黑小米的故事Story of the black millet(英文版)

2 Long long time ago, a mother took her baby to work in the field. She needed to weed the field and bring some sweet potatoes and taros back home to eat.
4 She left the baby in the cradle in the workhouse nearby and went to work in the field. It did not take long for the baby to start crying. But the mother continued to work hard in the field.
6 She said to her baby, "Be patient. I will feed you later. Mommy has just one line to weed." And so she continued working hard in the field.
