Cắt tóc miễn phí
English Ẩn / hiện bản dịch
Free Haircuts
A man brought a boy of about five or six into an expensive barbershop. Seeming to be in a hurry, he asked the barber to cut his hair first, then the boy's.
‘He can wait. Do mine first,’ he said.
The barber obliged. When his haircut was finished, the man got out of the chair and put the boy in his place. He excused himself, saying he had something to attend to outside and would be back in a few minutes.
Half an hour passed. Then an hour. Finally, the barber asked, ‘Why hasn't your father come back yet?’
‘He's not my father. I was playing in the street when he came over and said, “Come with me, and you'll get a lovely haircut for free.”’
