Why did the daimio reward the farmer but punish his neighbour for the same act?

Posted on

The daimio rewarded the farmer as he saw the wonder of the dry cherry trees bursting into bloom which was done by the good old farmer. But the wicked old neighbour threw a handful of ashes over the tree, instead of kneeling before the daimio. The change was not visible, moreover the ash caused trouble to the daimio and his wife, upon which he got angry and punished him.
