One day, a mussel opened its shell and basked in the sun on the beach. The mussel said, "Ah! It's so comfortable If only I could do this every day! " On the beach, mussels eat and drink while basking in the sun. Life is simple and beautiful. Just when the clam was not paying attention, a snipe came out for a walk. When he saw the clam, he thought, this fat is enough for me to eat for a day. I have to be ready.
The snipe went to the river to drink water first, then ate some leaves, and the appetizer was ready. Next thing you know, that fat is left. The snipe hid in the bushes, then jumped on it and put its mouth into the clam shell to peck at the meat. The mussel quickly closed its shell and bit the snipe's mouth tightly.
The snipe tried its best to suck the milk, but still couldn't pull it out, so it threatened the clam and said, "You just wait and see, hum! It won't rain today, nor will it rain tomorrow. If you don't loosen the shell and there is no water, you will die on this beach! " Storks think they are very clever. Meretrix meretrix doesn't think so. It's also a trick. I thought to myself: haha! This guy fights with me. You are a little tender. He proudly said to the snipe, "I'll shut you up." If we can't pull it out today, if we can't pull it out tomorrow, if we can't eat anything, we will starve to death on this beach, and so will we. What are you happy about? "Snipe hates mussels and wants to swallow them in one gulp, but it can't even pull out its mouth, let alone swallow them in one gulp.
The snipe and the clam show no weakness, and no one will let anyone.
Until the afternoon, a fisherman came here. "This dead fisherman again!" The snipe and the clam call together. "Do you know him?" The snipe is too big or confused. "Of course I do." The clam gloated, "He is the man who killed my father last year." "What's the matter?" Asked the snipe. My father was also killed by this man. "
The clam was taken aback. Is this how they were caught together? I don't want this. The snipe discussed with the clam, and the snipe said, "Let go of the shell and we will run." The clam said, "No, if I loosen the shell, you can take the meat away." The snipe said, "If I peck at the meat, you can close the shell again." The clam said, "All right then." Just as the fisherman caught them, the clam released its shell. The fisherman catches the clam first, and the clam jumps into the water. Catch the snipe, the snipe has flown away. The fisherman had to go home depressed with an empty fish basket.
This story tells us that both sides should give in to each other and take a step back in everything.
Step 2 wait for the rabbit
As the days passed, no rabbits came again. But the farmers' fields are full of weeds and the crops are all gone.
The farmer leaned against the stump and had a sweet dream: one day, the farmer was wandering by the roadside again, and suddenly he saw a rabbit running desperately, hitting a stump on the edge of the field and dying. Then, there came another one, two, three ... Just as the farmer was in high spirits and dancing, the farmer woke up and felt cold, hungry and sleepy.
Just then, I saw a flash of golden light, and a white-haired grandfather came. Grandpa repeatedly said to the bearded farmer, "son, if you are lucky enough to be lazy when the rabbit comes, you will surely accomplish nothing." If you want to have plenty of food and clothing, you can only rely on honesty and hard work. Silkworms spin silk into cocoons, swallows build nests, and bees collect flowers to make honey. Son, you must understand! " In the blink of an eye, grandpa was gone.
When the farmer woke up, he saw people farming, weeding, fertilizing and killing insects everywhere in the farmland near and far. Everyone is busy. The farmer looked at the field full of weeds and bowed his head in shame.
From then on, he worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, acting according to his grandfather's words in his dream. After three years, he finally became a rich man.
