One day a student was walking with a teacher and they noticed a pair of old shoes.They thought the shoes might belong to a poor farmer.The owner of the shoes was working in a field nearby* and had nearly finished his work.
The student said to the teacher,“Let’s play a joke on the man.We hide his shoes,and wait to see what he will do when he cannot find them.”
“My young friend,” answered the teacher,“we should never make fun of others.Instead,put a coin into each shoe,and watch what will happen.”
The student did so,and hid nearby.
