第13章 规划马格韦契的未来和听他讲述自己的身世

I slept a little，but woke early．I felt I needed some fresh air，and went downstairs and out of the building．

我睡了一会儿，但是醒得很早，我感到需要吸点新鲜空气。于是，我下了楼走出了这座楼房。

On the way down I fell over a man hiding in a dark corner，who ran away immediately．

沿着路走，我发现一个人躲在黑暗角落里，这个家伙立刻跑掉。

This worried me．I suspected he had followed my convict¹ to the house．Would he now inform the police？

这使我忧虑，我猜想他在这座房子已经盯上我那个囚犯了。现在，他会通知警察吗？

My guest and I had breakfast together．He ate noisily and greedily，like an animal．

我和我的客人共进早餐，他狼吞虎咽地吃着。

I tried hard not to be disgusted² by his manners³．He told me his name was Abel Magwitch，and after breakfast he lit his pipe and held out his hands for mine again．

对他的行为，我极力控制厌烦的情绪。他告诉我，他叫阿伯尔·马格韦契。早餐后，他点上烟斗，又向我伸出手来。

All I want is to stand and look at you，dear boy！he said．A real gentleman，made by me！

我所要求的就是能站在这里瞧瞧你，亲爱的孩子！他说，我一手培养出来的一名真正绅士！

You're going to have every－thing a London gentleman should have，a carriage，and horses，and everything！

伦敦的绅士有的东西你也会有：一辆马车，还有马匹，样样东西都有！

He threw a great thick wallet on to the table．All that is yours．I've come back to England to watch you spend it．

他把一个很厚的皮夹子扔到桌子上，这都是你的，我回到英国就是要看你花钱。

Stop！I cried desperately⁴．We must discuss your plans．How long are you going to stay here？

停！我拼命地喊着，我们必须讨论一下你的打算，你打算在这里呆多久？

How long？he repeated，surprised．I'm not going back．

多长时间？他吃惊地回答，我不打算回去了。
