Young Brahmin’s Quest For A Bride

The young brahmin asked.  Is it true, your daughter has all the good qualities & pleasing looks?
Old brahmin answered, Yes, more than that . She is Sundaravati & Padmavati.
But, can she cook & keep the house clean? asked the young one.
Oh yes,  she is Dharma Vati! Answered the old man.
Can she sew?  asked the young man.
Oh yes, she can not only sew, but she is  KalaVati! answered old man.
What about her education? Asked the young man.
She is  Vidya Vati! Answered the old man.
And the Vedas? asked the young man.
Oh yes,  yes,  she is  Veda Vati! answered the old man.
The young man is very happy to find a perfect bride & gets married to her.

Two days later, he comes back with his newly married bride in tow. The old Brahmin is surprised.
He asks, “What happened, my son? Why do you look so upset?”
The young man says,  Well sir,  you told me  your daughter was Sundaravati,  Padmavati,  Dharmavati,  Kalavati,  Vidyavati  and  Vedavati ?
Yes, my son – I certainly did” replied the old man.
But Sir – you forgot to tell me that, she is also ‘Garbhavati’ (pregnant)
