Once upon a time, there was a house on the edge of a grove of trees. An old woman lived alone in this house. One day, as the old woman was spinning by the door, she saw a mouse chasing a crow. The old woman got up and drove the crow away with a whip. He brought the mouse into the house and poured a handful of rice in front of him.
The mouse ate the old woman's bread and salt and stayed in her house. Now the old woman was free from loneliness. After a while, the old woman was sitting in the doorway, cleaning the rice, and the mouse was playing around her. The old woman sometimes sprinkled him with a few grains of rice. At that moment, a cat passed by the old woman's house and saw a mouse playing. When the old woman sensed the cat's arrival, she thought to herself, "If I miss the mouse, the cat will take it." He sighed and said to himself, "I wish a mouse could turn into a cat and I could sit still." In the blink of an eye, his dream came true. The mouse turned into a big, huge cat. The cat who saw him ran away, squeezing his tail.
In the evening the old woman slept peacefully, and the cat roamed the roof. In the middle of the night, when the cat heard a dog barking, it jumped off the roof in fear. He ran into the house and hid behind a box. The dog howled and the cat trembled. The old woman felt sorry for the cat and said to herself, "I wish my kitten had become a big dog, but no dog could hurt it." The old woman's dream came true again. Her cat has become a big, strong dog. When he heard the other dogs barking, he responded to them. He guarded the house.
Some time later, a hungry tiger appeared around the old woman's house. He was wandering around looking for prey. The dog stepped forward and howled at him. The tiger howled at the dog. Then the old woman cried out, “I wish my dog had become a big tiger. Then other animals would not be able to attack him. ”
This time, too, it came true in the old woman's language. His dog turned into a big, majestic tiger. Now he was walking in the woods with dignity. Other creatures who saw him would hide among the bushes out of fear or climb to the top of the tree. Every time he saw an animal smaller than himself, he moaned in horror. The old woman was silent even when she saw what he was doing. Eventually one day the tiger began to frighten the little mouse. Disappointed by his work, the old woman said to the tiger, “Why are you so proud? Do you remember when you were a little mouse? ” The tiger was furious. He forgot the old woman's love for him.
“No one knows I was once a mouse,” he said.
"You're an ungrateful animal." I wish you were a mouse again, a crow chasing you.
Before the old woman could finish speaking, the tiger turned into a little mouse. Trembling with fear, he circled around the old woman. Eventually he fled to the forest side. The old woman never saw him again. Contribution from the story: When wealth runs out, it is bad, it counts.
Crow
Once there was, and once there was not, it seems that there was a very greedy Kargavoy. One day, Gargavoy was not successful in his hunting and became hungry. He wandered a lot in search of game.
He kept walking and walking. He kept flying and flying. At last he went to the edge of the sea.
Only a lamb was grazing by the sea. The crow flew and landed on the lamb's back.
- Kish! said the lamb.
- Snow! said Gargavoy. "Lamb, I will eat you." The lamb was frightened. He mumbled in a thin voice:
- I'm still young. Have mercy. Eat me! The crow crowed louder and said:
- Go-or-rr, go-oorrr. A crow loves young lambs. I will eat you!
The lamb did not know what to do. He suddenly smiled and said:
- Okay, Kargavoy, I agree.
- That's fine!
The crow opened its mouth to eat the lamb.
- Hold on! said the lamb. - Before eating, wash your stomach and rinse your mouth!
- What for?
- You will be clean.
"Okay," said the Crow. The crow flew and went to the sea.
"Snow, snow!" Sea, sea!
- Yes.
- Give me water!
- What for?
"I'm going to eat the barra lamb with a mouthful!" The sea replied:
- Good. Go, get a potter's jar.
The crow quickly ran to the potter. The potter was making clay.
"Snow, snow!" Potter, Potter! - said Kargavoy, raising his ugly voice.
- Give me a jug, I will take the jug to the sea, the sea will give me water, I will rinse my mouth in the water, and then I will eat the lamb.
The potter replied:
- All right, Kargavoy. But bring earth from the mound, I will make a jar.
The crow crowed and went to the mound.
"Snow-rr, snow-rr!" Kurgan, Kurgan! Give me soil, I will take the soil to the potter, the potter will make a pitcher, I will take the pitcher to the sea, the sea will give me water, I will rinse my mouth with water, and then I will eat the barra lamb.
Kurgan said:
- I will not spare you any amount of soil. Go to the blacksmith and get a hole!
The crow crowed and said: "It's going well." He went straight to the blacksmith.
"Snow-rr, snow-rr!" Uncle Blacksmith! Ho, Uncle Blacksmith! said Gargavoy.
"Give me a hole, I will bring the hole to the mound, the mound will give me soil, I will bring the soil to the potter, the potter will give me a pitcher, I will take the pitcher to the sea, the sea will give water, I will rinse my mouth in the water, then barra I will eat the lamb.
Hearing this, the blacksmith's neck stiffened.
"Bring the fire, I'll light the hole and prepare it," he said.
- Okay!
The crow went looking for fire.
An old woman was cooking chavati.
"Snow, snow!" "Old mother, give me fire," said the crow. - I will bring the fire to the blacksmith, the blacksmith will make a hole, I will go to the mound with the hole, he will give earth, I will bring the earth to the potter, he will make a jug, I will bring the jug to the sea, he will give water, I will rinse my mouth in the water, I will eat only lamb.
The old woman thought to herself: "All right, give it a fire and let it burn to death!"
"Alaqol!"
The crow took a pinch of ash in his hand, put the fire on it and quickly flew away. The old woman did not know what to do, and remained puzzled.
The crow gave the fire to the blacksmith, and the blacksmith made a hoe instead of a hoe so that the crow could not lift it. The crow barely lifted the hoe and went to the earth mound, the mound gave a lot of earth, brought the earth to the potter, the potter made a clumsy pitcher, the pitcher with difficulty took him to the sea and said:
- I brought a jug, give me water!
"Alaqol!"
The crow was very tired. So that the jar would not fall into the sea, he tied it to the tail and put it in the water.
The jug began to fill with water. It was getting heavier and heavier. Greedy Kargavoy dreamed of drinking more water. The jar is full. The raven picked him up, spread his wings to fly, raised his legs, but could not lift him, stumbled and fell into the sea.
Even if Ming tried to write wings, it didn't work - he drowned.
Seeing this, the lamb raised its beak to the sky and laughed.
Rabbit's house
Once upon a time there was a rabbit with a fox. The fox's house was made of ice, and the rabbit's house was made of wood. When spring came and the days warmed up, the fox's house melted. The homeless fox went to the rabbit, asking for a place to spend the night, took possession of his house, and drove him away.
As the rabbit cried on the way, a puppy appeared in front of him:
- Wow, wow, wow! Hey rabbit, why are you crying?
"How can I not cry?" I had a house made of bark. When the fox's ice house melted, he asked me to give him a place to stay, and he took over and drove me away.
"Don't cry, rabbit!" Said the puppy.
"If you're worried, I'll help you."
Together they came to the rabbit's house. The puppy howled:
- Wow, wow, wow! Hey fox, come on out!
The fox threatened them as he lay on the stove.
"I'm going to jump up and jump out of the window and tear you both to pieces!"
Frightened by this threat, the puppy straightened the pair.
As the rabbit cried again on the way, a bear appeared in front of him:
"Yes, rabbit, why are you crying?" He asked.
"How can I not cry?" Said the rabbit, sobbing. I had a house made of bark. When the fox's ice house melted, he came to me asking for a place to spend the night, took over my house, and drove me away.
"Don't cry, rabbit!" Said the bear. "If you're worried, I'll help you."
Together they came to the rabbit's house. The bear shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Hey fox, get out of here!"
The fox threatened them as he lay on the stove.
"I'm going to jump up and jump out of the window and tear you both to pieces!"
The bear, frightened by this threat, straightened the pair.
The rabbit was crying harder than ever on the road. A rooster crowed in front of him.
"Qu-qu-qu-qu-u-uq!" He shouted. "Hey, rabbit, why are you crying?"
"How can I not cry?" Said the rabbit, sobbing. I had a house made of bark. When the fox's ice house melted, he came to me asking for a place to spend the night, took over my house, and drove me away.
"Let's go," said the rooster. "If you're worried, I'll help you."
"No, cock, you can't." The puppy tried to drive - didn’t drive, the bear tried to drive - didn’t drive. you can't drive either.
"I can drive!"
Together they came to the rabbit's house. The rooster kicked the ground with its boots and fluttered its wings:
Qu-qu-qu-qu-u-uq! I brought my scythe to cut the fox to pieces. Hey fox, come on out!
Hearing the rooster crow, the fox became frightened and shouted:
"Put on my shoes now."
The rooster crowed again:
"Qu-qu-qu-qu-u-uq!" I brought my scythe to cut the fox to pieces. Hey fox, come on out!
The fox voted again:
"Now!" Can i wear my clothes
The rooster crowed for the third time:
Qu-qu-qu-qu-u-uq! I brought my scythe to cut the fox to pieces. Hey fox, come on out!
The fox jumped out of the house and hit himself in the woods.
After that, the rabbit again began to live peacefully in his house made of bark.
bulb
In ancient times, he was a rich merchant, and he brought many valuables from different countries. Wherever he went, he brought back something good as a souvenir. There was a nightingale in the merchant's house. He lived in a large and beautiful cage made of silver. The merchant spared him nothing. The servant brought the nightingale water and the best grains in a mother-of-pearl bowl every day - morning, noon and evening. Nightingale lived happily and carefree. He was not good at singing. The merchant heard her merry frolic and thought, "She is happier living in my house than in freedom."
One day the merchant set out on a journey to another country. Upon learning of this, the nightingale asked the merchant:
"Sir, you have always been kind to me." If you fulfill one more request. You are going to my country now. My relatives live in the pomegranate orchard there. If you greet them and let them know that I am healthy without complaining about anything.
"All right, I'll do as you say," said the merchant, and set off.
When he reached the address and sold his cattle, he set out in search of the garden that the nightingale had mentioned. After a long walk, he finally came across a very beautiful garden. Countless flowers bloomed in the garden. A pleasant, fragrant smell wafted around. Everywhere you looked, nightingales perched on every branch of the trees sang in a resounding voice. One of them was moaning so loudly that he could not listen indifferently.
"These must be the birds I am looking for," thought the merchant, and approached the tree and shouted:
"Hey, nightingale!" Your brother lives in my house. He asked me to greet you and all your loved ones and tell him that he is living a healthy, carefree life.
Hearing these words, the nightingale fell to the ground as if it had been shot. The merchant did not know what to do. The bird was lying motionless with its wings spread wide and its mouth open. "Well, I reminded him about his brother in vain," thought the merchant. "It seems that he misses his brother and is crying... Now there is no use in regretting." The merchant picked up the dead bird and threw it on the far grass. As soon as the nightingale fell to the ground, it rose up, flew to the tree, and went into the garden, wandering from branch to branch.
"Wait, where are you going?" Shouted the merchant. "Your brother is waiting for a message from you!"
But the nightingale did not listen to him, and disappeared among the thick leaves as he sang merrily. The merchant returned home upset.
"Sir, did you bring any news from my relatives?" Asked the nightingale.
- I told your relatives everything about you, but I couldn't get any news from them. It seems they didn't want to hear about you. I told your brother about you, but he didn't even listen and pretended to be dead, so I almost believed he was dead. I took it off the ground and threw it on the lawn. Then he suddenly came to life and flew away. Hearing this, the nightingale was deeply saddened. He didn't eat, drink or even make a sound all day. The merchant tried hard to save him. But it didn't help. In the morning, the servant who brought food saw the nightingale dying in the cage. The merchant mourned the loss of his bird of prey. Realizing that there was no use in regretting, he called the servant and ordered him to throw the bird away from the house. The servant took it outside the wall and threw it in the trash. Before falling to the ground, the nightingale came to life and began to circle over the garden, singing its merry song. "Thank you for the great advice, boss!" - he shouted and flew to his homeland.
The proud swan
One day a beautiful white bird flew into the lake in the woods. Its wings were as white as snow and its neck was long. As he spread his wings, tiny particles of water would scatter around and a landscape would appear, just like in a fairy tale.
The bird was the first to see a rabbit. Amazed at her beauty, she watched from a distance, unable to approach him for long. Finally, swallowing, he came to the lake and said to the bird:
"Hello, my name is Rabbit, who are you?"
The bird glanced at him and swam away from the shore in silence.
"I'm not going to hurt you," said the rabbit. But the bird didn't even look at him.
The rabbit was upset by the bird's behavior and said quietly, "You're rude with what you're beautiful with."
At that moment he jumped from branch to branch. He was also fascinated by the beauty of the swan in the lake.
"Hello, beautiful bird, welcome to our forest," he said.
The bird swam silently in the water, as if it could not see the rabbit with the almighty.
"I want to be friends with you, let's meet," he said, not going closer to her. The swan turned its back and swam away. Seeing this, he shrugged.
A hedgehog, piercing its needles with mushrooms and dried fruit, was passing by. Seeing Almakhan and the rabbit, he entertained them with his fruit. He looked enviously at the swan floating in the lake.
- There must be many friends of such a beautiful bird. I'm not even ashamed to talk to him, because I'm just an ugly animal. '
You know, hedgehog, even though you look ugly, your heart is beautiful, so you have a lot of friends. And we are fed up with the beauty of this bird, because it is a pity that there is no warmth in it, - said Almakhan.
"Come on, let's go," said the rabbit, and they all went into the woods, leaving the proud bird alone.
