Such a Good Boy!
(Originally in English)
Two women were sitting on a train. It was a long ride so
they started talking about family business and their
family members. And the older of the two women said,
"Oh! My God, it's so terrible to have children. There's so
much to worry about; they always make trouble for you.
My son, he's only 20 years old, but he already smokes
and drinks, and he always changes girlfriends. It's really
terrible. I wish he could be better, but no such luck. I've
been praying every day." She then asked the other
woman, "And how about you? Do you have any children?
How about your son?" So the younger woman said,
"Oh, my son is no problem! He never smokes, he never
drinks and he doesn't have a girlfriend. He doesn't even
utter one word about bad things." So the older woman
said, "Really? Fantastic! You're so blessed. How old is
he?" And the younger woman said, "Five months."

乖小孩
两位女士坐在火车上，因为旅途很长，她们就开始聊起家人和家里
的事。年纪较大的女士说：「天啊！有小孩真是伤脑筋！有那么多
事要操心，还老是惹麻烦给你。我儿子才二十岁，就已经会抽烟、
喝酒，而且一直换女朋友，真是糟透了！我希望他改好一点，他也
不改，只好天天求老天保佑。」接着，她问另外一位女士：「那你
呢？ 有小孩吗？ 儿子怎样？」那位女士回答：「噢！我儿子没问
题，他从不抽烟、不喝酒，也没有女朋友，甚至没讲过什么不好的
话。」那位较年长的女士说：「真的吗？太好了！ 真有福气！你儿
子多大了？」比较年轻的女士回答：「五个月大。」
