Only One Leg

Today, I tell a story to my friends.I heard it at my childhood and I really like it. A man killed a crane and gave it to his servant.The servant roasted it and ate one of it's leg.Then he put it on a plate on the dinner table.The master came and sat down at the dinner table. He asked"where is the other leg?"The servant replied,"a crane has only one leg sir." Next morning the master went to river bank with his servant.A crane was standing there in the water on one leg.The master clapped and the bird lowered it's other leg and flew away. The master said "look, crane has two legs." Then the servant replied,"yes sir, but you didn't clap at the dinner table, and so the crane on the table didn't lower it's other leg." Have you enjoy it?

haha, that servant is really smart. If he keeps on stealing food from his master, his master will deduct his salary.

That was a clever servant. Or a sneaky one.

@paigea yes,I think so.But I can not understand that he is a intelligent man or he is a cunning man.Man who like this servant can spend his life easily in this society.
