Description:This is a story about two children who speak in riddles. A passerby cannot understand what they mean when they talk about their father being away killing, and their mother sewing. The person tells the king, how is fascinated by these riddle-speaking children. Eventually it is revealed that the children's father is cutting (killing) grass, and their mother is sewing grain. The king gives them a gift for their clever talking. This story features in the picture book compilation. Transcription in book 2014-2 p 35-37.
