Description:Translation (Gun Mai) A long time ago, there was a man. He was very wealthy. But, his wife had passed away. He had only one son but the son was getting lazy because he coddled his son too much. The son was wasting all the money and also selling the properties of his father. The man was hard-working but he was getting old. Because he was getting old, one day, he said to his son that "My son, you are now adult and you should be mature. From today, you look after me because I am getting old and not strong enough anymore." But, the son did not want to do any job. What he wanted to do was to eat and to be good-looking. The man was getting older and very unhappy so he sent his son to one of his friends to work there. He said to his friend that "Hi friend, my son doesn't want to do anything at home. Please tell him to work with you for one full year because he doesn't do what I asked him to do at home. Don't let him back until one year. I trust you." Then, the man returned home. The man's friend thought himself that "Actually, my friend is a very rich man. So, perhaps it would be a test to me." So, he did not ask his friend's son to do anything and just let him stay leisurely. The man's friend thought that his friend wanted to test him whether how he was looking after the man's son because they were very rich. So, he just let his friend's son stayed leisurely and also fed well. After one year, he gave 1% of a viss of a gold coin to his friend's son. The man's friend said to his friend's son that "Even though you did not work, tell your father that you worked a lot here and this gold is the wages for one year's work." The son returned home and said, "I am home, Father." When the man looked at his son, the appearance of his son was fine and the hands were also immature. So, the man understood that his son did not work anything. The man replied, "yes, yes" and he threw the gold coin that his son brought, into the well. Even though the father threw the gold coin, the son did not sorrow because he got the gold coin for free. Because his son did not sorrow for throwing the gold coin, the man thought to himself again that "This time, may be I should send my son to a place, which is very far from here and also a place that hard working a lot." So, he said to his son that "My son, go there for hireling and work because I am getting older and cannot do anything." The man sent his son there and said to the job owner that "Please ask my son to work a lot. Don't let him back until one year. At that place, the job owner also knew about the man and thought himself that "The man is very rich. Perhaps he want to test with me" just like the previous man. So, he just asked the man's son to do easy works. Let him to stayed leisurely and gave him a gold coin after one year. The son returned home and said, "I am home, Father. This is the wage of my works for the whole one year." When the man looked his son, the son seemed not like worked man. So, he threw again the gold coin into the well. Even though his father threw the gold coin, the son did not not sorrow. He said, "No problem. I got it for free. Nothing upset " Thus, the man thought again. The man thought that he should send his son to a stranger who did not know and hear about him. So, he said to his son that, "Dear my son, you go again for hireling and work as I am getting very old." This time, the man sent his son to a village where they hadn't been and seen before and also it was extremely far from them. And, the man asked at a house in the village that "Don't you want a labour?" "Yes, we want," said the house owner. The man then said that "This is my son. Please get a job for him. Don't let him back home and also don't let go anywhere until one year." and the man returned home. Since the man's son was a stranger, he was asked to work extremely. The mans' son was just kept working as he also didn't dare to escape. He did not receive good food and curries. He also did not receive well the cloth. The clothes that his father gave him had been torn because he had to work a lot. He got very tired and all the clothes were torn. After one year, the hands of the man's son were calloused and wounded. The body was thin and dark. He returned home. The job owner gave him a gold coin after one year. He brought the gold coin and said that "Father, I am home." The man felt very pity for his son when he looked at his son because the clothes had already torn. He understood that his son was really work-hard this time. But, he just pretended as he did not know. When his son gave him the gold coin, he was about to throw it again into the well as the previous times. At that time, the son suddenly grabbed the father's hand and said that "Father, don't throw it. I got it because of my hard works and suffering." The father also no long threw it. As the man loved his son very much, he hugged his son tightly and said that "My son, now you are a good son and I don't need to worry anymore despite getting old. As you have learned a lot, you don't need to work extremely like before. Eat well, work well, and dress well." The son also regretted that day because he understood how much pleasure thing to live at his father's house. He also thanked his father and both lived happily.
