In former days, there was a wealthy merchant, who owned billion acres of fertile land, a considerable sum of property, and multiple compounds (estates). He was the acknowledged leader at home and had four wives.

从前,有一位富有的商人,家有良田万顷,大量财富和多处庄园。在家里,他说一不二。他有四位爱人。

He had the greatest affection on the fourth wife, who enjoyed the beautiful brows and face---a fairy in his eyes. To amuse her, the merchant gave her a life of luxury, bought her fashionable blouses and boots, and took her out to dine on delicious food. Each of their marriage anniversary, he would celebrate.

他最钟爱他最小的妻子,她有着姣好的面容,在他眼里简直就是个仙女。为了讨好她,商人给她最奢华的生活,给她买时髦的衣裳,吃美味的佳肴。他们的每个结婚纪念日都要庆祝。

He was also fond of his third wife very much. She was amateur poet with great literacy and dignity. To approve of her, he gave her prevailing poetry as a present, visited the museum with her to see the antiques and went to the concert to enjoy the music of great musicians and pianists. He was very proud of her and introduced her and showed her to his friends. Nevertheless, he was always in great fear that she might go elsewhere with some other guys.

商人也很爱第三们妻子。她是一位业余诗人。她喜欢风雅,知书达理,端庄典雅。为了满足她的个人爱好,商人送她流行诗集,陪她参观博物馆的古董,听著名音乐爱的音乐会。他为她感到骄傲,把她介绍给朋友们,并常把好作为在朋友面前炫耀的资本。但他同时也忧心忡忡,怕她跟其他男人跑了。

His second spouse too, won his preference. As a cashier, she was keen and capable and energetic in commercial issues. Wherever he faced critical problems, he always turned to his second wife. And she’d always attempted to help him cope with the problems such as ash collection or conflicts with clients. Hence, to thank his second wife, he went to excursion with her for entertainment every several years.

当然,商人也爱第二位妻子。她是个管账的。生意上的事,她既热心又能干。每每遇到棘手的问题,他就会向她求助,而她也总能尽力帮他解决诸如筹钱,或与顾客之间的争执等事情。因此,作为答谢,商人每隔几年都会跟她出去游玩消遣。
