THE MASTER AND THE SERVANT
The Lord sets a condition for every new servant: you will serve until you die, but if you get angry during that time, you must pay a fine of 1000 manats. If I get angry, I will impose it myself. Then, deliberately exasperating the poor servants, he makes them angry to accumulate wealth. This continues until the servant arrives who knows how to escape this fate. Now let’s see who will become angry...

What the Old Man Does is Always Right
The old man takes their only means of livelihood—a horse—to the market and makes a foolish exchange, guided not by profit but by the desire to make his old woman happy. Witnesses of this foolish exchange bet among themselves, convinced that the old woman will become terribly angry, even going so far as to slap the old man; if she doesn't, they will reward her with a bag of gold. The old man, however, is certain that his wife will kiss him and say, “Whatever my old man does is right.” Now, their fate lies in the hands of the oblivious old woman, who is impatiently waiting for her husband at home. Will she get angry or not...?
