The mouse deer and the farmer

Once upon a time, there lived a clever mouse deer called sikancil. He loved cucumber so much. One day he walked around the jungle, and then he went out to a village. There, he found a cucumber field. He was so happy about that, and in no time he ate so many cucumbers. He leaved to jungle as soon as he was full.

When the farmer went to his lovely cucumber field, he found his field broken. Sad and angry, he wondered who dare tore his cucumber field apart. And then he remembered sikancil, he swear that he would catch that animal and cook him. So he made a plan to catch him. He set a scarecrow at his field to catch kancil or at least to save his plants.

The next day, kancil went there again to eat more cucumbers. When he got there, he found someone behind the plants. He thought that was the farmer, so he decided to wait him go away. That was the safest way to eat cucumber.  He waited all the day, when he realized, that was not the farmer, it was only a scarecrow. He kicked that scarecrow angrily. But that scarecrow had been glued, so that his leg stuck to the scarecrow.

The farmer found him and took him, then he put si kancil inside a cage, he wanted to cook that animal, he asked his wife to prepare the other materials. He told his dog to guard kancil so that he could not escapee from the cage. The dog guarded him.

Then kancil made a trick for the dog, he told the dog that the farmer would bring him and farmer’s family on a holiday, and the dog wouldn’t be brought with them. After a long negotiation, the dog agreed to sit inside the cage, and let kancil go. So that he would go on holiday with his master. Finally kancil escaped that cage and go away, leaving the dog which was trapped inside the cage.

Moral value:       You’ll need manner despite your cleverness.
