garden failed to

produce crops.

He abandoned his field

and solved his problems

by using paintingmaterials in his godown

to sell pictures.

2.

What did he do to solve his problem?What does it say of him?

Excellent answer. Since Matusi cannot

make a living out of his rice field andgarden, he decided to go to another

venture or business. He went to theirgodown or storehouse and he found

few painting materials used by hisgrandfather. He painted pictures then

he sold some of it. But he has so littlepainting skill so eventhough he had

good ideas to paint he only painted

simple pictures and he only sold three.

This actions showed that Matsui has apositive attitude, he never give up

although he has big problems. He isstill very patient and willing to take

risks.

3. Who do you think, was the stranger

who visited Matsui? What did he tell

Matsui?

Very good answer. One day Matsuiwas very busy painting pictures, when

out of nowhere just like magic, astranger appeared in front of him. The

stranger is one of the Seven Gods ofHappiness.

Matsui told the stranger that it seems

that the Gods forgot to bless his spot.But he is trying his best to see what

can be done and he said that he willnever give up hope.

The statement of the stranger reveals

He decided to see what can be done in theirgodown. He found painting materials and he

painted simple pictures . Then he sold it.His action reveals that he is very optimistic,

patient and creative man.

These shows that Matsui is a patient,industrious and optimistic.

The stranger who visited Matsui is one of the

Seven Gods of Happiness because he has

suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

The stranger told Matsui the following

statements, the Seven Gods of Happinessalways leave their mark, but some men are

not quick to see it. Because of your patienceyou shall see the Touch of Happiness they

gave here, for they left no spot forgotten.

that the Gods had blessed all the

people but some are not aware of it.But because Matsui is a patient man he

will see the Touch of Happiness leftby the Gods.

Happiness leave Matsuis rice field?

Yes, thats right. Aftre the strangerleft, Matsui went to his ruined rice

field and there he saw a beautifulblossom of the iris flower. He planted

a lot of iris flower and after the nextseason it grew so well that it filled the

whole rice field. The beautiful sight of

the iris flowers were admired by thepeople in the town and some pilgrimsor travellers were fascinatedbyMatsuis flowers. These iris flowers

were the mark or the blessing that isbestowed to Matsui by the Seven Gods

of Happiness.

5. Why did the pilgrims buy Matsuispaintings?

Very well said. The pilgrims were soattracted to the iris flowers. They are

so happy to buy the paintings made byMatsui because they believed that

Happiness left their mark or bestowedtheir divine blessings.

Cause and Ef fect Relati onship

Before discussing the story, we will firstnote the cause and effect relationships in the

story.What is a cause and effect relationship?

Who wants to read?

Matsuis ruined rice field is the lovely irisflower.

The pilgrims or the travellers were delightedto see a field full of iris flowers. They

bought Matsuis paintings so that they cantake it home. They also said that it is the
