Fairytales - Part 2
Dear readers; let me tell you on how Mr. Jones accumulated his wealth and farm during his youth. As his three daughters are managing for him now. When he was young; Mr. Jones' parents were extremely poor to the extent of just enough to eat daily as he came from a big family. There were five girls and five boys. Mr. Jones is in between his elder sisters and brothers. In short; he is the sixth amongst his ten siblings. There were educated since the government had been providing free education for those who were poor and they were lucky enough to attend school but for his sisters they were not that lucky. As his father believes that women should stay at home and look after children.While, his mother is a homemaker who provides them food, advice, a listening ear and also their confidant when they could not confide in their father. As Mr. Jones's father was a very strict, as well as a firm believer in disciplining his children in values, hardship in earning their work by earning their father's trust in completing a task. His sisters were working as maids in well to do families in their areas to help support the family
Mr. Jones's father is a railway driver who needs to drive the steam train from one station to the other. Although; when he is at home he also made sure that his family have enough to eat and to provide for them. Imagine feeding ten hungry children and his wife. The amount of responsibilities which Mr. Jones's father had to care his family as well as the safety of his passengers in the steam train. Like any other family during his time; when they were at the age of maturity from sixteen years old to eighteen years old they were to search for jobs to fend for their family. Coming to that age; Mr. Jones went to search jobs in far away places in both towns and farms. As; he was still young and able he worked as a waiter, a busboy, a porter as well as a caretaker. He knew that without money there would never be enough to fend his family back home from where he came from. This went on a few years until he reached the age of about twenty three years of age. When he decided that he must have something stable and steady income to improve himself further. He decided to apply the job as a farmboy in almost every posters he sees while he was working and managed to find it in due time.
From then on, Mr. Jones had have always made a promise to himself that when he has his own family he does not want them to suffer like he did when he was young. He started as farmboy in the state of Westmoreland. There were Duke and his Duchess. The property was wide with land and huge amassed with many types of vegetations, well bred horses as well as many number of servants. Imagine if a young lad came out from a county and started working in a luxurious mansion with the amount of wealth from their great grandforefathers before them. The amazement as well as the unseen world which he had never seen before in his life; put it this way a culture shock!!!!
