一天,一个农夫在村子的集市上买了四头驴。
他骑上了其中的一头回家。他骑着的时候发现只有三头驴走在前面。“这是怎么回事?”他自言自语道,“我买了四头驴,但是现在我只看见三头。”他忘记数自己骑着的那头了。
当他回到家时,他妻子在房子前碰见,“我看你买的这些驴很不错,”她说:“买的价钱合理吗?”
“是的。”他说。“但是我还有些疑惑,我早上在集市上买了四头驴。而且我确定我从市场出来时候是四头驴。但是看起来我现在只有三头,你瞧,一,二,三。”他仍然没想起来骑着其中一头驴,而且在它的背上呆了好半天。
刚开始他妻子盯着他,等着他笑,因为他以为他在开玩笑。但是当她发现他并没有开玩笑时,她转过头去笑着说,“真是太奇怪了,”她说,“你只看到了三头,可是我看到了五头驴。”
