"What Dad Does Is Always Right"
Synopsis: What is the definition of happiness? After reading this story, we learn that people have different perspectives on happiness. For those who share the same view on happiness, living together is truly a blessing. Dad traded a fine horse for a cow, then exchanged the cow for a goose, used the goose to trade for chickens, and finally traded the chickens for a bag of apples. To everyone's surprise, his wife was deeply impressed by Dad's actions and even kissed him—this is also a form of happiness! The two gentlemen who bet with Dad that his wife would get angry lost, realizing that they were truly very happy and changing their perspective as a result.
