Description:English translation (by Maran Seng Pan) A long time ago, in a village, there were a woman and her two children, a son and a daughter. They made money by selling fried food for a living. The elder son was so careless. He is an alcoholic. One day he killed a person when he was drunk. So, he was locked away in jail. As usual, the woman and her daughter sold fried food every day for their survival. The woman worried about her daughter's school fee since she was moving on to a higher-level course in school. While they were having a meal, the woman told her daughter that she didn't have money and it was not easy to support the school fee. Both of them felt sad and cried. One day, the woman was seriously ill and her daughter decided to earn money. So, she went and sold things from village to village. An old rich woman, who heard her mom was seriously ill, came and visited and she saw the daughter songing. Since the girl liked music, she wrote the songs and stuck them on the wall. The old woman found out the girl had music talent and she was thinking to help her to produce the songs. She asked the girl, "Don't you want to come with me? I want to help you to produce your songs and I will also treat you like my daughter?" Since the girl seemed she didn't want to go with the old lady, her mom said," You have to be an educated and strong-minded person. Moreover, you also have to back me up. So, go with her please." The girl agreed to go with her because of what her mom said. Seeing as she has a good voice, she could produce many songs and earn a lot of money in a short time. At the same time, she also failed to remember her mother. One day, she went and donate the things in an orphanage which reminded her of her mother. She went back to the village to meet her mother and found out that it had been one year her mom passed away because of illness. The neighbors asked her," Why didn't you come back and meet your mom all those years?" She answered, " I failed to remember my mother but now I came back home because I miss her a lot." And she let the villagers show the way to where her mother was buried. When she arrived there, she was more in regret than in sorrow. Before her mother passed away, she left a message to the villagers for her son and daughter that she would want her children to live together when her son was released from the jail. Even when the son was released from jail, the villagers didn't transfer the message. So, the siblings lived separately but the son was not careless like before. He became well-bred in the end.
