Time that the entrance wind chimes make a sound, Yang Yi in their exclusive booths, is merry with Mo Fei and Xixi. If the ordinary guest, this will not bring to their attention but actually. 门口的风铃响起来的时候,杨轶正在他们的专属卡座里,跟墨菲曦曦有说有笑。如果是普通的客人,这倒不会引起他们的注意。 But Ding Xiang is greeting the guest in English: „ Good_ 丁湘却是在用英语招呼着客人:“good_ morning , what _ morning,what_ an_ an_ i_ i_ do_ do_ for_ for_ you, you, sir?( Good morning, Sir, what can you come?) ” sir?(早上好,先生,你要来点什么?)” Was studies the tyrant worthily, the Ding Xiang English says very fluently, will not be much more anxious, pronounces is also very standard. Naturally, before high school time of Ding Xiang in native place crag Yexian, came under the influence of these itself spoken English not good teacher, many phonetic notation pronunciation were inaccurate , after to university, she trained hard with the recording tape. 不愧是学霸,丁湘的英语说得很流利,不会紧张得吞吞吐吐,就连发音也很标准。当然,以前丁湘在老家岩叶县上高中时候,受到那些本身英语口语就不好的老师的影响,很多音标发音不准确,也是到了大学之后,她才自己跟着录音带苦练出来的。 Foreign guest?” The English of Mo Fei to Ding Xiang has not thought but actually very surprised, what she is curious is the guest. Yang Yi this coffee shop was very remote, at least when she comes to the shop, has not seen has the foreign guest. “还有外国客人?”墨菲丁湘的英语水平倒没有觉得很惊讶,她好奇的是来客。杨轶这家咖啡店本来就很偏僻,至少在她来店里的时候,就没见过有外国客人。 Occasionally will have, in the school is invited the foreign teacher......” Yang Yi also when explained to Mo Fei, the response sound of guest made him stop. “偶尔会有,学校里有请一些外籍老师……”杨轶还在跟墨菲解释的时候,客人的回应声让他不由地停了下来。 I_ “i_ don't _ don’t_ know. know. it's _ it’s_ hard_ hard_ to_ to_ explain. explain. my_ my_ friend_ friend_ told_ told_ me......( I do not know how does not know to explain, friend of mine told me......) whatspeech was the Luisa father, David! me……(我不知道,不知道怎么解释,我的朋友告诉我……)”说话的是路薇莎的爸爸,大卫 He found this coffee shop with great difficulty, but is not good to confirm that this coffee shop is that Yang Yi opens. 他好不容易找到这家咖啡店,但并不好确认这家咖啡店是不是杨轶开的那家。 In the advertisement Street Corner's Coffee Shop is Chinese name, David cannot certainly understand, but Yang Yi gives him is also only the address, does not have the English name of coffee shop. 招牌上“街角的咖啡店”是中文名字,大卫当然看不懂,而杨轶给他的也只是地址,并没有咖啡店的英文名字。 After David comes, looked, cannot see Yang Yi, this also makes him feel that felt embarrassed. 大卫进来之后,看了一圈,并没有能够看到杨轶,这也更让他感到为难了。 Right, Yang Yi's English Leon! David attempts to ask Ding Xiang with this name, but where Ding Xiang knows that the Yang Yi's English name is this? They when there onset and retreat is awkward, Yang Yi came out to break through for them finally. 对,杨轶的英文名里昂大卫尝试着用这个名字来问丁湘,可丁湘哪里知道杨轶的英文名是这个?两人在那里进退为难的时候,杨轶终于出来为他们解围了。 David, did you come?” Yang Yi smiles, walked from own booth, behind buttocks also with a small tail. 大卫,你来了?”杨轶笑着,从自己的卡座里走了出来,屁股后面还跟着一个小尾巴。 Xixi heard that the Luisa father came, thinks that Luisa with, then happily will also follow behind to come out in the father. However, after little girl runs vivaciously, left has a look, right has a look, does not have to see the back that own partner, immediately, on the little girl cheek the bright smiling face received, she is somewhat depressed, somewhat puzzled looks to adults. 曦曦听说路薇莎的爸爸来了,以为路薇莎也会跟过来,便开心地跟在爸爸身后出来。然而,小姑娘蹦蹦跳跳地跑出来后,左看看,右看看,都没有看到自己伙伴的背影,顿时,小姑娘脸蛋上灿烂的笑容不由地收了起来,她有些郁闷,又有些不解地望向大人们 David saw that Yang Yi was very happy, looked for the coffee shop the worry mood of a moment ago troublesome and puzzled bringing vanishes into thin air, he after Yang Yi exchanged greetings a while, was saying must taste presently grinds the coffee that tastily Yang Yi said. 大卫看到杨轶很高兴,刚才找咖啡店的麻烦和纠结带来的烦恼情绪都不翼而飞,他跟杨轶寒暄了一会儿之后,说着要尝尝杨轶说的好喝的现磨咖啡。 He gives me, Xixi kindergarten a father of friend, understanding. You are busy other.” Yang Yi basically exchanges with Swedish with David now, happen to can also exercise own spoken language, he said after David several, then nodded with nearby Ding Xiang. “他交给我吧,曦曦幼儿园一个朋友的父亲,认识的。你去忙别的。”杨轶大卫现在基本上都是用瑞典语交流,正好也能锻炼一下自己的口语,他跟大卫说了几句之后,便跟旁边的丁湘点了点头。 David is a guest, is the friend of Yang Yi's coffee, therefore, Yang Yi arrives at the bar, pulls out the top grade Mandheling coffee bean that oneself last month entered newly, gave David to rub bean, to make the coffee personally. 大卫是客人,也算是杨轶的咖啡之友,所以,杨轶来到吧台,掏出自己上个月新入的特级曼特宁咖啡豆,亲自给大卫豆子、煮咖啡。 This coffee bean is good, Mandheling? I have not seen this fragrance, such as the caramel is common, but compared with ordinary must, very be specially rich.” David brings coffee bean together, smelled, cannot bear exclaim. “这咖啡豆不错,曼特宁?我还没见过这种香味的,如焦糖一般,但比普通的还要特别,很浓郁。”大卫拿来一块咖啡豆,闻了闻,忍不住惊叹道。 The coffee bean that one buy obtained the praise of coffee amateur, Yang Yi also with having the glory, happily showed a faint smile. 自己买的咖啡豆得到了咖啡爱好者的赞扬,杨轶也与有荣焉,得意地微微一笑。 Uncle David.” Xixi could not bear finally, she sneaked in the bar, is holding father's leg, is depending upon father's waist, is supine the small head, had the courage to call one. 大卫叔叔。”曦曦终于忍不住了,她钻进了吧台,抱着爸爸的腿,依靠着爸爸的腰部,仰着小脑袋,鼓起了勇气叫了一声。 Hello, xixi.” David lowers the head, greeted with Xixi with a smile. “你好啊,xixi。”大卫低头,跟曦曦笑着打个招呼。 little girl then has not spoken, she has drawn father's lower hem, said low voice: Papa, you, can you help me ask Uncle David? How hasn't Luisa come?” 小姑娘却没有接着说话,她拉了拉爸爸的衣摆,小声说道:“粑粑,你,你可以帮我问一下大卫叔叔吗?路薇莎怎么没有来?” You can ask!” Yang Yi encourages to say. “你可以自己问啊!”杨轶鼓励道。 But, but I do not know how to say.” Xixi somewhat worried, draws father's lower hem to swing. “可是,可是我不知道怎么说。”曦曦有些着急,拉着爸爸的衣摆摇了起来。 You can ask Uncle David like this, where is Luisa at? What last Yang Yi uses is Swedish, actually Yang Yi has taught the Xixi similar sentence pronunciation, but Xixi has not understood to extrapolate. “你可以这样问大卫叔叔,‘路薇莎在哪?’”最后一句杨轶用的是瑞典语,其实杨轶有教过曦曦类似的句子发音,不过曦曦还没有懂得举一反三。 David listened to Yang Yi's a moment ago words, although the front father and daughter's dialogs he cannot understand completely, but can also guess correctly the Xixi intention probably. 大卫听了杨轶的刚才句话,虽然前面父女俩的对话他完全听不懂,但也能大概猜到曦曦的意图。 Xixi has duplicated one low voice, but she thought that she said not well. Spoke to Uncle David, may not have to exchange with Luisa that freely, how was casual with own little friend saying that spoke incorrectly nothing. But with the Sir with oneself not skilled language speech, Xixi did not have this courage. 曦曦小声地重复了一句,可是她觉得自己说得不好。跟大卫叔叔说话,可没有跟路薇莎交流那么自如,跟自己的小伙伴随便怎么说都可以,说错了也没什么。但跟大人还用自己不熟练的语言说话,曦曦没有这个勇气。 Papa, you help me!” The Xixi pouts small mouth, said suffering from injustice. 粑粑,你帮我嘛!”曦曦嘟着小嘴巴,委屈地说道。 Luisa at home, she has not come with me together.” David does not hate to look that this little girl is awkward, then on own initiative replied. 路薇莎在家里,她没有跟我一起过来。”大卫都舍不得看这个小姑娘为难,便主动地回答道。 Xixi winked the big eye, somewhat cannot understand. 曦曦眨了眨大眼睛,有些听不懂。 David has duplicated in English. 大卫用英语重复了一遍。 The Xixi English is better than Swedish, this she understood what is heard. The little girl somewhat disappointedly low small head, she also thinks that can play with own little friend together! 曦曦的英语比瑞典语好,这回她听明白了。小姑娘有些失望地低下小脑袋,她还以为可以跟自己的小伙伴一起玩呢! „I am sorry that I do not know you also in coffee shop, I should come the Luisa belt, she also very much wants to come out to play, but before , I do not know whether leads her to come out appropriately.” David uses English, fills with the apology to say with Xixi that looks at the little girl appearance, David always thought one have made any bad thing, making others little girl put in great inconvenience! “我很抱歉,我不知道你也在咖啡店里,我应该把路薇莎带过来,她也很想出来玩,可是之前我不知道是否合适带她出来。”大卫用英语,满怀歉意地跟曦曦说道,看着小姑娘的样子,大卫总觉得自己做了什么坏事,让人家小姑娘委屈了! Has not related. Xixi, comes, do not disturb your Papa, has waited till the kindergarten, you and Luisa can play!” Mo Fei does not know when walked, she beckons to Xixi, shows a faint smile to hint with David. “没关系。曦曦,过来,别打扰你粑粑,等到了幼儿园,你和路薇莎还是可以玩的嘛!”墨菲不知道什么时候走了出来,她向曦曦招了招手,也跟大卫微微一笑示意。 This is my wife, Mo Fei.” Yang Yi introduced to David own wife. “这是我的妻子,墨菲。”杨轶大卫介绍一下自己的妻子。 After chatting several, Mo Fei brings disappointed Xixi to go back the booth to play, outside keeps Yang Yi to entertain the guest. 聊了几句后,墨菲带着失望的曦曦回去卡座玩,外面留着杨轶招待客人。 After the coffee boils, David has drunk before it's too late, he was only hearing the coffee smells as sweet, then praised without cease, has drunk one, was full of praise. 咖啡煮好之后,大卫趁热喝了起来,他光是闻着咖啡飘香,便赞叹不已,喝了一口,更是赞不绝口。 I look at Ding to do to the coffee of other guests, although is not this cup is so special, but is also very attentive, Leon, you said right, your this coffee shops are truly good, the coffee that even makes the coffee shops of some of our Sweden streets is tastier than!” David has sighed with emotion. “我看丁做给其他客人的咖啡,虽然不是这杯这么特别,但也很用心,里昂,你说的没错,你们这家咖啡店确实很不错,甚至比我们瑞典一些街边的咖啡店做的咖啡还好喝!”大卫感慨了起来。 Starts to chat since the coffee, Yang Yi far apart chatted with David, luckily the Yang Yi aspect of knowledge is quite broad, chatted not to have what barrier with the local conditions and social customs of David various countries. 从咖啡开始聊起,杨轶大卫天南地北地聊了起来,幸亏杨轶知识面比较广,跟大卫各国的风土人情聊起来都没有什么障碍。 You should come to Sweden to play, Sweden is also a beautiful country, not only we city, the attractive forest and seacoast......” David said with Yang Yi delightedly. “你应该来瑞典玩玩,瑞典也是一个漂亮的国家,我们不只是城市,还有漂亮的森林、海岸……”大卫眉飞色舞地跟杨轶说道。 A'le giant stone!” Yang Yi is pointing at David, they laugh. “还有阿勒巨石阵!”杨轶指着大卫,他们俩哈哈大笑起来。 Finally, must chat on child, although David is not qualified house-dad, but that is only the cook is unqualified, he on the attendance child, still put in many energy. 最后,还是要聊到孩子身上,大卫虽然不是一个合格的奶爸,可那也只是厨艺不合格,他在照顾孩子上面,依然投入了很多的精力。 I thought what is very strange, will you as an enterprise management, how have these many time to accompany the child?” Yang Yi asked puzzled. “我觉得很奇怪的是,你作为一个企业高管,怎么会有这么多时间陪伴孩子?”杨轶不解地问道。 In fact, our these managers, and ordinary staff is similar, equally punctual coming and going to work, only if urgent, very serious matter, I will not accompany the time of family to use me in the work! This incorrect . Moreover, it will not bring many income to me.” David answered. “事实上,我们这些经理,跟普通的员工差不多,都一样准时上下班,除非非常紧急、非常重大的事情,我不会将我陪伴家庭的时间用在工作上!这不对的,而且,它并不会给我带来很多的收入。”大卫解释道。 Originally, because of the tax rate of high quota, making his these high income social strata the real income draw are lowly more, not compared with ordinary staff high many. Definitely has the difference, but also is only few time of disparities, is not the huge disparities of domestic that several thousand monthly salaries and several million yearly salaries! 原来,因为高额的税率,让他这些高收入阶层的实际收入拉低很多很多,并不比普通员工高多少。肯定有区别,但也只是寥寥几倍的差距,并不是国内那种几千块月薪和几百万年薪的巨大差距! However, such high tax rate, David actually endures gladly: This is very normal, the tax that I give are more , the welfare that obtains are also more, moreover this to the future of child and country also will be a safeguard.” 然而,这样高的税率,大卫却甘之若饴:“这很正常,我给的税越多,得到的福利也越多,而且这对我们孩子、国家的未来也是一个保障。” The system of each country is different, whom cannot say to be good who is bad, only then suits own perhaps is best! The high tax increasing welfare policy also not necessarily can suit the national condition of China, after all the high welfare raises the mediocre person, is not has not seen in some profession. 每个国家的制度都不一样,说不出谁好谁坏,只有适合自己的也许才是最好的!高税收高福利政策也不见得能适合中华的国情,毕竟高福利养庸人,也不是不在某个行业见过。 Regarding the politics, Yang Yi does not have what interest, he educates the way comparison of child to be interested to David actually. 对于政治,杨轶没有什么兴趣,他倒是对大卫教育孩子的方式比较感兴趣。 You said that you will accompany Luisa to study every night?” Yang Yi asked curiously. “你说你们每天晚上都会陪路薇莎读书?”杨轶好奇地问道。 Yes, at least a half hour.” David sighed, said that I with some Chinese employee communications, they have not read with my child Qiyue, this made me feel very much surprised.” “是的,至少半个小时。”大卫叹息一声,说道,“我跟一些中华员工交流过,他们并没有跟自己的孩子一起阅读,这很让我感到惊讶。” „Do you know? This is very important parent-child time! Please imagine, sleeps the first half hour, the child is the same with the small kitty, stays in parents' arms, then we read under the warm desk lamp together, is this warm? After they grow up, remembers this recollection, will be very certainly happy!” David full belt happy expression was describing this scene. “你知道吗?这是很重要的亲子时刻!请想象一下,睡觉前半个小时,孩子跟小猫咪一样,呆在父母的怀里,然后我们一起在温暖的台灯下看书,这多么温馨?等他们长大之后,想起这段回忆,一定会很幸福!”大卫满带笑意地描述着这个场景。 The happy heart of Yang Yi to such scene did not deny but actually that is he equally is also happy to a Xixi lecture of story! 杨轶对这样的场景的幸福感倒不否认,可是他给曦曦讲故事也一样幸福啊! But, can they be able to understand these characters?” The Yang Yi knitting the brows head, said that studies to the children of this age, was a little range of too superhigh their ability? Like me, I to a Xixi lecture of story, these stories she listen is very happy.” “可是,她们能看得懂那些字吗?”杨轶皱了皱眉头,说道,“读书对这个年纪的孩子们来说,是不是有点太超出她们能力的范围了?像我,我都是给曦曦讲故事,这些故事她听着就很开心。”
