唐頓莊園 11 我們將成為同盟者
Violet: Unfortunately, now...
可是不幸的是，現(xiàn)在......
Cora: Now a complete unknown man has the right to pocket my money along with the rest ofthe swag!
一個(gè)陌生人倒有權(quán)拿走我的錢和其余的家產(chǎn)。
Violet: The problem is——saving your dowry would break up the estate.
問題是保住你的財(cái)產(chǎn)，就會(huì)丟掉這莊園。
It would be the ruin of everything Robert's given his life to.
那Robert一生的心血就全毀了。
Cora: And he knows this?
他清楚這些嗎?
Violet: Well, if he doesn't, he will.
他若不知，以后便會(huì)明白。
Cora: Then there's no answer.
那還是沒有辦法。
Violet: Yes, there is, and it's a simple one. The entail must be smashed in its entirety andMary, recognised as heiress of all.
有辦法，很簡(jiǎn)單——打破限定繼承，徹底取消，Mary繼承全部家產(chǎn)。
Cora: There's nothing we can do about the title.
爵位還是無法保住。
Violet: No, she can't have the title. But she can have your money and the estate.
沒錯(cuò)，她不能繼承爵位，但她會(huì)保住你的錢，還有這個(gè)莊園。
Violet: I didn't run Downton for 30 years to see it go, lock, stock and barrel to a stranger fromGod knows where.
我苦心經(jīng)營(yíng)唐頓30年，可不是為了讓不知打哪兒鉆出來的人一鍋端。
Cora: Are we to be friends, then?
那我們是朋友了?
Violet: We are allies, my dear. which can be a good deal more effective.
親愛的，我們是同盟，同盟辦事效率更高。
