The Golden Eggs
A farmer and his wife once had a hen. Every day it gives them a golden egg. Slowly, the farmer and wife became richer and richer. But, because of greed, they had an idea “Every day, this hen gives a golden egg, and when will we become rich? Let’s kill it now and then we can have all the golden eggs.” “That’s a good idea!” said the farmer and picked up his knife and killed the hen, but there were on golden eggs in the hen. From that day on, all the gold eggs which the hen laid became rock. Afterward, both of them had diseases and lost their lives to starvation.
