Translation (Htoi San) I am telling a story about the victory of good over evil. Once upon a time, two neighbors were staying together. Of the two families, one was poor, and the other was rich. The rich neighbors threw and piled up all their rubbish from their house to the poor neighbor's side. The first son from a low-income family was angry about it. The first son said, "Father, they are so rude. They do like this all the time." The father replied, "It doesn't matter. I know." Then the father collected all the rubbish and made them manure. He also put three seeds of bottle gourd inside the waste. After that, the bottle gourds grew so fast and bore fruits a lot. They could also sell many bottle gourd sprouts and bottle gourds. The poor family gave bottle gourds and sprouts to their rich neighbor as a present. The father told the wealthy neighbor, "These are from the rubbish you threw into our yard. I made them manure and planted them. So enjoy them." The rich neighbors were so shy and repented from what they had done before. Therefore, even though people did wrongdoings, we must respond with good things in the world. Transcription (Lu Awng) Ya bai hkai na gaw nkaja ai hpe kaja ai hte dang ai maumwi re.
