The lazy boy’s grave was a topic of discussion, and his grandfather forbade him from neglecting his studies, punishing him with a few strokes. The boy cried out loudly. Just then, his father returned home and, upon seeing the scene, became furious. However, not knowing what to do, he took a stick and hit himself while saying:
– If you hit my son, I will hit yours!
The grandfather also lost his temper and retorted:
– Oh, if you hit my child, I will hang your father!
Then, in a hurry, he went to get the rope to carry out his threat.
