- On jılnı şkolda közlerimden boşap, qoyçu bolur üçünmü küreşgenme?! Bezimege qoy... – dep, orta boylu, qara şinli, burmaçaç jaş qabaq eşikleni etdi."Did I toil ten years at school and ruin my eyes just to end up a shepherd?! Never mind being sick of it..." said the medium-built, dark-complexioned, curly-haired young man, and pushed the yard gate shut.
