Description:Translation (Htoi San) Here is a story about "I want to know when I am going to be rich?" Once upon a time, there was a boy in a village. As the boy was so poor and he wanted to know when he would be rich. Therefore, one day, he went up to ask a seer man who told the prophecy on the way to a very far mountain. When he was somewhere on the way, it was getting dark and sunset, so he rested. When he rested at that house, the house owner asked him, "Child, where are you going?" The boy responded, "Grandpa, I want to know when and how my life changes. So I am planning to go to that mountain and ask the prophet there." The house owner requested him, "If you are going to ask about yourself, can you ask for my pear tree? Why are its leaves rich in foliage but no fruits?" He accepted the request, "I will ask for you." The next day, he left that place and continued his journey. When he reached a place, he rested again. The husband from that house asked him, "Where are you going?" "I want to know when my life will change. So I go and ask about myself." replied to the owner. The host appealed to him, "To that old man? Can you ask for uncle's life too?" "I have a child. I am so worried that my child doesn't speak even though she is growing up." "So please ask for me." When he heard this, he agreed to ask for him and continued his journey. And he stopped at another place. "Child, where are you planning to go?" someone asked him. He responded, "I don't know about my future life when it will be changed? I want to know, so I am going to ask about it." The tortoise said, "If so, can you demand me too?" "I have been married for a long time, but I don't bear a child. Please ask for me." He said, "I will." Then he continued his way to the seer man and reached him. He said to the old man, "Grandpa, I want to ask about myself." The wise man replied, "I will answer three questions if you want to know." He thought and was perplexed, "Should I ask mine, or should I ask those three questions?" At last, he decided, "Ok. Never mind, it is ok for me not to know about myself." "I will ask for the others." Then he requested. He said the first question, "This is about the pear tree. Why are its leaves rich in foliage but no fruits?" The old man replied, "There are two gold pots under that tree." "The two pots are filled up with gold. You take one, and the owner takes one." He continued his questions, "Why can't the girl talk even though she has passed her childhood?" The wise man responded, "If she sees what she loves most and what she is interested in, she will know how to talk." "Why can't the female tortoise who lives in the water bear a baby?" asked the last question. "That is because she has two gold blocks inside her womb." "She has to press them out and vomit them out. Then she can bear a baby," explained him. After he got all the answers he asked, he thanked the wise man and went back. On the way home, he first arrived at the tortoise and said, "You have two gold blocks inside your stomach. That's why you can't bear a child." That tortoise vomited out those two gold blocks and gave one to him. It only took one. He carried on his way home and got to the house where a father and a daughter lived. He passed the answer, "Your child can speak when she sees what she is interested in most." At that time, the girl was inside the house. When the boy entered it, the girl saw him and fell in love with him. She could talk, "Is that Father?" The father heard this and said, "My child can talk." "She can talk at this age because of you. I will let you marry my daughter." Then the father wedded his daughter to the boy. The two couples carried on with their journey home and reached the pear orchard. The house owner asked him, "Did you ask about my pear tree why it does not bear fruits?" "Underneath your tree, there are two gold pots." "The two pots are filled up with gold." "The seer man told you to take one and me to take one." "If there are gold pots in my garden, those belong to me. You two go away." The house owner chased them out, so they went back to their tiny house. That man dug the pear tree, and he saw two gold pots when he opened the lit and saw these two pots full of snakes inside. "This boy lied to me. Like these two snake pots, you take them all." He threw them with these two pots. Those two couples opened and saw that those pots were full of gold. So they got them all. The pear orchard owner repented for what he did. When he was told to share and get together, he did not get a piece due to his greediness.
