- From the clouds of the sky, from the trees swaying with joy, from the rain, from the wet, soft earth, instead of getting knowledge from books, he started getting pleasure from getting his favorite knowledge.
A farmer named Dhanji lived in that village. The condition of the farmer is not very good. There was some land. In it he farmed. The farmer had an older brother. His ox Dhanji used to work in agriculture. Dhanji worked hard in farming. Rain ... came good so the crop landed well. Dhanji was a little happy after eating and drinking so his elder brother said to him, 'So far I have given you an ox for your farm, but now I need more of my ox, you buy a new ox for your farm.
The farmer bought oxen out of the little savings he had. When the ox came home, he had a son. Both the farmer and his wife Radha were happy. Dhanji felt that the bull was auspicious. Both began to take good care of the oxen. The ox also got along with him and he became very useful in farming.
The farmer's son Kanji grew up so he also started going for farming with his father. He began to enjoy climbing trees under the open sky in the field, listening to the chirping of birds. He studied a little, but he started to like farming more than teaching. Instead of getting knowledge from books, he started getting pleasure from the clouds of the sky, from the trees swaying with joy, from the rain, from the wet, soft earth. As Dhanji got older, Kanji started paying more attention to farming.
But the ox had now roared. Kanji was plowing the oxen, saving them and plowing them slowly. One day Dhanji came up with the idea that this bull is now a burden. It has not been very useful in agriculture. It is expensive to feed them fodder. He decided to sell the oxen at any cost. Kanji moved on knowing this. He said to Dhanji, 'Bapu, that ox has done us a lot of service, now it is old, it doesn't give much work, but don't sell it.'
Dhanji says, 'Son, man loves work. If oxen can't work, why feed them free fodder? And for two years now, drought has been a thing of the past, and grass is expensive. The oxen are useless now. We can't afford to feed it. '
Dhanji did not listen to his son and sold the ox but gave it to Panjrapol.
The second year the rains came good. Kanji pumped wells on the farm and made a lot of money. Her mother Radha died. The fathers fell alone. Dhanji began to feel uncomfortable with Rotla, so he married Kanji to a girl from a well-known and tobacco trader in the city. The new bride came married Maya. But his life in the village became confused. Dhanji was also old now. BDO was lying on the bed knocking PP.
There was a lot of noise from Maya Dhanji. He took over the reins of agriculture in two years, urging Kanji to give up farming and turn to trade. Kanji raised money by selling the land and with the help of Maya's father he decided to set up shop in the city.
Dhanji was shocked to know this. But Kanji said, 'Father, you are old now. The city doesn't suit you. You stay here! ' And one day Kanji and Maya flew into the city. Dhanji was helpless. He remembered the ox he had sent to the cage.
