Golden Peacock - Luan Aung Phan

Chapter (2)

When U Thant Sin and his wife Daw Nyein Hla were married, they had grown into a prosperous timber merchant, as their parents had invested a lot of money in them. However, U Thant Sin was a simple man, but in an era when there were many cutthroats and crooks, the simple were often deceived by crooks. U Thant Sin also got involved in dealing with crooks and crooks. When the time came, the wealth he had accumulated for 9 years was destroyed in about a year, and the Luba Palace was destroyed.

Despite such material losses, the husband and wife did not behave like some bankrupt people, such as scolding each other, blaming each other, saying, "He is the cause of the loss, I am the cause of the loss," but they loved each other even more than they had before. U Thant Sin looked at Daw Nyein Hla's face with kindness.

" To be honest, Mae Nyein, I'm just worried about my daughter. If I had my way, the poorer I was, the more good things would have appeared, and I'd almost be happy about being poor."

Daw Nyein Hla said,

" If there weren't some little girl named Ri Ri, I would be happy and even afraid to be rich just by seeing Ko Thantsin's kindness."

"He replied. It is rare for a couple to be so content with each other when they are poor."

The couple had a beautiful daughter named Ri Ri, who was about 12 years old at the time of writing. Judging by Ri Ri's appearance at that age, Ri Ri would not be a grown-up woman, but a girl who would be loved to be held in a hug. One thing was special about this little girl. Every man and woman who saw her could not help but hug and kiss her, and everyone praised her for her pitiful look. Ri Ri was so pitiful in her appearance, her manner, her speech, and her circumstances that it was hard to believe that this was a sign of things to come.

One evening, while looking out of the courtyard, the quiet children's home, Ri Ri saw a student on the street.

" Hey, Ko Ko Win is here, Mom."

"He said to his mother, and ran out happily, holding the boy's hand. Then Maung Win Maung and Yi Yi, holding each other's hands, went up to Daw Nyein Hla. Daw Nyein Hla was cooking a dish that U Thant Sin liked in the kitchen, thinking it would be good.

Okay, Maung Win Maung, are you coming tonight?

Win , Saw So, and Daw Daw have something to discuss. U Kaw Daw Daw. .

Calm down . I'll be back soon. What do you want to discuss, Maung Win?

Win, we have decided to teach the children in our area, Daw Daw. So I will have to teach Ri Ri.

Calm down. What are the letters, Maung Win?

Win, English Aunt.

Calm down. Maung Win, what are you going to do if you teach a girl English?

Win. Yes, right, Daw Daw, it's a time when you can learn English and be a good listener, so it's good if you can learn to eat and drink, Daw Daw. Isn't that right?

Yi. Ko Ko Win will teach me English? Win, aye, yes. Yi, don't you want to go? Yi. (Gladly shaking Maung Win's hand) I want to go, Ko Ko Win. Even when I was little, my father said that I would go to an English school when I grew up, but he never left.

Calm down. Tell your father when he comes, he will learn from you.

When U Thant Sin returned, Maung Win Maung told him about it, and he gave him his enthusiastic support, so he finally agreed.

From that night on, Maung Win Maung practiced and memorized his lessons and taught Ye Ri English, Burmese, and arithmetic whenever he had free time. Ye Ri also wanted to learn, and during the day he would memorize the lessons he had to learn. Maung Win Maung bought Ye Ri the books and school supplies he needed from his own pocket money and taught her diligently. After about three years, she was able to write fairly well. At that time, Ye Ri was already 15 years old, but her parents were satisfied that the teacher and student treated each other with kindness and affection, like brothers and sisters, so they did not object to anything.

Chapter (1)

A large house in the Shwebo district, also known as Yadanartheingha, Konbaungmyo, Mosopho, Yangyi Aung, and Shwebo, was lit up with electric lights as soon as the sun set. At 8 o'clock, young students, dressed neatly in new clothes, arrived one by one. The children who had already arrived were reading newspapers, magazines, and journals at the tables set up downstairs, while the readers were sitting on the long benches in front of the house, gossiping about the students and their teachers. At 8:30, the bell rang from the top of the house, and the students stopped their endless gossip and went upstairs.

On the upper floor of the house, chairs were arranged in rows for a meeting, and at the top table sat two young students and a black man. The black man was a famous preacher from India, and at the invitation of the students, he was to speak that night on the subject of awakening and prosperity.

As soon as the congregation gathered, the preacher spoke so eloquently about the awakening of black students in India that the students applauded loudly and loudly.

Finally, the preacher suggested an obligation that the high school students in Shwebo should follow, and everyone liked the suggestion and agreed.

The suggestion is that in Shwebo, the number of children who can afford to study in English schools is much smaller than the number of those who cannot. In order to help such unfortunate people, each student from grade 7 and above should tutor an uneducated person (boy or girl) near their home during their free time at night.

This decision was a decision that would double the number of educated people, but the students were so pleased that they praised the advisor, the preacher, as a teacher who had shown them the right path.

When the meeting was over and they returned home, each student thought about which boy and which girl in their neighborhood they should educate. Their parents agreed, and so on.
