再偷高英姬: 丈夫的區區20美元

Twenty Dollars


On their wedding night, the young bride approached her new husband and asked for $20.00 for their first lovemaking encounter. In his highly excited state, her husband readily agreed.

This scenario was repeated each time they made love, for more than 30 years, with him thinking that it was a cute way for her to afford new clothes and other incidentals that she needed.

Arriving home around noon one day, she was surprised to find her husband in a very drunken state. During the next few minutes, he explained that his employer was going through a process of corporate downsizing, and he had been let go. It was unlikely that, at the age of 59, he'd be able to find another position that paid anywhere near what he'd been earning, and therefore, they were financially ruined.

Calmly, his wife handed him a bank book which showed more than thirty years of steady deposits and interest totaling nearly $1 million. Then she showed him certificates of deposit issued by the bank which were worth over $2 million, and informed him that they were one of the largest depositors in the bank.

She explained that for the more than three decades she had "charged"him for sex, these holdings had multiplied and these were the results of her savings and investments.

Faced with evidence of cash and investments worth over $3 million, her husband was so astounded he could barely speak, but finally he found his voice and blurted out, "If I'd had any idea what you were doing, I would have given you all my business!"

That's when she shot him.

You know, sometimes, men just don't know when to keep quiet.

結果是意外驚人的，但過程是別扭煩人的－－30年的‘交易’......

更正：

謝謝原碼的啟發，特別讀了最後幾句話，終於弄明白。

當丈夫看到那意外的3百萬，不小心道出了他的秘密：他還和別的女人有染，如果他早知老婆有如此特異‘功能’，他會把所有花在別的女人身上的錢全花在老婆身上，那麽，存款將不可估量。

老婆聽罷，一槍kill 這個背叛她的老公。

男人，沉默是金，什麽該說什麽不該說，掂量好了。其實，對誰都一樣。

悲哀！
