He had two wives: the first wife was Nang Sinlaludi and the second wife was Nang Buppha. However, they often fought and beat each other. Mr. Mueang had a daughter from the first wife, Nang Yisun, who loved trading. The second wife had a son named Mr. Sangkang who was naughty. One day, Mr. Mueang traveled to trade elephants in another province. The daughter sailed a junk to China. The son was having fun with friends. The three of them did not return home. Only the first wife was weaving under the house and the second wife was pounding rice. Not long after, the two had an argument. The first wife threw the weaving shuttle over the second wife's head, causing the wound to open and bleed profusely. The second wife was merciless and used a pestle to pound rice and stabbed the first wife's chest until it was pierced. Finally, both of them died, becoming mountains. The mistress became a broken-headed mountain, while the first wife became a broken-headed mountain from then on. 📍 Tambon Khuhasawan, Mueang Phatthalung District, Phatthalung Province #Flying with trip #Phu Khao Ok Thalu
