were affixed to the walls of their sitting room.
一个妇女,一生从未攒过钱,现在居然要从一年五百镑的收入中攒钱完成所有这些改修工作。在改修工作没有完成之前,她们倒明智地认为,就按现在的样子,这房子也满不错了。她们都在各忙各的私事,在四周摆上自己的书籍等物,以便给自己建个小天地。玛丽安的钢琴给拆了包,放在恰当的位置。埃丽诺的图画挂在客厅的墙壁上。
In such employments as these they were interrupted soon after breakfast the next day by the entrance of their landlord, who called to welcome them to Barton, and to offer them every accommodation from his own house and garden in which theirs might at present be deficient. Sir John Middleton was a good looking man about forty. He had formerly visited at Stanhill, but it was too long for his young cousins to remember him. His countenance was thoroughlygood-humoured; and his manners were as friendly as the style of his letter.
