“Yes, ”She answered, still looking at the floor. “And do you？”

“Yes I do, ”He replied. “You see, in heaven at the birth of each boy, the God announces which

girl he will marry. When I was born, my future bride(新娘) was pointed out to me. Then the God added, ‘But your wife will be humpbacked. ’”“Right then and there I called out, ‘Oh God, a humpbacked woman would be a tragedy(不幸). Please, God, give me the hump and let her be beautiful. ’”
