Gluttony People
Once upon a time there was a hunter who got two mouse deer, one big and one small, after that he came home and he cut them into pieces so they could cook quickly when his wife cooked them. When he cut it, he took the deer's heart, then told his son to bake the deer's heart, after cooking his son gave it to his father. First he ate the small deer's heart then he ate the big deer's heart, unfortunately for him it had not been cut into pieces so that when he swallowed, he choked until he could not escape from his throat.
The children shouted for their mother from the garden as well as their relatives to help their father, after arriving the brothers and the villagers asked why something like this could happen. The son of the hunter told that his father had swallowed the deer's heart that had not been cut. Then they patted the hunter's back until it came out and released the deer's heart that was stuck in his throat.
After that incident, jokes were always heard, for example, if there was a meeting in the village and if it was too late the hunter came and they asked who had not arrived and the others answered that only one more person was it.. the one who choked on the deer's heart answered another.
Sometimes the hunter is embarrassed, let's say his name is Ama Wadege if other people make fun of him for what has happened to him. There was one close friend and they were talking about how not to mention that word to him again. This friend gave advice to entertain the villagers by slaughtering a pig so that the ridicule would not be mentioned again
Amawadege received input from his friend and they called the villagers and entertained them by slaughtering three pigs. After that, Amawadege tried to find out if he had stopped mentioning that name by telling his friends to spy on the villagers.
The person went and spies by listening to whether the villagers have stopped mentioning the name of the mockery at Amawadege.
Apparently, Amawadege's spies listened when the villagers said that our meal from the person who choked on the deer's heart was not enough, they wanted a little more. Amawadege spies again and he tells them that word is still being used. Then Amawadege asked for input from his friend so that they stop mentioning the name, then his friend suggested that the villagers should be given herbal medicine once again and the pork that would be served should be halved so that they are satisfied and stop saying those words.
Amawadege accepted his friend's suggestion and once again called the villagers and was entertained and the pig that was slaughtered was only divided in half so that everyone would be satisfied and not mention the same name as Amawadege.
After they separated, Amawadege then told his friend to spy on the villagers to see if they had stopped saying that word. When his friend left, he listened to the words of the village people, apparently the villagers still said the word of ridicule was the same as amawadege, they said, the dinner from Amawadege who choked on the heart of the mouse deer, then we were satisfied because we got a large portion. Then Amawadege's friend went home and didn't tell him that the word was still being mentioned by the villagers.
This story means
1. Once we make a mistake, lie then we are always noticed by others
2. People who do not want to share "greedy" always have a risk.
