Reunion (Part VI)

-

 




On the way, Hans met a horseman. Hans told him, “I need to find out my parents. Could you please give me your horse instead of this lump of gold?”

The horseman nodded his head.

However, Hans was thrown off while he was pushing the horse to run faster.

Thereafter, Hans came across a cowboy with his cow. Now Hans asked him, “Could you please give me your cow instead of this horse?”

The cowboy said, “Why not, boy? Why not?”

After a few minutes, Hans stood near moorland to milk the cow. He was really very hungry. Right then, a butcher was passing by.

He said to Hans, “How can you milk the cow? It is too old to be milked.” Hans traded his cow for the butcher’s pig.

Thereafter, Hans started again. On the way, he met a mason. Hans asked the mason, “Could you please exchange my pig with your grindstones?”

The mason agreed to his proposal.

The stones were too heavy to be carried.

After all such conversations and after walking a long way, Hans felt tired and thirsty. So, he went to a nearby well to drink some water.

At a distance within view, he saw a man and a woman standing.

After the King had gone away, the miller’s daughter felt so shocked and puzzled that she kept weeping in a corner of the room. Four hours passed. Then, all of a sudden, the door miraculously got opened. Right then, a dwarf stepped in. The dwarf asked her, “What’s wrong? Why do you weep, buddy?” Then the miller’s daughter answered with sobs, “My father has promised the King that I would spin all the straw into gold. Therefore, the King has given me all these to spin into gold.” The dwarf replied, “Well, I can do this task for you. But what will you give me instead?” The girl could hardly believe her ears. Then the dwarf said once again, “Yes, you heard me right. But what will you give me for my work?” “I will give you my necklace instead,” she answered. Thus, the dwarf sat down to spin gold out of the straw. After his work had been over, he sneaked away. The next morning, the King opened the door with a bit of anxiety. Immediately, he found the straw turned into gold.

My little friends, Today, I would like to share one of my sources of delight of my childhood days with you all. I hope that you won’t be disappointed with me while reading this letter. So, let me have a talk with you for a few moments, please! When I was a little kid, I was literally crazy about ice creams. Well, I must confess that such a divine taste never left me alone. Yes, I like them even now. Well, who doesn’t like ice creams? Out of all the flavors, I was fond of butterscotch the most. Well, it is funny to note that I love that same flavor the most still today. I can’t stay away from them. So, what’s your favorite flavor? Is it strawberry? Is it salted caramel? Is it chocolate? Or is it something else? Would you mind sharing that with me? It feels like there can be no end to our exchange of words. I believe that my words do try to touch all your little hearts. Yes, you may be little, but remember, you are no less than an elder in the case of your talent, in the case of yo
