I was just thinking, I've loved that little house for years.

我在想我喜欢那座房子这么多年
And the Braces are the only really suitable people I've ever found for it.

布雷斯家是我找的唯一真正适合的人家
Really nice, congenial people, I mean.

非常好非常随和的人家
Well, except for the Wheelers, you mean.

你是说除了惠勒家之外吗
I was very fond of the Wheelers.

我曾经非常喜欢惠勒一家
They were a bit whimsical for my taste. A bit neurotic.

我只是感觉他们有点古怪有点神经质
I never stressed it, but they were often

我从没说过这个但是他们总是
Very trying people to deal with, in many ways.

在有些方面上很难相处
And actually, the main reason that the little house was so hard to sell

实际上那所小房子之所以这么难卖
Was because they let it depreciate so dreadfully.

就是因为他们太不好好爱护这房子了
Warped window frames, wet cellar, crayon marks all over the walls,

变形的窗框潮湿的地窖满墙的蜡笔画
