While other animals would wake up in the early hours of the morning to go to their farms, tortoise will stretch himself on the bed and turn to the right and the left and sleep again.
At noon tortoise will wake up very tired and hungry. Since he knows that the other animals would be returning from their farms while others would be going to the market. Tortoise will pretend to be working in a nearby farm to his house which belongs to Dog🐶🐕🐕 Most animal were confused about who really owned the farm because the Dog seldom came to the farm.
When tortoise will be working in the farm, he'll see animals going to market while others are returning from the farms too.
Pig his friend was fond of going to farm from noon time. This, tortoise knew very well, thus, he took the opportunity to ask the pig his friend to help buy him some food items from the market.
The pig asked him for money to buy those stuffs and he said that it was in the house, and that he was not ready to get into the house would make him discontinue with the work in the farm.
