题目内容

　　A woman saw three old men sitting in her front yard. She said,“I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat.”

　　“we don't go into a house together.”They replied.

　　“Why is that?”she wanted to know.

　　One of the old man explained,“His name is wealth. This is Success, and I am Love.”Then he added,“Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home.”

　　Then the woman went in and told her husband what happened. Her husband said,“Let's invite Wealth. Let him in and fill our home with wealth. His wife disagreed,”My dear why don't we invite Success?“The daughter made a suggestion,”Would it be better to invite love? Our home will then be filled with love! “Let's take our daughter's advice,”said the father.

　　So the woman went out and asked,“Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest.”Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success,“I only invited Love. Why are you coming in?”

　　The old men replied together.“If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would have stayed out. But since you invited Love, wherever he goes, we will go with him.”Wherever there is love, there is wealth and success.
