Joke: I’m in charge here! –

One day a beggar knocked at the door of a house, and when a woman opened the door, asked her for alms.

“I’ve nothing to give you,” said the woman.

“Please go!

The woman, who was newly married, lived with her mother-in-law.

When her mother-in-law heard her refusing alms to the beggar she was furious.

“Who are you to refuse alms to this man!

” she demanded.

“I’m the mistress of the house!

!

Thus chastened, the daughter-in-law fled to her room.

“Thank you, kind lady,” said the beggar, ingratiatingly.

“All I asked for was a coin to buy food.

I did not know she was not the mistress of the house.”

“She’s not!

” snapped the woman.

“She had no right to refuse you alms.

I’m in charge here, and let me tell you something:

you’re not getting a paisa from me!

!

And with that, she slammed the door in the beggar’s face.
