It was made worse 弄巧成拙

A man went to London to visit a friend. He stayed far longer than was expected. A week passed, he still made no attempt to leave.

 

At last his friend gave him a gentle hint¹: "Don't you think that your wife and children would miss you?" But beyond expectation the man's answer was: "Oh, thank you very much. It's most kind of you. I'll send for them."

 

有个人到伦敦去看望一个朋友。他逗留了很久，是他的朋友没有料到的。过了一个星期，他还没打算离去。

 

最后他的朋友很客气地暗示他说：“你不觉得你的妻子和孩子在家里会想念你吗？”不料这个人的回答是：“啊，非常感谢你。你真是太好心了，我就把他们叫来吧。”
