Once upon a time there lived a moneylender in a town. He had a full family. He had 7 sons, a daughter, and 7 daughters-in-law. A few days before Diwali, her daughter went with her sisters-in-law to get clean soil from the forest for painting the house. While digging out the soil in the forest, a child of ink died from a scabbard. Saddened by this incident, Syahu's mother cursed the moneylender's daughter for never becoming a mother. Due to the effect of that curse, the moneylender's daughter's womb was tied(in control not to be Mother).
The moneylender's daughter was saddened by the curse. She told the sisters-in-law that any one of them should tie his womb. Hearing the words of her sister-in-law, the youngest sister-in-law got ready. Due to the ill effects of that curse, his child lived only for seven days. Whenever she gave birth to a child, she would die within seven days. She got upset and met a pandit and asked for a remedy.
On the advice of the pundit, she started serving the Surahi cow. Pleased with his service, the cow takes him to Syahu's mother one day. On the way, Garuda is about to kill the bird, but the moneylender's younger daughter-in-law kills the snake and gives life to the bird. By then the mother of that Garuda bird comes. She is impressed by him after hearing the whole incident and takes him to Syahu's mother.
When Syahu's mother hears about the philanthropy and service of the moneylender's younger daughter-in-law, she is pleased. Then blesses her to be the mother of seven children. With the effect of blessings, the moneylender's younger daughter-in-law has seven sons, from which she has seven daughters-in-law. His family is big and full. She leads a happy life.
After worshiping Ahoi Mata, Ahoi Ashtami fasting story must be heard from an elderly woman or elders of the house.
