Chapter 13 - 晚餐后的交流 Wǎn cān hòu de jiāo liú

深广

Shēn guǎng

小时候,父亲规定我和弟弟,
Xiǎoshíhou, fùqīn guīdìng wǒ hé dìdi,
晚餐后都要和家人


交流所学到的东西。
wǎncān hòu dōu yào hé jiārén
jiāoliú suǒ xué dào de dōngxi.
有一天,吃了晚餐,
我们一家人坐在沙发上,
Yǒu yītiān, chīle wǎncān,
wǒmen yījiā rén zuò zài shāfā shàng,
父亲泡上一杯茶,
开始问我们
Fùqīn pào shàng yìbēi chá, 
kāishǐ wèn wǒmen
雨生,你先说说,
今天学了些什么?
Yǔ shēng, nǐ xiān shuō shuō, 
jīntiān xuéle xiē shénme?


我今天知道尼泊尔的人口
Wǒ jīntiān zhīdào níbó'ěr de rénkǒu
父亲听得津津有味,
Fùqīn tīng dé jīnjīnyǒuwèi,
不停地点着头:
Bù tíng dìdiǎnzhe tóu:
嗯。。。好
Ń. . . Hǎo





不论我说什么
Búlùn wǒ shuō shénme
父亲总是说好
Fùqīn zǒng shì shuō hǎo
我觉
得很奇怪
Wǒ juéde hěn qíguài

接着,父亲看着坐在沙发
Jiēzhe, fùqīn kànzhe zuò zài shāfā
另一端的母亲,问道
lìng yìduān de mǔqīn, wèn dào
雨生说的这些,
Yǔ shēng shuō de zhèxiē,
你知道吗?
Nǐ zhīdào ma?

尼泊尔?

我连它在什么地方
都不知道呢!

Níbó'ěr? 
Wǒ lián tā zài shénme dìfāng 
dōu bù zhīdào ne!

母亲的回答使气氛变得轻松起来
Mǔqīn de huídá shǐ qìfēn biàn de qīngsōng qǐlái

雨生, 父亲又说
Yǔ shēng, fùqīn yòu shuō
把地图拿来,我们来告诉妈妈尼泊尔在哪里。
Bǎ dìtú ná lái, wǒmen lái gàosu māma níbó'ěr zài nǎlǐ.

于是,全家人开始
在地图上找尼泊尔。
Yúshì, quán jiārén kāishǐ 
zài dìtú shàng zhǎo níbó'ěr.

这样的情形一再重复,日积月累
Zhèyàng de qíngxíng yízài chóngfù, rìjīyuèlěi
我和弟弟曾长了不少知识
Wǒ hé dìdì céng zhǎng liǎo bù shǎo zhīshì

我们当时都是孩子
Wǒmen dāngshí dōu shì háizi
只想去屋外玩踢馆子的游戏,
Zhǐ xiǎng qù wūwài wán tī guǎn zi de yóuxì,
一点儿也不明白父亲的用意
Yìdiǎnr yě bù míngbái fùqīn de yòngyì
便不知道妈妈每次都故意
Biàn bù zhīdào māma měi cì dōu gùyì
装着什么都不懂。
Zhuāngzhe shénme dōu bù dǒng.

长大以后,我才体会到
Zhǎngdà yǐhòu, wǒ cái tǐhuì dào
这样学习的好处。
Zhèyàng xuéxí de hǎochù.

晚餐后的交流,
令我终生难忘

Wǎncān hòu de jiāoliú,
