English Original
A homeless man stops at a farmhouse to ask for shelter for the night. The farmer welcomes him in. At dinner, the man is astonished to see a gigantic pig sitting at the table like a human, wearing three medals and a wooden leg.
Overcome with curiosity, the man asks about the bronze medal. The farmer explains that the pig saved their son, Timmy, from drowning in the lake.
"And the silver medal?" the man asks. The farmer tells how the pig woke the family when their house caught fire.
"What about the gold medal?" The farmer recounts how the pig chased away a burglar who attacked his wife.
Finally, the man asks about the wooden leg. The farmer replies matter-of-factly, "Well, you don't eat a pig like THAT all at once!"

一个无家可归的男人在一处农舍前停下,请求借宿一晚。农夫热情地接待了他。晚餐时,男人惊讶地看到一头巨大的猪像人一样坐在餐桌旁,脖子上戴着三枚奖牌,还有一条木腿。
男人按捺不住好奇心,询问了那枚铜牌。农夫解释说,这头猪从湖里救起了他们溺水的儿子蒂米。
"那银牌呢?"男人问。农夫讲述了房子着火时,猪如何叫醒了一家人。
"金牌呢?"农夫又说起几周前,猪如何赶走了袭击他妻子的窃贼。
最后,男人问起了那条木腿。农夫实事求是地答道:"嗯,像这样的猪,你总不能一次就吃完吧!"
