the landlord came in and asked
“Are you sure you do not rent the house any more?” He kept silent and she only shook her head. They were going to divorce
so it was obvious that they would not continue renting the house any more. 她和他默默地對坐著。房東進來問：“妳們真的不租了嗎？”他沈默不語，她搖了搖頭，她和他就要離婚了，還需要租房嗎？
Then the landlord began examining the house. After looking around
the landlord screamed
“Damn God! See how you have ruined my house? The walls are full of nails! How could I rent the house to others?”房東開始驗收房子，在房間裏轉了壹圈後，突然尖叫起來：“妳們把我家弄成什麽樣子了，墻上到處是鐵釘，還讓我怎麽繼續出租啊！”
He said
“The room is too *** all and can hardly acmodate all of our things. So we could only hang them on the walls。” The landlord did not listen to him and turned around up to the floor。他不得不開口了：“房間太小了，東西多了放不下，只能掛在墻上。”房東不聽他說，轉身“噔噔噔”上了樓。
She began looking around her familiar room. Four Years ago
she became his bride here. On the night of their marriage
he felt deeply guilty to her
saying
“I feel so sorry to you for having you live in this *** all room. In the future I will earn a lot of money to buy our own house。”她打量著熟悉的家。四年前，她在這裏做了他的新娘。新婚那晚，他對她充滿了愧疚：“委屈妳了，以後咱壹定掙錢買大房子。”
The room was only 13 square meters with o nails on the wall next to the door
one for her to hang her bag and the other for hanging umbrellas. At that time
she threw all her stuff such as her bag and umbrella on the floor once she entered the room
staring at the whole mess and feeling terribly upset。房間只有13平方米，門邊那兩顆鐵釘，壹顆是用來給她掛包的，另壹顆是用來掛雨傘的。那會兒，她壹進門就把包啊傘啊丟在地上，然後看到滿地亂七八糟的東西開始心煩。
There were three nails on the left wall
on which hung his clothes yesterday. After he lived in the room
he removed all the clothes boxes and bought her a desk in the spared room because he knew she loved writing and drawing. 左邊的墻上有三顆鐵釘，昨天那三顆釘子上面還都掛滿了衣服。他住進來後就把裝衣服的箱子給撤走了，騰出來的空間，他給她加了壹張寫字臺，因為她平時喜歡寫寫畫畫。
There were four nails on the right wall that were used to fix their wedding photo frame. But now there were only four nails without the frame. She still remembered he got hurt on his fingers when trying to drive the nails home. It was her who pushed him to receive an injection against tetanus in the hospital. 右邊的墻上有四顆鐵釘，是用來固定他們的婚紗照的。現在上面卻只剩四顆孤零零的鐵釘。她記得，釘這四顆鐵釘的時候，他的手不小心受傷了，是她逼著他去醫院打了預防破傷風的針。The landlord took a toolkit down and tried to pry the nails out when groaning at the same time. After the nails were removed
the walls were left with numerous holes. All of a sudden
she felt harshly heartbroken as if her heart was pierced through those holes and bleeding nonstop。房東從樓上拿了壹把工具下來，壹邊撬鐵釘壹邊埋怨。鐵釘被壹個個撬下來，墻上留下了壹個個洞。她的心裏突然難受起來，仿佛那些洞是她的心，正汩汩地往外流血。
She sprang from the seat and exclaimed
“Stop prying the nails! We will continue renting the house and will only move away after we buy our own!” He looked at her with great surprise
and then turned round
tearing over his face. 她突然跳起來：“不要撬了，我們還要繼續租，等買了新房再搬。”他驚訝地看著她，轉過身去，淚流滿面。
She finally came to understand that marriage was like a wall and that all quarrels
“cold wars” and suspicions were like the nails on the wall. When all the nails were removed
only a wall with numerous holes would be left. But if all the nails were still in their own places
the wall was still intact and reliable. But in the past
what she saw was only those provoking nails。她終於明白，婚姻就像壹堵墻。爭吵、冷戰、猜疑都爭著往上面釘上壹個個鐵釘，當鐵釘全部撤去，留下的只是千瘡百孔的墻。但是只要鐵釘還牢牢地在上面，這堵墻就是完整的，讓人可以安心依靠。而從前，她卻只看見那些刺眼的鐵釘。
They hung all the things back to the wall. He asked her
“Are you really willing to lead a tough life with me?” She patted
away the ashes on hands and looked at the walls with loads of stuff on them satisfactorily
saying
“Yes! For me
it is not a suffering to live。她和他把該掛在墻上的又都掛了上去。他問：“妳真的願意跟著我繼續受苦嗎？”她拍拍手上的灰，滿意地看著掛滿東西的墻說： “不，這是老天給我幸福的機會。”
