Summary: Kevin and Robin love to hear Grandpa’s folklore from China. Grandpa tells them a story called The Hidden Treasure, about a poor, old man abandoned by his three sons and their wives. The old man falls ill. A neighbour hears him muttering in his delirium something about a treasure and informs his sons. Soon, the sons and their wives are fighting over possession of the dying old man - and his “hidden treasure.”
