Aunt Letty was a very tough old lady: aunts often were in those days.
蕾蒂姨妈是个强壮的老妇人；那时候姨妈们大都如此。
"And who, pray, are you going to entertain, Andrew?" asked Aunt Letty.
“你到底要招待谁，安德鲁，”蕾蒂姨妈问。
"No strong language in this house if you please, young woman," said Aunt Letty.
“请不要在这幢房子里讲粗话，女士。”蕾蒂姨妈说。
"You really must learn to control that temper of yours, my boy, " said Uncle Andrew coolly. "Otherwise you'll grow up like your Aunt Letty. Now. Attend to me. "
“你实在该学学怎样控制你的脾气，我的孩子，”安德鲁舅舅平静地说，”否则，你长大了，就会跟你的蕾蒂姨妈一样。好，现在听我的。”
"No, Andrew dear," said Aunty Letty in her firm, quiet voice, without looking up from her work. "I've told you times without number that I will not lend you money."
“不，亲爱的安德鲁，”蕾蒂姨妈头也不抬，用坚定、平静的口气说，“我说过无数次了，我不会借钱给你的。”
