An Old Church Bell

老旧教堂的钟

从前，德国有一个小镇，那里刺槐花恣意盛开，到了秋天的时候苹果和梨挂满枝头。这个小镇虽然很美但是很贫穷。
On one day of late autumn, when the grape vine leaves were dried with a red color, it rained heavily, and there was a cold strong wind. It was not good news for the poor people in this town. As it got dark outside, the small old houses got darker.

His mother was very happy, because the church bell seemed to deliver her happy news to the whole town.

The old bell took a place in a part of the boy's memory. Soon, he grew up as a red-haired, freckled and tall young man. His eyes were as clear as a lake, and luckily, he could go to a military academy, where most of the students were aristocrats, without paying any tuition.
就这样，老钟在男孩的记忆中留下了难以磨灭的印象。很快，他长成人，变成了一个红头发，满脸雀斑，高个子的年轻人。他的眼睛像湖水一样清澈。幸运的是，他被一个军事学院录取了，那里的大部分学生都是不用支付任何学费的贵族。
