Once upon a time, there lived an elderly lawyer who was known for his sharp wit and unwavering honesty. He had a loving wife and a bustling household of 12 lively children. Though his days were filled with chaos and laughter, he found himself in a predicament\u2014his rental agreement was ending, and he needed to find a new home for his big family.<\/p>\n
But there was a problem.<\/p>\n
Whenever he mentioned having 12 children, landlords would politely decline, fearing the wear and tear such a large brood might bring to their property. The lawyer, true to his profession, refused to lie about his situation. After all, lawyers don\u2019t lie\u2014they find creative solutions.<\/p>\n
One day, inspiration struck.<\/p>\n
The lawyer asked his wife to take 11 of their children on an outing to the cemetery for a peaceful stroll. Meanwhile, he took the youngest child with him to meet a real estate agent.<\/p>\n
At one of the viewings, the lawyer was impressed by a charming home with a beautiful garden. The agent, eager to finalize the deal, asked, \u201cHow many children do you have, sir?\u201d<\/p>\n
The lawyer replied truthfully, \u201cI have 12 children.\u201d<\/p>\n
The agent, raising an eyebrow, followed up, \u201cAnd where are the others?\u201d<\/p>\n
With a solemn expression and a dramatic pause, the lawyer answered, \u201cThey are in the cemetery\u2026with their mother.\u201d<\/p>\n
The agent, moved by what he assumed was a tragic story, didn\u2019t press further and quickly handed over the keys.<\/p>\n
The family soon moved into their new home, where laughter and joy filled the rooms once again.<\/p>\n
