We've heard of people being reunited with their wedding rings after losing them, but one U.K. woman's story may take the cake.
夫妻丢失婚戒再度找回的故事并不稀奇，但一位英国女士的故事绝对可在此类故事中拔得头筹。

Brenda Caunter lost her wedding band 41 years ago while gardening in her yard. She and husband Dave searched for the ring to no avail, and Dave ended up replacing the nine carat ring, according to The Daily Mail.
41年前，Brenda Caunter 在修整家中花园的时候丢失了她的婚戒。据 Daily Mail 的报道，她与丈夫 Dave 遍寻婚戒无果，最终不得不重新买了戒指来替换丢失的那枚 9 克拉的戒指。

But this week, more than four decades after the ring went missing, it was reunited with its owner. Dave spotted one of their neighbors using a metal detector and asked him to check the area where Brenda lost the ring, on the off chance that it might still be there. And sure enough, it was.
但是就在本周，丢失了长达四十多年的婚戒与它的主人再度重逢。Dave 发现他们的邻居正在使用一台金属探测器，便请求他检查一下当初 Brenda 丢失戒指的区域，抱着碰运气的态度，看看戒指是否还在原地。果真，戒指仍在那里。

"When we got the phone call to say it had been found I didn't know what to say," said Brenda, pictured above with Dave and the ring.
“当我接到电话说戒指找到了，我不知道该说些什么。” Brenda 说。（照片中的她与 Dave 一起，戴着那枚戒指）

It seems like lost wedding rings have a way of turning up, especially when they're lost in someone's yard. In November 2012, a woman was reunited with the ring she lost in her sister's yard 17 years prior. And in 2011, a Swedish woman found her wedding ring growing around a carrot in her garden 16 years after she lost it.
似乎丢失的婚戒都会自己找着回家的路，特别是那些被丢失在花园里的戒指们。2012年11月，有位女士在妹妹家的花园里找到了她17年前丢的婚戒。2011年，一位瑞典的女士在一棵胡萝卜边发现了自己丢失16年的婚戒。
