原文
"Oh, thanks," said Aunt Atossa sourly. "I never fancy your mother's
jelly--she always makes it too sweet. However, I'll try to worry some
down. My appetite's been dreadful poor this spring. I'm far from well,"
continued Aunt Atossa solemnly, "but still I keep a-doing. People who
can't work aren't wanted here. If it isn't too much trouble will you be
condescending enough to set the jelly in the pantry? I'm in a hurry to
get these spuds done tonight. I suppose you two LADIES never do anything
like this. You'd be afraid of spoiling your hands."
