Magic Vase. Proverbs

There was a poor man. And he had a poor dwelling - a small dirty little house, in which mice nestled the nest and the spiders wove their webs. People tried not to enter his house - why should one go into the devastation of the poor?

And once they gave the poor man an unheard-of vase. At first he wanted to sell this vase - why does he need such beauty? - but then he admired, and the hand did not rise to the market to carry it. Then the poor person picked up the wild flowers, put them in a vase - it became even more beautiful.

“It’s not good,” thought the poor man, “that such beauty stands next to the cobweb.”

He cleaned the house of cobwebs, cockroaches and mice brought out, laundered the floors, wiped the dust from the shelves, whitened the oven again. And it turned out that his little house is not poor at all, but rather warm and cozy.

So you think about it - what was it? Either a vase was given to a magical person, or even poverty was not the cause of the devastation in his house.
