原文

1 pieces of 8 hair 7, just a bit of money, which is 60 Fen minutes of the coin, a penny a penny in the grocery store owner, the vendors and the butcher Lailai hard, every time a hair with the smell of urine, the transaction is a deeply argue about little details. Della counted it three times, one dollar and seven cents, and the second day was christmas.

In addition to flop down on the shabby little couch crying, obviously there is no other way.

D do, but spiritual feeling arise spontaneously, life is cry sniffles and smiles withsniffles predominating.

As the housewife gradually calmed down, lets take a look at the house. A furnished apartment house, rent eight dollars a week. Although it is difficult to describe, but it is really enough to help the word beggar.

There is a mailbox downstairs in the doorway, which no letter, and an electric button from no one finger ring. Moreover, there is a name card, write "James di - Han Lin yang".

"Dillingham" this name is the owner of previous brilliance as a whim added, when he earned thirty dollars a week. Now, his income has shrunk to $twenty, "Dillingham" letters appear blurred, as though they were thinking seriously of a modest and unassuming practical letters D. However, when Mr. James Dillingham Jan, go upstairs, walked into the room upstairs, James de Han Lin - Mrs. Yang is just introduced to you as della is always called him "Kim", and warmly embraced him. Of course, thats the best. Yes, Jim is so lucky!

Della finished her cry to her cheeks with the powder rag. She stood by the window and looked out dully at a backyard in a gray cat walking a gray fence in. Tomorrow is Christmas. She has only one dollar and seven cents to buy a gift for Jim. She spent several months, and worked her way through the effort, and got the result. Twenty dollars a week is not long, so always spending more than budget. Only one yuan and seven gifts for Jim. Her Jim. She spent many a happy hour planning to send him a gift Kexin, a fine and rare and precious gift -- at least some match on all things just to Jim.

There is a wall mirror between the two windows of the room. Maybe youve seen a wall mirror that costs eight dollars a week. A very small and dexterous person who, by observing himself in a series of longitudinal images, may have an approximate concept of his own appearance. Della slim, had mastered the art.

Suddenly, she whirled round the window and stood in front of the wall mirror. Her eyes were sparkling, but in twenty seconds her face lost its luster. She split her hair so fast that she completely scattered it.

Now, James Dillingham young couple each have a special pride. One is Jims gold watch, which was handed down by his grandfather to his father, and his father passed it on to Jiabao, while the other was Dellas hair. If the queen of Sheba lived in the flat across the courtyard, one day Della would have let her hair hang down, dry out the window, to be cast into the shade of the Queens jewels; if his treasures piled up in the basement, Solomon Wang is the gatekeeper, when Jim walked in there, will touch the gold watch. Let the Solomon Wang beard from envy.

At this moment, Dellas hair rippled around her, microwave and downs, shine, like the brown waterfall. Her hair is long and, like a piece of her robe. And then she nervously nervously combed her hair. Hesitated for a minute and stood still while splashed on the worn red carpet one or two drops of tears.

She put on her old brown jacket, wearing old brown hat, eyes remain with tears, the skirt is placed, then out of the door, down the stairs to the street.

She stopped before a sign, and said, "Mrs. Alfonso F Roni, specializing in all kinds of hair."". Della ran up the stairs panting after a pause. The mast, the lady body is too pale, with Sofros stern manner, "the title is irrelevant.

"Are you going to buy my hair?"" Della asked.

"I buy my hair," said madame. "Take off your hat, and let me see the hair."."

The brown falls down rippled.

"Twenty dollars," said Madame, grabbing her hair as she was.

"Give me the money quickly," della said.

Ah, the next two hours, like wings, flew happily past. Forget the hashed metaphor. She was rummaging through the shops to buy gifts for Jim.

She finally found it. It must have been made for Jim. It was never meant for anybody else. She has searched the stores, where there is no such thing, a simple white gold bracelet with a carved. Just like all good things, it is only a matter of length, not a display of decoration. And its worthy of the gold watch. As soon as she saw it she knew that it must belong to all of Jim. It is like Jim himself, quiet and value -- the description applied to both. She bought it for twenty-one dollars, hurried home, leaving only seven cents. The gold watch, the chain, whether on any occasion, Jim can no kuise to look at the time.

Even though the watch was gorgeous, because it used the old belt to represent the chain, he sometimes glanced furtively.

After della came home, her ecstasy became a little cautious and sensible. She lit the gas and the hair pincers to repair for love and generosity to the destruction, it is always a very difficult task, dear friends -- a mammoth task.

Within forty minutes her head was covered with close lying curls that made her look like a schoolboy. She stared at herself in the mirror the old look, carefully and critically according to.

"If Jim looked at me not to kill my words," she automatic speaking, "hell say I look like a Coney Island chorus girl. But what can I do? - well, only one yuan and seven cents. What can I do?"

Seven oclock, she made the coffee, the pan on the hot stove, always do steak.

Jim always goes home on time. Della held the silver chain in her hand and sat near the door on the corner of the table. Then she heard his footsteps on the stairs below, and she lost his face for a moment. She had a habit for the simplest everyday things and pray silently, at the moment, she whispered: "please God, make him think I am still pretty."

The door opened, and Jim stepped in and closed the door. He looked thin and very serious. Poor man, he was only twenty-two years old, and he was burdened with a family! He needs to buy a new coat, not even a glove.

Jim stopped inside the door, as immovable as a setter at the scent of quail. His eyes were fixed on della, and his face made her unable to understand and make her hair stand on end. It was not anger, nor surprise, nor disapproval, nor horror, is not an expression of any she had expected. He just stared at della with his face in his face.

Della wriggled, jumped down from the table and went over to him.

"Jim, dear," she cried, "dont stare at me like that.". I cut off my hair and sold it. Because I didnt give you a present, I couldnt spend christmas. Hair will grow again - you dont mind, do you? Im not going to do that. My hair grows very fast. Say Merry Christmas! Jim, lets be happy. You cant guess what a nice gift I bought you - what a beautiful and delicate gift!"

"Have you cut off your hair?"" Asked Jim slowly, he racked his brains did not seem to realize this obvious fact.

"Cut it off," della said. "Anyway, dont you like me too?" Without long hair, Im still me, right?"

Jim looked at the room curiously four times.

"Did you say your hair was gone?"" He asked, almost idiotic.

"Dont look for it," said della. "Tell you, I sold it - sold it, no!". Its Christmas Eve, nice guy. Treat me well, its for you. "Maybe my hair counts," she said, very softly, "but nobody knows how much I love you.". I do steak, Jim?"

Jim seemed to wake up from a trance and put della in his arms. Now, dont worry, lets take ten seconds to think carefully about something unimportant from another angle. The rent is $eight a week, or $one million - whats the difference? A mathematician or a wit will give you the wrong answer. Maggie brings precious gifts, but its missing that thing. This obscure statement will be explained later.

Jim took a small bag out of his coat pocket and threw it on the table.

"Dont make any mistake for me, Del," he said, "no matter Haircut or a shave or a shampoo, I think there what can reduce a little bit of love for my wife. However, as long as you open the package you will see why you had me reckless."

The white fingers cleverly untied the rope and opened the paper bag. And then there was a scream of rapture, oops! Suddenly became a female neurotic tears and crying, in urgent need of the owner of all the way to comfort.

Or because the combs -- the set of combs on the table, side and back, everything. It was a long time ago that Della had seen and envied something in a window in broadway. These beautiful combs, pure tortoiseshell, xiangzhuo jewelry -- just the color of her lost hair match. She knew that the comb was too expensive, and she only admired it, but never thought of it. Now, all this belongs to her, but the beautiful long hair that has the qualifications to wear this coveted ornament has disappeared.

However, she still hairbrush to her chest, took a moment to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "my hair grows so fast, Jim!"

Then, she looked like a scalded cat jumped up and cried, "oh! Oh!"

Jim hasnt seen his beautiful gift yet. She can scarcely wait to open palm, stretched out in front of him, the dull precious metal seemed so bright.

Is it beautiful, Jim? I searched all over the city to find it. Now, you can watch it one hundred times a day. Give me the watch, and Ill see what it looks like on the watch."

Kim instead of obeying, but fell on the couch, his hands under his head and smiled.

"Del," he said, "lets put aside the Christmas gifts and save it for a while. They are so good that they are not suitable for use at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. Now, you do steak."

As you all know, Maggie is a clever, intelligent person who brings gifts to Jesus who is born in a manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas gifts. Because they are smart people, there is no doubt that their gifts are smart gifts, and if you meet two things exactly the same, you may also have the right to exchange. Here, I have clumsily introduced you to two silly children living in an apartment suite, not surprisingly, they have unwisely sacrificed their most precious things for each other. But lets say the last word to the wise today, among all the gifts, the two are the wisest. Among all the gifts and gifts received, the two of them are the wisest. Wherever they are, theyre the smartest people.

They are sages. .

1塊8毛7，就這麼些錢，其中六毛是一分一分的銅板，一個子兒一個子兒在雜貨店老闆、菜販子和肉店老闆那兒硬賴來的，每次鬧得臉發臊，深感這種掂斤播兩的交易實在丟人現眼。德拉反覆數了三次，還是一元八角七，而第二天就是聖誕節了。

除了撲倒在那破舊的小睡椅上哭嚎之外，顯然別無他途。

德拉這樣做了，可精神上的感慨油然而生，生活就是哭泣、抽噎和微笑，尤以抽噎佔統治地位。

當這位家庭主婦逐漸平靜下來之際，讓我們看看這個家吧。一套帶傢俱的公寓房子，每週房租八美元。儘管難以用筆墨形容，可它真正夠得上乞丐幫這個詞兒。

樓下的門道里有個信箱，可從來沒有裝過信，還有一個電鈕，也從沒有人的手指按響過電鈴。而且，那兒還有一張名片，上寫着“傑姆斯·狄林漢·楊先生”。

“迪林厄姆”這個名號是主人先前春風得意之際，一時興起加上去的，那時候他每星期掙三十美元。現在，他的收入縮減到二十美元，“迪林厄姆”的字母也顯得模糊不清，似乎它們正嚴肅地思忖着是否縮寫成謙遜而又講求實際的字母D。不過，每當傑姆斯·狄林漢·楊先生，回家上樓，走進樓上的房間時，傑姆斯·狄林漢·楊太太，就是剛介紹給諸位的德拉，總是把他稱作“吉姆”，而且熱烈地擁抱他。那當然是再好不過的了。是呀，吉姆是多好的運氣呀！

德拉哭完之後，往面頰上抹了抹粉，她站在窗前，癡癡地瞅着灰濛濛的後院裏一隻灰白色的貓正行走在灰白色的籬笆上。明天就是聖誕節，她只有一元八角七給吉姆買一份禮物。她花去好幾個月的時間，用了最大的努力一分一分地攢積下來，才得了這樣一個結果。一週二十美元實在經不起花，支出大於預算，總是如此。只有一元八角七給吉姆買禮物，她的吉姆啊。她花費了多少幸福的時日籌劃着要送他一件可心的禮物，一件精緻、珍奇、貴重的禮物——至少應有點兒配得上吉姆所有的東西才成啊。

房間的兩扇窗子之間有一面壁鏡。也許你見過每週房租八美元的公寓壁鏡吧。一個非常瘦小而靈巧的人，從觀察自己在一連串的縱條影象中，可能會對自己的容貌得到一個大致精確的概念。德拉身材苗條，已精通了這門子藝術。

突然，她從視窗旋風般地轉過身來，站在壁鏡前面。她兩眼晶瑩透亮，但二十秒鐘之內她的面色失去了光彩。她急速地拆散頭髮，使之完全潑散開來。

現在，詹姆斯·迪林厄姆·楊夫婦倆各有一件特別引以自豪的東西。一件是吉姆的金錶，是他祖父傳給父親，父親又傳給他的傳家寶；另一件則是德拉的秀髮。如果示巴女王①也住在天井對面的公寓裏，總有一天德拉會把頭髮披散下來，露出窗外晾乾，使那女王的珍珠寶貝黯然失色；如果地下室堆滿金銀財寶、所羅門王又是守門人的話，每當吉姆路過那兒，準會摸出金錶，好讓那所羅門王忌妒得吹鬍子瞪眼睛。

此時此刻，德拉的秀髮潑撒在她的周圍，微波起伏，閃耀光芒，有如那褐色的瀑布。她的美髮長及膝下，彷彿是她的一件長袍。接着，她又神經質地趕緊把頭髮梳好。躊躇了一分鐘，一動不動地立在那兒，破舊的紅地毯上濺落了一、兩滴眼淚。

她穿上那件褐色的舊外衣，戴上褐色的舊帽子，眼睛裏殘留着晶瑩的淚花，裙子一擺，便飄出房門，下樓來到街上。

她走到一塊招牌前停下來，上寫着：“索弗羅妮夫人——專營各式頭髮”。德拉奔上樓梯，氣喘吁吁地定了定神。那位夫人身軀肥大，過於蒼白，冷若冰霜，同“索弗羅妮”的雅號簡直牛頭不對馬嘴。

“你要買我的頭髮嗎？”德拉問。

“我買頭髮，”夫人說。“揭掉帽子，讓我看看發樣。”

那褐色的瀑布潑撒了下來。

“二十美元，”夫人一邊說，一邊內行似地抓起頭髮。

“快給我錢，”德拉說。

呵，接着而至的兩個小時猶如長了翅膀，愉快地飛掠而過。請不用理會這胡謅的比喻。她正在徹底搜尋各家店鋪，爲吉姆買禮物。

她終於找到了，那準是專爲吉姆特製的，決非爲別人。她找遍了各家商店，哪兒也沒有這樣的東西，一條樸素的白金錶鏈，鏤刻着花紋。正如一切優質東西那樣，它只以貨色論長短，不以裝潢來炫耀。而且它正配得上那隻金錶。她一見這條錶鏈，就知道一定屬於吉姆所有。它就像吉姆本人，文靜而有價值，這一形容對兩者都恰如其份。她花去二十一美元買下了，匆匆趕回家，只剩下八角七分錢。金錶匹配這條鏈子，無論在任何場合，吉姆都可以毫無愧色地看時間了。

儘管這隻表華麗珍貴，因爲用的是舊皮帶取代表鏈，他有時只偷偷地瞥上一眼。

德拉回家之後，她的狂喜有點兒變得審慎和理智了。她找出燙髮鐵鉗，點燃煤氣，着手修補因愛情加慷慨所造成的破壞，這永遠是件極其艱鉅的任務，親愛的朋友們，簡直是件了不起的任務呵。

不出四十分鐘，她的頭上佈滿了緊貼頭皮的一綹綹小卷發，使她活像個逃學的小男孩。她在鏡子里老盯着自己瞧，小心地、苛刻地照來照去。

“假如吉姆看我一眼不把我宰掉的話，”她自言自語，“他定會說我像個科尼島上合唱隊的賣唱姑娘。但是我能怎麼辦呢？唉，只有一元八角七，我能幹什麼呢？”

七點鐘，她煮好了咖啡，把煎鍋置於熱爐上，隨時都可做肉排。

吉姆一貫準時回家。德拉將錶鏈對疊握在手心，坐在離他一貫進門最近的桌子角上。接着，她聽見下面樓梯上響起了他的'腳步聲，她緊張得臉色失去了一會兒血色。她習慣於爲了最簡單的日常事物而默默祈禱，此刻，她悄聲道：“求求上帝，讓他覺得我還是漂亮的吧。”

門開了，吉姆步入，隨手關上了門。他顯得瘦削而又非常嚴肅。可憐的人兒，他才二十二歲，就挑起了家庭重擔！他需要買件新大衣，連手套也沒有呀。

吉姆站在屋裏的門口邊，紋絲不動地好像獵犬嗅到了鵪鶉的氣味似的。他的兩眼固定在德拉身上，其神情使她無法理解，令她毛骨悚然。既不是憤怒，也不是驚訝，又不是不滿，更不是嫌惡，根本不是她所預料的任何一種神情。他僅僅是面帶這種神情死死地盯着德拉。

德拉一扭腰，從桌上跳了下來，向他走過去。

“吉姆，親愛的，”她喊道，“別那樣盯着我。我把頭髮剪掉賣了，因爲不送你一件禮物，我無法過聖誕節。頭髮會再長起來——你不會介意，是嗎？我非這麼做不可。我的頭髮長得快極了。說‘恭賀聖誕’吧！吉姆，讓我們快快樂樂的。你肯定猜不着我給你買了一件多麼好的——多麼美麗精緻的禮物啊！”

“你已經把頭髮剪掉了？”吉姆吃力地問道，似乎他絞盡腦汁也沒弄明白這明擺着的事實。

“剪掉賣了，”德拉說。“不管怎麼說，你不也同樣喜歡我嗎？沒了長髮，我還是我嘛，對嗎？”

吉姆古怪地四下望望這房間。

“你說你的頭髮沒有了嗎？”他差不多是白癡似地問道。

“別找啦，”德拉說。“告訴你，我已經賣了——賣掉了，沒有啦。這是聖誕前夜，好人兒。好好待我，這是爲了你呀。也許我的頭髮數得清，”突然她特別溫柔地接下去，“可誰也數不清我對你的恩愛啊。我做肉排嗎，吉姆？”

吉姆好像從恍惚之中醒來，把德拉緊緊地摟在懷裏。現在，彆着急，先讓我們花個十秒鐘從另一角度審慎地思索一下某些無關緊要的事。房租每週八美元，或者一百萬美元，那有什麼差別呢？數學家或才子會給你錯誤的答案。麥琪帶來了寶貴的禮物，但就是缺少了那件東西。這句晦澀的話，下文將有所交待。

吉姆從大衣口袋裏掏出一個小包，扔在桌上。

“別對我產生誤會，德爾，”他說道，“無論剪髮、修面，還是洗頭，我以爲世上沒有什麼東西能減低一點點對我妻子的愛情。不過，你只要開啟那包東西，就會明白剛纔爲什麼使我楞頭楞腦了。”

白皙的手指靈巧地解開繩子，開啟紙包。緊接着是欣喜若狂的尖叫，哎呀！突然變成了女性神經質的淚水和哭泣，急需男主人千方百計的慰藉。

還是因爲擺在桌上的梳子，全套梳子，包括兩鬢用的，後面的，樣樣俱全。那是很久以前德拉在百老匯的一個櫥窗裏見過並羨慕得要死的東西。這些美妙的髮梳，純玳瑁做的，邊上鑲着珠寶，其色彩正好同她失去的美髮相匹配。她明白，這套梳子實在太昂貴，對此，她僅僅是羨慕渴望，但從未想到過據爲己有。現在，這一切居然屬於她了，可惜那有資格佩戴這垂涎已久的裝飾品的美麗長髮已無影無蹤了。

不過，她依然把髮梳摟在胸前，過了好一陣子才擡起淚水迷濛的雙眼，微笑着說：“我的頭髮長得飛快，吉姆！”

隨後，德拉活像一隻被燙傷的小貓跳了起來，叫道，“喔！喔！”

吉姆還沒有瞧見他的美麗的禮物哩。她急不可耐地把手掌攤開，伸到他面前，那沒有知覺的貴重金屬似乎閃現着她的歡快和熱忱。

“漂亮嗎，吉姆？我搜遍了全城才找到了它。現在，你每天可以看一百次時間了。把表給我，我要看看它配在表上的樣子。”

吉姆非但不按她的吩咐行事，反而倒在睡椅上，兩手枕在頭下，微微發笑。

“德爾，”他說，“讓我們把聖誕禮物放在一邊，儲存一會兒吧。它們實在太好了，目前尚不宜用。我賣掉金錶，換錢爲你買了髮梳。現在，你做肉排吧。”

正如諸位所知，麥琪是聰明人，聰明絕頂的人，他們把禮物帶來送給出生在馬槽裏的耶穌。他們發明送聖誕禮物這玩藝兒。由於他們是聰明人，毫無疑問，他們的禮物也是聰明的禮物，如果碰上兩樣東西完全一樣，可能還具有交換的權利。在這兒，我已經笨拙地給你們介紹了住公寓套間的兩個傻孩子不足爲奇的平淡故事，他們極不明智地爲了對方而犧牲了他們家最最寶貴的東西。不過，讓我們對現今的聰明人說最後一句話，在一切饋贈禮品的人當中，那兩個人是最聰明的。在一切饋贈又接收禮品的人當中，像他們兩個這樣的人也是最聰明的。無論在任何地方，他們都是最聰明的人。

他們就是聖賢。
