Description:		Translation (Rita Seng Mai) I will tell you about a girl who lied. Once upon a time, there was an ugly girl in a palace. She was really good at lying. One day, the king heard about her. So he called her to the palace and said, "You are good at lying, right? How do you lie to people?" She said, "Yes. I am good at lying." The king said, "You are a liar! You shouldn't live here!" He drove her out of the village and sent her to the forest. One day, she was wandering in the forest and arrived at the place where an old farmer and his wife lived after crossing a mountain. The old couple earned a lot of money after selling the wood. The liar saw the old woman counting money and said, "Grandma, please let me stay here. I don't have any relatives to rely on. Please help me." The old lady felt pity for her and said, "Okay, you can stay here with us. You can work and live together with us." When the old man got back home in the evening, he also agreed to let the girl stay with them. The old lady always brought her husband his lunch in person. One day, she asked the girl to send the lunch box to him. Then the liar girl took the lunch box and went on her way. There was an old well along the path. She left the lunch there and went back to the old lady. She said, "Grandma, Grandpa fell into the well on the way. He slipped in when I handed him the lunch box. Bring a long rope and let's go quickly!" When they arrived, the old lady was crying and upset. As she bent over to look into the well, the liar girl pushed her in. The old lady didn't even have a chance to call for help. She died there. Meanwhile, the old man wondered why his wife hadn't come to bring him lunch yet. When he walked back home, he saw the girl push his wife into the well. He was shocked and thought, "How could she do this to us? We gave her food and a place to sleep, but she is not grateful and did something like this?" Then he took out his knife and killed her.
