Writing II

Once there lived a farmer in a village. He was very hardworking. He had three sons. They were very lazy. This worried the farmer. He wanted his sons to take care of his fields as he did. So, one day, he called his sons to his side and said, “Dear sons, there is a great treasure hidden in one of my fields to make sure that you three never go hungry.” After a few days, the farmer died. After that, the sons decided to search for the treasure their father had been talking about. They took the farmer’s spades and mattocks and dug every portion of their field hunting the treasure. But they found nothing.

A friend of their father saw this and suggested that they should sow some seeds. They accepted the suggestion and did the same. It rained well that season. Days passed. The fields rewarded their labor with good crops that season. The sons realized what their father's hidden treasure was. From that day on, the sons started working hard.
