Question
Imagine you are one of the three brothers. Write in short what you did with the rice.
Solution
After the businessman left the rice with me, I waited for long for him to come back to take his possession. Alas! He showed no sign of returning. I feared that it may get spoilt and become useless. I thought and thought about what I should do with the same and finally thought of a plan. I met my friend Sohan, a farmer, and offered him the sack, but on one condition. 'He would return the same quantity after the harvest and the rest he would distribute among the poor and the needy'. I insisted that Sohan too should take a share for his effort. In this way, I made the most of the precious resources I had in hand. What did I earn? The happiness that my thoughtful gesture helped bring a few smiles on the hungry faces and appreciation from my father's friend for my act of service.
