康拉丁

她下楼去小屋了，康拉丁说。

' She went down to the shed , ' said Conradin .

康拉丁10岁，经常生病。

Conradin was ten years old and was often ill .

过了一段时间，姑妈注意到康拉丁总是去小屋。

After a time the aunt noticed Conradin 's visits to the shed .

每天晚上在小屋和卧室里，康拉丁反复重复着那句话。

And every night , in the shed and in his bedroom , Con radin repeated again and again .

康拉丁从心底里恨她，但是平静地服从她，而且毫无怨言地服药。

One : Conradin hated her with all his heart , but he obeyed her quietly and took his medicine without arguing .

哎，总得有人去，厨子回答。当他们在争论的时候，康拉丁又给自己烤了一片面包。

' Well , someone will have to , 'answered the cook . And , while they were arguing , Conradin made himself another piece of toast .

那天晚上在小屋里，康拉丁伤心地看着母鸡曾住过的那个空空的角落。于是，第一次，他让他的雪貂上帝为他做一件事。

In the shed that evening Conradin looked sadly at the empty corner where his chicken had lived . And , for the first time , he asked his ferret-god to do something for him .
