How many beans make three?
While going through his wife's dresser drawers, a farmer discovered three soybeans and an envelope containing $30 in cash. The farmer confronted his wife, and when asked about the curious items, she confessed:
"Over the years, I haven't been completely faithful to you."
"When I did fool around, I put a soybean in the drawer to remind myself of my indiscretion," she explained.
The farmer admitted that he had not always been faithful either, and therefore, was inclined to forgive and forget a few moments of weakness in his wife.
"I'm curious though," he said, "Where did the thirty dollars come from?"
"Oh that, " his wife replied, "Well, when soybeans hit ten dollars a bushel, I sold out!"
多少粒豆子能凑足三升?
一个农民在查看老婆的衣橱时发现三粒豆子和一个装有30美元现金的信封。当他和老婆在一起的时候,他问了这件好奇事,而她也坦诚的告诉了他:
“多年来,我并没有完全忠诚于你。”
“每当我和别人鬼混一次,我就会放一粒豆子在衣橱里以提醒自己的轻率。”她解释道。
农民对老婆不再忠诚于任何人感到赞赏。因此他决定原谅并忘记老婆的少数几次错误。
“但我觉得好奇,”他说,“那信封里的三十美元是哪来的?”
“噢,那个嘛,” 老婆回答,“当豆子价格涨到每升十美元的时候,我就把它们卖掉了!”
