Question

One day, the single brother said to himself, “It’s not  52  that we share all the rice. I’m  53  and I need less than my brother.” So, every night he took a bag of rice from his store-room and  54  across the field  55  their houses, putting it into his brother’s store-room.

At the same time, the married brother thought, “It’s not fair to share all the rice. I’m married and I have my wife and children to  56  me when I am  57 . However, my brother has no one to take care of his  58 .” So, each night he also took a bag of rice and put it into his brother’s store-room.

Several months passed by. They found  59  strange that their rice never became less. Then, one dark night the two brothers ran into each other. Slowly they began to understand what was happening. Their bags fell onto the ground and tears  60  their eyes at once.
