A Chinese peasant went to the city to sell the rice harvest and his wife asked him not to forget to bring him a comb.
After selling his rice in the city, the peasant met with some companions, and they drank and celebrated it for a long time. Then, a little confused, upon returning, he remembered that his wife had asked for something, but what was it? I could not remember it. Then he bought in a store for women the first thing that caught his attention: a mirror. And he returned to the village.
He gave the gift to his wife and went to work in his fields. The woman looked at herself in the mirror and started crying inconsolably. The mother asked him the reason for those tears.
The woman gave him the mirror and said:
-My husband has brought another woman, young and beautiful.
The mother took the mirror, looked at it and said to her daughter:
-You do not have to worry about, she's an old woman.
