(Retold by Yoshiko Uchida, 1921-1992)The Wise Old Woman
ca] How many old people are there in your family?
Many years ago, there lived an arrogant and cruel young lord who ruled over a small village in
the western hills of Japan
“I have no use for old people in my village," he said haughtily. “They are neither useful nor able
to work for a living. | therefore decree that anyone over seventy-one must be banished from
the village and left in the mountains to die” i

could not bear to think of leaving his old mother in the
mountains. He climbed, not wanting to stop and leave
her behind. Soon, he heard his mother breaking off small
twigs from the trees that they passed.
"Mother, what are you doing?" he asked.
"Do not worry, my son," she answered gently. "| am just marking the way so you will not get lost

The mother nodded. "Of course, my son,” she replied. “You will always be in my thoughts. How
could it be otherwise?"
At that, the young farmer could bear it no longer.
“Mother, | cannot leave you in the mountains te die all
alone,” he said. "We are going home and no matter
what the lord does to punish me, | will never desert you
again.”
So they waited until the sun had set and a lone star
crept into the sient sky. Then in the dark shadows of
the night, the farmer carried his mother down the hill
and they returned quietly to their little house. The
farmer dug a deep hole in the floor of his kitchen and
made a small room where he could hide his mother.

But the wise men shook their heads. “It is impossible to

can we make one thousand?"
Fools!" the lord cried angrily. "What good is your
wisdom if you cannot help me now?"
He then posted a notice in the village square offering a
great reward of gold to any villager who could help him
save their village.

you look so worried, my son?"
The farmer told her of the impossible demand made by Lord Higa ifthe village was to be
spared, but his mother did not seem troubled at all. Instead she laughed softly and said, "Why,
that is not such an impossible task. All one has to do is soak ordinary rope in salt water and dry
it well. When itis burned, it will hold its shape and there is your rope of ashi ¥alithe villagers to
hurry and find one thousand pieces of rope.”

young lord what he must do.

“Again you act as stupid fools!" the lord said, stamping his foot
impatiently. He then posted a second notice in the village square asking
Villagers for their help. Once more the young farmer hurtied with the new problem to his
mother in her secret room
"Why, that is not so difficult,” his mother said with a quick smile. "Put some sugar at one end of
the hole. Then, tie an ant to a piece of silk thread and put it in at the other end. He will weave
his way in and out of the curves to get to the sugar and he will take the silk thread with him"

gold. “You are a brilliant man and you have saved our village again," he said gratefully.
But the lord's troubles were not over even then, for a few
days later, Lord Higa sent another demand. “This-time you
will undoubtedly fail and then | shall make your village
mine," he threatened. *Bring me a drum that makes sounds

This time the wise men held their heads in their hands and
moaned, “It is hopeless. It is hopeless. This time Lord Higa
will attack us.”
‘The young farmer hurried home breathlessly. "Mother,
