Kill him and I'll tell you. If I don't keep my word, you can kill me too. There are thousands of pesetas. Kill him, idiot!
|
Kill him.
|
That will teach you not to bother me any more, you son of a bitch.
|
Not in that way; you're always looking for company.
|
Why do you say that? Perhaps the young girl is a bit jealous.
|
What's the matter with you?
|
Nothing.
|
Why the bad temper?
|
It's Viridiana. She's getting on my nerves.
|
She's mad.
|
No, not mad at all: she's rotten with religion.
|
Let her do what she wants. She doesn't bother us in any way. She minds her business and we ...
|
So, Ramona!
|
Run and get something to mop it up with, quickly.
|
If you wake first, wake me up.
|
What are you going to do?
|
What I do every day, but I want to do it earlier.
|
You're happy, aren't you!
|
Shouldn't I be? You, on the other hand ...
|
I'm bored. I'm alone all day and I don't know what to do.
|
You should have enough to do in this house ... Come here and listen to this.
|
What are you thinking about?
|
That your cousin is more to your taste.
|
She isn't my cousin.
|
It doesn't make any difference what she is: you like her.
|
How in hell does it wind up?
|
I think I'd better go tomorrow.
|
Don't be a fool! Why rush away from something which couldn't happen?
|
You see how much you like her?
|
That's life. Some people are brought together, others are separated. What can we do, if that's the way it happens?
|
Me?
|
Come on, miss. Just so the Virgin can be really pretty.
|
It won't take but a minute. It's a votive offering for a lady who was cured just when she was dying of fever. Our Lady of the Helpless granted her a favor.
|
Do you have great devotion for the Virgin?
|
It's very good.
|
Thank you; but it's missing something.
|
That doesn't matter; I like it.
|
My God, what have you done to him!
|
He was asking for it.
|
But why? Why?
|
Ramona! Ramona!
|
Quiet, my dove. Quiet, or I'll ...
|
How much is that?
|
Fifteen yards.
|
That's fifteen by seven?
|
That's it.
|
Good.
|
Have you thought of what you want planted yet?
|
The fields have been left so long; with a good manuring anything will grow.
|
It's for wheat. We've always grown maize in the strip above the vegetables.
|
And in the vegetable plot?
|
That's good land.
|
Hold on, Ramon! Is there time to make another trip?
|
No, sir, it's nearly six o'clock. Okay, let's get a move on! When are you leaving?
|
Tonight, but I'll be back tomorrow afternoon.
|
What will the lady say?
|
She won't even know.
|
If everybody agrees, but to make a roast takes four hours.
|
Is it all right?
|
Yes.
|
Enedina's going to take a picture. So we'll have a souvenir.
|
They told us you'd be back tomorrow ...
|
I didn't want to do it, Don Jorge. They made me ...
|
Leave me now. You can go to bed.
|
Yes, sir. Good night.
|
Why don't you ask her to stay on for a few days?
|
I have asked her but she's ungrateful. Sometimes I feel like hitting her. When I talk to her about the convent, she turns to stone.
|
Sit down, I'm going to need your help.
|
What's the matter?
|
Sit down, woman, sit down. You like me, don't you?
|
I'd be really ungrateful, if I didn't like you, sir; you took me and my little girl in when I didn't know where to turn.
|
Yes, yes, but there's no need to bring that up. How far are you prepared to help me?
|
Just say the word, sir, and I'll do anything.
|
Why don't you speak to her, Ramona? Women are good at that sort of thing. Think of something that will make her stay a few more days. You are kind, Ramona! Speak to her. I know I don't need to offer you anything, but, if you're successful in this, I'll not forget you or your little girl.
|
But sir, what can I say to her? And why should she pay any attention to what a servant tells her?
|
The way she looked at me, Ramona! She hates me now. I think I've made a great mistake. She's going away, she's going away and nothing will stop her.
|
Speak to her again. Explain everything to her seriously.
|
What for? She'll only look at me that way again ... I couldn't. You go. Perhaps she'll listen to you. Try to convince her.
|
But what can I say to her, sir?
|
Tell her I lied, that I didn't take advantage of her.
|
You believe me, don't you?
|
Yes, sir.
|
Don't lie. You don't believe me either.
|
It's only that ... It's all very odd, sir.
|
Yes, Uncle. How are you?
|
I'm well ... The bus was late, wasn't it? ... What was the journey like?
|
Excellent. What a charming, peaceful place, Uncle.
|
You'll think you're still at the convent.
|
How long are you staying?
|
A very short while, Uncle. I've been given permission to stay only a few days.
|
Was that difficult to get?
|
No. Mother Superior told me to come.
|
Did you have so little interest in seeing me?
|
To tell you the truth, not very much. I cannot lie. I respect you and I am grateful to you because I owe you everything materially, but otherwise ...
|
You have no feelings toward ...
|
No.
|
You've been neglecting the farm, Uncle.
|
In twenty years the grass has invaded everything. There are spiders all over the house except on the first floor. I hardly ever go out.
|
Come down here, you scamp.
|
Who is she?
