According to legend, there was an old man who had seven sons. Of the seven brothers, one was very nikamma and the other was very capable and hardworking. That is why the old woman always used to feed the false son to the other 6 brothers. One day the wife of the younger son said that your mother discriminates against you a lot, but she did not believe it. One day, pretending to have a headache to know the truth, he lay down in the kitchen with a sheet. When the mother had finished feeding the 6 brothers as usual, she began to feed the seventh son. Seeing this act of his mother, he did not eat food and left the house and went abroad. When he was ready to leave, he thought of his wife who was making cow dung cakes in the animal enclosure. He told about his departure and said, 'We will go abroad and stay here for some time. At the same time, the wife also responded in the same tone and said, 'Go drink our thoughts with joy, Rama, we trust God to help you. Now the sign said to me that I have nothing to give you, only this ring, keep it. At the same time, he also asked his wife for a sign, and she said, 'I have nothing. ' These are hands stained with cow dung, take their impressions with you. Now he walked with the imprint of cow dung made by the hands of his wife on the back. arrived in the foreign country.

Gradually, Seth entrusted him with his bookkeeping and, pleased with his honesty, after a time, Seth made him a share of the profits.
On the other hand, his wife was in great distress, her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law had made her life miserable. On the one hand, if all the work of the house was done with it, then it would be good if weed bread was also available for eating from above. One day she went to pick up girls from the nearby forest and saw some women narrating a story there. When he asked the women who this Vrat Katha belonged to, they told him that Santoshi was telling the Vrat Katha of Mata. He also asked her to tell him the method of this fast. Now he also saw the temple on the way. She fell at his feet and said, 'O my father! What can I do for you, mother? Her mother heard her scream. He sold the wood and brought jaggery for prasad and observed fast on Fridays and also listened to the Vrat Katha. Within a few days, she received a letter from her husband and started receiving money. Now she started fasting every Friday. Then he begged his mother, 'O mother, unite me with my master.' Then the mother herself disguised herself as an old woman and went to her husband and asked him whether he had any family.

Then the old woman said that if you light a lamp in the name of Mother Santoshi and sit in the shop tomorrow morning, by the evening all your calculations will be done and the goods will also be sold. He did the same With the blessings of his mother, he bought clothes and ornaments in the evening and went to his village. His wife was talking to her mother in the temple of her mother as usual, 'O mother, when my lord will come, he said, 'Daughter, make three bales of the wood that you have, leave one on the bank of the river, one here in the temple, and go to your house and say,' Take two loaves of bread.' Her mother did the same. When her husband was returning from there, he had seen dry wood while crossing the river, tired from the journey and hungry. He lit the fire and arranged food and left for home. When he reached home, he heard that his wife had laid a bale of logs in the courtyard and said, 'Take a bale of logs, mother-in-law, and give me bread of straw.' When the husband heard the voice, he came out and saw his wife's condition.
When she asked her mother why this happened, she said that Kamdham does not do anything, she keeps wandering in the village. But he did not forget the injustice done to him He asked for the keys of another house and started living separately. Now, by the grace of Maa Santoshi, his days are over. Then came the Friday in which the Mother was to be celebrated. Fully prepared He called his sister-in-law's children, but the sister-in-law sent her children after teaching them completely to ask for sour food at the time of meal. Now the children insisted on sour things after the meal, so he refused and gave the mother 's prasad and money to the children. With that money, the children bought sour things and ate them. In this way, the observance of the fast could not be completed and Mother Santoshi became angry. The king's soldiers took away her husband. The brothers-in-law again started taunting, looted people and collected money, now it will be known if you rot in jail.
The daughter-in-law could not bear all this and reached her mother's feet and began to speak. What are you punishing me and my husband for? The mother started saying, 'Daughter, you have not completed the celebration, so you have to endure all this. Do it twice and make no mistake this time.
