They and I

Category: Author:杰罗米·K·杰罗米 Jerome Klapka Jerome 

“It is not a large house,” I said.  “We don’t want a large house.  Two spare bedrooms, and the little three-cornered place you see marked there on the plan, next to the bathroom, and which will just do for a bachelor, will be all we shall require—at all events, for the present.
