Nutcase No.3 had a daughter who just wed his best friend's son, Idiot No.1. But one day, the daughter took her suitcase and ran home, crying all the way. So Nutcase No. 3 asked the daughter, "What's wrong? What's wrong with you? Why did you come home?" The daughter said, "He always scolds me. I told him to stop, and he hit me!" So Nutcase No.3 heard the daughter say that, and didn't say anything. He went straight to her and slapped her in the face. The daughter cried even harder, "Oh! How come you also hit me?" And her father said, "Now go home and tell your lousy husband, because he hit my daughter, I hit his wife!"
