星期六Saturday

老爸把錢匯給了蓋瑞叔叔，然后他就音訊全 無了，直到今天才出現(xiàn)。蓋瑞叔叔進屋后跟我們講了事情的原委。Dad sent Uncle Gary the money， and we hadnt heard from him until today. After Uncle Gary came inside the house， he told us what happened.

他說他在波士頓遇到了一個街角賣T恤衫的人。這個店主跟他說，只要他肯接手自己的生意，準(zhǔn)能大賺一筆。He said he met a guy in Boston who sold T-shirts on a street corner， and this guy told him that if he wanted to take over his business， he could make a bundle.

拿到老爸給他的錢后，蓋瑞叔叔就把那人的T恤衫全買了下來。不過蓋瑞叔叔怎么都沒有想到，T恤衫上有個錯別字，等他發(fā)現(xiàn)的時候，賣家早就溜得影兒都沒了。So after he got the money from Dad， Uncle Gary bought up the guys T-shirts. But what Uncle Gary didnt know was that the T-shirts had a typo on them， and by the time he noticed the problem， the guy was already gone.

蓋瑞叔叔說要借個地方落腳，直到自己東山再起。老爸不大樂意接收他，不過老媽下樓之后跟蓋瑞叔叔說，他愛住多久就住多久。不過等老媽看到停在車道上的搬家貨車后，她跟蓋瑞叔叔說，我們家里實在沒地方放這些家具了。Uncle Gary told Dad he needs a place to stay until he can get on his feet again. Dad didnt seem too happy about that， but by them Mom was downstairs， and she told Uncle Gary he can stay as long as he needs. But when Mom saw the moving van in the driveway， she told Uncle Gary we didnt really have any room in our house for extra furniture.

蓋瑞叔叔讓老媽放一百個心，說他一件家具都沒有。搬家貨車里都是一箱一箱的T恤衫，我們花了一整個上午來卸貨，把這些箱子搬到了我們的車庫里。He said she didns need to worry， because he didnt have any furniture. The moving van was filled with boxes of T-shirts， which we spent the rest of the morning loading into our garage.

我看蓋瑞叔叔還是不死心，找一切機會要把T恤衫賣掉。他以3美元賣了一件給羅德里克，我猜羅德里克還以為自己占大便宜了。I dont think Uncle Gary is giving up on selling them， either. He unloaded one on Rodrick for three bucks， and I think Rodrick feels like he got a steal.
