Union is strength

 

   There was a wife and husband who loved each other. One day, she said to her husband, 'I am going to the bazaar.' He replied, 'Come back early because we will go outside for a party with our parents.' Suddenly, she said to her husband, 'Buy a house for me; I want to live separately from your parents.' He became shocked and asked, 'Why? Do you have any problems?' She replied, 'No, it's my habit. I want to live alone; it will be better for me.' He became confused, replied yes, and added, also, buy grapes for me, but choose the ones with a lower price.' She went to the bazaar and returned with grapes. She gave them to her husband, and he asked, 'How much did they cost?' 

   She replied, 'There were many grapes on the table, priced at 400, but I bought them for 100 because some were rotten or not good, as you said.' He responded, 'Now you understand something.' She said nothing. I now understand you; you bought these grapes at a lower price because there weren't many. If we live alone, we won't have a good price. If we live with the family, we also have a price. That's why Union is Strength.'
