While going through his wife's dresser drawers, a farmer
discovered
three soybeans and an envelope containing $30 in cash.
The farmer
confronted his wife, and when asked about the curious
items, she
confessed:
"Over the years, I haven't been completely faithful to
you."
"When I did fool around, I put a soybean in the drawer
to remind
myself of my indiscretion," she explained.
The farmer admitted that he had not always been faithful
either,
and therefore, was inclined to forgive and forget a few
moments of
weakness in his wife.
"I'm curious though," he said, "Where did the thirty
dollars
come from?"
"Oh that, " his wife replied, "Well, when soybeans hit
ten dollars
a bushel, I sold out!"
