Chapter 10 Pip and Herbert talk about love
第10章 匹普和赫伯特談論愛情
I returned to London，dreaming of the beautiful girl，now a woman，who had so influenced my childhood，and who，I hoped，would share my future life．
我回到倫敦，夢見那個漂亮的姑娘，一個對我童年產生重大影響的女人，我希望和這位姑娘分享我未來的生活。
I am sorry to say I did not think about dear，good Joe at all． I felt I had to express my feelings to someone，and so that evening I told Herbert my secret．
我很抱歉地說，親愛的好人喬在我心目中早已化為泡影了，我覺得必須向別人表達我的感情。因此，那天晚上，我把秘密告訴了赫伯特。
Instead of being surprised，as I expected，my friend replied，
當期望著我的朋友回答時，我大吃一驚。
I know that already，Handel．You never told me，but it was obvious．You've always loved Estella．
我已經知道了，漢德爾。你從來沒有告訴我，但那是顯而易見的。你總是愛著艾絲黛拉，
It's very lucky that you seem to have been chosen to marry her．Does she，er，admire you？
看起來你選擇她和你結婚，真是十分幸運的。是她，呃，喜歡你嗎？
I shook my head sadly．Not at all． And Herbert，you may think me lucky．I have great expectations，I know．But all that depends on one person！
我傷心地搖搖頭，一點也不喜歡，赫伯特，你可以認為我幸運，我有一個遠大前程，我知道。但是，所有一切都靠的是一個人！
And I still don't really know how much I'll receive，or when！ Nothing is certain！
我仍然搞不明白我到底會得到多少，會到什么時候！事事都拿不準！
Now，Handel，said Herbert cheerfully，don't lose hope．Mr Jaggers himself told you you would have a large fortune，didn't he？
喂，漢德爾，赫伯特高興地說，不要喪失信心，賈格斯先生他自己告訴過你，你將有一大筆財富，是嗎？
He would never make a mistake about something like that．Anyway，you'll be twenty－one soon．Perhaps you'll discover more then．
像這種事情一樣，他從來沒有做錯過什么事兒。無論怎樣，你馬上21歲了，那時，或許你會看得更透。
關于《遠大前程》不久，富有的老處女郝維辛小姐派人為她尋覓一個男孩，以伴老服務的名義，來實施她惡毒的愛情游戲的計劃，皮普被選中了。
