The Woodcutter’s Daughter Story
A poor woodcutter had four daughters. One day, he went to the forest to get some wood and asked his eldest daughter to bring his lunch to him. He told her that he would strew bread crumbs on the way so that she might follow them and find him. However, when she set out for the forest, there were no bread crumbs anywhere! The birds had eaten them and the girl got lost in the forest.
While she was wandering about, she came upon a hut in which an old man lived with his pets. He took pity on her and gave her shelter. He asked her to cook a meal for him. But the girl was very rude and ate up all the food that she had cooked herself. At night, the old man asked her to make beds for everyone, but she only made her own bed and went off to sleep. The old man became furious and locked her in a dark room. Soon, the other two daughters of the woodcutter went to the forest to look for their sister. They also came upon the same hut and met the old man. When he asked them to cook food and make the beds, they disobeyed his orders.
In anger, he locked them up as well. Finally, the youngest daughter began to worry and went to the forest to look for her elder sisters. When she came to the old man’s hut and was told to cook food and make the beds, she obediently did as she was told. The old man gave her a comfortable place to spend the night. The next morning, she woke up to find her father and sisters waiting for her. The old man was a magician who had become pleased with her and got her united with her family.
