《印度之行的阅读笔记》勤劳的朱妞妞

80、第 80 章 第八十页

　　M还继续说，真是粗枝大叶啊
　　"And there she lives in comfort: you will enjoy seeing her....Dear me, I've got a headache this evening. Perhaps I am going to have cholera. With your permission, I'll leave early."
　　AZ/F更加不安了。

　　"Aziz, you have forgiven me the stupid remark I made this morning?"
　　"When you called me a little rotter?"
　　"Yes, to my eternal confusion. You know how fond I am of you."
　　这里是M的表白了。M的表白总是不够F浪漫啊，真是有点刻板啊。不过也正因此，你们两个才是绝配吧。M还是有点太害羞了。
　　"That is nothing, of course; we all of us make mistakes. In a friendship such as ours a few slips差错 are of no consequence."
　　F嘴硬，心里其实担心M爱上别人。

　　To divert the conversation, Hassan仆人，指F， related讲述 how the kitchen-boy had killed a snake, good, but killed it by cutting it in two, bad, because it becomes two snakes.
　　"When he breaks a plate, does it become two plates?"
　　F担心，M与X的决裂会带来X2。然后自己会重复当年的痛苦。唉，其实F是很爱M的啊。

　　He指F/M wrote an elaborate详尽的 letter in the rather modern style时兴笔调: "It is on my mind that you think me a prude假正经 about women. I had rather you thought anything else of me. If I live impeccably无可指责 now, it is only because I am well on the forties a period of revision自我修正. In the eighties I shall revise again. And before the nineties come I shall be revised!等他人修正我 But, alive or dead, I am absolutely devoid of morals不会有男女道德问题. Do kindly grasp this
　　about me." Aziz did not care for the letter at all. It hurt his delicacy敏感. He liked confidences秘密, however gross粗俗与否不介意, but generalizations一般化概述 and comparisons对比 always repelled让他反感 him.
　　M主要没有抓住重点，如果表达对F的爱的话，就会反而好很多了。

　　He指AZ/F， replied coldly, regretting表示遗憾 his inability to return from Mussoorie穆索里，另一个地名，2个孩子所在之地 before his friend sailed: " But I must take my poor little holiday while I can. All must be economy henceforward; all hopes of Kashmir克什米尔度假之约 have vanished for ever and ever. When
　　you return I shall be slaving far away in some new post."
　　F还是很绝望啊。还表示无法为M送行了。笨F。

　　Cyril would marry Miss Quested he grew certain of it, all the unexplained residue残余之物 of the Marabar contributing贡献的. It was the natural conclusion结局 of the horrible senseless picnic野餐 and before long he persuaded himself that the wedding had actually taken place.
