"The Story of the Fisherman and the Goldfish"
It is a fairy tale written in narrative poetry. A fisherman caught a talking goldfish, and the goldfish said that if he released it, his wish would be fulfilled. The fisherman's wife was always dissatisfied and made one request after another to the little goldfish.
The old woman’s endless pursuit turned into greed. From the initial poverty, she then had glory and prosperity, and finally returned to her previous poverty. The story tells us that there is nothing wrong with pursuing a better life situation, but the key is to be moderate. The result of excessive greed will definitely be nothing.
