is rich.

healthy.
How about the rich family? How can you
describe them?
Sir, they are weak, insensible, and
unhealthy.
Why did the rich man filed a complaint
against the poor family?
Sir, because according to the rich man, the
poor family is stealing the spirit of their
wealth and poor.
How did the poor family reacted on the
complaint of the rich man?

in themselves that they do not steal
anything.
Sir, by tinkling coins in his hands.
How did the poor man pay the rich family?
