How old are you, may I ask?”“I am ninety years old.”“What?”cried the rich man.“You are ninety years old. You axe planting a very young tree now and it will take years to grow fruit. You certainly don't hope to live long enough to get any fruit from this tree.”The old man looked around the garden. Then he said with a smile,“Tell me, sir. Did you eat figs when you were a boy?”“Sure!”the rich man didn't know why he asked the question.“Then tell me this,”he said,“who planted the fig trees?”“Why! I don't know.”“You see, sir,”went on the old man,“our forefather(祖先)planted the trees for us to enjoy and I am doing the same for the people after me.”
