She behaves to elite her family with
her husband leaving her parent’s fame aside.
When she was young in her parent’s
family she used to refuse to drink the milk mixed with sweet honey. Her step
mother tried to feed her it having in a gold cup. While she refused to drink, the
step mother threatens her with a small beating stick, to eat. Even then she refused
to drink and plays running all along the thatched shed making sound in her
anklet (Silambu) in leg filled with pearls. She has born in such a rich family.
Now, she is leading a poor family with
her husband. It is suffering from poverty. She has received some food from her
parent’s house. She refuses to eat it. To solve the poverty, she starves one
time and postpones eating it another time.
Where she has learned such a proud of culture
and appreciating habit, the mother astonishes.
