Long ago a kind farmer with the name of Fred lived in a small old house happily together with his gentle wife, Doris, who couldn't see anything at the age of five.

One cold winter night, the Luck Fairy (仙女) visited them while they were eating some bread in the dim(昏暗的)light. “Fred, you're so kind. I'd like to give you a wish. It's my pleasure to satisfy you,” said the Luck Fairy. “A wish?” Fred and Doris asked, standing hand in hand and smiling at each other. Then Fred answered, “Thanks, Luck Fairy. We're living a happy life.” “We are no longer young, but we still work in the field from morning to night every day. We enjoy ourselves,” said Doris. “You work very hard but you make so little money. Would you like some gold coins to buy a comfortable house?” asked the Luck Fairy. “Oh no, my dear Luck Fairy. We love our small old house. We have lived here for a long time,” answered Fred, without a moment's hesitation (犹豫). “We are happy to work and live together all the time. That's enough,” Doris agreed. The couple were quite different from other people the Luck Fairy had ever met. She appreciated(欣赏) them very much. She disappeared, saying, “I wish you a happy life forever.” Many years later, the couple lived happily as usual It seemed to others that they were the happiest in the world. Satisfaction is a kind of feeling that needs to be experienced from inside. It‘s very important to be satisfied with what you've got. If you enjoy the pleasure of the simple life, good luck will follow you.
