Story: "THE LEGEND OF WATERMELON" Once upon a time, there was a young man named Mai An Tiem. He was from a country in the southern sea, sold as a slave. One day, he was taken by a group of traders to be sold to King Hung. Mai An Tiem quickly learned to speak Vietnamese. He remembered many things, knew many common knowledge, and had many skills. The more days passed, the more the king loved him, never leaving his side. At the age of thirty-five, he became a close official, with his own house near the royal palace. Mai's wife was the king's adopted daughter, who had given birth to a son who was five years old. Mai had all the servants he needed, and there was no shortage of luxury items in his house. Although his power was not great, he was feared and respected by everyone. Many people still came to seek his favor. But seeing Mai's high status, there were also those who harbored jealousy and hatred.
