    The astrologer comes home very late because he has had a very unusual experience with one of his customers. Although he has been delayed, he has won a bet and come home with extra coins, an unexpected sum of money. When his wife meets him at the door, it is almost midnight. She is quite angry with him, demanding to know why he has been delayed. When he shows her the money, however, her attitude changes abruptly, and she becomes quite happy. She plans to use the money to buy their child sweet treats the next day.
