The Old Woman and The Sparrow
Once
upon a time, there lived a kind hearted man and his wife. One morning, his wife
found a poor little sparrow. She took it gently and fed it. To show its
gratitude, the sparrow stayed with them and sang every morning. But there was
an ill-tempered old woman who didn’t like the sparrow. She cut the sparrow’s
tongue. That’s why the bird flew away to its previous nest.
Knowing
that their sparrow flew away, the kind man and his wife looked for the sparrow.
They walked a long way, crossed the bridges, climbed the mountains and passed
the woods.
At
last, they could find the sparrow’s nest. The sparrow welcomed them and
provided a feast for them. Before they went home, the sparrow
brought two baskets; one was large and looked heavy, and the other one was
small and light. The sparrow asked them to choose only one. They chose the
small and that was the best choice. There were many rolls of silk and piles of
gold in it.
Being jealous, the ill-tempered old woman did the same thing as the kind man and
his wife did. She chose the big basket which actually contained wasps and
venomous crawlers, such as scorpions, centipedes, and other horrible creatures.
Finally, aaathey stung and bit her to death.
