Learn from your grandfather




 

*It's an old story that we read in Class 3 but with a new ending. I trust
you will like it:

A haryanavi jaat hat-seller who was passing by a forest decided to take a
nap under one of the trees, so he left his whole basket of hats by the side.
*

**
*A few hours later, he woke up and realized that all his hats were gone.

He looked up and to his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys and they had
taken all his hats. The jaat sits down and thinks of how he can get the hats
down.

While thinking he started to scratch his head. The next moment, the monkeys
were doing the same. *
*Next, he took down his own hat, the monkeys did exactly the same. *
*An idea came to him... he took his hat and threw it on the floor and the
monkeys did that too. *
*So he finally managed to get all his hats back.

Fifty years later, his grandson, Sukhwinder, also became a hat-seller and
had heard this monkey story from his grandfather. *
*One day, just like his grandfather, he passed by the same forest. It was
very hot, and he took a nap under the same tree and left the hats on the
floor.

He woke up and realized that all his hats were taken by the monkeys on the
tree. *
*He remembered his grand father's words, started scratching his head... the
monkeys followed. *
*He took down his hat and fanned himself and again the monkeys followed. *
**
*Now, very convinced of his grandfather's idea, Sukhwinder threw his hat on
the floor,.........*
**
*but to his surprise, the monkeys still held on to all the hats.*

*
Then one monkey climbed down the tree..... grabbed the hat on the floor....
gave him a slap and said........
*
*..
