At length I returned from two weeks leave of absence to find that my patrons had arrived three days ago in Roulettenberg.
마침내 나는 2주간의 휴가를 마치고 돌아와 보니 나의 후원자들이 3일 전에 룰레텐베르크에 도착해 있었다.
I received from them a welcome quite different to that which I had expected.
나는 그들에게서 내가 예상했던 것과는 전혀 다른 환영을 받았습니다.
The General eyed me coldly, greeted me in rather haughty fashion, and dismissed me to pay my respects to his sister.
장군은 나를 차갑게 바라보며 다소 거만한 태도로 인사를 건네고는 그의 누이에게 인사하러 가라고 나를 돌려보냈다.
It was clear that from somewhere money had been acquired.
돈이 어디선가 구해진 것이 분명했다.
I thought I could even detect a certain shamefacedness in the General’s glance.
나는 장군의 눈빛에서 부끄러움까지 감지할 수 있다고 생각했다.
Maria Philipovna, too, seemed distraught, and conversed with me with an air of detachment.
마리아 필리포브나도 당황한 듯 보였고, 무관심한 태도로 나와 대화를 나누었다.
Nevertheless, she took the money which I handed to her, counted it, and listened to what I had to tell.
그럼에도 불구하고 그녀는 내가 건넨 돈을 받아 세어 보고 내가 하는 말을 들었다.
To luncheon there were expected that day a Monsieur Mezentsov, a French lady, and an Englishman; for, whenever money was in hand, a banquet in Muscovite style was always given.
그날 점심 식사에는 메젠초프 씨, 프랑스 여인, 그리고 영국 남자가 올 것으로 예상되었습니다. 왜냐하면 돈이 있을 때마다 모스크바식으로 연회가 항상 열렸기 때문입니다.
