First of all, it is very important to comment about the phrase.

In english it is called idiom which is defined as an expression whose meaning is not predictable from the usual meaning of its constituent elements. (Source: dictionary).

In this case the meaning of phrase " you had to carry a bucket".

Answer:

This is the story of a lazy man who was a friend of a king. One morning, the lazy man asked the king

“Why everyone says that I can’t do anything? And even when I go to get a proper job, everyone refuses me. My enemies have told everyone that I never do any work on time.“

The king said,

“Let’s make a deal. before sunset, you come to my treasury and collect as much gold and pearls as you can. They will all be yours.“

The man rushed towards his home to his wife. He explained everything and then after hearing the husband, the wife said, “Go and get the gold and gems now. Time is gold for you”

The lazy man sat down and said, “I can’t go now, give me lunch first.”

after having lunch, he decided to take a nap but instead, slept for 2 hours. Then, late in the afternoon, he picked a few bags and went towards the king’s treasury. On the way, he felt hot. So, he sat down under a tree to rest and ended up sleeping for another 5 hours.

When he finally reached the palace it was already late in the evening, it was the time for sunset. Therefore, the palace gates had been shut before he could reach there.

He lost the golden chance to get rich just because, he didn’t know the value of the time.

Moral of the Story:

Time is precious. Spend it wisely and stop wasting time on unimportant things.

Explanation:

Time is valuable and when you take your time and do things right then you'll get praise and get better at it and be able to do it faster.
