那些給我智慧和勇氣的寓言故事50:貧富的差異
One day, an old beggar went to the village. He knocked at the door of a rich man to beg for food.
天，一個老乞丐來到一個村子裏。他敲開了一個富人家的門，想跟他討點兒吃的。This was a big house and at the side was built a granary with a big padlock.
一這是一個大房子，旁邊有一個很大的糧倉，糧倉門上掛着一把大鐵鎖。The owner of the house was a miser and he was known for never helping anyone.
可是，這戶人家的主人是個出了名的窖嗇鬼，他從來不肯幫助別人。
The beggar was aware of his reputation but still pleaded.”Will you give me a bit of butter or milk "'
乞丐也知道這個吝嗇鬼的狼藉名聲，但還是乞求他：¨您能不能給我一點黃油或牛奶？”The miser said impatiently, "No! Go away at once" "Perhaps you can sweep out for me a bit of grain or beans."
吝嗇鬼不耐煩地說：¨不行快給我滾開！¨或許，您能給我掃出一把麥子或黃豆。¨The hungry beggar continued. "There isn't anything in my house! " "How about a little bit of bread?"
飢餓的乞丐又說道。¨ 家裏什麼也沒有！n¨那就請您給我一小塊麪包吧？”The beggar insisted. "Only a mouthful of food and I will be very grateful. " "Go away! I don’t have bread! " "How about some water? t am thirsty, "
乞丐堅持到，¨哪怕是給我一口飯吃，我都會對您感激不盡的。”“我沒有面包竹¨那給我一口水喝吧，我太渴了！”'I don't have water.” The beggar then said sadly to him, My friend, why are you here? You should go to some kind-hearted folk to beg for food because you arc) poorer than anybody eIse. "
“我沒有水！”然後，乞丐悲哀地對他說：¨我的朋友，那你還呆在這裏幹什麼？你應該去找一些善良的人們討些飯吃吧，因爲你比誰都窮！”
