Once, long ago, a successful merchant married a lovely younger lady. He traveled frequently (he ran a caravan). One day, on his return home, the servants met him at the door crying, "We heard a man's voice from the mistresses bedroom. But when we knocked, she wouldn't answer and when we finally broke in we found her astride a very large chest. She won't let us look inside."
The man walked to where his wife sat on the chest. "Honey," he said. "What have you got in that chest?"
She sniffed. "Look for yourself, but from this day forward, I'll know you don't trust me."
A wise man, he paused to think. Then he called four of his strongest servants. They carried the chest out back and buried it deep below the ground.
The couple never spoke of the chest again. They lived happily for many years and they raised many fine children.

Um... ok. What's the joke? Or the riddle? Are we supposed to guess what's in the chest? If so, I guess the other guy.

Okay, so I know the moral of this story (unlike everyone else).
The wife was testing her husband to see how much trust he had in him, and if he would have looked, he would have seen nothing, and they would have gone their separate ways!

so I assume the husband knew she ****** another dude and the guy was in the chest so his solution, bury the guy and let him die.
