呼啸山庄 - 第6章
Heathcliffs Return
希斯克利夫的归来
Three years after Heathcliff disappeared, he returned to Wuthering Heights. He had changed completely. He was no longer the dirty, uneducated boy. He was now a tall, handsome gentleman, well-dressed and wealthy.
希斯克利夫失踪三年后，他回到了呼啸山庄。他完全变了。他不再是那个肮脏、未受教育的男孩。他现在是一个高大英俊的绅士，穿着考究，富有。
Catherine was overjoyed to see him. She ran to greet him and threw her arms around him. Edgar Linton was less pleased. He felt uncomfortable with Heathcliff's dark, intense presence.
凯瑟琳见到他欣喜若狂。她跑过去迎接他，双臂搂住他。埃德加·林顿则不那么高兴。他对希斯克利夫黑暗而强烈的气场感到不安。
Heathcliff did not explain where he had been or how he had become wealthy. He rented a room from Hindley and began to spend time at Wuthering Heights. Hindley, who had been drinking heavily, welcomed him as a tenant, not recognizing the servant boy he had abused years before.
希斯克利夫没有解释他去了哪里，也没有解释他是如何变得富有的。他从辛德利那里租了一个房间，开始花时间待在呼啸山庄。一直酗酒成性的辛德利把他当作房客欢迎，没有认出多年前他虐待的那个仆人男孩。
Heathcliff was polite to everyone, but Mrs. Dean could see the cold anger in his eyes. He had returned for one purpose: to take revenge on Hindley and to win back Catherine's love.
希斯克利夫对每个人都很有礼貌，但丁太太能看到他眼中的冷怒。他回来只有一个目的：向辛德利复仇，并赢回凯瑟琳的爱。
He began to gamble with Hindley, winning large amounts of money. Hindley drank more and more, losing control of his finances. Heathcliff gradually took possession of Wuthering Heights, paying Hindley's debts and becoming the real master of the house.
他开始和辛德利赌博，赢了大量的钱。辛德利越喝越多，失去了对财务的控制。希斯克利夫逐渐接管了呼啸山庄，偿还辛德利的债务，成为这座房子的真正主人。
Young Hareton, Hindley's son, was now six years old. Heathcliff treated him with contempt, remembering how Hindley had treated him as a child. He refused to let the boy go to school and made him work as a servant, just as Hindley had once made Heathcliff work.
辛德利的儿子小哈里顿现在六岁了。希斯克利夫轻蔑地对待他，记得辛德利小时候是怎么对待他的。他不让这孩子上学，让他当仆人干活，就像辛德利曾经让希斯克利夫干活一样。
Mrs. Dean was worried about everyone. She saw the evil in Heathcliff's heart, but she was powerless to stop him. She watched as he destroyed the lives of those who had once wronged him, careful and patient, like a spider weaving its web.
丁太太为每个人担心。她看到了希斯克利夫心中的邪恶，但她无力阻止他。她看着他摧毁那些曾经伤害过他的人的生活，小心而耐心，像一只蜘蛛在织网。
Catherine, caught between her husband and her first love, became increasingly unhappy. She tried to be kind to both men, but their hatred for each other made this impossible. The tension at Thrushcross Grange grew unbearable.
凯瑟琳夹在丈夫和初恋之间，变得越来越不开心。她试图对两个男人都好，但他们彼此的仇恨使这变得不可能。画眉田庄的紧张气氛变得难以忍受。
