Henry's underpants. A late birthday present! Whoopee! Just when you thought you got all your loot, more treasure arrives. Horrid Henry shook the small thin package. It was light. Very light. Maybe it was... Oh, please let it be money! Of course it was money. Where else could it be? There's so much stuff he needed. A mutant max lunchbox, a wrapper zapper blaster, and of course the new Terminator Gladiator game he kept seeing advertised on TV. Mum and Dad were so mean and horrible they wouldn't buy it for him. But he could buy whatever he liked with his own money.

亨利的小内裤。 迟到的生日礼物！哇太棒啦！ 就在你以为所有礼物都收完的时候，又有宝贝送上门啦。 淘气包亨利晃了晃那个薄薄的小包裹。 它轻飘飘的，特别轻。 说不定是… 哦，求求了一定要是钱啊！ 肯定是钱嘛，不然还能是什么？ 他想买的东西可多了：超级变异人午餐盒，零食包装发射器， 当然还有他在电视广告里看了好多次的新游戏《角斗士终结者》。 爸爸妈妈小气死了，才不肯给他买呢。 但要是他自己有钱，想买什么就买什么。

So there! Ha ha ha ha ha! Wouldn't Ralph be green with envy when he swaggered into school with a mutant Max lunchbox? And no way would he even let Peter touch his wrapper -zapper blaster! So, how much money had he been sent? Maybe enough for him to buy everything. Horrid Henry tore off the wrapping paper. Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Great Aunt Greta had done it again. Great Aunt Greta thought he was a girl. Great Aunt Greta had been told ten billion times that his name was Henry, not Henrietta, and that he wasn't four years old. But every year Peter would get ten pounds, or a football, or a computer game, and he would get a walkie -talkie, teezy -weezy burpee slurpee doll, or a princess pamper parlor, or baby poopie pants. And now, this!

太棒啦！哈哈哈哈哈！ 等他挎着超级变异人午餐盒大摇大摆走进学校，拉尔夫肯定要嫉妒死啦！ 还有他的零食包装发射器，碰都不会让彼得碰一下！ 那到底寄了多少钱给他呀？ 说不定够他把所有想要的都买下来呢。 淘气包亨利一把扯掉包装纸。 啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！ 格雷塔姑婆又干这种事了。 格雷塔姑婆一直以为他是个小女孩。 大家都跟格雷塔姑婆说过无数次了，他叫亨利，不叫亨丽埃塔， 而且他早就不是四岁小屁孩了。 可每年彼得都能拿到十英镑，要么是足球，要么是电脑游戏， 他拿到的却是玩具对讲机，软乎乎的打嗝流口水洋娃娃， 要么是公主装扮套装，要么是婴儿尿不湿。 现在倒好，又是这玩意！

Horrid Henry picked up the birthday card. Maybe there was money inside. He opened it. Dear Henny, you must be such a big girl now, so I know you love a pair of big girl pants. I'll bet pink is your favourite colour. Love, Great Aunt Gweta. Horrid Henry stared in horror at the frilly pink lacy knickers decorated with glittery hearts and bows. This was the worst present he had ever received. Worse than socks. Worse than handkerchiefs. Even worse than a book. Blech! Eck! Luck! Horrid Henry chucked the hideous underpants in the bin where they belonged.

淘气包亨利拿起生日贺卡，说不定里面夹着钱呢，他打开了贺卡。 亲爱的亨妮，你现在肯定长成大姑娘啦，我猜你一定喜欢大姑娘穿的小内裤。 我打赌粉色肯定是你最爱的颜色。爱你的格雷塔姑婆。 淘气包亨利惊恐地盯着那条粉色蕾丝边内裤，上面还装饰着闪粉爱心和蝴蝶结。 这是他收到过的最糟的礼物，比袜子糟，比手帕糟，甚至比书还糟。 呸！呕！恶心死了！ 淘气包亨利把这条丑爆了的内裤扔进了垃圾桶，它就该待在那种地方。

Ding dong! Oh no! Rude Ralph was here to play! If he saw those knickers, Henry would never hear the end of it. His name would be Mud forever! Clump, clump, clump. Ralph was stomping up the stairs to his bedroom. Henry snatched the terrible pants from the bin and looked around his room wildly for a hiding place. Under the pillow? What if they had a pillow fight? Under the bed? What if they played hide and seek? Quickly, Henry stuffed them in the back of his pants drawer. How get rid of them the moment Ralph leaves, he thought. Mercy, your majesty, mercy! King Henry the horrible looked down at his sniveling brother.

叮咚！ 哦糟了！粗鲁鬼拉尔夫来找他玩了！ 要是被他看到这条内裤，亨利这辈子都要被他笑话了。 他的名声就彻底臭了！ 噔，噔，噔。 拉尔夫正咚咚咚地踩着楼梯往他的卧室走。 亨利一把把那条糟心的内裤从垃圾桶里捞出来，慌慌张张地在房间里找地方藏。 藏枕头底下？万一他们玩打枕头仗怎么办？ 藏床底下？ 万一他们玩捉迷藏怎么办？ 亨利飞快地把内裤塞到了自己内裤抽屉的最里面。 等拉尔夫一走我就赶紧把这玩意扔了，他想。 饶命啊，陛下，饶了我吧！ 可怕的亨利国王低头看着哭哭啼啼的弟弟。

Off with his head! He ordered. Henry, Henry, Henry! Cheered his grateful subjects. Henry! King Henry the Horrible woke up. His Medusa mother was looming above him. You've overslept! shrieked mum. School starts in five minutes. Get dressed! Quick, quick! She pulled the duvet off Henry. Wha, wha? mumbled Henry. Dad raced into the room. Hurry! shouted Dad. We're late! He yanked Henry out of bed.

把他的脑袋砍了！他下令道。亨利！亨利！亨利！ 感激的臣民们欢呼着。亨利！ 可怕的亨利国王 醒了。他那美杜莎一样的妈妈正低头盯着他。 你睡过头了！妈妈尖叫道。 还有五分钟就上课了，快穿衣服！快点！快点！ 她一把扯掉了亨利身上的被子。 啥，啥？亨利迷迷糊糊地嘟囔着。 爸爸冲进了房间。快点！爸爸喊道，我们要迟到了！ 他一把把亨利从床上拽了下来。
