Description: Translation (Seng Pan) The story I am going to tell you is about a man who had a good wife. Once upon a time, there was a very poor couple. They only possessed a paddy field. Since they didn't have the cows to plough the field, the husband borrowed them from a wealthy man. Then the wealthy man said, If you also can plough my field, I can lend you my cows." Since the poor couple didn't have anything to eat if they couldn't plant the rice. So, they agreed to do as the wealthy man said. The husband worked in the wealthy man's field in the daytime and his field at night. One night, while he was working in his field, the Sky God saw him and asked, "Why are you working like this for a living?" "I'm so poor. And I have nothing to eat. So, I work in my holder's field during the day and in my field at night," the man replied. The Sky God said, "Tomorrow night, bring a bottle of 7-year-old alcohol and cook a seven-year-old rooster!" The man agreed on what the Sky God said and returned home. However, he wasn't so sure about seven-year-old alcohol and rooster. When he arrived home, he asked his wife to prepare a bottle of seven-year-old alcohol and a seven years old rooster. The wife didn't say they didn't have those. She lent the money from others and prepared all the things her husband said. Moreover, the Sky God asked the husband to hang the bells in front of their house. So, the couple hung the bells on the fence. At night, they prepared the food and waited for the Sky God. At midnight, seven guests came to their house. Since the couple were informed, they served seven guests with the food they cooked. As soon as the guests finished the food, they went to bed. Then, the wife thought the guests were exhausted. While the guests were sleeping, the wife covered them with the nicest blankets they had. After that, the couple also went to bed. The next morning, the wife got up early and prepared breakfast for the guests. After she had prepared the breakfast, she set the tables and went to the guest room to wake them up. Although she woke them up several times, they didn't show any signs of waking up. Therefore, the wife pulled the cover a bit. Then, she found out the blocks of stone under the blanket. She was amazed and woke up her husband. She said, "Honey. Where have our guests gone? There are only blocks of gold. It's exactly as the Sky God said." "What happen to our bells?" the husband replied and ran out of the house to check the bells they hung. Every single bell was turned into an elephant, horse, and expensive things. The number of things was the same as the number of bells they hung there. Therefore, they became so rich. Transcription (Lu Awng) Ya ngai tsun na lam gaw num kaja lu ai la na lam re.
