2. One summer night, when Tenali Raman and his
wife were about to sleep, he heard a rustling
sound of leaves coming from outside. He looked
around the room once to be sure. There was not
even a slightest breeze blowing at the time, so he
presumed that there were some thieves hiding in
the bushes. He figured that they must be
planning to rob his house in the night.
He thought of a plan and said to his wife, "My
dear, I have heard that some notorious thieves
are on the loose in our neighbourhood.
So, let’s hide all the jewellery and money that
we have in the well. We must make sure to
protect our gold!"
A little later, Tenali Raman and his wife came out
of the house carrying a big trunk, and dropped it
into the well. Then they went back inside the
house, and pretended
to be asleep.
The thieves waited for a while and then started
drawing water from the well.
They hoped to empty the well and get the
treasure. The thieves kept drawing out water the
entire night. Towards daybreak, as they were
feeling very exhausted, they managed to pull out
the trunk. When they opened it, they were
extremely shocked and disappointed to see only
some big stones in it.
They understood that it was Tenali Raman’s plan
to outsmart them. Just then, Tenali Raman came
out of his house and said,“Thank you friends, for
watering my plants. I must pay you for your
labour.”
Hearing this, the thieves fell at Tenali’s feet for
forgiveness. They promised not to steal or rob
anyone ever again.Tenali decided to let them go.
Moral- Keeping cool and using your wit in dire
situations can help you get out of them.
