Once upon a time there lived Godelo. He had a wife who constantly nagged him because his father was interfering with their life, and Gadelo could not calm his wife down.

Here the father, listening to all the cries day after day, calls his son and says to him: “Son, I see that my presence is completely interfering with your family well-being, let me go to the mountains to live...” Godelo, having listened to his father, at first began to refuse, but there was nothing to do...

The father was just getting ready when he called his son over and said to him: “I only have one problem, I won’t make it to the mountains on my own, let’s carry me in a basket on your shoulders, and then I’ll be there somehow.” “Okay,” Godelo answered, agreeing.

He put his father in a basket and carried him to the mountains. He brought his father, dropped him off, and was already afraid to leave, when his father said after him: “Wait, son, don’t forget to grab your basket, you never know what else your son will need.”

Then Godelo felt ashamed, he realized his mistake, repented, immediately put his father back in the basket and brought him back home.

...And he kicked his evil wife out of the house.
