MAGICAL HEN
MAGICAL HEN
One day, a poor man went to a farmer and brought a sack of rice from him, instead of a chicken. When the farmer's wife came to know that her husband had given a sack of rice in exchange for a simple chicken, she was very angry.
However, the next morning the farmer's wife went to the hen and found a golden egg. The magic hen started laying a golden egg every day. This went on for several weeks. Soon the farmer became the richest man in the village.
However, the greedy wife of the farmer was not satisfied with this. One day when the farmer was not at home, she brought a big knife and cut the stomach of the hen.
She was thinking that all the golden eggs would become out together from the stomach of the hen. She was very disappointed when she did not get a single egg. Now the egg that she used to get every day, she also lost her hands.
Moral:
"Greediness never lets one become satisfied and happy." - Upasana Pattanayak.
