中国传统民间故事：真假母亲

One day, two women came to king Solomon with a baby boy. Both women said the boy was their son. No one knew which woman was telling the truth.

King Solomon ordered a soldier to cut the boy in half, and divide the boy between the two women. The first woman said, "Go ahead. That seems fair." However, the second woman was filled with fear. "No" she shouted, "Don't kill him. Let the other woman have him."

King Solomon stopped the soldier. "Give the boy to the second woman," he said. "I'm certain that she's his real mother."

The woman took the baby boy home happily. Everyone was amazed at how king Solomon solved this problem.

一天，两个女人带着一名男婴来见所罗门国王。两个女人都说这个男孩是她们的儿子，没有人知道哪个女人说的是实情。

所罗门国王命令一名士兵把男婴切成两半，然后分给两个女人。第一个女人说：“开始吧，那好像很公平。”然而，第二个女人充满了恐惧。“不!”她喊道，“不要杀他，让另一个女人抱走吧。”

所罗门国王阻止了士兵，“把男孩给第二个女人，”他说：“我确信她是他的亲生母亲。”

那个女人高兴地带着男婴回家。大家都很惊讶所罗门国王如何解决这个问题。
