Once there was a tailor, who was very contentious. His wife was a good, humble and hardworking, but never could please him. Whatever you do, he was unhappy - drove her, plucking her hair and beat her. One day came guards caught him and brought to justice. Condemned him and threw him into prison. As I sat for a while, let it free, but made him promise mclaneco that he would never beat his wife and shares her love and grief, as befits between man and woman. At first everything went well, but soon the tailor again became rowdy and started to drive his wife. And because he was forbidden to beat her, she decided to pluck hair. Poor woman fled, every time out, and he rushes after her with yardstick and scissors in hand. When you managed to catch her, laughed, but when he failed, started furiously mclaneco screaming. So continued until the neighbors came to their aid. Tailor caught and took him to court. It reminded him of what he promised, and he said: - Kind gentlemen judges me this promise. mclaneco I was his wife and I shared with her love and grief. - How? - Asked judges. - Here she again complained of you. - I just wanted to smooth her hair - replied the tailor - because it looked terrible. mclaneco She tricked me and ran away. I rushed after her with scissors and yardstick in hand to get her to come back and do his homework. After all he shares with her love and grief? Only when I managed to catch it for me was cheerful, and her grief was. And when he failed, she was glad her and for me it was grief. But the judges were not satisfied with this response and tailor punished fairly.
