2.1.23A《画蛇添足》

Overdoing it may have the opposite effect. It happened to this Chinese gentleman from Chu who added legs on his drawing of a snake. 画蛇添足楚国有个祭祀的官员，给手下办事的人一壶酒和酒具。门客们互相商量说："几个人喝这壶酒不够，一个人喝这壶酒才有剩余。请大家在地上画蛇，先画成的人喝酒。" 一个人先把蛇画好了。他拿起酒壶准备饮酒，就左手拿着酒壶，右手画蛇，说："我能够给蛇添上脚！"没等他画完，另一个人的蛇画成了，夺过他的酒说："蛇本来没有脚，你怎么能给它添上脚呢？"于是就把壶中的酒喝了下去。那个给蛇画脚的人最终失掉了那壶酒。引自：http://www.ruiwen.com/wenxue/kewen/388451.html Subscribe to our newsletter: https://goo.gl/forms/iGzDQVYToF7Rivo42 Help us reach 99 Patreons https://www.patreon.com/learningchinesethroughstories Are you already a listener?
