English Original
Once a farmer led a cow to slaughter, but the cow refused to go. The farmer tried to drag her by force, but the cow planted her feet firmly in the ground and would not be moved.
What did the farmer do? He brought the cow's calf and led it ahead. The mother cow then followed her calf, not by force, but of her own free will.

从前,一位农夫要牵一头母牛去屠宰,但母牛不肯走。农夫试图用力拖拽它,但母牛将双脚牢牢地钉在地上,纹丝不动。
农夫是怎么做的呢?他带来了母牛的小牛犊,牵着小牛走在前面。母牛便心甘情愿地跟在小牛后面,不再需要任何强迫。
