Once upon a time, the housewife of a man was very kind, and always volunteered to help those in need. However, her husband always doubted his wife was doing bad things.
Two brothers, who lost their parents, came to this family from a very remote place. Seeing the brothers were homeless, the wife allowed them to live in the home.
The winter came and cold wind roared. One day, it snowed heavily. On such a cold day, the brothers were so frozen as to tremble because of their rugs. Seeing the poor brothers, the wife showed her pity, and asked them to come into the room to change their clothes so that she would mend the clothes to help them keep warm.
Her husband happened to return home, and saw everything. He couldn’t refrain from his doubt, became very unhappy, banged the door and left.
After he returned home, the wife told him, “I just want to help them, but have no other intent. You don’t have to doubt this or that. You will eventually understand the truth of the thing, just like stones will naturally appear after water falls.”
This story comes from AncientPoems: YangeXing. The proverb means the stones will naturally show up when water falls down, and compare that the truth of something will emerge when the time comes.
