I stared at her．I had seen exactly such eyes，and such hands，very recently！And suddenly I was absolutely certain that this woman was Estella's mother．

我盯着她。就在最近，我确实见过这样的眼睛，这样的手！突然，我完全确信，这个女人就是艾丝黛拉的母亲。

Later，as Wemmick and I left Jaggers’house together，I asked him about his employer's housekeeper．

后来，当我和文米克一起离开贾格斯的家时，我问他有关他的雇主女管家。

He told me that，many years before，she had been jealous of her husband and another woman，and had been accused of murdering this woman．

他告诉我，很多年以前，她猜疑她丈夫和另外一个女人好，被指控谋杀这个女人。

Jaggers was her lawyer，and at her trial he managed to show that she was not strong enough to kill anyone．

贾格斯是她的律师，在她的判决中，他设法表明她体弱不能杀害其他人。

She was also suspected of killing her three－year－old daughter，who had disappeared．

也怀疑她杀害了3岁的女儿，她女儿已经失踪了。

But because of Jaggers'clever arguing，she was judged innocent of murder．Aftef the trial she left her husband and became Jaggers’housekeeper．

但是，因为贾格斯的聪明善辩，所以判决她的谋杀罪不能成立。判决后，她离开了她丈夫，成了贾格斯的女管家。
