Once a weaver needed some wood to prepare the loom. He went to a forest. he was about to hit a tree with his axe. At that moment, he heard a devil's sound.
"You fool! don't cut the tree. It is my house" the devil said.
"May be. But I need wood for my loom" the weaver said.
"Is it so? very good. But I have given you a boon. You may ask" the devil said.
Then the weaver thought over the matter. He wished that he would ask his wife. The devil agreed.
The weaver went to his house. On the way he met a barber. The weaver narrated the story to him.
"Is it so? You better ask the devil a palace and you made the king. I would be your minister. let both of us be happy" the barber said.
But the weaver said that he would ask his wife and come.
The barber argued : "You have no wordy knowledge Ladies ask for them only. You do what I say"
But still the weaver came to his house and told his wife.
"You are dull headed. If you become the king can you rule the state? Is it possible for people like us? Don't ask such things. Better ask one more head and two hands so that you can stitch more clothes and earn more money" She said.
The weaver went to forest and asked the devil to grant him one extra head and two more hands. The devil granted him. The weaver now had two heads and four hands. He entered the village happily. But the villagers felt that a giant has entered their village. They hit him with stones. The weaver died.
Moral : Better take suggestions from intelligent people.
