once upon a time there was a a loving family that were faced with trying times. they were very poor and lived next to a very rich family. the poor man was working one day when he fell into a hole and cut his leg, his foot was stuck under ground and there was no one to help him, so his wound festered and rotted and he had his leg cut off. the family needed money to plant the grain for the next harvest , jobs were few, but his neighbor had money all the father had to do was ask for a loan. but he had pride and was ashamed that he would have to beg.
his wife beeged him to let her go, she had seen the rich man gazing at her with longing eyes
but his son intervened, no father if I go i will sweep the daughter off her feet with my humble charm and inherit all their wealth
and his daughter said no father i will go I can easily be employed you know i'm good for hard work
now the father made his choise. and he gave them his reason who was it?

He allowed his wife to go.
You see, his plan did not end there. Later on, after the family had been given more than enough money from the rich sap, the husband found the man in his bedroom with his wife. He shot him and killed him. Self defense was his claim and he was a free man.
He inherited the wealthy man's everything because his wife was left everything in the will. They lived happily ever after. Kind of...

He simply went to the local TV station, and told them how unfair it was that someone should have so much when he had so little. Then the community got behind him, and they all began to torment the rich man - telling him it's not fair for him to keep his money. (Nevermind that he was willing to loan the man anything he needed. The media thought the rich man should simply give his money away.)
After a few months of this, the rich man and all of the other rich people in the community left and took all of their money with them - leaving everyone there broke and hungry because he was no longer spending his money there.
Everyone starved and died. The end.
Moral? Don't hate the rich. Without them, you wouldn't have a job.

He decided, all for one and one for all... and maximise all potential... The man for the pity vote, the wife for potential affair (a bit of Indecent Proposal), the son to sow his oats (no pun intended for the grain for the next harvest) and the daughter could go and work the streets...

he went himself... he said that if the rest of the family was willing to give up themselves to save this family at the very least he should try. He also said he was proud of them for showing him the true meaning of love and ashamed of himself for allowing them to get in this situation. Pride goes before a fall.

I think that if he was a proud and honest man he must have chosen the daughter; hard work is an honourable way to make one's living.
