Be Careful What You Wish For | 慎重许愿

English Original

A couple had been married for 25 years and were celebrating their 60th birthdays, which fell on the same day.

During the celebration, a fairy appeared and said that because they had been such a loving couple for all 25 years, she would grant each of them one wish.

The wife wished to travel around the world. The fairy waved her hand, and Boom! The tickets appeared in her hand.

Next, it was the husband's turn. He paused for a moment, then said shyly, "Well, I'd like to have a woman 30 years younger than me."

The fairy picked up her wand, and Boom! He was ninety.

接下来轮到丈夫了。他犹豫片刻,然后害羞地说:“嗯,我想要一个比我年轻30岁的女人。”

仙女举起了她的魔杖,砰! 他变成了90岁。
