《一毛不拔》--贵和便宜有这么多种说法？

笑话：

A man and his wife were in town one night.

某天，一位先生和他的太太到了城里。

They were walking around, looking for somewhere to eat, when they walked past a very expensive restaurant.

他们到处走着，在找吃饭的地方，这时，他们经过了一家非常贵的餐厅。

The wife said to her husband ‘that smells absolutely divine!’

那位太太对他的先生说 '那里闻起来太美妙了！'

The husband replied ‘well, I’m in a very good mood tonight, so I’m going to treat you!’

那位先生说 '好吧，今天我的心情非常好，所以我要犒劳你一下'。

The wife said ‘that’s wonderful, thank you!’

太太回答 '那太棒了，谢谢你'。

The husband then took his wife’s hand and said to her ‘alright, now let’s walk around the block and past the restaurant again!’

先生拉起太太的手，接着对他说 '好，我们围着这栋楼绕一圈，然后再从这个饭店前面经过一次’。
