5 сыпать соль на рану
( кому)разг., неодобр.rub salt into (in) smb.'s wound (wounds)О моей роли во всей этой истории Женька не говорил. Не потому, что не хотел сыпать соль на рану, а потому, что люди для него чётко делились на хороших и плохих, причём хорошие в худшем случае могли только ошибаться. (Л. Жуховицкий, Остановиться, оглянуться...) — Zhenka did not say anything about my part in the whole affair - not because he did not want to rub salt in the wound, but because for him there exist two quite distinct categories of people, good and bad, and the worst that the former could do was to make mistakes.
