English Original
The doctor finally reached his table at a dinner, after breaking away from a woman who sought advice on a health problem.
"Do you think I should send her a bill?" the doctor asked a lawyer who sat next to him.
"Why not?" the lawyer replied. "You rendered professional services by giving advice."
"Thanks," the physician said. "I think I'll do that."
When the doctor went to his office the next day to send the bill to the woman, he found a letter from the lawyer. It read:
"For legal services, $50."

一位医生摆脱了一位就健康问题向他咨询的女士后，终于来到了晚宴餐桌旁。
“你觉得我应该给她寄账单吗？”医生问坐在他旁边的一位律师。
“为什么不呢？”律师回答，“你通过提供建议，已经提供了专业服务。”
“谢谢，”医生说，“我想我会这么做的。”
第二天，当医生去办公室准备给那位女士寄账单时，他发现了一封来自律师的信。信中写道：
“请付法律服务费，50美元。”
