经典小说:《傲慢与偏见》第55章(2)
The same anxiety to get them by themselves was visible again in the evening. After tea, Mr. Bennet retired to the library, as was his custom, and Mary went up stairs to her instrument. Two obstacles of the five being thus removed, Mrs. Bennet sat looking and winking at Elizabeth and Catherine for a considerable time, without making any impression on them. Elizabeth would not observe her; and when at last Kitty did, she very innocently said, "What is the matter mamma? What do you keep winking at me for? What am I to do?"
到了下午,显见得班纳特太太又一心要成全他们两人在一起。喝过了茶,班纳特先生照着他平常的习惯,到书房里去了,曼丽上楼弹琴去了。班太太看见五个障碍去了两个,便立刻对伊丽莎白和咖苔琳挤眉弄眼,吉蒂终于很天真地说:“怎么啦,妈妈?你为什么老是对我眨眼?你要我做什么呀?”
"Nothing child, nothing. I did not wink at you." She then sat still five minutes longer; but unable to waste such a precious occasion, she suddenly got up, and saying to Kitty, "Come here, my love, I want to speak to you," took her out of the room. Jane instantly gave a look at Elizabeth which spoke her distress at such premeditation, and her intreaty that she would not give in to it.
“没什么,孩子,没什么。我没有对你眨眼。”于是她又多坐了五分钟,实在不愿意再错过这大好的机会,她便突然站起来,对吉蒂说:“来,宝贝,我跟你说句话,”说过这话,她便把吉蒂拉了出去。
In a few minutes, Mrs. Bennet half-opened the door and called out, "Lizzy, my dear, I want to speak with you."
一眨眼工夫,只见班纳特太太打开了半边门,喊道:“丽萃,亲爱的,我要跟你说句话。”
Elizabeth was forced to go.
伊丽莎白只得走出去。
"We may as well leave them by themselves you know."Elizabeth made no attempt to reason with her mother, but remained quietly in the hall, till she and Kitty were out of sight, then returned into the drawing room.
一走进穿堂,她母亲就对她说:“我们最好不要去打扰他们。”伊丽莎白没有跟她争辩,静静地留在穿堂里,等母亲和吉蒂走得看不见了,才又回到会客室来。
Mrs. Bennet's schemes for this day were ineffectual. Bingley was every thing that was charming, except the professed lover of her daughter. His ease and cheerfulness rendered him a most agreeable addition to their evening party; and he bore with the ill-judged officiousness of the mother, and heard all her silly remarks with a forbearance and command of countenance particularly grateful to the daughter.
班纳特太太这一天的打算没有如愿。彬格莱样样都讨人喜爱,只可惜没有公然以她女儿的情人自居。他安然自若,神情愉快,在她们晚间的家庭聚会上,人人都喜欢他。虽然班纳特太太不知分寸,多管闲事,他却竭力忍受;尽管她讲出多少蠢话,他也一些不动声色,很有耐性地听着,这特别叫那女儿满意。
