World Children's Story Classics: Family Stories

Chapter 13
Once upon a time, there were two brothers who went hunting together in the countryside and were looking around. Suddenly they saw a flock of wild geese flying towards them, and they drew their bows and set up arrows to shoot.

The elder brother said: "Hey! What luck! It looks fat enough, let's take it home and stew it." The younger brother curled his lips and said, "Ducks are only stewed! Wild geese are still delicious roasted." The elder brother refused to accept, It must be stewed, but my brother refused to listen and insisted on roasting.The two couldn't argue, so they went to a nearby village to find an old man to comment.

Seeing that the two of them were still arguing, the old man came up with a solution: asked them to cut the goose in half and eat each part.The two were very satisfied, but when they returned to the original place, the geese had already flown without a trace.
