One day, Tony's mother goes to the river to do some washing. Before she leaves (出发)，she says to him, "Tony, when I am away, stay near the door and watch it all the time! " She says this because she is afraid of the thieves.
Tony sits down beside the door. After an hour, one of his uncle comes. He asks Tony: "Where is your mother? " "She has gone to the river to do some washing," Tony answers." Well," says his uncle, "Now it is one forty-five. Three hours later we ate going to visit your family. Go and tell her about it, for I'm too busy. I have to hurry…"
After his uncle is away, Tony begins to think: Mother asks me to watch the door all the time and my uncle tells me to go and tell my mother. What shall I do?" He thinks and thinks. Finally, he pulls down the door, puts it on his back and goes to the river with it.
