Mr. Green lived in a village. He worked in the fields with some workers,and his wife had to do all the housework.

    “There’re so many chicks,dear/5 said the woman one day. “I can't look after them at all.”

    “That’s easy,”said Mr. Green.“There’s Mr.Black’s farm outside our walls. We’d better make a few holes (洞) in the walls and chicks will go to his farm through them and eat his vegetables.”

    “That’s a good idea!” said the woman happily. 

    Soon Mr. Black found it. He told Mr. Green and his wife about it. They promised (答应) they would stop their chicks doing it but they didn't keep their promises at all. Mr. Black thought for a while and found a way. He put nearly twenty eggs near the holes one afternoon. And that evening,when Mrs. Green was counting her chicks,Mr. Black called out on his farm,“Oh,I’m lucky today!I've found twenty eggs on my farm.”

    And the next morning Mr. Black found all the holes had been stopped up.
