　　怕老婆的男人
        　　The ruler of an ancient kingdom wanted to disprove the statement that the
men of his domain were ruled by their wives.He had all the males in his kingdom
brought before him and warned that any man who did not tell the truth would be
punished severely.
        　　Then he asked all the men who obeyed their wives' directions and counsel to
step to the left side of the hall. All the men did so but one little man who
moved to the right.
        　　“It's good to see，”said the king，“that we have one real man in the
kingdom.Tell these chickenhearted dunces why you alone among them stand on the
right side of the hall.”
        　　“Your Majesty，”came the reply in a squealing voice，“it is because before I
left home my wife told me to keep out of crowds.”
