在台湾山区,一个美丽的温泉度假村里,秋天的色彩点缀着周围。
In the mountains of Taiwan, within a beautiful hot spring resort, the colors of autumn decorated the surroundings.
温泉的蒸汽在空气中升起,与家人在中秋节聚会时的热闹交谈相映成趣。
The steam from the hot springs rose into the air, perfectly complementing the lively conversations of family gatherings during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
这一天,魏、夏和梁聚在一起,参加一个热闹的家族聚会。
On this day, Wei, Xia, and Liang gathered together for a lively family reunion.
魏是最大的表哥,他总是想保持家庭和谐,但其实他想一个人安静地享受温泉。
Wei was the eldest cousin, always keen on maintaining family harmony, though in truth he wished to enjoy the hot springs quietly by himself.
夏是一个充满竞争精神的表妹,希望通过赢得家庭游戏来让长辈注意自己。
Xia was a competitive spirited cousin, hoping to gain the elders' attention by winning family games.
梁是他们的叔叔,他是调解员、裁判,有时也参与游戏,只希望所有人都能开心。
Liang was their uncle, acting as the mediator, referee, and sometimes participant in the games, simply wanting everyone to be happy.
家人围坐在一起,决定来一场猜字游戏。
The family sat together and decided to play a guessing game.
然而,这个游戏很快变得混乱,大家对规则的理解完全不同,导致争吵不断,误解连连。
However, the game soon turned chaotic, with each person having a completely different understanding of the rules, leading to constant arguments and continual misunderstandings.
“来吧,魏,”夏催促道,“我们一起组队。
“Come on, Wei, ” Xia urged, “let’s team up.
我一定能带你赢!
I’m sure we can win!” Wei nodded reluctantly.
”魏无奈点头。
He was thinking to himself: If only the game could end quickly, then I could go enjoy the hot springs.
他心里盘算着:如果能让游戏快点结束,我就能去泡温泉。
With this in mind, he and Xia became partners.
他心里想着,于是他和夏成了搭档。
The game proceeded with intense excitement.
游戏进行得紧张激烈。
Xia, eager for victory, waved her arms vigorously.
夏为了胜利而使劲挥舞着手臂,“这个字是——”就在关键时刻,魏故意做错了动作,假装想到了错误的词。
“This word is—” At the crucial moment, Wei deliberately made the wrong move, pretending to have thought of the wrong word.
这一下,屋子里爆发出了意想不到的笑声,每个人都因为游戏的荒唐而开怀大笑。
This action caused an unexpected burst of laughter in the room, with everyone laughing heartily at the absurdity of the game.
最后,经过这一场欢乐的混乱,家人们决定暂时放下争执,共同去温泉。
In the end, after this joyful chaos, the family decided to temporarily set aside their disputes and head to the hot springs together.
魏发现,即使是在混乱中的团聚,也能找到快乐。
Wei found that even amidst the chaotic reunion, happiness could be found.
他意识到,原来和家人的在一起,也是一种放松。
He realized that being with family was also a form of relaxation.
在温暖的泉水中,家人的笑声中和着秋风,变成了最动听的旋律。
In the warm spring water, the sound of the family's laughter blended with the autumn breeze, becoming the most melodious tune.
魏闭上了眼睛,感受着这一刻的宁静与温馨。
Wei closed his eyes, savoring the peace and warmth of this moment.
