8 A Tricky Invitation

8 A Tricky Invitation After dinner, Violet and Leon made the lunch invitations. Violet made the one for Rusella. She drew flowers and butterflies all over the front. Inside, she wrote: Dear Rusella, Please come to a picnic lunch in my backyard on Saturday at 12:00 pm. Meet us under the old oak tree. Sincerely, Violet, Sprite, and Leon

晚餐后，维奥莱特和利昂发出了午餐邀请。 维奥莱特给鲁塞拉做的。 她在前面画满了花和蝴蝶。 她在信中写道：亲爱的鲁斯拉：请周六中午12点来我家后院野餐。 在老橡树下等我们。 真诚的，Violet， Sprite和Leon

Sprite wanted to know why they couldn't have the lunch right away. "We have to wait until Saturday," Violet explained. "We can't invite two pixies to eat with us in the school lunchroom." "I guess not," Sprite agreed. Leon finished up Fixit's invitation. He drew some robots on the front.

雪碧想知道为什么他们不能马上吃午餐。 “我们得等到星期六，”维奥莱特解释说。 “我们不能邀请两个小精灵和我们一起在学校的餐厅吃饭。” “我想没有。”雪碧表示同意。 利昂完成了菲克特的邀请。 他在前面画了一些机器人。

"Leon, this is a fancy picnic lunch," Violet said. "Why did you draw robots?" "Robots are cool," Leon said. "Plus, maybe it will remind Fixit that he needs to fix mine." Leon's robot sat up. "Hug me, Mommy!" it said. Then it sucked its metal thumb. Violet took the invitation from Leon. "It's fine," she said. "Now, how do we deliver mail to pixies?" "It's easy," Sprite said. He took out some pixie dust from his bag and sprinkled it on Rusella's invitation.

“里昂，这是一顿高档的野餐午餐，”维奥莱特说。 “你为什么画机器人？”“机器人很酷，”利昂说。 “另外，也许它会提醒Fixit，他需要修理我的。” 李昂的机器人坐了起来。“拥抱我，妈妈！”它说。 然后它吸了吸它的金属拇指。 维奥莱特从李昂手中接过请柬。 “没事，”她说。“那么，我们怎么给小精灵送信呢？”“这很简单，”雪碧说。 他从包里拿出一些仙尘，撒在卢塞拉的请柬上。

"To Rusella!" Sprite cried. The invitation disappeared. "Hey, that's cool," Leon said. "I thought that only worked to move people around." "It's how pixies send mail," Sprite said. Then he sprinkled pixie dust on the other invitation. "To Fixit!" The second invitation vanished. "Now what do we do?" Leon asked. "We wait," Violet said. "And we hope that those pixies don't cause too much trouble between now and Saturday!"

“Rusella !”雪碧哭了。 请柬不见了。 “嘿，太酷了，”利昂说。 “我认为这只会让人们四处走动。” 雪碧说：“小精灵就是这样发送邮件的。” 然后他在另一张请柬上撒上了仙尘。 “搞定!”第二个邀请消失了。 “现在我们该怎么办？”利昂问道。 “我们等着，”维奥莱特说。“我们希望从现在到星期六这段时间，那些小妖精不要制造太多麻烦！”
