The Farmhand and the Landlord

The Farmhand and the Landlord

There was a poor man who worked for a landlord. The landlord made the man work hard all day long. But he paid him very little money, and didn't give him much food.

One day, when the man was having breakfast, the landlord came and  said to him, "It's too much trouble to go to work and then come back for lunch, then go to the fields again and come back for supper. So I want you to have your breakfast and lunch and supper now before you go to the fields."

How could a man eat three meals all together? But the farmhand said, "All right." He finished his breakfast and went out. Half an hour later, when the landlord went out for a walk, he saw the farmhand sitting under a tree and smoking. The landlord was very angry.

"Why aren't you working in the fields?" he asked.

The farmhand said with a smile, "I've already had my supper. And you know very well that after supper it's time to rest."

Answer the questions.

1. Who worked for a landlord?


2. What and how much did the landlord pay the poor man?
