Short Stories 2 from Elayer For All

There was an old man in the village who has land. But his sons were too lazy. They did not listen to anyone and they were not contributing to his father's work.

It was summer everything was fine but the old man got sick and stuck in bed for more than a month. So everything he earned is spent and you did not have anything to buy or sell. He conveys his sons to go and earn something or do work on the land, plant seeds, and cultivate.

But they did not listen to him and one afternoon they did not have anything to eat. The old man tried to do something on his own, but unfortunately, he was not able to do anything.

And he called his sons and tourism I have kept some grains and ingredients on that had to go and bring it and do prepare food for lunch and dinner.

After dinner again called his sons, listen carefully I don't know how long I will be able to stay here before that I want to tell you all about our assets and property.

For that, you all need to do some sort of work to get those things out it's actually a type of treasure.

So sons in our land, near the small hut, first you all need to dig left of hut. Until you see water

And we need some green crops and watery fruits which are grownup from our own land only.

So these are the just too simple work that needs to be done on our land but there were some conditions. If you all fail to follow then we won't able to get those assets and properties.

The first condition is there is no one should know about this that is an outsider.

The second condition is you should stream water for our crops from our land only; that is the whatever water we get from near that hut. And this water should be used to cultivate the crops.

Except you all my sons, you should not take anyone's help. When outsiders ask, "may I help you?" you all must say, "no thanks" without hesitating.

And how much green crops and watery fruits we grow that much we will get from the treasure so be sure about how much you all want and cultivate the same amount of that and also plan for the future and do take care of crops also, And I think, we only get it once so think about it and grow more as much as possible.

If any of you need any suggestions come to me; I will explain everything but don't take anyone's help okay.

So they all went early in the morning with the tools and materials. And started their work. In between, they asked for suggestions. An old man was able to walk for a few moments and by taking a look at how the land work is going on.

So ultimately they have opened a big well, as suggested by his father and they also cultivated much more crops and fruits. Then old the man took all those things and went to the market to sell those so evening he gets money and explained to his son what he did and happened there. This is what we get when we do hard work on our own.

It was a sunny day, Five men were rushing one by one. They bring something into the town and they sell whatever they had. So they left with the few and they are also thinking to sell those as well. But no one was buying those things then they decide to go to some other big town.

Before that, they came to a nearby town to which was near to their own town. Instead of taking money bag along with them so they decided to give it to any nearby house and whenever going back to their home, they will collect. So all men agree to it based on the condition to collect that money bag only when all five were present.

They chose one hut in the center of town, ask the owner to keep his bag, after a few days they will collect it and also the added you should only give this bungle when we all five are present. And for that, they will give something, whatever they will bring from City. So they went to that city and a few days later two men came and ask for the bag and he is not agreed to give it back so they waited and requested him to give but he didn't agree. The same night they steal it and left the town with the bag.

In the morning he came to know that the bag is stolen from his house and he went to one wise man, he told whatever happened.

A wise man said, Don't worry, just wait until all those five men are back, I will take care of it. so after a few days, all those three people came to collect that bag and the owner explain what actually happened in the last few days.

But they didn't listen to him and said We just want that bag. After a few moments, they went to the palace to inform the king. They explained and requested to pay compensation for their loss.
