There was once a farmer who had a fine olive orchard .He was very hardworking,and the farm always prospered under his care.But he knew that his three sons despised the farm work,and were eager to make wealth,trough adventure.
When the farmer was old,and felt that his time had come to die,he called the three sons to him and said,"My sons,there is a pot of gold hidden in the olive orchard.Dig for it,if you wish it."
The sons tried to get him to tell them in what part of the orchard the gold was hidden; but he would tell them nothing more.
After the farmer was dead,the sons went to work to find the pot of gold; since they did not know where the hiding-place was,they agreed to begin in a line,at one end of the orchard,and to dig until one of them should find the money.
They dug until they had turned up the soil from one end of the orchard to the other,round the tree-roots and between them.But no pot of gold was to be found.It seemed as if someone must have stolen it,or as if the farmer had been wandering in his wits.The three sons were bitterly disappointed to have all their work for nothing.
The next olive season,the olive trees in the orchard bore more fruit than they had ever given; when it was sold,it gave the sons a whole pot of gold.
And when they saw how much money had come from the orchard,they suddenly understood what the wise father had meant when he said,"There is gold hidden in the orchard.Dig for it,if you wish it."
从前有一个农民,他有一座漂亮的橄榄园.他非常勤劳,而且农场在他的照管下蒸蒸日上.可他知道自己的三个儿子瞧不起农活,都迫不及待的想通过冒险发家致富.
这个农民上了年岁,感到死期快要来临时,将三个儿子叫到身边说：“儿子们,橄榄园里藏有一罐金子.你们想要,就去挖吧.”
儿子们想让父亲告诉他们金子藏在果园的那一块地方,可他什么也没再给他们说.
那个农民死后,三个儿子就开始挖地,想找到那罐金子；因为他们不知道金子藏在什么地方,所以他们一致同意排成一行从果园的一头开始挖起,知道其中一人挖到金子为止.
他们挖啊挖,从果园的一头一直挖到了另一头,果树周围和果树之间也都挖到了,可还是没有找到那罐金子.看来一定是有人已经把那罐金子头走了,要么就是他们的父亲一直在异想天开.三个儿子对他们白干了一场,感到大失所望.
到了第二年的橄榄季节,果园里的橄榄树接出的果子比以往的都多；卖完果子后,三个儿子赚了整整一罐金子.
他们从果园里得到这么多钱后,突然明白了聪明的父亲所说的“果园里藏有金子,想要就去挖吧”这句话的含义.
希望可以帮助你,祝你天天向上.

塞翁失马
战国时期，靠近北部边城，住着一个老人，名叫塞翁。塞翁养了许多马，一天，他的马群中忽然有一匹走失了。邻居们听说这件事，跑来安慰，劝他不必太着急，年龄大了，多注意身体。塞翁见有人劝慰，笑了笑说：“丢了一匹马损失不大，没准会带来什么福气呢。”
邻居听了塞翁的话，心里觉得很好笑。马丢了，明明是件坏事，他却认为也许是好事，显然是自我安慰而已。过了几天，丢失的马不仅自动返回家，还带回一匹匈奴的骏马。
邻居听说了，对塞翁的预见非常佩服，向塞翁道贺说：“还是您有远见，马不仅没有丢，还带回一匹好马，真是福气呀。”
塞翁听了邻人的祝贺，反而一点高兴的样子都没有，忧虑地说：“白白得了一匹好马，不一定是什么福气，也许惹出什么麻烦来。”
邻居们以为他故作姿态纯属老年人的狡猾。心里明明高兴，有意不说出来。
塞翁有个独生子，非常喜欢骑马。他发现带回来的那匹马顾盼生姿，身长蹄大，嘶鸣嘹亮，膘悍神骏，一看就知道是匹好马。他每天都骑马出游，心中洋洋得意。
一天，他高兴得有些过火，打马飞奔，一个趔趄，从马背上跌下来，摔断了腿。邻居听说，纷纷来慰问。
塞翁说：“没什么，腿摔断了却保住性命，或许是福气呢。”邻居们觉得他又在胡言乱语。他们想不出，摔断腿会带来什么福气。
不久，匈奴兵大举入侵，青年人被应征入伍，塞翁的儿子因为摔断了腿，不能去当兵。入伍的青年都战死了，唯有塞翁的儿子保全了性命。
Near China's northern borders lived a man well versed in the practices of Taoism. His horse, for no reason at all, got into the territory of the northern tribes. Everyone commiserated with him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.
After a few months, his animal came back, leading a fine horse from the north. Everyone congratulated him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a cause of misfortune," said his father.
Since he was well-off and kept good horses his son became fond of riding and eventually broke his thigh bone falling from a horse. Everyone commiserated with him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.
One year later, the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. All able-bodied young men took up arms and fought against the invaders, and as a result, around the border nine out of ten men died. This man's son did not join in the fighting because he was crippled and so both the boy and his father survived.
