从前，有一只叫瑞比的小猫，她邀请一只叫公爵夫人的小狗来吃茶点。
读书笔记
是否公开“尽早过来，我亲爱的公爵夫人，”瑞比的信中这么写道，“我们会享用一些非常非常好的东西。我正在用一个带粉色花边的馅饼盘烘烤它哦。你从来都没吃过这么好吃的东西！你会把它全都吃掉的。而我会吃松饼，亲爱的公爵夫人。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人读了这封信，并写了回信：“我非常开心受到邀请，我会在四点一刻拜访。但是，真是巧了，我本来是正要邀请你来我这里吃晚饭的，我亲爱的瑞比，我想请你吃一些最最美味的东西。”
读书笔记
是否公开“我会准时到达的，我亲爱的瑞比，”公爵夫人写道。在信的结尾，她又加了一句，“我希望不是老鼠肉吧？”不过，她又觉得这样写似乎显得不太礼貌，所以，她便把“不是老鼠肉吧”给划掉了，改成了“我希望天气会很好”，然后将信交给了邮差。但是，她一直在琢磨瑞比的馅饼，所以，便将瑞比的信读了一遍又一遍。
读书笔记
是否公开“我真担心死了，万一是老鼠肉呢！”公爵夫人自言自语道，“我真的真的吃不下老鼠肉馅饼。而我却不得不吃，因为这是一次聚会。我本来要烤牛肉和火腿馅饼的。一个粉边的白色馅饼盘子！我的盘子也是这样的，和瑞比的一样，都是在塔比莎·特迟特的店里买的。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人走进她的食品储藏室，从架子上拿下馅饼，看了又看，说道：“一切都准备好了，就差放进烤箱里了。多么可爱的馅饼脆皮啊，我把原料放在了一个小的馅饼模子里面，这样就能保持脆皮的形状，我还用叉子在馅饼中间戳了一个洞，以便排出蒸汽——啊，我真希望能够吃我自己的馅饼啊，而不是用老鼠肉做的馅饼。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人思来想去，于是又把瑞比的信读了一遍：
读书笔记
是否公开“一个带粉边的白色馅饼盘——你会把它整个吃光的。‘你’是指我——那么，瑞比自己是不会尝那个馅饼了？一个粉边的白色馅饼盘！瑞比肯定会去外面买松饼……啊，真是个好主意！为什么我不趁瑞比不在的时候赶过去，把我的馅饼放进瑞比的烤箱里面呢？”公爵夫人非常满意自己的聪明。
读书笔记
是否公开同时，瑞比接到了公爵夫人的回信，一得知小狗能来赴约，她便把她的馅饼放到了烤箱里。她有两个烤箱，摞在一起，一个上，一个下。她的烤箱上有些把手和手柄都是装饰性的，并不能打开烤箱。瑞比把馅饼放到了下面的那个烤箱里，那个烤箱的门很难开。
读书笔记
是否公开“上面的这个烤箱烤东西时火太急了。”瑞比对自己说，“这是一个用最细嫩的老鼠肉混合培根做成的馅饼，我把所有骨头都去掉了，上一次我宴请公爵夫人的时候，她差一点儿被鱼骨头给卡得窒息了。她吃东西有点儿快——又总是大口大口地吃。但她是一只非常有教养又文雅的小狗，如果选朋友，她相比于塔比莎·特迟特表姐来说，简直是好得太多了。”
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比又加了一些煤，并清理了炉边。然后她带着一个水罐到了井边打水，灌满水壶。接着，她开始整理房间——这个房间既用作客厅也用作厨房。她在前门把垫子抖了抖，又放平整，炉前地毯是一块兔皮的。她擦拭了时钟和壁炉台上的摆设，又把桌椅都擦得光可鉴人。
读书笔记
是否公开然后，她又铺开一张干净的白色桌布，从壁炉旁的壁橱中拿出了她最好的一套瓷器摆好。那茶杯是白色的，上面有粉色玫瑰的花纹，而餐盘则是蓝白相间的。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比摆放好桌子之后，便带上一个罐子和一个蓝白相间的盘子，穿过田野，去附近的农场，取牛奶和黄油。回来之后，她看了看下面的烤箱，里面的馅饼看上去非常不错。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比围上围巾，戴上小帽，提上篮子，又出门了，她要去村子里的商店买一包茶叶、一磅方糖和一瓶果酱。
读书笔记
是否公开而就在这时，公爵夫人离开了她在村子另一头的家。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比在街上碰到了公爵夫人，看到她也提着篮子，上面盖着一块布。她们彼此弓身致意，但没有说话，因为她们就要聚会了。
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人一走过街角，离开瑞比的视线，便跑了起来——直奔瑞比的家！
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比去了商店，买了需要的东西，和塔比莎·特迟特表姐开心地闲聊了几句，然后才离开。
读书笔记
是否公开后来，塔比莎表姐提起这件事时，非常不屑。
读书笔记
是否公开“请一只小狗！就好像索里这一带没有猫一样！居然准备了一个馅饼在下午茶时吃！真想得出来！”塔比莎·特迟特表姐说。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比又去了蒂莫西面包房买了松饼，然后才回家。就在她从前门进去的时候，后面的走廊传来了窸窸窣窣的声音。
读书笔记
是否公开“我相信这不是喜鹊捣的乱，而且勺子也都锁起来了。”瑞比说。不过，没发现有人在那儿。瑞比用了些力气打开下面的烤箱门，把馅饼翻了一面。已经开始闻到烤鼠肉散发出的阵阵诱人的香气了。
读书笔记
是否公开而就在这时，公爵夫人从后门溜了出去。“真奇怪，我把我的馅饼放到烤箱里时，并没有看到瑞比的馅饼呀。四处都找不到，我可是把整个房子都找了一遍了。我把馅饼放到了上面那个漂亮的热烤箱里。但转不动其他的把手，那些应该都是样子货。”公爵夫人说，“但我真希望能够拿走那个用老鼠肉做的馅饼！真不知道瑞比到底把它放哪儿去了，我听到瑞比回来了，不得不从后门跑出来。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人回到家，把她美丽的黑色皮毛梳了好几遍，然后从自家的花园里面采了一束花，作为送给瑞比的礼物，时间就这么过去了，时钟敲了四下，已是四点钟了。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比把自己的家仔细检查了一遍，确认不论是壁橱里还是食品储藏室里面都没有藏着任何人，然后便上楼去换了一条裙子。她穿上一件淡紫色的丝绸长裙，围上一件绣花的平纹细布围裙和一条披肩。
读书笔记
是否公开“真奇怪，”瑞比说，“我不记得自己把抽屉打开了，是有人想要试我的连指手套吗？”她又下楼去，泡了茶，然后把茶壶放在炉架上。接着她又看了看下面的烤箱，馅饼现在已经变成了诱人的焦黄色，热气腾腾的。
读书笔记
是否公开她坐在壁炉前面，等候小狗的来访。“还好我用了下面的那个烤箱。”瑞比说，“上面那个肯定太热了。真奇怪，壁橱的门怎么是开着的呀？难道家里真的有人进来过？”
读书笔记
是否公开四点整，公爵夫人出发去参加聚会。她以自己最快的速度穿过了村子，结果到瑞比家的时候太早了，所以就站在通向瑞比家的小巷子里等了一会儿。
读书笔记
是否公开“瑞比有没有把我的馅饼从烤箱里拿出来呢？”公爵夫人说，“另一个用老鼠做的馅饼到底哪儿去了？”
读书笔记
是否公开四点一刻，准时响起了一声最最文雅的轻轻的敲门声。“瑞比斯通太太在家吗？”公爵夫人站在门廊上问道。
读书笔记
是否公开“快请进！你好吗，我亲爱的公爵夫人？”瑞比叫道，“希望你一切都好啊！”
读书笔记
是否公开“非常好，谢谢，你呢，我亲爱的瑞比？”公爵夫人说，“我给你带了些花来，好香的馅饼味啊！”
读书笔记
是否公开“啊，这花真漂亮啊！对，馅饼是老鼠肉和培根馅的。”
读书笔记
是否公开“先别谈吃的，我亲爱的瑞比，”公爵夫人说，“好漂亮的茶巾啊！……那馅饼翻过面了吗？还在烤箱里吗？”
读书笔记
是否公开“我觉得还需要五分钟才能熟。”瑞比说，“再等一小会儿就行。趁着这工夫，我来倒茶吧！你需要加糖吗，亲爱的公爵夫人？”
读书笔记
是否公开“噢，加，谢谢！我亲爱的瑞比，我能拿一块放在我的鼻子上吗？”
读书笔记
是否公开“当然可以，亲爱的公爵夫人，你的请求实在太有礼貌了！你真是太可爱太可亲了！”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人把糖放在自己的鼻子上，嗅了嗅，说：“馅饼的味道闻起来真好啊！我真喜欢牛肉和火腿——我是说老鼠肉和培根——”慌乱之中，她把糖弄掉了，不得不钻到茶几下面去寻找，所以她并没有看到瑞比拿馅饼的时候打开的是哪一个烤箱。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比把馅饼放在了桌子上，那馅饼散发的香味真能让人口水都流下来。
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人嚼着糖从桌布下面钻了出来，在一把椅子上坐好。
读书笔记
是否公开“我先替你切馅饼，我要吃些松饼和果酱。”瑞比说。
读书笔记
是否公开“你真的更喜欢松饼吗？小心那馅饼模子！”
读书笔记
是否公开“抱歉，你说什么？”瑞比说。
读书笔记
是否公开“要我把果酱递给你吗？”公爵夫人匆忙掩饰说。
读书笔记
是否公开馅饼十分可口，松饼绵软热乎，都很快被一扫而光，特别是馅饼！
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人心里想，“我觉得如果我自己拿馅饼的话会更好，尽管瑞比在切的时候似乎并没有注意到什么。这馅饼被烘烤得成了这么细的小块儿！我真不记得我把肉馅切得这么碎。我猜，这个烤箱比我自己的那个要加热快。”
读书笔记
是否公开“公爵夫人吃得可真快！”瑞比一边给自己的第五块松饼涂黄油一边想。
读书笔记
是否公开馅饼盘子很快就空了！公爵夫人已经吃了四块馅饼，正用勺子探索着什么。
读书笔记
是否公开“再来点儿培根吧，亲爱的公爵夫人？”瑞比说。
读书笔记
是否公开“谢谢了，亲爱的瑞比，我只是想找馅饼模子。”
读书笔记
是否公开“馅饼模子？亲爱的公爵夫人，你说什么？”
读书笔记
是否公开“就是让馅饼外皮保持形状的馅饼模子。”公爵夫人黑色皮毛下的脸红了。
读书笔记
是否公开“噢，我没用馅饼模子，亲爱的公爵夫人，”瑞比说，“我觉得做老鼠肉馅饼没必要用馅饼模子。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人仍在用勺子搜寻着。“我找不到了。”她焦急地说。
读书笔记
是否公开“没有馅饼模子。”瑞比看起来十分困惑。
读书笔记
是否公开“是啊，真的，亲爱的瑞比，它跑哪儿去了呢？”公爵夫人说。
读书笔记
是否公开“肯定没有，亲爱的公爵夫人。我不喜欢在布丁和馅饼里放铁皮做的东西，太不方便了——尤其是有人狼吞虎咽的时候。”瑞比又低声补充说。
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人看起来惊慌不已，继续在馅饼盘里面挖。
读书笔记
是否公开“我姑婆斯奎提娜，也就是塔比莎·特迟特表姐的祖母，就因为在圣诞节的时候，吃李子布丁吃到了一个顶针给噎死了。我从来都不在我的布丁和馅饼里面放金属做的东西。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人大吃一惊，把馅饼盘翻了过来。
读书笔记
是否公开“我只有四个馅饼模子，现在都在壁橱里面呢。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人发出一阵哀号。
读书笔记
是否公开“我要死了！我要死了！我吞了一个馅饼模子！啊，亲爱的瑞比，我觉得不舒服极了。”
读书笔记
是否公开“不可能，亲爱的公爵夫人，根本没有什么馅饼模子。”
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人呻吟着，哀号着，身子摇来摇去。
读书笔记
是否公开“我觉得很难受，我肯定吞了一个馅饼模子。”
读书笔记
是否公开“馅饼里面什么都没有。”瑞比很郑重地说。
读书笔记
是否公开“有的，有的，亲爱的瑞比，我肯定吞下去了。”
读书笔记
是否公开“我拿个枕头给你靠着吧，亲爱的公爵夫人，你觉得那馅饼模子在哪儿？”
读书笔记
是否公开“啊，我觉得我浑身都难受，亲爱的瑞比，我肯定吞了一个大个儿的馅饼模子，还有着尖锐的扇贝状的边儿。”
读书笔记
是否公开“需要我去请医生吗？我把勺子锁起来就行。”
读书笔记
是否公开“噢，需要，需要！快去请玛戈蒂医生，亲爱的瑞比，他就姓馅饼，是只喜鹊[1]，他肯定能理解我的。”
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比将公爵夫人安顿在壁炉前的扶手椅里面，便匆匆忙忙地出门去请村子里的医生。她在铁匠铺找到了医生。医生正在忙着把生锈的钉子放到一个墨水瓶里面，墨水瓶是他在邮局得到的。
读书笔记
是否公开“熏猪腿？哈？哈？”他说话的时候头侧向一边。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比解释说自己的客人吞下了一个馅饼模子。
读书笔记
是否公开“菠菜？哈？哈？”他说着，动作迅速地走到了瑞比身边。
读书笔记
是否公开他跳着向前走，速度非常快，瑞比不得不跑着才能跟上。这简直太引人注目了。整个村子的人都看到瑞比请来了医生。
读书笔记
是否公开“我就知道她们肯定会吃撑了的！”塔比莎表姐说。
读书笔记
是否公开就在瑞比找医生时，公爵夫人遇到了一件怪事儿。她独自坐在壁炉前面，呻吟着，觉得非常不开心。
读书笔记
是否公开“我怎么会吞下去呢！馅饼模子那么大的东西！”
读书笔记
是否公开她站起身，走到桌边，又用勺子在馅饼盘里面找馅饼模子。
读书笔记
是否公开“没有，这里没有，我肯定放了一个进去的，除了我也没有人吃馅饼，我肯定是把它吞下去了！”
读书笔记
是否公开她又坐下来，满怀悲伤地盯着壁炉架。火噼噼啪啪地烧着，火苗舞动着，这个时候，有什么东西发出了嗞嗞的声音。
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人吃了一惊！她打开了上层烤箱的门，从里面冒出了浓郁的牛肉和火腿的香气，里面是一个诱人的棕色馅饼。而通过脆皮上面的那个小孔，可以看到里面有一个小小的金属做的馅饼模子。
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人长长地吸了一口气。“那么，我肯定是吃了老鼠肉了！……难怪我觉得难受呢！……不过如果我吞了馅饼模子，应该会更难受吧。”公爵夫人回想着，“这要跟瑞比解释，可真是尴尬死了！我想我还是把我的馅饼放到后院，什么都不说的好。等我回家的时候，可以绕到后面把它拿走。”她把馅饼放到了后门外面，又在火炉边坐好，闭上眼睛。等瑞比带着医生来到的时候，她似乎已经睡熟了。
读书笔记
是否公开“熏猪腿，哈，哈？”医生说。
读书笔记
是否公开“我觉得好多了。”公爵夫人一下子醒了过来。
读书笔记
是否公开“听到这消息我真的非常开心。他给你带来了药，亲爱的公爵夫人！”
读书笔记
是否公开“我觉得，他光给我把把脉就够了。”公爵夫人后退一步，离嘴里含着东西悄悄走进的喜鹊远了一些。
读书笔记
是否公开“这只是个面包药丸，你最好吃了它，然后再喝点牛奶，亲爱的公爵夫人。”
读书笔记
是否公开“熏猪腿？熏猪腿？”医生说，这时公爵夫人咳嗽起来，甚至有点儿透不过气。
读书笔记
是否公开“别说了！”瑞比控制不住自己的脾气了，“给，拿上这块果酱面包，立刻出去，到院子里去！”
读书笔记
是否公开“熏猪腿和菠菜！哈哈哈！”后门外传来玛戈蒂医生欢欣雀跃的喊叫声。
读书笔记
是否公开“我觉得好多了，亲爱的瑞比，”公爵夫人说，“你说，我是不是最好在天黑之前回家呢？”
读书笔记
是否公开“也许的确是这样的，亲爱的公爵夫人，我给你找条又漂亮又暖和的披肩，你可以挽着我的胳膊，我送你回去。”
读书笔记
是否公开“无论如何我都不该再麻烦你了，我真的觉得好多了。玛戈蒂医生的一颗药——”
读书笔记
是否公开“如果它把你吞的馅饼模子给治好了，那的确是很神奇啊！明天吃过早饭之后我会去拜访你，看看你睡得怎么样。”
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比和公爵夫人热情地道别，公爵夫人便启程回家。走到巷子一半的地方，她停了下来，转身看了看，瑞比已经回屋关上了门。公爵夫人偷偷地翻过栅栏，绕到瑞比房子的后面，向院子里望。
读书笔记
是否公开猪圈的顶上，玛戈蒂医生和三只寒鸦正落在那里。寒鸦们正在吃着馅饼的脆皮，而喜鹊医生正在喝着馅饼模子里面的肉汤。
读书笔记
是否公开“熏猪腿，哈，哈！”看到公爵夫人的小黑鼻子从拐角处露出来的时候，他叫道。
读书笔记
是否公开公爵夫人一路跑回了家，感觉自己简直蠢透了！
读书笔记
是否公开当瑞比出来准备打一桶水回去洗茶具的时候，看到院子中间有一个打碎了的粉边白底的馅饼盘。馅饼模子就在水泵下面，是玛戈蒂医生故意留在那里的。
读书笔记
是否公开瑞比吃惊地盯着它：“谁遇到过这样的事情呢！那么真的是有一个馅饼模子？而我的馅饼模子都在厨房的壁橱里面。好吧，我从来都没有用过。下一次我要是再办聚会——还是邀请塔比莎表姐吧。”
读书笔记
是否公开Once upon a time there was a Pussy-cat called Ribby, who invited a little dog called Duchess, to tea.

But a most genteel and elegant little dog; infinitely superior company to Cousin Tabitha Twitchit.”
