L49-1: The ideal servant
It is a good thing my aunt Harriet died years ago. If she were alive today she would not be able to air her views on her favourite topic of conversation: domestic国内的 servants. Aunt Harriet lived in that leisurely不慌不忙的 age when servants were employed to do housework. She had a huge, rambling country house called 'The Gables'. She was sentimentally多悉善感的 attached to this house, for even though it was far too big for her needs, she persisted in living there long after her husband's death. Before she grew old, Aunt Harriet used to entertain lavishly奢华的. I often visited The Gables when I was a boy. No matter how many guests were present, the great house was always immaculate整洁的. The parquet镶木地板 floors shone发光 like mirrors; highly polished 上光剂silver was displayed in gleaming 发光的glass cabinets陈列柜; even my uncle's huge collection of books was kept miraculously free from dust. Aunt Harriet presided担任主席 over an invisible army of servants that continuously scrubbed擦洗, cleaned, and polished. She always referred to them as 'the shifting population', for they came and went with such frequency that I never even got a chance to learn their names.
