I dare say you don't, Mrs. Grundy, but it's true nevertheless.

我敢说你不知道，格伦迪夫人，但这是真的。

Much against her will, Jo at length consented to sacrifice a day to Mrs. Grundy, and help her sister through what she regarded as 'a nonsensical business'.

乔大大地违背了自己的意愿，终于同意为世俗之见牺牲一天，帮她妹妹好好进行这一次在她看来“毫无意义的活动”。

Very likely some Mrs. Grundy will observe, " I don't believe it, boys will be boys, young men must sow their wild oats, and women must not expect miracles" .

很可能有些格伦迪夫人会说：“我不相信，男孩终究是男孩，年轻人必须播下他们的野燕麦，女人不应该期待奇迹”。
