She picked enough of them for herself and her mother but something unexpected happened. On her way home, she met an old woman who already knew her distress,but she asked the little girl if she could have some of the berries she had picked. The little girl didn’t thought for a second and gave some of her berries immediately to the old woman. The old women then asked ‘why do you give it to me if you needed yourself?’. ‘because i’m still young and strong’ replied the girl. ‘Don’t worry, I can look for them again and I’m sure I could find more’ said the girl cheerfully. The old women was pleased with what the girl had said. So, she presented her with a pot which had a special power.
