Story: The Mistaken Plate

The Best Policy | Term 3 Chapter 1

Once upon a time, there lived a merchant who sold things made of brass and tin. He used to travel across the rivers and mountains to sell.

LET US READ

The Mistaken Plate

Once upon a time, there lived a merchant who sold things made of brass and tin. He used to travel across the rivers and mountains to sell. He usually travelled with another merchant, who also sold things made of brass and tin. They also used to buy things made of different metals to melt and use. The second merchant was always greedy as he tried to pay as less as possible.

One day, when they went to a town, they divided the streets of the town. They did not want to disturb each other while selling. They moved through the streets they had chosen and called, “Utensils made of brass and tin for sale!”

In an old house, there lived a woman and her granddaughter. They were once a wealthy family but now lived in poverty. They only had one plate left as a memory of their wealth. The grandmother kept the plate in memory of her husband.

The greedy merchant passed this house saying, “Utensils made of brass and tin for sale!”

The granddaughter heard him and said to her grand mother, “Ammama, please buy something for me.”

She replied, “Kanna, we do not have money to buy anything. We do not have anything to trade with.”

The granddaughter said, “We have that one old plate that we don't use. Let’s see what the merchant will offer for it. We can get something we can use.”

Ammama called the merchant and showed him the plate. She asked, “Will you take this plate and give any of your utensils?”

The man took the plate and scratched it with a needle. He found that it was a golden plate. He said, “What is it worth? Not even one rupee.”

He threw the plate on the ground and walked away.

Both the merchants completed their streets. They had decided that either of them could go to any house that the other did not sell in. The first merchant passed the same old house and called, “Utensils made of brass and tin for sale!”

The little girl again asked her Ammama to check.

She said, “Kanna, the first merchant threw the plate and went away. I have nothing else to offer.”

The girl replied, “Grandma, that merchant was angry. This merchant looks nice. Maybe we will get something.”

Ammama asked the girl to call the merchant and show the plate. The merchant took the plate in his hands and found that it was made of gold. He said, “I am not rich enough to buy this plate. This is a gold plate.”

Ammama said, “Are you sure? This is gold? The other merchant threw this on the ground and went away."

The merchant said, “I do not know why he did that. If you wish to sell it, take all the dishes you want.”

The little girl took some dishes of her choice but, the merchant was not happy. So, he gave all his money, his donkey, his cart and his wares to Ammama. He only kept eight rupees for the ferry home.

He quickly went towards the river. He paid the eight rupees to the boatman to take him across the river. Soon, the greedy merchant went back to the old house. He called the girl and said, “I've changed my mind. I will give you ten rupees for it."

Ammama said, “You considered the plate worthless, but another merchant has paid a huge price for it and took it."

4th English Term 2 Unit 1 Prose: Appa - Story & Glossary

4th English : Term 2 Unit 1 : Affection

Prose: Appa

Keeraikuppam was a small coastal village near Nagapatinam. Even though the people in the village toiled in the seas every day, they lived happily.

Let Us Learn

It was a pleasant Sunday morning in December. Just like any other day, the villagers had started their routine. A few of them had already left to the sea, and the others were preparing to go to sea. Meena‛s family was also at the shore to see off her father going to the sea. After the men sailed into the sea, the women would return to other tasks that need their attention. The children would play under the many coconut trees in the village.

The village bell was about to strike eight times. The bell caretaker was ready to ring the bell. Just then, he saw that the sea water had receded a few hundred metres. Soon, many in the village noticed the same. All the children and the villagers started running towards the sea. Meena and her mother were also with them. The seawater continued to recede. All had gathered along the shore to see it. The bell hit eight times. People now saw a wave far away in the sea. Excitedly, they pointed to the wave that was raising high in the sea. It was common for people to be excited by big waves in Keeraikuppam. Everyone was getting ready to brace the big wave that was coming towards them. Little did they know that the wave was increasing in height and would seem to touch the sky as it neared them. It was now getting closer to the shore with a roar.

Gazing at the wave far away, Meena‛s mother felt a sudden fear gripping her. She felt that something was wrong. She caught Meena by her hand and started running towards their home. The wave came closer to the shore had crushed the fishing boats. Before they reached their home, the powerful wave had hit the village. Meena and her mother could hear their friends and family screaming all around them. The seawater entered the village and washed out the huts and boats. The water hit their hut too. Meena and her mother were separated and thrown off. Then, slowly, the water receded again into the sea. Meena‛s mother gathered herself and searched for Meena. It was then that the second massive wave hit the village. Meena‛s mother was washed away by the wave. Meena, whirled through the water, struggling to breathe. One moment she was inside the water, and all was dark around her. In the next, she could see the sky. The wave banged her to the trunk of a coconut tree. She wrestled the wave and firmly hugged the tree. Soon, she fainted.

When she woke up, she was in the hospital. After she recovered, they transferred her to a rehabilitation centre. The centre housed nearly 99 boys and girls. A kind-hearted official of the centre was always very kind to the children. He often used to visit them with his family. Meena was the youngest of all and soon was loved by all. The incharge and his wife often carried Meena while they played with other children. All children used to call them Amma and Appa. After three years the official was transferred. He and his family continued to visit the centre once a year for the next five years.

Meena now opened her eyes. Her cheeks were moist. All this seemed like it happened yesterday. The school bell rang and, Meena wiped her cheeks to get ready for her English class. Meena was good at studies and now was in the twelfth standard. The teacher was teaching, and Meena was writing her notes. She then heard a familiar voice calling her, “Meenu”. She raised her head to see. She was surprised to see her father, the official standing at the entrance. He was smiling at her. She stared at him blankly for a few seconds, with tears rolling down her cheeks. She jumped out of her bench and dashed towards him, calling “Appa!”.

Have you seen the monuments with names and drawings scribbled by people? Do you think is it correct to do this? Write your views.

Yes, I have seen monuments with names and drawing scribbled by people. I do not think it is correct. These ancient buildings and monuments are a great historical value. We should not damage them by writing on them. We should protect them because they are a part of our cultural heritage.
