"Going fishing a fish? What tools will you use? We did not have a fishing rod "replied his wife.
"Dont worry dear, you do not need to know, which is important later that this night we ate grilled fish. Bring me Wedang (herbal drinks) that had been given by father in law. "
"Take yourself it is in the kitchen!" replied his wife.
That night, Si Kabayan went to the street where the neighbors passing toward the river. Then he stopped under a large Banyan tree. And opened his shirt, he put the Wedang all over his body. Then he rolled on cotton, which he had brought from home. Then he hid in the grass beside the road.

Stunned to hear the sound of Si Kabayan fart very loudly. Because in his country, if the Dutch want to fart, usually not issued at once. But it released slowly, little by little. The next thing you know, there is fragrant smell. The smell of the trash.
After walking ten meters ahead, Si Kabayan's butt gives sound again, louder. Maybe if all that often, Mr. Dutch dislike it. Fart nice if once, but if that often the fragrant smell very bad there. Si Kabayan's butt voiced reached the fourth time, Mr. Dutch does not stand it any longer, he kicked Si Kabayan's butt, and holding his nose, he roars "God damn!!!"
From thenceforth, Si Kabayan learn one's lesson, he hasn't allowed arbitrary fart. Especially in front of the Dutch people, if he wants to fart, he will resist mightily. - The End -
