我当时还不缺钱

Looking very unhappy, a poor man entered a doctor's consulting-room.

 

"Doctor," he said, "you must help me. I swallowed a penny¹ about a month ago."

 

"Good heavens, man!" said the doctor. "Why have you waited so long? Why don't you come to me on the day you swallowed it?"

 

"To tell you the truth, Doctor," the poor man replied, "I didn't need the money so badly then."

 

一个看起来很难受的穷人走进大夫的诊室。

 

“大夫！”他说，“帮帮我！一个月前我吞了一分硬币！”

 

“天哪，”大夫说，“早干嘛去了？你当时怎么不来看？”

 

“实话告诉您吧，大夫，”穷人说，“我当时还不缺钱！”
