This story is about two sisters who have different experiences with a chore which was to get water from the spring that they were sent to do by their Mother. The younger of the two (which the mother doesn’t care for that much) had a great experience at the spring when she was to go get water. She got the experience of helping out an elderly women and got rewarded very greatly for being generous and kind by helping her. The elder daughter was sent to the spring upon request of her mother after her mother had seen what the youngest daughter was awarded for helping. The elder daughter didn’t have the greatest of luck, like her younger sister did. The elder daughter was very rude and not helpful towards the lady at the spring which wasn’t helpful towards her own situation.
