英语笑话:The Kings Brother 国王的兄弟

A poor man, presenting himself before the King of Spain, asked his charity, telling him that he was his brother.Thinking desiring to know how he claimed kindred（家族，亲属关系） to him, the poor fellow replied, We are all descended from one common father and mother viz., Adam and Eve. Upon which the king gave him a little copper piece of money.The poor man began to be moan himself, saying, Is it possible that your Majesty should give no more than this to your brother? Away, away, replies the king: if all the brothers you have in the world give you as much as I have done, you'll be richer than I am.
