    Three rich ladies met every day by the river. They sat there and talked the whole day. Once the three
ladies quarreled. One of them said, "Look, how white and beautiful my hands are!" Another one said, "My
hands are more beautiful." The third one said, "Mine are the most beautiful ones." An old beggar woman
came to them. "Beautiful ladies," she said, "I'm old and can't work. I'm hungry. Please give me something
to eat."
     But the three women gave her nothing. They only asked, "Tell me, old woman, who of us has the most
beautiful hands?"
     A peasant woman (农妇) was also sitting by the river. She was poor and her hands were rough because
of hard work. The old woman came up to her and said, "I'm hungry. Please give me something to eat." The
peasant woman took out her only cake she had and gave her half.
     The old woman ate it and drank some water. Then she took the peasant woman by the hand, brought her
before the rich ladies and said, "Now, I shall tell you whose hands are the most beautiful. The hands of the
poor peasant woman are rough because of work, but they give us food; they are far more beautiful than your
hands which have never done anything."
