Here comes another interesting French story. The woodcutter was indeed a responsible father who actually knew his role as a father. I said he is a responsible father because he gave birth to seven children and was able to train them up to the stage where he now knew that they were no longer kids and that they could care for themselves, he had to now tell them to go in search for there daily bread. The woodcutter did not just sit at home and wait for his children to go and bring food to his table, he also went to beg for alms. This also tells that he wasn't a lazy father.
The woodcutter actually trained his seven children very well, because they were also ready and willing to go in search of their daily bread. The woodcutter gave from the eldest son to the sixth son a pistole and gave the youngest son a patched garment. The youngest son collected it without complaining or being jealous of his older brothers. And he was lucky enough to get twelve double gold Louis from the snake he killed. I guess he was blessed with the twelve double gold Louis because he wasn't jealous of his older brothers. He was contented with what his father gave to him.
