Best English Stories For Kids: The Lazy Son

A rich moneylender used to live in a town with his wife and son. His son Sumit was very lazy. And on the other hand, the moneylender was very hard-working. 

He used to go to the Shiv temple every morning before sunrise and after that, he used to take a round of his farms stable and shop where all his business was spread.

The Moneylender was very upset with his son's lazy attitude. He called, "Son! Wake Up!" let us go to our farm and work together. Sumit replied, "OH! Not now, Dad. Let me sleep for a while."The moneylender got very upset and went to the farm alone.

 After some days, he got very sick and he died soon. Even after the death of his father Sumit did not take any interest in his father's business. Due to that, they were having huge losses in the business.

Seeing this crisis, his mother said to him, Son, we are facing a great loss in the business. So what can I do in this? I don't have any knowledge of the business.
Even I have never gone to the farms with Dad.

His mother continued and asked Sumit, "Do one thing, your grandfather lives in the next village. He has a great knowledge of this business you go and meet him. He must be having a solution to this problem."

Sumit told her mother. 
Alright, mom. I will go tomorrow only the next morning. Sumit went to his grandfather.

"Greetings, grandpa!" Sumit greeted. 
God bless you Son. Tell me how are you after Dad's death? asked grandfather. Sumit answered We are facing a great loss and business. Mom told me that I should come to you for your expertise. Now only you can help us end this.

Your mom is absolutely right! I have a solution to your problem. Tell me, grandpa.
Tell me quickly! His grandfather replied, You just have to do one thing. Like your father, you have to go to Shiv Temple every morning before sunrise and after that, you have to look after all your business. And you have to do this every day. Alright, I will do the same what you told me from the next morning. Sumit left his grandfather and went home.

Sumit started waking up before sunrise. He first went to Shiv Temple and after that, he goes to look after all his business.  Every morning he goes to farms, then raising shop after that to his Stable.  It went on for a few days. 

Seeing him coming to work every day, the labors were discussing with each other, did you see the Boss is coming every day to work now.  Yes, it seems that we have to stop all the cheating now. "Hey, you are right. Otherwise, we will be trapped gradually, " defended the other labor.

All the labor saw that Sumit was taking rounds of the Shop and the Farms and in the fear to be trapped they stopped all the scams. After the closure of the scam, the loss in the business also decreased and Sumit and his mom gradually became rich again.  Oh, Wow! look Mom due to Grandpa's advice we became rich again.

Mother replied to him. You are right, son. You should go to your Grandpa and thank him so much. Sumit did what his mother told and he went to his grandfather. 

"Grandpa, thank you so much!
You have done a miracle just because of you. Our business has flourished again!"

My Son, I have not done anything. You only have done all the hard work.

All these were happening due to your laziness. Just because of your lazy attitude you were not focusing on your business and the labors were taking advantage of that and committed all the scams.

But now you are going to work every day
so they stopped all the scams in fear to be caught and your business has flourished again by listening to your Grandfather.  

He realized his mistake. He left his laziness and started working very hard on his business.

The moral of the story is that laziness is a bad thing. So we must complete our work on time by sacrificing our laziness.
