Description: Translation (Rita Seng Mai) The story is about a man who had a bad wife. Once upon a time, there were a widow and her two sons in a village. They worked as farmers for their living. One day, their mother was seriously sick and was about to die soon. She knew that she was going to die. So, she called her two sons and gave three seeds. And she said, "Ma Gam, you are elder brother. So, you have to take care of your brother when I am dead. Grow these three seeds. When they have grown enough, there will bear many fruits. Pick only one every day." A few days later, the mother passed away. The two brothers became more united and loved each other so much. As time went by, the elder brother got married. The trees were growing bigger too. Very soon, there were fruits bearing on those trees. Surprisingly, they were gold fruits. Then, Ma Gam's wife was thinking, "My brother-in-law will get married when he becomes an adult. He will have children too. Then, we have to share this gold fruit with all of them. I don't want to share. What should I do?" She disliked her brother-in-law. At night, she told her husband, "My husband, let's pick all those gold fruits and move to a town." Ma Gam said, "No, I can't. I have only one beloved brother. I can't leave him. We have lost our parents since we were young. So, I have to protect him." The wife said sulkingly, "Whom do you love more; me or your brother?" Ma Gam said, "Don't say like that. I love both of you." As time passed by, her brother-in-law became an adult. He could even get married if he wanted. Then, the sister-in-law's strong dislike for the younger brother had been growing every day. She didn't want to share the gold fruit with anyone. So, she told her husband to leave his brother and move to another town every day. Since the wife repeated the same words every day, Ma Gam also thought, "My brother has grown up a lot. I can leave him without worry. I will just listen to my wife." In the end, he agreed with his wife. The wife said to him, "Let's pick all these gold fruits." He said, "My mom said that we could pick only one in a day. I don't know why my mother said that. But now, we are not going to live here anymore. So, it will be okay to pick a lot. Fruits will grow back." The wife thought for a while and said, "Yes, it will be fine." Then, they picked the first fruit. So far, it was still fine. But when they picked another fruit, something bad happened. Suddenly, all the fruits became huge snakes! The snakes swallowed them. If one has a bad and mean wife in a family, his family members will be disunited although they love each other. This story wants to point out this.
