Passage 11

In English

Perform meritorious deeds

Once there lived a wealthy man with his old parents. In this modern age, people do not treat their parents with due respect. Some of them think it proper to send them to an old age home when they grow old. This wealthy man and his wife also thought in the same manner. They constructed a small room in the verandah and asked their parents to stay there, since they considered it a big botheration to accommodate them inside their house.
