house and savor the smell of it.

One day, the rich man stared at them horribly from the window and it seemed that he was

Illogically, the poor man’s children were so healthy even they did not experienced eating
delicious foods while the rich man’s children were pale and thin even, they were so much
consumed of delicious foods.

As the days passed, the windows of the rich man were all closed. All the people can hear is

One morning a policeman from the presidency came to the poor family’s house with a sealed
paper and it is because the rich man complained that they have been stealing the spirit of the
delicious food that belonged to the rich family. So the father went to the court. The rich
man’s lawyer had thrown him some questions and he did responded to them all. The rich man
did not stop complaining and he even let his children come in to the court for proof. Until the
judge dismissed the case because the father paid the rich man by his collected coins and he
made them produced a wonderful sound. It became fair, and they ended up laughing because
of the nonsense case.
