Description: Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there was a fatherless son in a village. His mother grew him up well. When he became a grown-up man, he got married. His mother farmed vegetables for their living. As she was getting old, she became blind. Then, she just sat in the house and spent her days just by touching things every day and night. Then, the daughter-in-law needed to prepare meals for her when she came back from the farm. When her husband went to the farm to plough or went to the forest to collect some wood in the daytime, she had to live with her blind mother-in-law. She disliked to take care of her mother-in-law and didn't cook well for her. Although she fed her mother-in-law, she didn't treat her well. The mother-in-law was upset. But, she didn't say anything to her son because she worried that her son and her daughter-in-law might quarrel and fight. She just kept her feelings. One day, the granny told her daughter-in-law that she wanted to eat the chilli paste. The daughter-in-law agreed to make it for her. But, she pounded the chilli with caterpillars. The granny didn't know that and just ate the paste since she could not see what was inside. After eating, she felt itchy through her throat and in her mouth. She asked, "My daughter-in-law, what kind of paste is it? It is really itchy." Then, the daughter-in-law said, "Maybe your mouth is itchy itself, not because of chilli paste." One day, the son went fishing and got lots of fish. Then, he said to his wife, "My wife, grill the fish for mom." But, the wife grilled leech for her mother-in-law. The granny didn't know that it was leech curry. So, she thought it was really hard to chew. At night, her son came back and did not know that his wife cooked the leech for his mother. He asked, "How is your dinner? Is it delicious?" The mother answered, "It's too hard to chew." Then, he looked at the curry and saw the leech inside the pot. He got angry at his wife. He told her, "Why did you do that?" The wife said, "It's just an accident." When his wife said like that, he totally believed her. After a few days, his mother said, "I want to eat grilled fish paste." The daughter-in-law said, "Okay. You can have it." Then, she grilled the dog turd instead of fish. And she fed her mother-in-law. The mother-in-law just ate it without knowing it was a dog turd. But she got bad smell while eating. She knew that her daughter-in-law did bad things towards her. She was upset and cried a lot. She said in a quavering voice, "Oh Lord! Do you know I am in trouble? Please, take my soul and I don't want to live anymore." When the daughter-in-law heard, she said, "It would be better if GOD takes you. I would be glad." She insulted her mother-in-law instead of being polite or regretting it. GOD didn't like the daughter-in-law's bad manners. So, GOD changed her into a dog. When she became a dog, she was shocked. Then, she just sat beside the house and was waiting for her husband. Her mother-in-law did not know that she turned into a dog. At night, the husband came back and called his wife. The mother said, "I did not hear her voice. Maybe she is going out somewhere." Then, he called his wife again, "My wife!" At that time, the dog barked, "Woof! Woof!" When he heard the barking sound, he asked his mother, "Where did that dog come from? At that time, the dog barked again, "Woof, woof." Whenever he called his wife, the dog barked, "Woof, woof." But, the husband did not notice that his wife turned into a dog. He thought it was only a stray dog. This story is about a daughter-in-law who turned into a dog because she mistreated her mother-in-law. It is a moral story that the daughters-in-law should treat their mothers-in-law well. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi de da mare langai kaw e graida kasha nga ai i.
