Magic Stone

A long time ago, in a small village, there was a poor old woman. She didn't have a home and the children.

One day, the poor old woman found the wood and she cut the wood. She was tired. Five minutes later, she found a beautiful stone. She took the stone and she put into her pocket.

Next morning, she went to the market and said, "Please, help me! Buy my stone! I have nothing to eat for three days. I am very hungry." Then, a beautiful lady came and said, "How much is this stone?"

"Up to you," answered the old woman.

"Up to me?" said the lady. She looked confused.

"Okay, one dollar?" asked the old woman.

"Oh, no. The stone is not good. I will not take it." 

The lady went out. Ten minutes later, an old ugly man came and said, " How much is this stone?"

"One dollar?" asked the old woman.

"Oh, no. I buy it for one hundred dollars," said the ugly man.

The old woman was very happy. Then, he went to the restaurant and ate many foods deliciously.

Next day, a bodyguard came into the village and gave announcement, "Ladies and Gentlemen, who is sell the stone to the old man, please come to the kingdom."

The old woman heard that and she went out. She said, "That's me." The old woman and the bodyguard came into the kingdom. They met a king.

The king said, "Do you sell the stone to the ugly man?"

"Yes," answered the old woman.

"Thank you. The stone make my princess healthy again. She was sick since three months ago. Your stone help my princess. Say three wishes!" said the king.

"Thank you, Sir. Okay, first I want home and live with the people," said the old woman.

"Oh, it's easy. Bodyguard! Make a home to the old woman and placed it in the city. Okay woman, second and third?" asked the king.

"None. Thank you. You are very kind and you help me. Thank you," said the woman.

Suddenly the old woman changed into a very handsome prince. The king was surprised. Finally, the prince and the princess got married and lived happily.
