    Once upon a time there were two brothers who divided an inheritance at the death of their parents.

    The elder, greedy and stingy, took all the wealth and left to his younger brother and his wife only a dilapidated hut and a star fruit tree with juicy but stunted fruits.

    But the two younger spouses hardly complained and were contented with this meager share.

    They took care of their star fruit tree and watered it in such a way that the tree took back it vigor and bore lots of fruits.

    When the star fruits began to ripe, a extraordinarily large raven came every morning to eat them.

    No matter what they did, it was impossible for the couple to chase the bird away.
