TeacherGwen 我们一起神翻译|11.23

There were letters for her at the bureau, one from her brother, full of athletics and biology; one from her mother, delightful as only her mother's letters could be. She had read in it of the crocuses which had been bought for yellow and were coming up puce, of the new parlour-maid, who had watered the ferns with essence of lemonade, of the semi-detached cottages which were ruining Summer Street, and breaking the heart of Sir Harry Otway. 书桌上有给她的信件，一封来自她的兄弟，满篇的体育和生物；一封来自她的母亲，书信内容兴高采烈似乎只有她母亲的信件内容才能这样兴高采烈。从书信里她了解到：买来的那株黄色的藏红花已经长出黄褐色的膜质包被，新来的客厅女仆用柠檬汁浇灌家里的蕨类，那座半独立式小屋“破坏”了夏街也让Harry Otway先生心碎。
