Their daughter was diligent and kind-hearted from a young age, and when she grew up, she married a simple young man from the village. After their marriage, the young couple lived a very poor life. The husband worked in the fields, and the wife managed the household chores. They were hardworking and never complained about the hardships of life. One day, while working in the field, the husband accidentally injured his leg. When his wife learned of this, she immediately put down her work and rushed to the field to take care of her husband. Every day, she carefully tended to his injuries and insisted on working in the field to support their family. Although life was exceptionally difficult, she always worked diligently and never bowed to fate. Eventually, her husband's injury healed, and their situation gradually improved.
