Chapter 16 The Story of Judt and Two Brothers-11

That night, Judt went into the house, took out forty plates of food from his saddle bag, went back to the living room, sat down with his brother, and said to his mother, "Mom, give us dinner." His mother came in and saw the food. After it was taken out, the tablecloth was spread, and the dishes were brought out one by one, forming a sumptuous feast.Mother and son sat down to eat and drink.After the meal, Jut told his brother again: "Let's share the remaining meals with the poor." They did so, and took out the meals and gave them to the poor. After returning home, Judt took out the sweets and ate them again.After eating, he said, "Give the rest to the neighbors."

The next day, they also ate and drank and enjoyed themselves.From then on, they ate and drank to their heart's content, and their lives were very rich. After ten days like this, his brothers felt strange. The eldest Sall and the second Moyao got together and came up with a plan. When Judt was not at home, they secretly made an appointment to see his mother and said, "Mom." , we are hungry." "Wait a minute, I'll get you something to eat." She went into the room as she spoke, took out food and drink from the saddle bag, and brought them to eat and drink. "Mom, you didn't light a fire to cook, why did you eat hot food?"

"Ugh! It's out of a saddlebag." "Saddle bags? What's the matter?" "The saddlebags were enchanted and had talismans..." She told her two sons the truth, and ordered: "You guys have to keep it a secret!" "Yes. But I wish mother would tell us, how do you get your food?" She told her two sons everything again. They followed suit and got food as expected.All this is hidden from Judt.After they understood the function of the saddlebag, they were ambitious and wanted to seize the saddlebag. Sall said to Moyo: "Brother, we can't hold our heads up in front of the third child, and live on his charity. When will this be over? Why don't we think of a way to grab the saddlebags?"

"Is there any way to get it?" "Let's trick and sell my brother to the leader of the Sushi area." "How can I trick him into selling him?" "I'll go to Sushi with you, and ask the boss to bring two fellows to our house for dinner. As for my brother, I will persuade him. You wait and see me tonight." Sall and Moyo conspired to betray Judt, and the two invited them to the home of the leader of the Nassus area, and said to him: "Master! We came to see you because there is something that makes you happy." "Oh? What's the matter?" The leader welcomed.

"The two of us are brothers. In addition, there is a naughty and useless younger brother. After my father passed away, he left a property and divided it into three parts. He took one part and squandered it all. Our troubles are due to our property. We are forced to sue him, spend a lot of money, and make us poor. That's it, he won't let us go, so we're going to sell him. Buy him, my lord. Bar." "You've managed to trick him into coming here, and I'll send him to hard labor soon." "That can't be done. It's better to take two people to my house tonight. We will help you after he is asleep. Five people will catch him together, stop him with wood, and take him away in the dark." , then treat him as you like."

"I see, let's do it like this. I'll offer forty gold coins, how about it?" "Sell! You bring someone here tonight, we'll wait for you at the alley." "Okay, you guys go back." Sall and Moyo returned home and chatted with Judt for a while, and Sall walked up to Judt and kissed his hand.Judt felt strange and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?" "Brother, there is one thing I am very embarrassed about. It is like this. I have a good friend who often invites me to dinner when you are not at home. Today I went to visit him and he invited me to dinner again. I said: 'No, I have to be with my brother." He said: "Let your brother come too." I said: "He doesn't want to come, so you and your brother should come to my house for dinner." Knowing that he readily agrees, he promises to bring his brother to my house for dinner tonight. I am afraid that you don't want to see them, so I ask your opinion, can I invite them to dinner in your name? If it is not convenient, I have to go to the neighbor's house Go entertain him."

"Why go to the neighbor's house? Is it because our house is too narrow to accommodate them? Is it because we have nothing to entertain them? There is no need to discuss this kind of matter with me. Our family situation has improved, and the food is rich enough to entertain guests. In the future, someone will come When I come to my house, and I’m not here, you can ask your mother for food, and she will give it to you. Well, you go invite them, good luck will follow the guests to visit our house.” Salle thanked Judt a thousand times, kissed Judt, and went out to wait until the sun went down.Sure enough, the leader and others came as scheduled.

Salle hurriedly led them into the house.Judt greeted the guests in a friendly manner, asked them to sit down, and chatted with them.Judt didn't know the bad intentions of the visitors, so he received them kindly and asked his mother to prepare dinner.Judt brought forty plates of delicacies from his saddlebags and served them a feast.The visitor didn't know the details, and he thought it was a guest invited by Sall. After dinner, we chatted for a while.In the evening, Judt took out desserts to treat the guests, and ate until the dead of night before going to bed. When Judt fell asleep, the group crept and moved quietly.When Judt woke up from the dream, his mouth was already stuffed with wooden knots, and his body was firmly bound.Taking advantage of the night, they sent him to the Sushi area.

From then on, he began to live a life of hard labor like a prisoner.
