Chapter 24: Lending a Hand
mostly repeated, she talked to every girl sitting here like today while her maid treated their injuries one after another.
其实每次与这些姑娘讨论这个共同的话题,虽然说的话大多都是重复的。她和一个又一个姑娘就这样坐着说着话,而她的小草一个又一个地为着这些受伤的姑娘敷药包扎。
Their looks of unyielding are so familiar, and only their faces are different.
不屈的神色是那么熟悉,只是不同的脸罢了。
"I appreciate your kindness. " The girl sitting opposite her suddenly said.
“谢谢你的善意。”坐在对面的女孩突然说道。
"Now that you''ve ended up here. Being stubborn won''t help. You know you''ve been sold. Why do you still be stubborn? Aren''t you afraid of death?"
“既然你已经到了这里,再固执也没用。你知道你已经被卖了,为什么你还这么固执?你不怕死吗?”
The girl didn’t answer her.
这个姑娘没有回话。
"You want to die?" She asked again.
“你想求死?”她再问道。
"Yes, I''d rather die than live in a place like this. Everybody is afraid of death, but you underestimate me. I am educated, and I will never live in dishonor. I will protect my dignity with my life." she looked at her contemptuously when she said that, and her words implied something.
“是,既然我落在这种地方生不如死,不如求死。人人都怕死,但你们这些人低估了我,我读过圣贤书,我绝不活在耻辱中,我会用生命保护我的尊严。”说这话的时候她轻蔑地瞧了瞧她,话语中有着很明显的意有所指。
