我觉得你不明白 I don't think you understand
镇上反对蓝党的情感 the strength of feeling
有多强烈 夫人 in the town, ma'am - against the Blues.
我让这位建筑师来看看北门之家 I've got this architect coming to take a look at Northgate House.
- 哦 那还是我们的计划吗 - 哦 是的 - Oh, that's still our plan? - Oh, yes.
你收到你姐姐的来信了吗 小姐 Have you had a letter from your sister, ma'am?
没有 No.
她已发出驱逐指示 She's sent instruction for evictions.
洛森一家现在有四到五英亩的煤炭 The Rawsons have now had between four and five acres of your coal.
你怎么会知道这样的事 How could you know a thing like that?
"恭喜史顿庄园的汤姆·李斯顿上尉" "The marriage of Captain Tom Lister of Shibden Hall"
"与鸦巢庄园的安·沃克小姐结为连理" "to Miss Ann Walker of Crow Nest."
是个玩笑吧 故意的 It's a joke. It's a skit.
我想他的道歉是真心的 I think it's genuine, the apology.
那位编辑以为自己翻印的 I think the editor really had no idea he was reprinting anything
是真实的结婚公告 other than a bona fide marriage announcement.
嗯哼 Hmm.
报社内部询问了 Internal enquiries were made at the newspaper office
这篇文章是如何被翻印的 about how the item came to be reprinted.
虽没有定论 It was inconclusive,
但是编辑很抱歉翻印前 but the editor apologises for not being more rigorous
没有更严谨地查证 before it went into print a second time and for the...
也为这则公告造成的尴尬道歉 ...embarrassment it caused.
我倒是不觉得尴尬 Oh, I wasn't embarrassed.
但至少能让沃克小姐满意 But this will satisfy Miss Walker, at least,
她可没想到哈利法克斯卫报 who did not expect to see it reprinted
会再翻印一次 in the Halifax Guardian.
下一件事 Moving on...
布莱德利去北门之家估了价 Bradley has assessed Northgate House.
认为我需要再花一千英镑 He thinks I need to spend
才能改造成舒适的旅店 another ￡1,000 to turn it into a good inn.
汤玛斯·格林伍德认为 And then Thomas Greenwood's all for leasing it
租金应该订在一年两百英镑 at ￡200 a year,
虽然布莱德利认为 我该开价接近三百英镑 although Bradley thinks I should be asking nearer 300.
您不考虑一下吗 Would it not be wise,
虽然我这是老调重弹 at the risk of repeating myself,
但您能卖掉北门之家 偿还部分贷款 to sell it and settle some of your borrowing?
不要 天啊 我们讨论过了 No! Good Lord, no. We've had this conversation.
而且我决定接受莫森的提议 Oh, and I've decided to accept Mawson's offer
他要租史唐十字旅店 for the tenancy of the Stump Cross Inn.
他好像是... Well, he seems to be...
很好 我会请他来找你... Good. I'll tell him to come and see you
签租约 about signing the lease.
还有亚齐拉·格林 似乎对麦森很感兴趣 And Mytholm, it looks like Aquilla Green might take it.
但我以为麦林森... Oh, I thought that Mallinson...
麦林森是黄党的 Mallinson is a Yellow.
我和他谈过了 I spoke to him about it,
他承认自己绝不可能投蓝党一票 and he admitted he would never dare give a Blue vote,
就这样吧 我跟他说过 so that's that. I told him,
投蓝党才租他 until he could, we couldn't agree.
您得当心点 You do need to be careful.
是啊 这是胁迫投票人 Oh, yes, electoral intimidation.
我大概很快就会 Yes, I suppose they'll have me
被送到委员会面前 up before the select committee before long,
你看着 我会很乐意出席 and believe you me, I would go, and with pleasure.
- 但是... - 黄党 - Yes, it's... - The Yellows
做尽这种排除异己的勾当 are the authors of this repugnant practice
可不是我啊 帕克先生 of exclusive dealing, Mr Parker, not me,
威廉·布里格尽管在卫报上否认吧 for all Mr William Briggs's efforts to disclaim it in the Guardian.
他一定会否认的 因为黄党的就是废物 And well may he do so, for the Yellows are the losers.
前几天我还得摆脸色给尼克森先生看 I had to be really quite sharp with Mr Nicholson the other day,
好让他的一个年轻员工 due to the want of civility shown Miss Walker
对沃克小姐礼貌一些 by one of his young men.
我们是可能还会再去消费 We may shop there again
因为我们不在乎人家这种胡闹 because we pride ourselves in rising above such nonsense,
其他人被这样无礼对待 but others won't,
可忍不下去 not if they're addressed so impertinently.
尼克森先生会如何 And then, where would Mr Nicholson be? Hmm?
- 只能关门大吉了 - 我同意 - Out of business. - I agree.
在哈利法克斯这种贸易为主的城镇 我们都依靠着... In a trading town like Halifax, we all depend on...
还有那篇愚蠢的婚姻公告 And what was that idiotic marriage announcement
不就是想吓唬我和羞辱我吗 if not some feeble attempt to intimidate, to humiliate me?
畏首畏尾地打这种泥巴战 Some cowardly effort to point a finger
就因为他们不喜欢我的意见 because they don't like my opinions,
或是我这个人的一切吗 or the cut of my jib, or any of it.
是的 这... Yes, that's...
竟然有人胆敢吓唬我 How dare anyone speak to me about intimidation?
情况如何 How are you getting on?
有很糟糕的消息 We've had some very bad news.
是安妮吗 Is that Anne?
萨德兰先生过世了 Mr Sunderland's dead.
我们刚收到肯尼医生的通知 We've just had a note from Dr Kenny.
他们昨晚整晚在一起 还有约伯医生 He was with him all last night, him and Dr Jubb,
然后他就死了 and then he died,
那时才过午夜 人就这样没了 just gone midnight, just like that.
他是怎么回事 Well, what was the matter with him?
显然是腹部出血 Gout of the stomach,
虽然他... apparently. Although...
婶婶 - Aunt... - Oh...
他在哈利法克斯的冲突中 Apparently, he was knocked down
被撞倒在地 in Halifax in some skirmish.
就在宣布选举结果后发生的 And this was after the election result was declared.
他肯定是被夹在人群中 He must've got caught up in the throng
撞到头之类的 and banged his head and...
他们说他应该被人踩踏过 They think he was trampled on.
天啊 - 他们何时才会闹完 - No. - Where will it end, all this nastiness?
你很安全的 婶婶 You're perfectly safe, Aunt.
我是很安全 但你呢 你从来就不在家 Yes, I am. But what about you? You're never in.
但我也不会跑很远 Well, I'm never very far away,
我有很多生意要处理 and I have a lot of business on hand, so...
可怜的萨德兰先生 Poor, poor Mr Sunderland.
肯尼医生说他能来治疗婶婶... Dr Kenny's offered to visit Aunt Anne if she...
不行 No!
不不不不 No. No, no, no.
不 我们有需要就找约伯医生 No, we'll send for Dr Jubb when we need someone.
但是肯尼医生说他... Dr Kenny's offering... Anne?
是安妮回来了吗 Is that her?
对了 父亲要见你 Oh, yes. Father wants to see you.
我宁愿给约伯医生看诊 I'd rather see Dr Jubb.
肯尼医生哪里不好了 I don't know what's the matter with Dr Kenny.
他很... He's perfectly...
父亲 怎么了 Yes, Father.
你跑哪儿去了 Where have you been?
没去哪里 就去了哈利法克斯 Nowhere. Well, Halifax.
现在要去矿坑找辛斯克利夫 Now I'm going to the pit to see Hinscliffe.
我收到这个 去关门 This arrived. Shut that door!
这个送来了 This came.
我开了信 I opened it.
以为是寄给我的 收件人写"李斯特上尉" I assumed it was for me, Captain Lister.
但显然不是我的 But clearly not.
刻意的挖苦和嘲笑 请求"恭喜新人" Some wit, some wag begging to congratulate the parties
"结为连理" on their happy connection.
-有谁看过这个 没人看过 - Who's seen this? - Nobody.
沃克小姐看过吗 Has Miss Walker seen this?
-没有 - 婶婶看过吗 - No! - Has Aunt Anne seen this?
没有 只有我看过 No. Just me.
一定是布里格搞的鬼 我跟你赌是他们 It'll be the Briggses. Ten to one, it's the Briggses.
要不是你这么奇怪 You know, if you didn't draw attention
刻意吸引人家的注意 to how odd you are,
他们就不会做这种事了 they wouldn't do these things.
你最好起床更衣 You'd better get up and get dressed
去呼吸点新鲜空气 and get some fresh air.
整天躺在床上是好不了的 You won't recover lying in bed all day.
我很惊讶你们挖了这么久还没好 I'm amazed you've been at it this long and not got it sunk.
我们之前运气不太好 矿坑曾经一度塌陷 Well, we've been unlucky. It collapsed at one point.
只好停下其他工程 And then we had to put everything on hold
先建好引水道 还费了一番工夫 to build the drift. Oh, and there was another pantomime
才找到合适的马匹来拉机器 finding a horse fit to turn the gin.
那是霍特 That was Holt.
但我们现在挖了九十码了 But we're at 90 yards now.
他们说挖到底下的矿床 And they're confident they can reach the lower bed
要到六 七月 或者八月 by June, July, August.
所以我很欢迎 But, yes, this is why
第二个人的意见 a second opinion wouldn't go amiss.
不能再拖下去了 我需要好的建言 I can't afford any more delays. I need good advice.
我满喜欢霍特的 但是... I do like Holt, but...
原本的计划是什么 What's the plan, once it's sunk?
挖好后要卖矿吗 卖给这里的人还是在哈利法克斯卖 Where will you sell it? Up here or down in Halifax?
都卖 皮可士沿着上面开了新的路 Both. Pickels is building a new road along the top
在威斯坎下面的老河岸会和 to join the Old Bank just below Whiskham,
我就能用车载去哈利法克斯 then I can cart it down into Halifax, sell it there
能比在矿坑外多卖一先令 for a shilling more than I can at the pit mouth.
但是... But...
开采和买卖煤矿只是计划的一部分 ...getting and selling coal is just one part of the scheme.
Mm-hm.
另一部分是... The other would be...
让我能把... ...to be in a position
洛森家的矿坑淹掉 where I could throw water on Rawson's pit.
不只是阻止他们侵占 而是要证明这件事 Not just to stop the trespass, but to prove it.
要尽快 And soon.
我说过了 Well, like I said,
惠勒丘矿坑的生意 we might have fallen out over that business
我俩虽然闹得不愉快 up at Willy Hill pit,
但只要是为了对付洛森家 but when it comes to dealing with the Rawsons,
我愿意跟任何人合作 I'll be a friend to anyone who'll be a friend to me.
谢谢 Thank you.
你知道我买下史塔普斯庄园吗 Did you know I've bought Staups?
你得到史匹克煤矿了 So, you've got Spiggs colliery?
还有一些复杂的细节要办 There's a little complication that needs dealing with,
但没错 照理说 but, yes, strategically, potentially,
它能让我有更多策略上的选择 it gives me more options
让我更有效掌握 and a lot more control over the coal
我土地上的煤矿资源 across the whole of my estate.
我看得出来 Oh, I can see that.
若能妥善管理的话 If it's handled well.
我不确定霍特能不能想出 I don't know that I can rely on Holt
一个可靠完善的计划 to come up with a good solid, coordinated plan
并且无须我 and see it through
亲自监督便能实行 without me having to manage the thing myself.
但若你能帮我 But if you helped me...
我已经考虑了一阵子 I've been thinking, for a while,
我想再开一个矿坑 about opening a new pit
更靠近这边 further down this way.
看来你已经有了计划 Sounds like you've got a plan.
何必需要我呢 Why would you need me?
因为我不够专业 Because I don't know enough.
我每天都会学到新知识 I learn more and more every day,
懂得越多 and the more I learn,
就越知道会出什么错 the more I realise how much can go wrong
还有我真是什么都不懂 and how much I don't know,
这个产业真难搞 and what a slippery business it all is.
这就是为什么我不讨厌霍特 See, this is why I don't dislike Holt.
虽然他犯了很多错 For all of his faults, I...
我还是相信他非常诚实 ...I do believe he's as straight as a die.
而你呢 辛斯克利夫 Whereas you, Hinscliffe,
我不太确定 I'm not really sure
我对你的信任并非唾手可得 I could trust you any further than I could spit.
虽然我不吐口水的 Not that I ever would.
您要怎么想我都行，李斯特小姐 You can think what you like about me, Miss Lister,
但我们话说在前头 but the bottom line is,
这次我卖您个人情 I'm hoping if I do you a favour,
下次我需要帮忙时 happen next time I need one back,
希望您会比上一次 you'd be more inclined to oblige me
更乐意帮我 than you were last time.
你有什么复杂的细节 What's this little complication
需要我处理呢 that needs dealing with?
威廉·齐斯利 约翰·欧兹和杰克·葛林认为 William Keighley and John Oates and Jack Green believe
他们有权开采 they have some kind of claim
史匹克煤矿底下的散矿 to the loose coal underneath Spiggs land,
但其实那都是我的了 which, to be clear, I already owned,
而他们也只能从我新购入的空坑进去 but which they can only access via my newly acquired colliery.
我叔叔的纪录上根本没有这些 But there's nothing about it in my uncle's records, which there would be
若他们就散矿谈过合作 应该要有纪录 if he'd have come to an arrangement with them about the loose.
所以我想把史匹克矿坑淹掉 So, I'm wondering about flooding Spiggs,
矿坑是我的 我当然能这样做 which I can do because I own it,
还能阻止他们开采散矿 and stopping them taking the loose.
另外 在我挖完与被盗采之前 Except, then, the worry is I might flood Walker pit at the same time,
我担心这样也会淹到沃克家的矿井 before I've bottomed it and got to the trespass.
不会的 You wouldn't.
真的 Really?
您淹掉史匹克矿场 不会动到沃克家的矿井 If you flooded Spiggs, it wouldn't touch Walker pit.
Oh?
您是要亲自开除霍特 Now, will you tell Holt
还是让我告诉他 you're getting rid of him, or shall I?
霍特 Holt.
我就不进去了 I-I won't come in.
我有件事要告诉你 So, I need to talk to you about...
您好吗 小姐 How are you, ma'am?
我很好 是这样的... Very well. So, the thing is...
谢谢你 事情是这样的... Thank you. The thing is... What it is...
我今天本来要去见您呢 I was going to pop over and see you today
讨论沃克普莱斯特利先生的煤矿 还有马钦太太家的煤矿 about Mr Walker Priestley's coal and Mrs Machin's coal.
他们怎么了 What about them?
他愿意用一亩160英镑的价钱出售他的煤矿 Well, he will sell his coal at ￡160 an acre.
两张矿床都行 硬床 软床 上下都卖 Both beds, hard and soft, upper and lower.
我出价140英镑 I've offered him 140.
他说给他十天想想 He's asked for ten days to think about it,
不过私底下呢 but between you and me,
我是建议您 160英镑成交 也好过错失良机 I'd go up to 160 rather than miss the deal,
否则他就会去找洛森家 because he'll be tempted to go to Rawson otherwise.
我们不希望那样吧 And we don't want that, do we?
那边可不行 Not down there!
马钦太太那儿也是一样 Same with t'Machins'.
他们答应把优先权给我 Now, they've promised me first refusal.
但他们还有个棘手的问题 And it's more complicated again with them, like.
-您也知道她喝得多凶 - 谁 - You know she drinks. - Who does?
-马钦太太呀 - 我不清楚 - She does. Mrs Machin. - No, I didn't know that.
我怎么会知道这种事 How...how would I know that?
麻烦的是 Thing is,
那块地一半是她的 the land was left half to her
一半是她孩子们的 而这些子女处得不太好 and half to her children, and they don't all get on.
她有个女儿因为欠债在约克堡坐牢 Well, there's one daughter in York Castle for debt.
所以他们所有人都得同意出售采矿权 So, they all have to agree who they sell the coal rights to,
但他们连这个都谈不拢了 and they can hardly agree which way is up,
更别说要把矿卖给谁 never mind who they might sell their coal to.
现在呢 我和他们还不错 Now, I'm well in with 'em...
够熟了 跟其他人差不多 Well enough. As well as anybody.
他们比较情愿卖给我 ...and they'd sell it to me rather than him,
而不想卖给洛森 Rawson, by choice -
当然我是以您的名义买啦 me buying on your behalf, of course -
他们不用知道那么多 not that they need know that.
但若他愿意分权利金给他们 But if he offers 'em a premium,
可能会有人倒向他那边 one of 'em might get it into their heads to go with him.
您不能让这种事发生 And you can't let that happen.
那边绝对不行 Not down there.
否则 洛森就... Otherwise, Rawson's got
又有了后门能通往您的矿床 another back door straight onto your beds.
您懂吗 Do you see that?
Mm.
若我想把史匹克矿坑淹掉 If I was to flood Spiggs colliery
不让他们开采散矿 to stop access to the loose coal,
我应该不会不小心 there's no danger
同时把沃克矿井也淹掉吧 that I could accidentally flood Walker pit at the same time, is there?
会呀 Oh, yes.
很有可能会... Well, it's highly probable you wou...
谁跟您说不会了 Who's told you different?
我不知道该相信谁 I don't know who to believe.
我本来要开除霍特了 但我...需要他 I was going to let Holt go, but I...I need him.
我只需要更妥善地管理他们 I just need to manage them all better.
我请霍特替我处理 I told Holt that he must take care
沃克普莱斯特利和马钦家的矿井 of Mr Walker Priestley's coal for me, and the Machins',
又跟他说 我会请辛斯克利夫 and then I explained that I'd instructed Hinscliffe
帮我设计顾好沃克矿井的计划 to work up a plan to look after Walker pit for me.
他反应如何 How did he take that?
很糟 但是... Badly, but...
我得再多了解这两个人 ...I need to glean what I can from them all,
然后... and then...
才有办法自己判断 ...make my own judgments.
Mm.
他们说霍特酗酒 They say that Holt drinks, but...
但我从没在他身上闻过酒味 ...I've never smelt it on him.
他年纪也大了吧 Well, he's getting on a bit, isn't he?
也许他只是忘记了 Perhaps he's just forgetting.
对不起 今天早上让你难过 I'm sorry if I upset you this morning.
我总是希望能为你好 I've always tried to do my best for you,
用尽各种方法 one way and another.
但我... It's just I...
我不一定知道该怎么做 I haven't always known how.
若我说错话 我道歉 And I'm sorry if I said the wrong thing.
你确定北门之家这桩生意妥当吗 Are you sure about this Northgate business?
改建成旅店 Turning it into a hotel?
这样很花钱 It'll cost money,
万一失败了呢 and...what if it fails?
你不希望成为笑柄吧 You don't want to get yourself laughed at.
晚安 Goodnight.
小安 Adny?
别靠着我 Stop leaning on me.
怎么了 What's the matter? Hmm?
我的小安 My little Adny.
你得去刷牙 You need to brush your teeth.
我读了你的信 I read your letter.
写给哥本哈根哈丽叶夫人的 To Lady Harriet in Copenhagen.
里面写了什么吗 Was there something the matter with it?
我写得很含蓄吧 Was it not elegantly expressed? Hmm?
小安 我以为你会喜欢 Adny, I thought you'd like it.
我还以为你会高兴 I thought you'd be charmed by it.
是不喜欢写到你的部分吗 Was it the bit about you?
小安 我问过能不能提到你 Adny? I did ask if I might mention you,
你当时很乐意呀 and you were delighted.
是我... Did I...
是我误会了吗 Did I misread that?
小安 我今天很累了 Adny, I've had a long day.
整天都在应付男人 I've been dealing with men all day.
那些烦人 口齿不清的男人 Tiresome, inarticulate men.
大声念你是怎么写我的 Read it. Aloud. The bit about me.
Ah.
"你曾好奇我会与谁做伴" "You used to wonder who would be my companion."
"我找到了你会喜欢的对象" "I think I have provided one you will like."
"她娇小可爱 为人聪明良善" "She is little and amiable with a great deal of common sense and good feeling."
"她和我同住在史顿庄园" "She is now with me here, at Shibden,"
"我从未感到如此自在过" "and I have never before been so comfortable at home."
你哪里不喜欢 What's not to like?
你写在括号里 你把我写在括号里面 It's in brackets. You've put me in brackets!
这是补充 是说明文字呀 这一段比较长 It's a clause, an aside, in a bigger paragraph
是在讨论我们希望... about when she and I hope...
讨论下次何时见面 ...when we all will next meet.
对 我是"补充" 是"说明文字" Yes, I'm a clause, I'm an aside.
胡说 这是优雅的插入语 Nonsense. It's an elegant interjection.
你随便就带过了 I've been canvassed over.
不是 我很优雅地介绍你 No, you've been elegantly introduced.
只是顺带一提 As an afterthought.
我很遗憾你是这样解读 I'm sorry if you think that's how it reads.
"我很遗憾你是这样" "I'm sorry if you think"?
我真讨厌这句话 男人才这样说 Oh, I hate that. That's what men say.
"你是要说真遗憾 我太笨了才会误会" "I'm sorry if you're so stupid that you've misunderstood."
我从没有提到"笨" 也绝不会用那个字 I never said anything about stupid, nor would I.
- 这个字很糟糕 - 你影射了 - It's an ugly word. - It's implicit.
那我最好去重写一封信了 Well, then, I shall go and re-write my letter.
不用 No.
不用重写 You needn't do that.
我不想让你这么麻烦 I wouldn't wish to put you to the trouble.
只要删掉写到我的部分就好 You could merely delete any reference to me.
这样就行了 That would answer.
知道我的地位也好 Useful to know where I am...
我的阶级 ...in the pecking order.
这实在... That's just...
我的肠胃又乱了 My bowels are all wrong again.
小安 Adny?
我能进来吗 Can I come in?
这是你家 It's your house.
别说这种话 Don't say that.
我很抱歉伤了你 I'm sorry if I...hurt you.
我真不愿意... It's the last thing I'd...
只是... It's just...
那样写在信里比较恰当 ...striking the right note in a letter like that.
大家都在笑我们 People are laughing at us.
没有... 才没有 No... No, they're not.
哈丽叶夫人不会这么残酷低俗 Lady Harriet would never be so cruel or vulgar...
哈利法克斯的人在笑我们 In Halifax, they are.
那个白痴结婚公告 That idiotic marriage announcement,
还印了两次 reprinted twice,
还在尼克森店里丢脸 and then that humiliating business at Nicholson's.
我想在尼克森店里 Oh, I think if anyone's humiliated
丢脸的不是我们 at Nicholson's, it's not us,
是尼克森的那些傻蛋 it's Nicholson's silly lads.
我不要再去了 我知道你希望我们再去 I shan't go back there. I know you want us to...
我们得去 No, we must.
我们得一直去 We must make a point
才能表明立场 of going in there again and again.
我们得一直表明自己没有什么好隐瞒的 We must be consistently clear that we have nothing to hide,
也不需要觉得惭愧 nothing to be ashamed of.
我没有你坚强 I'm not strong like you.
我会一直拘泥这些事 I dwell on things.
你记得在鸦巢庄园 Do you remember at Crow Nest
被普莱斯特利太太撞见的事吗 when Mrs Priestley walked in on us,
你那时笑了 and you laughed?
我吓坏了... I was mortified, and you...
但你笑了 ...you laughed.
我想 那是我第一次 I think, in that moment, I saw for the first time
见到真正的你 the real you...
和大家一样勇敢 ...who's as brave as anyone.
你比自己想的坚强 You're stronger than you think.
李斯特小姐 我在想 What I'm wondering, Miss Lister,
我们的想法是否太局限了 is if we've been thinking too small.
我要的是平面图和立面图 布莱德利先生 I had expected ground plans and elevations, Mr Bradley,
照上次谈的内容设计 而不是更多草图 based on our last conversation, not more sketches.
那些都在进行了 Oh, they're all under way.
但您有这么大片土地 But you've got all this land.
我知道您希望这间旅店 And I know that you want your inn,
或赌场...随您称呼 casino, whatever you want to call it,
能在明年三月开始营运 up and running by March next year,
但按照一样的时程表来说 but within that same timescale - frame -
一切都看您想达成多大的野心 this all depends on how ambitious you want to be.
我想不会有人 Oh, I don't think anyone can accuse me
说我没有野心的 布莱德利先生 of lacking ambition, Mr Bradley.
正是如此 So... Exactly.
所以说 So, what if -
若您能轻易... and this is something you could easily accommodate
利用这些空间实现所有的规划 in the available space - it all depends upon
也要看您有多少资金能投入 how much capital you've got to play with -
若我们在这一区也大兴土木 but what if we were to build new premises here too?
假设盖一间银行吧 For, say, a bank?
还有一间报社 And a newsroom?
与其只留四到五间房子 And instead of four or five houses,
您这里的空间足够兴建28栋全新的屋舍 you've enough land here for 28 brand-new houses.
这个空间能够成为 This entire area could become
镇上新的商店街 a whole new commercial enclave within the town,
您想想这能带来多少租金收入 and think of the income that that could generate in rent.
Hmm.
您得拿到执照 You're going to need a licence for this, er, inn,
不管这周要叫它旅店或赌场 casino, whatever we're calling it this week.
若您真的要做 我就马上申请 And, if you're serious, I'd apply for it now.
总不能花了钱 There's no point in throwing money at the thing,
才发现治安官不愿意核发执照 then finding that the magistrates won't license it.
为什么会不愿意 Well, why wouldn't they?
因为克里斯多佛·洛森 Well, it's just with Christopher Rawson
是首席治安官 being the chief magistrate...
他没道理反对 Well, he'd have no reason.
这样的建设只会造福乡里 Such an establishment could only be an asset to the town.
没错 但我们都知道他的德性 Yes, but we both know what he's like.
交给我吧 Leave it with me.
布莱德利先生认为 Mr Bradley thinks
我要再花四千英镑 I'd need to spend another ￡4,000
才能实行这个新建案 on this new scheme.
李斯特小姐 Miss Lister...
我一直想问 Oh, I've been meaning to ask.
若我有1001个理由是个男人 If I were a man, for which I have 1,001 reasons
谢天谢地还好我不是 to thank heaven and Providence that I'm not,
听到我要贷这样一笔金额 would you even think to question
你还会质疑我吗 the amount of money I'm borrowing?
还好吗 All right?
布斯先生 Mr Booth.
约伯医生 Dr Jubb.
- 你听说了吗 - 听说什么 - Have you heard the news, sir? - Which, sir?
国会呀 被解散了 Parliament, sir. Dissolved.
我们都听说了 李斯特小姐正在... Oh, yeah. We all know about it. Miss Lister's...
因此 我们必须再次忍受冷漠的墨尔本 So, we must endure an indifferent Melbourne
那时我们可能拥有 once again, when we might have had
皮尔人的智慧和正直 the intellect and integrity of a Peel.
你们都听到哈利法克斯的新消息了 And you'll have heard the latest in Halifax.
若查尔斯·伍德接任辉格党的党魁 If Charles Wood is offered high office in the new Whig administration,
他们都说很有可能 which they seem to think he will be,
那就要进行补选了 it'll trigger a by-election.
又要选 哦... Another election? Oh...
大家都说洛森先生要自己出来选 And people are saying Mr Rawson himself will stand this time.
洛森先生 Mr Rawson?
克里斯多佛·洛森 - 他真是气坏啦 - Mr Christopher Rawson? - So vexed was he
前几周竟然在自家土地上被攻击 by the attack on his property a few short weeks ago.
这样好吗 Is that a good idea?
亨利·爱德华先生 Would not Mr Henry Edwards
应该更适合代表哈利法克斯竞选吧 be a better choice of candidate for Halifax?
亨利·爱德华先生 Mr Henry Edwards?
我很怀疑他有那个财力和胆识 I doubt he has either the money or the stomach for it.
我认为亨利·爱德华先生可能会让我们很惊讶 I think Mr Henry Edwards might surprise us all,
只要给他机会 对吧 婶婶 given the chance. Hmm, Aunt?
您不支持洛森先生吗 李斯特小姐 Would you not support Mr Rawson, Miss Lister,
您的影响力很大 with your great influence?
Yes.
当然支持 毫不犹豫地支持 Without doubt, without question.
若他代表托利党参选 If he was the chosen Tory candidate
我能影响几千票 and I had influence over 1,000 votes,
每一票都会投给他 then he should have every one of them.
我只是在想这个男人... I just question whether a man who has...
惹怒过许多哈利法克斯的名门望族 ...offended members of some of the oldest families in Halifax
他能够在这种艰困的时刻 is best placed to unite the Tory vote in a way
团结托利党吗 that's necessary in such difficult times.
他有吗 Has he? Has he?
而亨利·爱德华先生 - 洛森先生确实 - Whereas Mr Henry Edwards... - Mm. Well, Mr Rawson is...
他有点... He can be, erm...
招人嫌 ...abrasive.
李斯特小姐有空吗 Is Miss Lister...?
楼下有一位威廉·齐斯利先生 There's a Mr William Keighley downstairs, ma'am.
他说辛斯克利夫先生请他来 He says Mr Hinscliffe sent him to...
讨论史塔普斯庄园的史匹克矿坑 Something about Staups... Spiggs colliery.
也许约伯医生在看诊时 Perhaps, Dr Jubb, when you do your rounds,
能巧妙地问那些有疑虑的人 you could intimate to anyone who's concerned
是否认为亨利·爱德华之类的人 that others, such as Mr Henry Edwards,
更适合领导大家 might be better placed to lead the way
团结蓝党的票 and unite the Blue vote.
不需要提怎么会有这种想法 No need to say from whence the thought sprang.
婶婶和我可不想被人误会 My aunt and I would hate to be thought of
以为我们在干预政治 as intermeddlers in anything political.
齐斯利先生 Mr Keighley.
李斯特小姐 Miss Lister.
Come through.
这些是建引水道 So, it's a record of all the expenses I've had
到威尔·罗伊·贺姆斯的所有花费 driving the drift through Well Royd Holmes.
总共是507英镑16先令5便士 Total's ￡507 16 shillings and fivepence,
你应该了解我会花这笔钱 which you'll appreciate I'd not have spent
是因为先前和你叔叔协议 had I not had this agreement with your uncle
能开采史匹克的煤矿 over the Spiggs coal in the first place.
你看后面这边 Now, if you look in the back...
这是一份备忘录 ...you'll see there's a memorandum.
一百英镑 由我付给你叔叔詹姆士 ￡100. Paid by me, to your Uncle James,
换取开采煤矿的权利 to get all the coal in Spiggs land.
问题是我叔叔的账目里 But the fact is, there's no record
没有任何关于这些的纪录 to corroborate any of this in my uncle's accounts.
我不知道那是怎么回事 Well, I know nowt about that.
我只知道我老实付了很多钱 I just know I've spent a lot of money in good faith.
为什么这份备忘录在后面 Why is this memorandum at the back
而不是按照目录 and not in the correct chronology
放在档案的前面 with the earlier parts of the accounts?
我就是这样放的 It... It's j... It's just the way I did it.
我知道这些上了法庭不做数 I know it wouldn't stand up in a court of law,
你明白的 but, you know,
但我们别把事情闹大 let's hope it doesn't go that far.
这是唯一一份双方同意的文件 It's just the only record I've got of what we agreed.
问题是我这边的角度 The problem, from my point of view,
我希望能做到公平公正 and I only ever wish to do that which is fair,
我刚花了一大笔钱买下史塔普斯庄园 I've just bought Staups for a significant sum,
我希望投资能有回报 and I need some return on my investment.
若你去开采史匹克的煤矿 If you try and get Spiggs coal,
我会把矿坑淹掉 I will flood the pit to prevent access
到约克的法院告你 and try the matter at York.
我很抱歉 但就是这样了 I'm sorry, but there it is.
我叔叔这边不只没有纪录 Not only did my uncle make no record of it,
当时他也从未跟我提过这些 but he never mentioned anything of the matter to me
这些问题先前也从未浮现过 at the time, and nothing of this arose
史塔普斯庄园的买卖 in the last however many months it's taken
进行了好几个月 to complete the purchase of Staups,
不管怎么找都没有 所以... with the searches and so forth, so...
你知道淹掉史匹克 You do know, if you flood Spiggs,
也会淹掉你自己的小矿井吧 you'll flood your little pit up here.
不一定 Not necessarily.
一定会 Almost certainly you would.
这件事情有不同看法 There seems to be some difference of opinion on that.
谁告诉你不会的 Who's told you otherwise?
辛斯克利夫 Hinscliffe?
他会说这种话 Well, he would say that.
他会说反话 开开心心地看着它淹水 He would say the opposite and then happily watch it flood.
你知道为什么吗 And do you know why?
因为他偷的炭比洛森还多 Because he's had more of your coal than the Rawsons have.
早安 小姐 Morning, ma'am.
辛斯克利夫先生今天来过吗 Has Mr Hinscliffe been up to see you today?
他早上来了一会儿 He popped up this morning.
你和兄弟们应该认为我很傻吧 I suppose you and your brothers think I'm foolish
居然相信他而不信霍特 to trust him above Holt?
谁能说得准 Who's to say?
我没有完全信任他 I don't necessarily trust him.
我只是需要他提供的资讯 I'm just using him to get some information from him.
若要禁止别人采史匹克的散矿 If I was to stop the loose at Spiggs,
会对这个矿井有什么影响 how would it affect this pit,
以你来看 in your opinion?
会不会把这里淹掉 Would it flood it, or would it not flood it?
罗伯特会知道 Well, our Robert would have an opinion.
他很了解史匹克 He'd certainly know about Spiggs.
他在这附近所有矿坑都做过工 He's worked all the mines round here.
罗伯特在哪里 Where is Robert?
- 他在挖井 - 啊 - He's...digging. - Ah.
所以没错吧 辛斯克利夫先生说 Is it right, then, what Mr Hinscliffe said?
你想把离庄园近一点的矿井淹掉 You're thinking of sinking another pit further down, nearer the Hall?
我希望您考虑让我们动手 Only I hope you'd consider us, ma'am,
若您真要这么做 to sink it, if you did.
看价钱合不合理 For the right price.
计划是什么 What's the plan, then?
计划... The plan...
是要淹掉一个矿井 ...would be to sink this other pit somewhere,
离史顿庄园五六十码外 50 or 60 yards Shibden Hall side
靠近沃克矿井那边 把两个引水道引到那边 of Walker pit, and drive two drifts up to it
从低处往上引流 from such a place in the lower land
我会建一个水车提供矿井动力 as I could build a waterwheel to power a pit engine.
和罗伯特谈谈 Speak to Robert.
若他觉得自己派得上用场 Tell him to come and see me
就让他来见我 if he thinks he can be useful, hmm?
安妮 Anne!
你在这里呀 Ah. There you are.
我在我们家族的文件发现一件事情 I've found something in my family papers.
其实是两件事情 一件事情我知道 Well, two things, actually. One I half-knew,
但忘记了 另一件是我完全不知道 but I'd half-forgotten, and the other, I had no idea.
- 什么事 - 就是 - What? - Well,
就是我发现... it would appear that, erm...
- 什么事 - 就是 - What? - Well, erm,
1831年时我姐姐用合法途径 that in 1831, my sister, legally,
像是租借和二次租借 还有一些买卖契约 through lease and re-lease and some sort of deed of sale,
把所有房产都过给桑德兰上尉 conveyed all of her property onto Captain Sutherland.
全都过户了 她的每一分房产 All of it. Everything. All her share of the estate.
这直接抵触... And that's contrary, directly contrary,
我们父亲的条款 他的遗嘱条款 to a provision set out by my father in his will,
让我们不用将财产交给丈夫 which protects us both from having to submit our fortunes to any husbands.
是吗 Does it?
她为什么要这么做 I mean, why would she do that?
她为什么要放弃这些保护 Why would she give up that protection?
又为何不跟我说她做了这些事 And why would she not tell me that's what she was doing?
等等 你们父亲... So... Hang on, so, your father...
我父亲在遗嘱设立条款 So, my father made provision in his will,
表示我哥哥过世后 in the event of my brother's death,
我和伊莉莎白将共同继承所有财产 for me and Elizabeth to jointly inherit everything.
但我相信他还有一条 But he also made what I was always given
不可撼动的条款 to believe was an unshakeable clause,
和一般的做法都不一样 contrary to the normal way of doing things,
说即使我们结婚 that stated that, should we ever get married,
我们也必须保有我们的房产 但是... we must, and would, retain ownership in our own share of the estate, but...
他这么做真有意思 That was interesting of him to do that.
是的 但1831年时... Yes, but in 1831...
碰到安兹华斯那时 他都没有提过这件事 He never mentioned this when Ainsworth was sniffing about.
是的 Yes. No. Exactly.
这正是为了吓阻像他这样争产的人 He did it to deter fortune-hunters like him.
但是1831年 But then, in 1831,
他们结婚三年后 three years after they were married,
她就把所有财产都交给他 都给了桑德兰上尉 she submitted everything to him, to Captain Sutherland.
安妮 我... And, Anne, I...
我真难想像她会是自愿的 I can't believe she would have done that willingly.
他一定对她连哄带骗 He must've bullied and cajoled
强迫她签字 and coerced her into signing away her half
把她那份家产给他 of the family's...everything,
明知这样违背父亲的遗嘱 knowing that it's contrary to what my father intended.
安妮 她绝对不会伤害我 Anne, she'd never hurt me.
我很少敢如此 There are few things in this world
大言不惭地叙述一个事实 I have the confidence to state so boldly,
但有件事我很确定 but one thing I know for sure
就是伊莉莎白不可能存心 is that Elizabeth would never willingly cheat me
背着我把我们的财产交出去 但她为了他做这种事 out of what's ours, but she has, because of him.
她怎么背着你了 Cheated you how?
她的一部分房产在她死后 Some of it's property that, on her death,
会归还庄园所有 回到我手上 would have reverted to the estate, to me.
他们怎么知道我不会生孩子 They don't know that I might not still have children.
他肯定找到法律漏洞 蔑视这些规定 He's found a legal loophole to make a mockery of it all
把财产偷走 and to...well, to steal it.
另一件事是什么 What was the other thing?
约翰...我哥哥约翰 以前常抱怨 So, John, my John, always used to complain
普莱斯特利兄弟 that Mr Priestley and his brother John
故意使计谋让我叔叔喜欢他们 had worked their way into my uncle's affections
最后在遗嘱留了遗产给他们 till he ended up leaving them things in his will
但那些原先应该由我父亲继承 that should've remained entailed to my father.
我以前都觉得这不关我的事 I never thought of it as my business,
但你看 白纸黑字写的 but here it is, in black and white.
他们拿了我们三间房产 They have had three properties from us.
很值钱的房产 Substantial properties.
黑城堡 Blackcastle, which is
这是萨德兰高地的土地 an allotment to High Sunderland,
哈利法克斯的尽地庄园 还有诺尔兰的 Hall End in Halifax. And Longley Farm
孤独农场 over in Norland.
我叔叔无权把这些给别人 My uncle had no right to give them away,
想到普莱斯特利一家 and it galls me even more
有多反对我们 我就更生气 since the Priestleys have been so objectionable to us.
这是帕克起草的 Parker drew this up.
但桑德兰上尉和他太太的事 But who did the legal work on this other business
是谁经手的法律文件 with Captain and Mrs Sutherland?
Erm...
帕克和亚当 我不喜欢帕克 Parker and Adam. I've never liked Parker.
我真不懂你为什么这么信任他 I don't know why you put so much faith in him.
也许这是可以恢复的 Maybe it's not irreversible.
我们这两件事都去和约克的格瑞先生谈 Let's go and consult Mr Gray in York on both matters.
你觉得我们家族 Do you think my family have any clue
知道桑德兰上尉做了这些事吗 about what Captain Sutherland's done?
当然知道 我们全都知道 Of course we knew. We all knew.
只有我不知道 All but me!
你当时状况不太好 我们就瞒着你了 Oh, well, you weren't well. We kept it from you.
你的所有亲戚都知道 All your cousins and uncles and aunts knew.
就是因为这样 And it's precisely
我们才会这么积极 because of it that we've been so zealous in trying to protect
想要保护你和你的财产 you and your fortune.
伊莉莎白怎么可能... But, no, Elizabeth wouldn't have...
她一点都没有迟疑 Elizabeth did it without scruple!
我不相信... I don't believe for a second...
她被他控制了 He ran rings around her.
叫她做什么都愿意 She'd have done anything he asked.
一点儿理智都没有了 Sense was out of the window.
她现在可能后悔了 但也来不及啦 She might well regret it now, now it's too late.
那个软弱讨人厌的罗柏帕克 And that weak, odious Robert Parker...
他本应该替我们家族服务 He was meant to be acting for the family,
但是 but, no, no...
他也被桑德兰控制了 No, Sutherland ran rings round him too.
我都快决定要更改遗嘱了 I'm half-minded to change my will.
我以为你已经改了 I thought you already had.
没有 什么时候 No. When? No.
你去年把遗产执行人改成李斯特小姐 You made Miss Lister your executor
把表亲普莱斯特利除名了 instead of your cousin, Mr Priestley, last year.
谁告诉你的 Who told you that?
她自己说的 She did.
去年春天 Last spring.
你当时失踪了 When you went missing,
你自己跑去约克 when you absented yourself in York.
她常跑来这里卖弄法律 She used to come over here, laying the law down...
我指定她当遗嘱执行人 没错 I made her my executor, yes,
但是遗嘱内容并没有变 but the contents remain unchanged.
我不可能在知会您以前改遗嘱 I certainly wouldn't change it without telling you,
不管其他人怎么反应 even if others have behaved as they have.
怎么了 What? What's the matter?
我... I...
哦 Oh.
姑姑 Aunt?
我... I, erm...
听大家在讨论 Well, I had imagined,
你们正式分割房产的事 with all this talk of a formal division of the estate,
我以为你的遗嘱已经改好了 that you had already changed the will itself.
怎么会 没有呀 How? No.
改由李斯特小姐受益 In Miss Lister's favour.
这是... Well, that's...
有这个可能性 ...a possibility.
若我终生没有子嗣 And, yes, if I never have children,
李斯特小姐和我又持续 and if Miss Lister and I were to continue
互相陪伴 那么 as such kind companions, well,
我确实打算为彼此设立一些条款 yes, I hope we would think to make some provision for one another,
但就目前情况而言 but as things stand,
现在还是归伊莉莎白 no, it still all goes to Elizabeth
然后归萨柯维尔 and then to Sackville.
这样啊 Well...
我改了我的遗嘱 ...I changed mine
当你搬进史顿庄园后 when you moved into Shibden Hall.
我就把你移除 将遗产留给了伊莉莎白 I removed you from it - in Elizabeth's favour.
今早有你的信送来 There was a letter for you this morning.
在邮袋里 In the postbag.
华盛顿寄来的 From Washington.
在哪里 Where is it?
哦 你想看吗 Oh, do you want to see it?
我不知道 有意思吗 I don't know. Is it interesting?
你要求执行的财产扣押都执行完毕了 The distresses you requested have all been carried out.
我什么都没有要求 I didn't request anything.
一位葛利福太太来史顿庄园 A Mrs Greaves went to Shibden Hall begging
哀求别驱离她 但显然 not to be evicted, but, apparently,
你妹妹不听 your sister wouldn't hear of it.
她决心要执行... She was determined to carry out the, er...
你... 我们 ...your...our...
信上的所有要求 ...request to the very letter.
这时候驱赶居民太残忍了 What a cruel time of year to evict people.
没错 我同意 Well, yes, I agree.
但她要分割财产 But if she wants a division of the estate,
账就得明着算 things must be put in order.
华盛顿告诉我 Washington tells me
他给了安一份建议表 he's submitted a proposal to her - to Ann -
内容是对不同房产 for what he believes to be a fair division
进行划分的建议 of the various lots of the estate,
有部分是看毗连性 based partly on contiguity
一部分由价值评估 and partly on value.
我们就看她寄什么给我们 So we shall see what she sends us
等她看完所有建议 when she's gone through it.
虽然我很想... Although, I'm tempted...
- 哦 我不懂 - 什么 - Oh, I don't know. - What?
我还是不懂这件事的急迫性 I still don't know why there's this great urgency for the thing.
她的前几封信里有一种... There's something in her last few letters.
一种... This...
好辩的语气 ...litigious tone.
突然充满自信 She's suddenly become so confident,
学识渊博 so well informed.
我在想你要不要写封信给她 I'm wondering whether you shouldn't write to her
跟她说原则上... and say that, whilst in principle
我们...你很乐见财产分割 we...you're happy with the division,
说你觉得若我们 you think it might be better to wait
能先去拜访她们再进行更好 until we can visit them.
等天气适合出远门 When the weather's better for travelling.
那很好 That would be...
我觉得这样很好 Yes, I'd like that.
很好 很好 Good. Good!
我觉得签名前 I think, before we sign off on the thing,
我们应该先确定 we should satisfy ourselves
你的家人没有什么阴谋 there's nothing nefarious going on with your family.
当然我总说 Although, as I say,
我相信李斯特小姐会保护她 I always imagined Miss Lister would protect her
不受到伤害 - from any nonsense. - Mm.
这个女人真特别 Yes, curious woman...
李斯特小姐 ...Miss Lister.
Well, I'm delighted
Miss Walker's gone to see her aunt.
Not that I dislike her, not for a moment.
I'm thrilled for her.
I'm just jealous that she has you to gaze at all day.
When I'm in.
三个月内拜访我两次 This is the second time in three months.
你想做什么 What are you after?
我只想盯着您看 Only to gaze upon you.
我想告诉您我的北门之家进度如何了 I was telling you about my planned developments at Northgate House.
是啊 Oh, yes.
你叔叔约瑟夫肯定会很生气 Your Uncle Joseph would be livid!
是的 Yes.
是啊 但有时候世界变化之快 Yes, but the world moves forward,
我们必须随着时代进步 and sometimes we have to move with it.
洛森太太 您也认为这项企划 And don't you agree, Mrs Rawson,
能替镇上带来繁荣兴盛吧 that this whole enterprise could be a huge boon for the town?
当然 Oh, yes, yes.
这个城镇每一周都在成长 Well, the town gets bigger by the week.
没错 Precisely.
这里能够自成一区 And this could create a whole new enclave.
我也不是傻子 And I'm not such a noodle
将巨额收入拒之门外 as to refuse what would pay such good returns.
一个全新的季度 A whole new quarter.
只希望别有人阻挡我 As long as no-one were to obstruct me
申请赌场 旅店 饭店的执照 in getting a licence for my casino. Inn. Hotel.
哦 Oh,
你是为了这个来的 is that what you're after?
借用我的影响力 My influence.
我倒是希望不用麻烦您 Well, I would hope I wouldn't need it.
如我刚才所说 我希望 As I say, I would hope that such a venture
事情能顺利进行 would be eloquent of its own merits.
但当然了 您的金玉良言 But, certainly, one word from you
选对了人说 in the right ear,
就会胜过旁人的千言万语 would be worth 1,000 from anybody else...
洛森先生来访 Mr Rawson...
洛森老太太 ...Mrs Rawson.
母亲 Mother!
-你好 - 洛森先生 - Oh, hello. - Mr Rawson.
克里斯多佛 Christopher, is it true
李斯特小姐说的是真的吗 what Miss Lister tells me, that you're standing
- 你要选议员 - 您听说啦 - for Parliament? - Oh, you've heard!
这样好吗 Is it wise?
当然 我已经毛遂自荐了 希望下次委员会议 Yes, I've put my name forward and expect to be adopted
会被提议 at the next committee meeting.
你太一心多用了 You have too many trades.
- 谁说的 - 是我说的 - Who said that? - Me. I said it.
你不用瞪李斯特小姐 No point in looking at Miss Lister.
你爸爸以前也经常这么说 And it's what your father used to say too.
真可惜 What a shame
您不能参选 李斯特小姐 you can't stand for Parliament, Miss Lister.
你这么聪明 With your superior intellect
圆滑的交际手腕 又如此有说服力 and your powers of diplomacy and persuasion,
你会比其他人强得多了 you would've stood head and shoulders above anyone else!
天啊 这么晚了 Good Lord, look at the time.
她该领导这个国家 She should be running the country.
是啊 太可惜了 Yes, what a shame.
你不会要走了吧 Oh, she's not leaving.
我很遗憾 I was very sorry,
洛森先生 我听到霍普大宅发生的小混乱 Mr Rawson, to hear about the mindless vandalism at Hope Hall.
是的 Yes, well...
我也保证 如同我和约伯医生说的 And to assure you, as I told Dr Jubb,
若你要代表托利党参选 that, if you are to be Tory candidate for the town
我有一千多票的影响力 and I had influence over 1,000 votes,
保证每一票都投给你 you would have every one of them.
（法语）再见 Au revoir.
（法语）改天见 à bient?t.
洛森先生 Mr Rawson.
李斯特小姐 Miss Lister.
哦 Ohh...
你从不适合穿那个颜色 That colour's never suited you.
亲爱的弗雷迪 Dearest Freddy...
这种感觉很新奇 It is something new to feel that I write
知道这封信会有两双眼睛 而不是一双眼睛看过 for two sets of eyes instead of one.
现在我的心情平复许多 Now that my mind is more at ease,
我希望自己能恢复健康 I hope to get into better health.
也许是你 也许是药物起了作用 Either you or the medicines have done me good.
又或者如你常说的 And as you have often said,
了解最糟的情况就是 knowing the worst is often the best means
与自己和解的最好方法 of reconciling ourselves to it.
无论前方风霜 Come what may,
不管与我的本意相去多远 however at variance with my wishes,
有一点 there is one subject left
我绝不会让你失望 in which I will never disappoint you.
我必定... I will always...
尽一切所能
我曾违背本心只为取悦家人 I once wronged my own heart to please my family,
但这么做是错的 but this was not doing right,
看我付出的代价 and dearly I have paid for it.
现在情况有了改变 But the scale is now turned.
我将一心专注在得到你的赞美 My thoughts are now set upon deserving your good opinion to the last,
也将不再让你有机会找到我的错处 and I will not put it in your power to find fault with me again.
Hmm.
沃克小姐呢 Where's Miss Walker?
Hmm?
她不舒服 Oh, she's not well.
又不舒服 Again?
都是她姑姑乱说话 It's this nonsense with her aunt.
每次她去拜访 Every time she goes over there,
她总要说些不中听或不必要的话 she says something cruel and unnecessary.
总会让她难过一阵子 It always knocks her for six.
真遗憾 Oh, I'm sorry.
当你要提到你的"小朋友" When you speak of your "little friend",
用全名称呼她吧 write her name in full.
我不喜欢那个小名 I dislike the initial.
顺着我吧 用你写下的名字 Indulge my fancy and let the name you write
称呼她 be the one you call her by.
告诉我 弗雷迪 And tell me, Freddy...
那是洛顿太太的笔迹吗 Is that Mrs Lawton's handwriting?
没错 It is, yes.
- 告诉我 弗雷迪 - 有什么新鲜事吗 - Tell me, Freddy... - Has she got anything fresh?
我们来看看吧 Well, let's see, shall we?
告诉我 弗雷迪 你看过约克的报纸了吗 Tell me, Freddy, do you see the York papers?
你知道... And do you know
里面有一段 anything of a paragraph that appeared in one
写到你和沃克小姐吗 respecting yourself and Miss Walker?
我真想知道写了些什么 I long to know what it was.
告诉我 你听过 Tell me if you've heard...
失陪了 If you'll excuse me,
我要拿沃克小姐的信和茶上去 I'm going to take Miss Walker her letters and some tea.
哦 安妮 Oh, Anne...
阿伯特先生今晚就要到了 Mr Abbott's due this evening.
像往常一样 只是提醒你一下 As usual. Just to remind you.
只是让你知道 Just so you know to...
不要挡道 ...stay out of the way.
她又要拖延分割房产的事 She wants to defer the division of the estate again
说要"等适合出远门的天气" "until we can travel more comfortably".
这是他的语气 This is him.
他会一直拖延 拖到取消为止 He'll put it off and put it off until it doesn't happen.
这又是谁写的 Who's this one from?
还是我们请格瑞先生写信给他 Perhaps we should instruct Mr Gray to write to him
不用写给你姐姐了 rather than her in future,
也不用假装作乱的是她了 stop the pretence that it's her who's being difficult, hmm?
安 Ann?
这是什么 What is it?
"亲爱的沃克小姐" "Dear Miss Walker."
"我担心你收不到这封信" "I fear this may not reach you,"
"若你收到了 希望你别把信" "but if it does, I urge you, under no circumstances,"
"给李斯特小姐看" "to show it to Miss Lister."
不妙 Bad luck.
"无论你将这个女人当作多重要的朋友" "However much you may believe this woman to be your friend,"
"我跟你保证 她不是朋友" "I tell you plainly she is not."
你认得这个笔迹吗 Do you recognise the hand?
不认得 No.
"难道你没发现这个女人难以启齿的名声" "Are you really unaware of the unspeakable reputation this woman has?"
"她已经离间了你和家人朋友" "I see that she has already cut you off from your family"
"虽然你还不明白" "and friends, and though you may not understand it,"
"但请相信我" "please believe me when I tell you"
"你身处极度危险的处境" "that you are in the gravest danger."
天啊 Ooh-là-là!
"她会欺骗你 等你回过神来" "She will beguile you, and before you know it,"
"你的一切都会被她骗走 - " "she will have tricked you out of all you have -"
"你的名声" "your reputation,"
"财富 内心的平静" "your wealth, your peace of mind."
"问她伊莱莎·瑞恩的事" "Ask her to tell you about Eliza Raine."

我这辈子碰到太多这种事了 Things like this. All my life.
谁是伊莱莎·瑞恩 Who's Eliza Raine?
我来告诉你有关... I'll tell you about...
伊莱莎·瑞恩的事情 ...Eliza Raine.
是另一个洛顿太太 还是另一个蒂比 Is she another Mrs Lawton? Or another Tib?
我们一起在约克上学 才十三岁 We were at school together. In York. 13-year-olds.
然后... And then...
...她长大后... ...when she was older...
...可能有点问题 不是那种... ...she had problems, properly, not like...
她过去二十几年 She's been in an asylum in York
都在约克的疯人院里 for the last 20-odd years.
念在过去的情谊 And I visit her,
我有时会去探望她 occasionally, for old times' sake,
但她很暴力 but she's violent and she...
她会吐口水 骂脏话 她多次攻击过... She spits and swears and she's attacked me
我和其他人 more than once, and others.
她永远无法独立生活 她就是这样 She could never live independently, the way she is.
所以 寄这封信的人知道她吗 So, the person who sent this knows about her?
伊丽莎过去常来哈利法克斯 和我们一起住... Eliza used to come and stay with us in Halifax...
...度过一夏天 ...over the summer.
她的父母在印度 所以她没办法回家 Her parents were in India, so she couldn't go home.
所以 在哈利法克斯的任何人都可能记得她 So it could be anyone in Halifax that remembers her.
她... She's...
她看起来非常引人注目 她是半个印度人 She was very striking to look at. She's half Indian.
你当时爱她吗 Were you in love with her?
我当时的确爱她 I loved her, yes.
我是说爱上她 In love.
这种信就是来挑拨 让我们难过 This has been sent to cause division and upset.
你会被挑拨吗 Will you let it?
她也爱你吗 Was she in love with you?
我们当时很年轻 We were very young!
信上粗糙地暗示 And the tawdry implication here
我把她害成那样 is that she ended up the way she did because of me.
根本就是胡说八道 It's just...it's just nonsense.
我尽一切努力帮助她 I did everything I could to help her.
把信烧了 Burn it.
请你起来换衣服 Please get up and get dressed,
为了我 for my sake,
也为了你自己 for your own sake.
我们不能屈服于这些人 We can't give in to these people.
我们必须比他们好 We must be better than them.
是来讨论矿井的那些人 That'll be the men about the pit. I...
我该走了 I've got to go.
罗伯特同意霍特先生的说法 Robert agrees with Mr Holt, ma'am.
他认为您该先挖完沃克矿井 He thinks you should bottom Walker pit
再把史匹克淹掉 before you flood Spiggs.
至于离这里五六十码的矿井 And as regards another pit 50, 60 yards this way,
我认为非常值得 I'd say it were a very good thing, ma'am,
若您要花钱在这上面 if you're willing to spend the money.
你好 给你的 Here. You dropped your...
这样史顿庄园靠旁普这一侧 Because then you could loose a whole sweep of coal
就有一大片煤能开采 lying on the Shibden Hall side o' Pump,
以及康尼瑞房底下 and upwards in a line parallel
与原有水源平行以上的区域 to the present old waterhead hold under Conery houses.
你会把新矿坑的哪里淹掉 Where would you sink this new pit?
若您要把水车建在 Well, if you're putting the waterwheel
泰里昂牧场 down at Tillyholme stile,
例如... 这里吧 旁普 跟您建议的一样 I'd say here, at Pump, where you suggested.
就能在这边引两条水道上去 And then if we drove two heads up from Tillyholme stile,
- 是想这样做吧 - 是的 - that's the idea? - Yeah.
这样很容易进行 Which we could do easily enough
只要建个风口在多特这一角 if we made a vent hole in the corner of Dolt.
然后是旁普的这个矿井 Then this pit at Pump, you'd have it working
一旦挖好矿井就能马上启动 just as soon as it were bottomed,
还能当作沃克矿井的风口 and it'd serve as a vent to Walker pit.
这样威克菲尔路以北的 This way, all the coal above the Wakefield Road
两个矿井都能从沃克矿井出来 and between the two pits could be pulled at Walker pit,
威克菲尔路以南的煤矿 and all the coal below Wakefield Road
能从旁普的新矿井运出来 could be pulled at this new pit at Pump.
您在这里会有煤矿的屏障 And then you'd be left with a good barrier of coal
从这边一直到这里 all along this side up here.
这样子只要第二个井挖好 So in fact you could stop Spiggs colliery
您随时都能放掉史匹克煤矿 any time you liked after this second one's sunk,
把它们用水灌满 and let all that face of coal stand covered in water,
随时要倒到洛森先生的矿井都行 ready to throw it on Mr Rawson's works any time you wanted,
若不是他捞过界 which, if he hadn't have trespassed,
您也没办法这样做 you would never have been able to do, so...
这样也能证明他盗采煤矿 It'd be a way of proving his trespass too.
或任何人盗采 And anyone else's.
什么鬼
他们说要花多少时间盖好 How long do they say it'll take to construct it?
挖好引水道和矿井 - 八个月 To dig the drifts and sink the pit - eight months.
那边是水坝... As to the dam...
若要做水坝 你得通知卡尔 You'd have to give Carr notice to quit the Well Royd land
别处理威尔罗伊的地 if you're going to turn it into a dam.
他的租约八个月后到期 所以... His tenancy's up in eight months, so...
我计算过了 为了让... I've calculated that, for the volume of water needed
直径十八尺的水车运转 to turn an 18ft-diameter waterwheel,
水坝要在两英亩的地上填满四尺深 the dam needs to be four feet deep across two acres,
这个算下来 加上水坝蓄水 so with that and the dam goit,
我们十二个月内能开始运作 we could be up and running in 12 months.
你认识有经纬仪的人吗 Do you know anyone with a theodolite?
普莱斯特利先生 Mr Priestley.
李斯特小姐 Miss Lister.
你从史顿庄园出来吗 Were you at the Hall?
是的 我... Yes, I...
我去拜访令尊 Yes, I went to see your father.
还有令妹 And your sister.
还有我的表妹 但她不在 And my cousin, but she wasn't in.
她到哈德斯菲尔德 拜访表亲凯萨琳了 No, she's in Huddersfield, visiting her cousin Catherine.
是的 Yes.
你错过她了 - 没错 - So you've missed her. - Yes.
你错过她 又遇到我了 Well, then, you've missed her and you've caught me.
大概不在您的计划内吧 That probably wasn't the plan at all, hmm?
计划 Plan?
我只是希望她会有兴趣 I was hoping she might like to make a subscription
参加牧师发起的寡妇基金 to the clergyman's widow's fund.
也是不无可能嘛 It's not beyond the realms of possibility.
那就这样了 Well, then.
你下次再来碰碰运气吧 You'll have to try again another time.
李斯特小姐 Miss Lister.
普莱斯特利先生 Mr Priestley.
我亲爱的玛丽 My dear Mary.
我暂时没有 I can't at the moment turn to the item
你说的报纸 from the newspaper that you refer to,
只能改日再寄 and so I must send it another time,
但是该公告大概是这样的 but the announcement was, in substance,
"恭喜史顿庄园的汤姆·李斯顿上尉" "The marriage of Captain Tom Lister of Shibden Hall"
"与鸦巢庄园的安·沃克小姐结为连理" "and Miss Ann Walker, late of Crow Nest."
发现这些荒谬文章后 On discovery of the hoax,
其中一家报社编辑 a handsome volunteer apology was sent
真诚地主动道歉 by the editor of one of the papers,
这件事也就到此为止 and here the matter ended,
没有人觉得不高兴 for nobody was annoyed
也无人在意 and nobody cared about it.
- 小姐 - 好 谢谢 - Ma'am? - Yes, thank you.
谢谢你 瑞秋 Thank you, Rachel.
谢谢你 海明威 Thank you, Hemingway.
我们该打包明天的行李了 We should start packing for tomorrow.
我订了九点的马车 I ordered the horses for nine.
应该一点就会到约克 We should be in York by one.
我信不过这位布莱德利先生 I'm not sure about this Mr Bradley.
我怀疑他的能力能否跟上他的野心 I'm not convinced his intellect matches his ambition.
要倒茶吗 Shall I do the duty?
我之前没告诉你 因为... I didn't tell you this because...
我也不知道 I don't know.
前几天你去拜访凯萨琳时 When you went to see Catherine the other day,
普莱斯特利先生来访了 and Mr Priestley called,
他的神色慌张 he was flustered and,
我也不确定 I don't know,
我怀疑信可能是他写的 I wondered whether it was him who wrote that letter -
或是他太太 或是两人共谋 or her, or both of them -
他想来看看造成什么影响 and he was calling to see what effect it'd had.
我不在乎是谁寄的 I don't care who sent it.
都不重要 It's irrelevant.
不用再提起了 I don't think we should mention it again.
我跟凯萨琳说了伊莉莎白做的事 I told Catherine about what Elizabeth had done.
她知道吗 Did she know?
不知道 她若知道应该会告诉我 No. I think she'd have told me if she did.
我们会解决这件事情的 We will sort this out.
我只是有点悲伤 It just saddens me.
什么事 What does?
想到这些事情 Thinking about what it's all for.
还有... And...
若没有孩子... ...without children...
...我真不知道这是为了什么 ...I'm not sure what it is all for.
这是不是... And is it not...
是什么 Not?
上帝旨示... ...God's purpose that we...
要...我们...生儿育女 ...people...have children?
我只可惜最后都会留给他们 I just regret that it will all go to them,
最终都会归萨柯维尔 ultimately, to Sackville.
之前...我没有想过这些 但... I never did before...before this, but...
...我不禁一直在想这些事 ...it's just made me dwell on it all,
我好像一直都想像着... and I suppose I had always imagined that...
...有一天... ...one day...
...我会有... ...I would have...
...自己的孩子 如此而已 ...children of my own, that's all.
你曾告诉我 说你觉得有点恶心... You once told me you felt a kind of repugnance...
...想到要和异性有接触就不舒服 ...to forming any sort of connection with the opposite sex.
这不一样 It's not the same thing.
不一样吗 Isn't it?
你想像过有小孩 You mean, you'd imagined children,
但没有和某个男人结婚 but not marriage... to a man?
我也不知道 是吧 I don't know. Yes.
不知为何... Somehow, I...
...我想像过... ...had imagined being...
...当母亲 ...a mother,
但没有想过和男人在一起 but not being, you know, with a man.
所以你还没有完全放弃生孩子的希望 So you haven't given up all thought of ever having children?
这不重要了吧 我和你在一起了 It's not... It doesn't signify, does it? I'm with you.
当然重要 It does signify.
因为我需要确定 Because I need to have the confidence
我们之间的关系是确定的 that this thing between us is truly settled,
我不是在你碰到男人前 and I'm not just keeping you warm
给你温暖的人 until some man comes along.
我也跟玛莉安说过一样的话 It's much the same as I told Marian
关于阿伯特先生的事 over Mr Abbott - you'll not find me
我绝不会阻止你追求你的渴望 any obstacle to something you have very much at heart.
别这么说 Don't say that.
若你想要 我也能当你生命中的彗星 Because I can be as a meteor in your life, if that's what you'd like,
一颗你能想像得到最璀璨的彗星 a meteor that burns more brightly than anything you could ever imagine,
一闪而逝 and then is gone.
永远消失 For ever!
我这辈子一直碰到一样的事 Things like this. All my life!
我假装不会难过了 但没有用 I pretend it gets easier, but it doesn't.
- 安妮 - 我们这么做是为了自己 - Anne... - We do things for us.
都是为了我们 That's who it's for.
这样我们才能一起生活 我们才是最重要的 So that we can have a life together. We matter.
生孩子不是唯一让人努力 Having children isn't the only reason
精进自己 to strive and do well
追求幸福的动力 and better oneself and be happy.
对不起 I'm sorry.
这确实... 我以前就说过 It is, I've said it before,
我们不能有孩子是很可惜的事 a great sadness that we can never have children.
如果你不够坚定 But if you're not certain
若你未来不想过这样的生活... it isn't something you'll want in the future, then...
现在就要让我知道 ...I need to know about that now.
因为我永远无法给你孩子 Because it's something that I can never give you.
就像我们永远无法 Just as we can never have
有一张正式的结婚证书 a piece of paper that says we have any kind of legal union to bind us,
我们也永远不会有像孩子那样的羁绊 neither can we have the bond a child would give us.
我们必须非常确定 So we have to be certain...
你吓到我了 You're frightening me.
- 我吓到你 - 我很抱歉 - I'm frightening you? - I'm sorry.
你得下定决心 You have to be certain...
在我们去约克之前 ...before we set off for York,
在我们修改遗嘱之前 before we think any further about changing our wills,
确定与我在一起是你想要的 that this, here, with me, is what you want.
我想和你在一起 比全世界任何事情都重要 I want to be with you more than anything in the whole world.
你是知道的 You know that!
但是... Nevertheless...
...这仍是很大的牺牲 ...it is a great sacrifice,
若你不确定自己能做到 and if you're not sure it's one you can make,
那就这样吧 well, then...
我去收拾去约克的行李 I'm going to start packing for York.
