迷你对话：

A: Didn’t you know that breaking into a house involves a lot of risk? Besides, the owner of the house has never done anything wrong to you. Why should you...

你难道不知道破门而入有危险吗？况且房主也没干什么对不住你的事情，你干嘛还要......

B: We only know that the owner is a fat cat. We thought we could build our own tower of happiness by robbing his hog heaven.

我们只是知道房主是个有钱的主儿。我们以为抢了他的钱就可以建立自己幸福的家园了。

A: So, you are now building your tower in the jail.

这样，你把乐园建立到监狱里了。

地道表达：

hog heaven

拓展讲解：

类似的习语还有eat like a hog，意思是“狼吞虎咽”。

支持范例：

She's in hog heaven over her new sports car.
