MOUSE DEER STEALS CUCUMBERS

Once there were a mouse deer and a farmer. The farmer planted cucumber in his farm. In
the same time the mouse deer was trying to steal the cucumbers.
One day, when the mouse deer wanted to steal the cucumber, he saw a scarecrow int the
farmers field. He was frightened in the first time but soon found that the scarecrow could not
scare off him. Even he punched the scarecrow with his front leg. Unluckily his front leg got stuck
in the scarecrow because the farmer had filled it with strong adhesive glue.
The mouse deer forcefully tried to pull out his leg, but it did not work. The glue was too
strong for him to set free. Not long after that, the farmer came. The farmer was satisfied to his
work. The mouse deer was finally trapped. Then the farmer put the mouse deer in a cage.
The mouse deer was really in a big trouble as the farmers dog came approaching him.
The dog said that the mouse deer would be cut and cooked for the following morning. In such
dangerous situation, the mouse deer kept calm even relaxed. Of course it made the dog confused
and asked the mouse deer why he was not scared. So the mouse deer answered, Ill not be
cooked but Ill be a prince Hearing the answer, the dog became more confused then the mouse
deer continued. Im going to marry the farmers daughter so Im going to be a prince. I am sad
about you. You have loyalties but they are paid just like this The mouse deer knew that the dog
felt unhappy and continued proudly, Now, look at me! Ill become a prince in this house
tomorrow
 The dog felt discriminated and asked the mouse deer to switch place. The dog thought
that by switching place with the mouse deer in the cage, he would become a prince. The mouse
deer agreed. Soon the dog opened the cage and let the mouse deer free.
