55、6.5 第三道茶 ...

  •   开文喝了一小口,脸上立即露出了笑容。他抬头看着杨丽莲道:“Let me guess the ingredients: cinnamon. I love cinnamon. (让我猜猜它的配料:肉桂皮。我最喜欢的。)”
      杨丽莲道:“Yes. And uh, what else (对。还有,别的什么?)”
      开文又喝了一口,道:“Pepper, ginger, and uh, of course honey. Am I right (花椒,姜,还有,还有蜂蜜。对了吗?)”
      “Yes. What are the white things floating on the water (对了。漂在水面上的白粒粒是什么?)”
      “Pop… corns (爆......玉米?)”
      杨丽莲笑了。“We don’t have that small corn. Pop rice. (没有那么小的玉米。爆大米。)”
      “I see. I feel it now. The taste is very special; it’s not only sweet… (知道了。我有感觉了。茶的味道非常特别,不仅仅是甜……)”
      “This is the third course of the Three Course Tea. We call it San Dao Cha. (这茶泡三次,这杯是第三次的。这叫做三道茶。)”
      “San Dao Cha… (三道茶。)”开文把茶喝干,道:“Thank you very much for this unforgettable San Dao Cha. (非常感谢你,给我喝这难以忘怀的三道茶。)”他站起来,准备走了。
      杨丽莲动情地说道:“Hope you don’t forget our small school. (希望你别忘了我的小学校。)”
      开文马上回答道:“No, never, especially its principal. (怎么会?更忘不了它的校长。)”
      杨丽莲脸红了,但她脸上挂着笑容。她说:“Please wait for a minute. (请等我一小会儿。)”
      杨丽莲走进卧室,一会儿走出来,左手拿着一沓现金,右手拎着一个色彩亮丽的民族包。他走向开文把钱递给他。
      开文后退一步道:“What are you doing (你这是干吗?)”
      杨丽莲说:“This is the money I gave my mom that day. She didn’t take it. I know you didn’t earn much this couple of months in Dali. Hope it’s enough for an air ticket back to Vancouver. (这是那天我给我妈的钱。她后来没要。我知道,这几个月你在大理没挣多少钱。希望这点钱够买一张回温哥华的机票。)”
      “Thank you. But, no, I, I can’t take your money. I can borrow some from David for the ticket. (谢谢!但,不,我,我不能要你的钱。机票钱我可以向戴维借。)”
      “I know David is your friend. And I am your friend, too. You helped me teach English … (我知道戴维是你的朋友,我也是你的朋友啊。你帮我教英语课……)”
      “I’ve only taught for a couple of weeks. It doesn’t count. (我才教了两三个礼拜,那不算数。)”
