Once there were two brothers. Nolbu, the older one, was rich and greedy(贪婪的), Hyungbu, the younger brother, was poor and generous.

One day when Hyungbu's seven children were hungry, he went to ask his brother for rice to feed them. But when his sister-in-law(嫂子) saw Hyungbu, she did not want to give him any rice. Instead she hit him on the cheek with the rice spoon. Hyungbu was so hungry that he ate the little bit of rice on his face. Then he turned the other cheek and told her to hit him again. This time she hit him with a clean spoon.

On his way home, Hyungbu found a swallow whose leg was broken. He took care of it until it was well, and then let it fly away.

When spring came, the swallow brought Hyungbu a gourd seed(葫芦籽) to plant. In the fall, after he harvested the gourds, Hyungbu opened one of them. Gold coins poured out! He became a rich man.

Nolbu was jealous(嫉妒的) because his younger brother now had a big house with a beautiful garden. He wanted to know how Hyungbu became so rich. So Hyungbu told him exactly what had happened. On the way home from Hyungbu's house, Nolbu found a swallow. He broke its leg, and then cared for it. After it got better, he let it fly away. The following year, the swallow brought him a gourd seed, Nolbu did just what Hyungbu had done.
