Description: Translation (Htoi San) Now, I am telling a story about 'Wa Ma Wa' and 'Wa Kawng Wa.' A long time ago, there was a mountainous chief called 'Wa Kawng Wa.' He had many servants, and he ordered them to work for him. He did not want to do anything, and he only commanded them to do his business. One day, people told him about a man named 'Wa Ma Wa' who could eat a lot of rice, and he heard about this news. So he wanted to test Wa Ma Wa. Therefore he went to Wa Ma Wa and slept at his place. He requested Wa Ma Wa, "Hey friend; I want you to tell me about my future, so I came to you." "I cannot eat a lot, and I don't want to eat many. I want to ask you what I could do about it. That's why I came to you, my friend." Wa Ma Wa welcomed him, "Friend, you can come. If this is the one I can help, I will help you. Come to me." "Friend, you sleep here first tonight. The best work can be slowly discussed so everything will be good." As Wa Ma Wa told him, he slept there. That night, they slept there. Wa Ma Wa called Wa Kawng Wa, "Friend, I need to work early tomorrow morning, so I have to go working at the farm. I am required to go there." "I have to chop the farm, so if you want, you can help me." Wa Kawng Wa desired to test that man; thus, he followed him. They cleared the farmland on the hill, and they had their eating only after finishing the clearing, so they were starving. He also endured and was very strong; therefore, he led working until afternoon. After they had done clearing the land, they went fishing by using a dam. They got one pot of fish. After getting a cauldron of fish, they returned home and put those fish there. They cleaned the fish. Although Wa Kawng Wa was so hungry, Wa Ma Wa led all these, so he had to work together with him. They cooked a big pot of rice, and it was all well-cooked. That rice pot was about four 'bye' (one bye is the sixteenth part of a basket). Both of them ate that rice after it was ready. They consumed and consumed until they did not notice when it was finished. They could decently talk when they had finished eating. Wa Kawng Wa asked, "Hey my friend, I requested you tell me about my augury. So shall we start doing this now?" Wa Ma Wa replied, "There is no need to foretell your augury. The divination is already told. The food we ate all just now also told the future. You cannot work properly so you cannot eat well. You did not perform and work with force, and you commanded your laborers; therefore, you cannot eat well." "You let go of your servants, and you do your job by yourself. Thus you can eat a lot." "You will be healthy too." Wa Ma Wa told him this. Wa Kawng Wa considered, "Yeah, you are correct. I am the one who does not know how to reflect deeply. I only enslave my servants, which is not acceptable. I will chase away my laborers. I will let them off." When he reached home, even though he was the mountainous chief, he released all of his servants and worked all tasks independently. From that time onwards, he could open his point of view. If we kept people as servants, we lost our consequences which were half of our effects. He had thought of this; hence he worked all on his own since that day.
