In the middle of the night, Peter's wife suddenly fell ill. She couldn’t help crying,“Oh, my stomach (胃)! Get the!”
Peter, awaking from a deep sleep, thought his wife was only having adream.
“Stop that noise.” he said to her. He turned over and tried to go toagain, but his wife still cried out, “Oh, help! Help! I'm sure I'm!”
Peter got out of bed and started, but he could not find him any clothes.
“Where is my shirt?” he asked. His wife wasill to tell him, and she could only cry, “Oh, mystomach!”
As soon as he had put his clothes, he said, “Now, my dear, are you quite 44that you need the doctor? Surely you can waitmorning, can't you?”
“No, I can't. Go, go, go.” his wife shouted,“you will find me deadthe morning.”
So Peter went out into the dark street. He had only gone a few metershe heard his wife calling him again.
“I'magain now, and I shall not want the doctor.” she said softly.
Hearing this, he started running asas he could towards the doctor's. When he arrived there, he knocked at the door loudly enough to wakearound.
The doctor put his sleepy head out of the bedroom window and said, “Er? Who's there?”
“Oh, Doctor.”Peter said to him, “I've verynews for you. My wifeill with a terrible stomachache (胃疼). I was on my way to bring you to her, but she called me back to say the trouble had suddenlyher. So you need not come. Go back tonow, and sleep well!”
