Fooling the Ferrets

Fooling the Ferrets

愚弄雪貂们

The next morning, Mole ran into the kitchen. Badger and Rat were making breakfast. Toad was swinging his sword around. “ Where have you been?” asked Toad.

第二天早上，鼹鼠跑进厨房。獾和水鼠正在做早餐。 蟾蜍挥舞着他的剑。“你上哪儿去了?”蟾蜍问。

“ I was talking with the ferrets, ” grinned Mole. “ I hope you were careful, ” said Rat, worried. “ The ferrets had their guns, of course, ” said Mole.

“我去和雪貂聊天了。”鼹鼠咧嘴笑着说。“我希望你小心点。”水鼠担心地说。 “当然了，雪貂带着枪。”鼹鼠说。

“ But I was careful. ” “ I found Toad’s old washwoman dress. So I put it on, ” said Mole. “ You did?” asked Badger.

“但我很小心。” “我找到了蟾蜍的洗衣婆旧衣服。所以我把它穿上了，”鼹鼠说。 “真的吗?“獾问。

“ I put on the bonnet and shawl too! ” laughed Mole. “ Then I went to Toad Hall. ” “ You were very brave, Mole, ” said Badger. Mole told them the story:

“我也戴上了帽子和披肩!”鼹鼠笑道。“然后我去了蛤蟆宅第。” “鼹鼠，你真勇敢，”獾说。鼹鼠给他们讲了这个故事:

“ The ferrets act very important. ‘Who are you?’ they shouted. ‘Good morning! ’ I said, very polite. ‘Do you need any washing done today?’

“雪貂的行为非常重要。‘你是谁?’他们喊道。 ‘早上好!’我很有礼貌地说。‘你今天有衣服要洗吗?’
