Nasreddin  story4

Nasreddin's wife was very ill, and at last she died. After a few months, Nasreddin married again. His new wife was a widow.
    Exactly seven days after he married her, she had a boy.
    Nasreddin at once hurried away to the market and bought some pager, some pencils, some pens and some children's books. Then he hurried back home again with these things and put them beside the baby. His new wife was surprised. 'What are you doing?' she said. 'The baby won't be able to use those things for a long time. Why are you in such a hurry?'
    Nasreddin answered, 'You are quite wrong, my dear. Our baby is not an ordinary baby. It came in seven days instead of nine months, so it will certainly be ready to learn to read and write in a few weeks from now.
