A younger son tells his father that his brother’s children only know how to eat, and a big Mari household splits in two.
Characters
- The younger son — The one who stays in the old household: Says his brother’s children eat a lot of grain and cannot work.
- The elder son — The son who means to set up on his own: Drunk, he demands his share so he can work for himself and be his own master.
- The father — Master of the household: He agrees with his younger son and, unable to hold his sons together, divides the household.
