CHINESE FORTUNE TELLER

 





知识改变命运 (zhī shi gǎi biàn mìng yùn , Knowledge changes fate)

一人去算命,算命先生说:“你20岁恋爱,25岁结婚,30岁生子,一生富贵平安,家庭幸福,晚年无忧。”此人先惊后怒,说:“我今年35岁,博士,光棍,不曾恋爱。”先生闻后,略微沉思后说:“年轻人,知识改变命运啊!”

yī rén qù suàn mìng, suàn mìng xiān shēng shuō : “nǐ èr shí suì liàn ài, èr shí wǔ suì jié hūn, sān shí suì shēng zǐ, yī shēng fù guì píng ān, jiā tíng xìng fú, wǎn nián wú yōu.” cǐ rén xiān jīng hòu nù, shuō : “wǒ jīn nián sān shí wǔ suì, bó shì, guāng gùn, bú céng liàn ài.” xiān shēng wén hòu, luè wēi chén sī hòu shuō : “nián qīng rén, zhī shi gǎi biàn mìng yùn a!”

Translation:

A man went to fortune-telling, and the fortune-teller said, “You are in love at the age of 20, married at 25, and have children at 30. You will be wealthy and safe in your whole life, have a happy family, and worry-free in your old age.” The man was shocked and then angry. He said, “I am 35 years old this year, have a PhD degree, still single, never have a girlfriend before.” After hearing this, the fortune-teller thought over a while and said, “Young man, knowledge changes fate!”
