曾经有一个财主犯了罪,被带到县太爷那里审问。县太爷为了提出三种接受惩罚的方式让财主选择:第一种是罚50两银子.第二种是抽50皮鞭,第三种是生吃5斤大蒜。财主既怕花钱又怕挨打,就选择了第三种。在人们的围观下,财主开始吃丈蒜,“吃大蒜倒不是什么难事,这是最轻的惩罚了。”当 Once a rich man had committed a crime and was taken to the county magistrate for questioning. The county magistrate chose the rich man’s choice in order to propose three methods of punishment: the first one was a penalty of 50 two silver coins, the second one was to pump 50 whips, and the third was to eat 5 pounds of garlic raw. The rich man chose the third type because he was afraid of spending money and being beaten. Under the crowd of people, the rich man began to eat garlic. “It is not a difficult matter to eat garlic. This is the lightest punishment.”
