पति पर अधिक स्नेह था उसे पश्चिम के गाँव को भेजा जिससे आने जाने में सूर्य का ताप पीछे से पड़े और कष्ट कम हो। जिस पर कम स्नेह था उसे पूर्व दिशा के गॉव भेजा जिससे सूर्य का ताप सामने से पडे। मंत्री ने राजा से यह बात बताई। किन्तु राजा इससे संतुष्ट नहीं हुआ ।
मंत्री ने पुनः आदेश भेजा और दो अन्य गाँवों के नाम बता दोनों पतियों को एक ही समय अलग-अलग गाँव भेजने को कहा। स्त्री ने फिर दोनों को भेज दिया पर इस बार कुछ समय 5 पश्चात् मंत्री ने स्त्री के यहाँ दूत भेजे जिन्होंने उसे यह सूचना दी कि उसके पति बीमार हैं उन्हें जाकर सँभाले । स्त्री तत्काल एक के लिए बोल उठी-" वे तो सदा ऐसे ही रहते हैं, कोई नई बात नहीं है। पहले मैं दूसरे को देखूँ उन्हें बड़ा कष्ट हो रहा होगा ।" यह कहकर वह उस पति की ओर रवाना हो गई जिस पर उसका विशेष स्नेह था। मंत्री ने राजा को सारी बात बताकर संतुष्ट किया ।

16. Husbands-Two brothers lived in a village. They had the same wife. She was very clever and never revealed which of the brothers she loved most. The villagers praised her for this quality. In time this news reached the king also. He was also impressed, but his minister said-"Sire, It is impossible. It is for sure that the woman loves one of her husbands more than the other." The king asked-"How to find about this?" The minister said – “I will soon think of some way.”
One day the minister send an order to the woman that she should send one of her husbands to a certain village in the east and the other to another village towards west. Getting this order the woman sent the husband she loved more to the village in the west so that while going as well as coming, the sun is on his back and the heat is less oppressive. The one she loved less, she sent to the eastern village so that he walks facing the sun. The minister informed the king of this but the king was not satisfied.

Once again the minister sent an order to her to send her husbands to two different destinations at the same time. The woman complied the order but this time the minister sent two different messengers to her after a lapse of few hours. They both carried the same message but from different villages-"Your husband is sick and needs your 5 care." The woman at once said about one of her husbands - “ This is 5 nothing new, he gets sick now and then. First I should go to see the other one. He must be in pain." And she left to see the husband she loved more. The minister satisfied the king by giving all these details.
