KK1-0967 - Azep ai num (Nagging wife) with English translation

Translation (Htoi San) The story is about an annoying woman. Once upon a time in a village, a couple was living there. A couple was a husband and a wife. They had many paddies, and their family was so rich in that small village. They were happy as they did not need to worry about their lives. Although they were wealthy, the wife was always annoyed and quarrelsome. She was fretful to her husband all the time, so the husband was not happy. He was not joyful even though he controlled himself. But he was still unhappy. Though he did not do anything wrong, he faced his wife's anger all the time. At last, the wife was not only angry and nagging at him but also chasing the husband out of the house. "Get out of the house, such a person like you." said the wife. As the wife said seriously like this, the husband could not stay there, and he came out of the house. He was walking and walking to nowhere as his legs led the way and just followed until he reached a lake. When he arrived beside the lake, he was thinking about how to cross it. Then he found a tortoise there. As he was walking the whole day, he was hungry. When he saw the tortoise, he thought, 'I am hungry, so I can kill it and eat it. Then I can continue my journey.' When he prepared to kill and eat it, the tortoise started talking. "Hey gentleman, please don't kill me. Carry me and walk!" the tortoise said to the husband, then it continued, "Close your eyes!" The husband did as the tortoise told him, and he could pass the water smoothly, and he reached the wonderful house. When they reached that house, the tortoise introduced him to its family, and he said, "When I lost the way near the lake, and I was hungry, this friend led me here." The family members cooked the rice and fed him with hospitality, and welcomed him. He could also sleep well at the tortoise's house. That tortoise's mother and family members told him, "You are not the same as us. So you cannot stay here longer, and you have to go back to your place." "Ok, can. I will walk away from here if you say that." replied the husband. So the family member gave him one cooked- rice pack, one salt pack, and one plucked chili pack. And they told him, "Bring them with you." Hence, he came out of their house and continued walking. He walked for the whole day, and he felt hungry. "Now, I am hungry, so I'll open and eat the rice pack that they gave me. After that, I will continue working, but I don't know where I can be." He sat down and prepared to eat. When he opened the rice pack, he saw the gold block in the packet. When he opened the salt packet, there was a silver block inside the pack. Then, he opened the chili packet, and he saw a brass block. He was amazed at what had happened to him. At that time, a big group of people arrived where he was. He did not know where that group of people came from. When he saw them, they talked to each other, "This is a perfect place. Let's build a village for us here." As his wife kicked him out, he had nowhere to go. So when the group of people planned to build a village, they constructed houses there. Thus he just stayed together with them. He lived there as a leader and a king because he had gold, silver, and brass, and he could rule the people there. The people were so hard working. In addition, they became wealthy. All the villagers did not need to worry about the food for them as they were so prosperous. At that time, his wife, who chased him out, had no one working for her at their farm. So she ate the paddy slowly, which her husband worked and kept. After two or three years of eating, all her rice had been empty. Since she had no more rice and savings, she did not know who to beg. She heard about the village beside the river that was so happy and so rich then she went and implored there. The king from that village gave her what she asked. She did not know that the king was her husband, whom she chased out. She went there the next time when her food ran out. She came back when she got the food. At the third time, the king let her know that he was her husband and gave her food. He told her about the old days and what had happened to him. The wife was so shameful. She tried to stay there, but the people from that village knew more about her. She was so embarrassed and died because of it.

译文（Htoi San）：本故事讲述一位乖戾易怒的妇人。从前，某村落中有一对夫妇，二人拥有大片稻田，家境优渥，是小村中颇具声望的富足之家。夫妻二人本可衣食无忧、乐享天伦，可妻子却始终脾性乖张、好争善辩，整日对丈夫怨怼不休，令丈夫备受煎熬。即便丈夫竭力隐忍，也难展欢颜；纵使自身并无过错，也日日要承受妻子的无端迁怒。最终，妻子不仅对丈夫恶语相向、喋喋不休，更将他逐出家门："滚出去！你这种人不配留在此处！"妻子言辞决绝，丈夫只得黯然离乡。他漫无目的地徒步前行，双腿只是机械地随势而动，直至抵达一处湖畔。抵达湖边后，他正思索如何渡河，却偶遇一只乌龟。因整日跋涉腹中饥馁，见了乌龟便暗想："我饿极了，不如杀了它果腹，再继续赶路。"正当他准备下手时，乌龟忽然开口说话："这位先生，请不要杀我。请带我一同前行！"乌龟接着说道："闭上你的眼睛。"丈夫依言照做，竟顺利渡过湖水，抵达一座华美宅邸。抵达宅邸后，乌龟将他引荐给家族众人，并对家人言道："我在湖畔迷途又饥肠辘辘时，是这位友人带我来到此处。"乌龟的家人盛情款待，为他烹煮米饭，让他得以安睡歇息。然而乌龟的母亲与族人却对他说道："你与我们并非同类，不可久留，还是速速返乡吧。"丈夫答道："好，既然如此，我这便离开。"于是族人赠予他一包熟米、一包盐与一包干辣椒，并叮嘱道："带上这些吧。"丈夫辞别众人后继续赶路。跋涉整日后，他再度饥肠辘辘，便想："如今我饿了，不如拆开他们给的米包先填肚子，之后再继续行程，只是不知前路在何方。"他坐下准备进食，拆开米包时，却发现里面竟是一块黄金；打开盐包，里面则是一块白银；再拆开辣椒包，里面赫然是一块黄铜。丈夫惊得目瞪口呆。此时，一大群人来到了他所在之处，他不知这群人从何而来。只听众人互相商议："此处乃是绝佳之地，我们不如在此建一座村落。"因被妻子逐出家门后无以为家，见众人计划建村，丈夫便留下来与他们一同劳作。他凭借手中的金、银、黄铜，成为了村落的领袖与君主，带领村民辛勤耕作，日渐富足，村民们再也无需为衣食发愁。彼时，被丈夫赶出家门的妻子，家中再无劳力耕作，只能坐吃山空，耗尽了丈夫昔日积攒的稻谷。两三年后，家中米粮殆尽，积蓄全无，她竟不知该向谁求助。后来她听闻河畔的村落富庶安乐，便前往那里乞讨。该村的国王赠予了她所需的食物，她却不知这位国王正是被她逐出门外的丈夫。此后每当粮食耗尽，她便前来乞讨。第三次前来时，国王终于告知她自己的真实身份，并将过往种种与自己的经历娓娓道来。妻子羞愧难当，试图留在村中，可村民们早已知晓她的为人。她无地自容，最终羞愧而死。
