A farmer and a hen
Once upon a time there lived a farmer in a village. He was very poor. His income was very small. He passed his days with great difficulty. One day, someone gave him a hen. It laid a golden egg daily. He sold the egg every day. Soon he became a rich man. All began to respect him in the village. He became greedy. He thought that there must be a storehouse of golden eggs inside the hen. He should get them in a day. Then he would be the richest man in the village. He took a knife and cut stomach of the hen. He did not get even a single egg. He lost not only the golden eggs but the hen also.
Don't be greedy
One night her husband had gone to a faraway city to sell a golden egg. She took the sharpest knife out and cut the goose apart. To her horror, she did not find any egg inside the goose. Only entrails and blood came out. The greedy wife was left repenting and remorseful.
The farmer was also very sad. He said to his wife, “If you were not so greedy, we would not have lost the golden goose that God had gifted us
