The fruit of labour


‘There once was a rich business man. He had son. He said to his son, go outside and earn money. He started crying and his mother heart melted. His mother gave him a gold coin. His father asked him, what had you earned? He showed his father so his father said, throw it in the well. He threw it in the well and his father said, go outside and earn money again. He went to his sister and his sister gave him 1 rupee. When his father asked, what had you earned so he gave him 1 rupee. His father said, throw it in the well. He threw it in the well. His father said, go outside and earn money. He went to a market and asked shopkeeper, is there any job available? Shopkeeper replied, if you will put this trunk to my house I will give you 2 rupees. He dragged it to his house and earned 2 rupees. His feet’s were trembling. When his father asked him to throw the money in the well. He cried and said, I am paining so much I had earn by myself. His father smiled and said, you are right. His father gave him his job and he promised his father that he will not be lazy.
