[quote=GRIZ326,540588]Is there a Chinese idiom for this expression? "The fox guarding the hen house" The meaning is to entrust the safety of the chickens to a predator that eats chickens. We use it in all sorts of ways. My daughter (step-daughter actually) and I would play a game where I would say, "In America we say the early bird gets the worm...do the Chinese have a saying for that?" It was a very rare thing to stump her with an idiom that did not have an equivalent. Unfortunately, she is traveling and is not here to respond. So do Chinese people have an expression that is the equivalent to "The fox guarding the hen house" ??? [mood3] [/quote]
