Once upon a time, a kind farmer lived in a village. He had a small field outside the village. He planted crops there. He sold the crops to feed his small family and lived happily.
The farmer was a helpful person. He always reached out to help others in need. One cold morning, he was getting ready to work in his field, as he usually did. People were not outside their homes yet. He decided to go to his field when the sun was just about to rise.
As he was about to reach his field, he found a venomous (有毒的) snake lying near a bush. It was really cold that day, and the snake was dying. The cold had got to him badly. The snake was lying stiff on the ground. The freezing temperature did not let him move.
The farmer felt sorry for the snake and started thinking of ways to save his life. He knew that the snake was venomous but still wanted to give him a chance to survive. He could not let the snake die like this.
He hugged the snake to warm him up. The snake felt the little heat and started to wake up. Finally, the snake was able to move on his own. The farmer still kept on warming him with his body heat.
After some time, the snake was ready to move. The snake suddenly realised that a man was holding him closer to his body. Within a moment, he bit the farmer without realising that he had saved his life.
The farmer was shocked. He felt terrible pain in his body. He sat down, thinking about why he saved the snake, just so it could bite him. He told the others standing around him to learn from his mistake.
