A man named Ramdas is unhappy with his life due to poverty and a quarrelsome wife. He meets a Sadhu who tells him a story about a farmer and his wife who have a loving relationship and are prosperous. The king and queen of their land test the farmer and his wife by offering them wealth and land if they leave each other, but the farmer refuses, and the wife pretends to agree to kill her husband for wealth. However, the wife's plan is foiled when the king's soldiers arrive, and she is caught.
The farmer's wife reveals that the reason for her actions was the farmer's bad habits, specifically that he used to press the upper part of her nose with his finger and touch the back part of her ear with his tongue. The Sadhu then reveals to Ramdas that these actions are the key to gaining wealth, as the upper part of the woman's nose is considered auspicious and the back part of her ear is where Goddess Lakshmi resides. By doing these actions, one can please Goddess Lakshmi and gain wealth. The Sadhu advises Ramdas to tell his wife about this and to do these actions with her to gain wealth and a harmonious relationship.
