英语笑话：Snails 蜗牛

Snails

A wife and her husband were having a dinner party for some important guests.

At the very last minute，she realized that she didn’t have any snails for the dinner party，so she asked her husband to run down to the beach with the bucket to gather some snails.

Very grudgingly he took the bucket and out to the beach.

As he was collecting the snails，he noticed a beautiful woman strolling alongside the water just a little further down the beach.

All of a sudden he looked up，and the beautiful woman was standing right over him. They started talking and she invited him back to her place. They ended up spending the night together.

At seven o’clock the next morning he woke up and exclaimed，“Oh no！！！My wife’s dinner party！！！”

He gathered all his clothes，put them on real fast，grabbed his bucket，and ran down the beach all the way to his apartment. He ran up the stairs of his apartment. He was in such a hurry that when he got to the top of the stairs，he dropped the bucket of snails.

There were snails all down the stairs. The door opened just then，with a very angry wife standing in the doorway wondering where he’s been all this time.

He looked at the snails all down the steps，then at her，then back at the snails，said，“Come on guys，we’re almost there ！！！”

蜗牛

有位妻子和丈夫正在准备晚宴招待一些重要的客人。

就在晚宴即将开始时，妻子突然想起晚宴没有蜗牛，于是，她让丈夫带着桶到海滩上捉些蜗牛回来。

丈夫很不情愿地拿着桶，来到海滩。

当他捉蜗牛时，看见远处的海滩上有个漂亮的女子正沿着水边散步。

突然间他抬头一看，那位漂亮的女子正站在自己面前。他们开始攀谈起来，并且女子邀请他来到自己的住处。他们一起度过了一个美好的夜晚。

第二天早上七点钟，男子醒了，大叫起来：“哦，不！！！我妻子的晚宴！！！”

他抓起衣服，飞快地穿好，拿起桶，沿海滩一路飞奔回家。他跑上自家的台阶。由于太匆忙，到达最高一级台阶时，把桶里的蜗牛撒了一地。

满台阶都是蜗牛。这时，门开了，愤怒的妻子站在门前问他整个晚上都到哪里去了。

他看着满地慢慢爬着的蜗牛，瞧了瞧妻子，又瞅了瞅蜗牛，说道：“快点，伙计们，我们就要到家了！！！”
