Description: | Translation (Htoi San) Firstly, I am telling a story about a poor orphan long ago. Once upon a time, an orphan was penniless and stayed in a village. In that village, there were four rich men and a poor orphan. The four rich people wanted the poor boy to hire him as a cowboy. So he worked under four wealthy men. The four rich people were very jealous of each other. Even though the orphan boy did not have clothes to wear, "He will buy for himself or another boss might buy for him." Then no one bought him as they envied each other. No one bought him clothes, so he just wore what he had and herded cows. One day, the boy found a beehive hung on a banyan tree. So he went back to his bosses to borrow a knife. But no one lent him a knife. Only one rich man lent him a knife that they had not used for a long time, which was covered with fossils. The poor orphan boy accepted it with his joyful mind and went home. When he reached home, he looked for a thing to sharpen it and could not find a whetstone. Therefore, he looked for the other and found a bulbous stone in front of his house. Then he used it to sharpen the knife. After sharpening, the stone was also smooth. Then the stone started talking. "Oh, Child. I have been suffering from this boil for quite a long time. It was so painful and very difficult to live with it. Thank you very much for clearing my bump Today." Then the stone continued, "Whatever you need, tell me. I am ready to help you." After that, the boy left the place. He went to the banyan tree and dug out the bee's nest. So the banyan tree also began talking. "Oh, Child. There were animals inside my ears for a long time. I am very grateful for your digging them out. Don't do the job you are working with the four bosses now." The boy listened to the words from the banyan tree and the stone, and then he quit his cow-keeping job. The banyan tree told him, "Build your house." So he invited villagers and his bosses to build his house. The bosses said, "Like you are an orphan, you don't have anything to feed us. So we don't want to come." But the people from his village said, "Let's help build the house, and when it is time to eat, we go home and eat." They all came to build his house. Thus the boy ran back to the banyan tree and said, "Today, I am building my house. But I don't have anything to feed the people who come to help, so they don't come." The banyan tree replied, "You don't need to worry. When you have done the building job, come back to this tree's root." Thus the boy went back to his construction job. When the helping people rested, he brought them to the tree's root. They found there were many delicious foods prepared. He let them eat those. After three days, he fed the people with yummy foods, and his house was done. After finishing his house, he went to the bosses and said, "Let's go and have fun at my house today." The bosses responded, "Like your house, there is nothing inside it. When we need to sleep at night, where can we sleep? You are so poor and don't have blankets, so what should we sleep with?" The villagers said, "If you want to sleep, bring your blankets from your house." They talked like that and went to the boy's home. When they reached there, they thoroughly found all the necessary things inside the house. Blankets and pillows were there too. There was also gold and money in his house. After they were all satisfied the whole night and slept, they all returned the following day. Then he thought, "Whatever it takes, I also have passed my childhood age, and I need to get a wife." The poor orphan told his will to other poor orphans, "I need to get married." "Alright, one rich man has a daughter," they advised, "Let's go and ask him. Her daughter is very mature." So they went to ask for a wife for the boy. The rich man said, "If you can give me two visses of gold (about 3.3 kilos), I will give my daughter to marry off." The rich man looked down on the boy, and he said something like that. The wealthy man thought, "This poor boy cannot afford two visses of gold." Therefore, the boy was miserable and returned home. He told about this to the stone, which he helped to clear his bump, "I go for getting a wife, but they will marry their daughter to me only I get two visses of gold." When the stone heard this and responded, "Only two visses? You tell them you can give three visses or even four visses." The stone continued, "I am a gold stone. Carry me and give me to the rich man's family." When the boy told the rich man, he gave his daughter to the poor boy. Thus, he brought the gold stone and gave it to the girl's parents so he could get married to their daughter. At last, he could marry the rich man's daughter, and they lived happily in his house.
