经典双语美文：一生中的四位爱人

After many years, the merchant felt deadly ill of abusing alcohol. He knew it couldn’t cure. He was pale and stiff. When he reelected on his life-time, he couldn’t help yelling, “Now, I have four wives . But when I die I’ll be solitary. How lonely I will be!”

几年以后，商人因酗酒病重，他自知无法治愈，将不久于人世。他脸色苍白，身体僵硬。当他回顾自己的一生，不禁叫道：“现在我虽然有四个妻子相伴，但死后却要孤零零一人。多寂寞啊!”

Suffering from the sting of the body, he asked the fourth wife, “I have attached to you the most affection, and bought pretty clothes to you and spent every festival with you. Now I am dying, will you follow me?” “Pardon? I am not a self- sacrificing saint. No way!” The fourth wife who was sipping tea idly in her fur coat, defied him The answer made the merchant fiercely disappointed on her conscience.

忍着剧痛，他问小老婆：“我最疼你，给你买最漂亮的衣服，每个节日都陪你过。现在我就要离开这个世界了，你愿意陪我而去吗?”“什么?我又不是圣人!绝对不可能!”此刻，她正身穿裘皮大衣，悠闲地喝着茶。商人对小老婆的回答非常地失望。

Then he asked the third wife, “Do you remember our romantic experience? Now that I am dying, will you follow me?” the third wife glimpsed against him, “No” she denied. “I couldn’t bear the tedious life in hell. I deserve a better life. Consequently, it is of necessity that I marry other guys afterwards.” Then she was calculating the route of other millionaire’s home.
