The Very Young Magistrate 3 한국어 원문 그런데 아이가 처음 본 과거 시험에 1등으로 붙었어요. 열다섯 살짜리 아이가 1등을 했으니 모두들 놀라서 입을 쩍 벌렸어요. 그런데 새 사또를 본 낮은 벼슬아치들이 쑤군거렸지요. "아니, 자식 같은 애를 사또로 모시란 말이야?" "에잉, 저렇게 어린애가 뭘 안다고 사또를 하겠나?" 벼슬아치들은 기분이 좋지 않았어요. 그래서 모이기만 하면 사또 흉을 보았어요. 어떤 때는 인사는커녕 고개를 빳빳하게 들고 지나갔지요. 영어 번역문 The child came 1st on the first state examination he had ever taken. Everyone was surprised that a child of 15 years old would be 1st place. But, the government officials talked constantly behind the new district magistrate's back. "What, how are we supposed to serve a 15 year old child as our district magistrate?" "What would that young child know at that age?" The government officials were not happy. Every time they met, they would talk bad about the new district magistrate. Sometimes when the child would pass by, they would lift their heads even higher instead of bowing low. |
