Happy man's shirt
Once, a king fell ill. His doctors and wise men tried one treatment after another, but none of them worked. They were about to give up hope when the king's old nanny spoke.
Once upon a time, there was a king who was very ill. Doctors and saints tried their best to treat him, but to no avail. When people were ready to give up the last glimmer of hope, the king's old mother spoke:
She said, "If you can find a happy man, take off his shirt from his back and put it on the king, then he will recover." So the king's messengers rode all over the kingdom, but they couldn't find a happy man. No one seems satisfied; Everyone has some complaints.
"If you can find a happy man and put his shirt on your majesty, then your majesty will be cured." However, the king's angel searched every corner of the kingdom and found nothing. No one seems satisfied, everyone has some complaints.
Wherever the king's messengers went, they heard nothing but complaints and complaints. If a person is rich, he will never be satisfied. If he is not rich, it is someone else's fault. If he is healthy, he has a bad mother-in-law. If he has a good mother-in-law, he will catch a cold. Everyone has some complaints.
Everywhere the king's messengers went, they complained: the rich were never satisfied with their property, and the poor complained that it was someone else's fault; A healthy person happened to meet a vicious mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law just caught a cold with someone who was kind to herself … In short, everyone has something to complain about.
Finally, one night, when the king's son passed by a hut, he heard someone say, "thank you." I finished my daily work and helped my compatriots. My family and I have had enough, and now we can lie down and sleep peacefully. What else do I want? "
Finally, one night, when the king's son passed by a small hut, he heard someone say, "Thank you, I have finished my daily work and helped other friends." My family and I have had enough to eat and drink Now we can lie down and have a good sleep, and there is nothing else to ask. "
The prince was glad to finally find a happy man. He ordered the man's shirt to be taken to the king and paid the owner the money he wanted. However, when the king's angel came into the hut and took the happy man's shirt off his back, they found that he didn't have a shirt at all.
The prince was ecstatic because he finally found a happy man. He ordered that the shirt on the man be taken off and presented to the king, and that the man be given as much money as he wanted. However, when the messengers entered the hut and took off the shirt on the happy man, they found that he had no shirt at all.
