Translation (Htoi San)
I am telling the story of two righteous and honest people. Once upon a time, in a hamlet, 'Zau San' and 'Zau Sam' were the two men who inhabited that village. They both were ethically sound and had many acquaintances in their lives. They also led youths as youth leaders, so people in their village greatly loved and respected them. The two young men helped the village in every area flawlessly. Therefore, they became the heads of the village in the end. One day, Zau San bought Zau Sam's paddy field. A giant tree was grown in the middle of that field. Zau San wanted that tree to extirpate, and so he did it. When he dug to root out, he found a gold pot underneath that root. Zau San was a heartfelt person, and he thought to himself, "Umm when I bought the field," "I only paid for the field's cost, not the gold pot." "I don't deserve to get this gold pot." So he returned that gold pot to the previous owner. When he gave it back to Zau Sam, he replied, "Hey friend, when I had this paddy field, and I was the owner of this field," "I haven't found this gold pot. So I am not worth it. You found that after you bought the field." "So that is yours," Zau Sam did not accept it and gave it back to Zau San. They both gave it back to each other like, "You just take it," "No, no, you just take it." When they argued among themselves, the village's leaders finally gave them advice. The leaders gave them advice like this. Zau San and Zau Sam were relatives of the bride-giving and bride-taking clan. Maran Zau Sam had a daughter. Zau San had a son. Therefore, Zau Sam and Zau San let their children marry each other, making them a family. The people from the village advised making them one family. Both parents agreed to marry their son and daughter. Therefore, agreeing to this advice, the gold pot was given to the married couple for using this in all their needs. Thus, like Zau San and Zau Sam, who were righteous, sincere, and had an excellent conscience mind, we need to have their conception as the epitome of our lives.
