  :老婦和醫生

  An old woman having lost the use of her eyes, called in a physician to heal them, and made this bargain with him in the presence of witnesses:

  That if he should cure her blindness, he should receive from her a sum of money; but if her infirmity remained, she should give him nothing.

  This agreement being made, the physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little.

  And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment.

  The old woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing.

  The physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the judge.

  The old woman, standing up in the court, argued: "this man here speaks the truth in what he says; for i did promise to give him a sum of money if i should recover my sight:

  But if i continued blind, i was to give him nothing.

  Now he declares that I am healed. I, on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: But now, though he swears i am cured of my blindness, i am not able to see a single thing in it."

  :Do not hit your old servant

  An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.

  Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."

  :The Hen and the Little Girl

  In a country home, a mother hen and her cute chicks were living happily. A little girl came to visit the country home, but was very bored. One night, the girl went into the chicken house. As soon as she went in, there was disorder.

  Here and there cries of the chickens could be heard. The father, who was inside, woke up.

  "What's going on? Why are you bothering the chickens?" "Because I'm bored." "You have to sleep now, go inside."

  The girl went into the chicken house, again, the next day. There was a racket again, as the chickens were frightened. The moon in the night sky was worried. This time, the little girl's father will not be forgiving.

  Finally, the sleeping father woke up. "Why are the chickens crying? By chance" The father was angry and came out to the yard.

  "What's wrong with you? Is it okay to bother animals that can't talk? You need to be punished." When the little girl saw her father's angry face, she began to cry.

  "It is true that I bothered the chickens, but I was bored yesterday. But today I went in to apologize to the chickens. I was going to hug the chickens."

  When the father heard what his daughter said, a smile quickly appeared on his face. "You are truly my daughter." The father praised his daughter. He was proud of his daughter that knew how to apologize. The moon in the sky gave a big laugh, too.
