Lazy little people and the fairies under the table

the japanese are very clean.

under their traditional “silent rice” bed, there is always a clean mat.

they eat, sit, walk and sleep on the mat, and they have a mysterious feeling about the mat.

they devoutly believed that there was a host of angel-like little leprechauns beneath the mat, that they were the protectors of the japanese people.

they are most afraid that their careless children will make the mat dirty and make it impossible for them to live.

however, there are some lazy people among japanese children.

legend has it that hokkaido had a little lazy guy named sadako a long time ago.

since she was a child, sadako has had a mouth, a dress and a large group of servants around her, and as long as she coughs, the servants will serve her comfortably.

it's been a long time, until she's seventeen, and sadako can't even wash her hands, and none of the young men in her neighborhood fell in love with her.

however, it is a coincidence that one time a famous samurai from tokyo proposed to sadako when he visited his father in honor.

the samurai, though broke, was brave, handsome and suddenly won the heart of sadako.

soon they got married, away from their parents and came to tokyo.

it doesn't matter that poor sadako doesn't have the money to serve her maid all day, but she can't even wash her hands.

as a result, she was lying on her back every day, like a dying patient, and had to be served exclusively by her husband.

after three meals a day,

always throws picky toothpicks under the mat.

for a long time, a pile of dirty and stinking toothpicks piled under the mat, causing the leprechauns to sleep.

soon after, the husband marched.

just over two o'clock on the night of the first day and suddenly sadako woke up by a strange sound.

under the dim lights, she saw a large group of high-ranking soldiers coming out of the mat, waving their swords, saying words in their mouths, turning their mouths at the chastity and slamming them.

"ah!" sadako was in a state of shock and couldn't get away.

but it was late that the dwarfs had come up and torn the covers, and countless swords had killed sadako and wounded her, and she fought hard and took away a group.

another one.

it's been a whole night.

sadako is so scared.

every day after that, sadako became thinner and shrouded with horror, but she was afraid to tell the people around her.

half a month later, the husband finally returned.

"honey, what's the matter with you?" when she saw her husband, sadako couldn't stop her fear and pain, she cried and told the brave warriors where she was from.

"i'm hiding in the closet tonight, let me take care of these boys!" the husband's decisiveness finally settled his wife.

it's late at nightsay that scene.

and he went up with a loud shout, and his plentiful wind stunned these short warriors, who were terrified and finally revealed themselves.

"ha! a bunch of dirty toothpicks!" the samurai shouted, and in the joy of victory appeared contempt and surprise.

“who the hell threw the toothpick?” he shouted.

but he didn't get an answer.

because the answer was hidden in the heart of sadako, she was ashamed, her face was red and her head was down in silence.

what the hell is going on here? it was the little leprechauns who used to do the trick of turning these toothpicks into warriors to trick lazy sadako.

at this moment, the wives' repentance fell into the eyes of the leprechauns, and they departed with satisfaction.

and it's true that since then, sadako has changed and has become very hardworking.

there were no more dirty toothpicks she threw under the mat.

the leprechauns have no more moves。
