    A father in a Chinese village wanted to test which of his three sons was the smartest, so he built a hut and said it would belong to whichever son could fill it completely. The oldest son brought a horse that only filled one corner, while the second son's load of hay only filled half. The youngest son, thought to be a fool, lit a candle inside that filled the entire hut with light, proving he was the smartest, and the father gave him the hut.

    Along time ago in China, there lived a father in a village with his three sons.

    People said that the first


    and second son were very clever but the third lad was simple and a fool. One day, the father wanted
    to test all his three sons. He wanted to see who was the smartest son. He built a hut at the edge of his
    pasture. He said to his sons, “I am giving this small house to one of you. It will belong to the one who
    can fill it completely. Not even a corner is to be left empty.”
    Then the oldest son tried the quiz. He bought a horse and brought it into the hut. However, the
    horse only filled one corner of the house. Then the second son tried to fill the hut with a load of hay,
    but the hay only filled a half of the hut.
    Then it was the third son’s chance. He thought a lot about what to do. “Now I know the
    answer,” he said, He bought a candle and rushed to the hut. Then he put the candle in the middle of
    the hut and lit it. What happened? The hut was full of light, every corner, nook and cranny. Now, the
    father knew that the youngest son, whom everyone thought was a fool, was the smartest. Finally, the
    father gave the hut to him.
