"Well, my dear,"he said, as he was dressing,"I suppose you were right when you told me last night that there was a burglar in the house."
"Why?"
"Because all the money that was in my pockets when I went to bed is gone."
"Well, if you'd been brave and got up to shoot the wretch, you'd have had your money this morning."
"Possibly, but then I would have been a widower."
She gave him back half the money.
家贼
“哦，亲爱的，”男人穿衣服的时候说，“我想你昨晚告诉我说屋里有个贼是对的。”
“为什么？”
“因为我昨天上床睡觉的时候还在我口袋里的钱现在全都不见了。”
“呃，如果你勇敢点并且起来向那个卑鄙的人开枪的话，你今天早上就能拿回你的钱。”
“也许吧，但是我就会成为一名鳏夫了。”
她把一半的钱还给了他。
