In ancient times, on an island called Buyan, lived a pair of very poor grandparents.
The grandfather's livelihood is to fish in the sea. Although almost every day the grandfather went fishing fish, but the results obtained just enough to eat everyday. One day when the grandfather was fishing, suddenly his net was heavy.like there is a giant fish trapped inside.
"Ah, it must be a very big fish," thought the grandfather.
With all his might he pulled his net. But there was nothing but a small fish stuck in his net. Apparently the little fish is not an ordinary fish, its body glistens like gold and can speak like a human.
"Grandpa, please let me go.I will grant all your requests! "said the golden fish.
The grandfather thought for a moment, then said, "I do not need anything from you, but I will release you. Go!".
Grandfather releases the golden fish back to the sea, then he returns home.when he got home, my grandmother asked about the grandfather catch.
"Today I only got one golden fish, and even then I have come back," said grandpa, "I'm sure it was a magical fish, because he can talk. He said he'll reward me if I let him go. "
"Then what do you ask for," asked the grandmother.
"Nothing," said Grandpa.
"Oh, how stupid!" Cried the grandmother."At least you can ask for bread for us to eat. Go and ask for it! "So reluctantly the grandfather returned to the shore and exclaimed:
O magical golden fish, come here ...
Grind our wishes!
Suddenly the golden fish appeared at sea level."What do you want, grandpa?" He said.
"My wife is angry with me, give me bread for dinner, then she will forgive me!" Pleaded the grandfather.
"Go home! I have sent many loaves of bread to your house, "said the fish.
Then go home the grandfather.upon arrival at home, found the dining table full of bread.
But his wife still looks angry at him, he says:
"We've got plenty of bread, but our sink is broken, I can not wash the dishes.go back to the sea, and ask the magical fish to give us a new sink! "said the grandmother.
Forced the grandfather back to the edge of the sea and exclaimed:
O magical golden fish, come here ...
Grind our wishes!
"Oops!" The golden fish appeared, "What else do you want, grandpa?"
"Grandma told me to ask you to give us a new sink," asked Grandpa.
"All right," said the fish. "You can have a new sink too."
The grandfather was back home. Not to mention stepping on the page, the grandmother had blocked it. "Go again! Ask the golden fish to make us a new home.we can not stay here all the time, this house is about to collapse. "
So the grandfather returns to the edge of the sea and exclaims:
O magical golden fish, come here ...
Grind our wishes!
In an instant the golden fish appeared before the grandfather, "what do you want anymore, grandpa?"
"Make us a new house!" Pleaded grandpa, "my wife is very angry, she does not want to stay in our old house because the house is almost collapsed."
"Calm grandpa! Go home! I've got your wish. "
Grandpa went home.when he got home, he saw that his house had become new. The house is beautiful and made of strong wood. And at the door of the house, my grandmother was waiting for her with a face that looked much more angry than before.
"You stupid grandpa! Do not think I'll be satisfied just by making this new house.go back, and ask the gold fish that I do not want to be a fisherman's wife. I want to be a noble lady. So others will obey my wishes and respect me! "
For the umpteenth time, the grandfather returns to the edge of the sea and exclaims:
O magical golden fish, come here ...
Grind our wishes!
In an instant the golden fish appeared before the grandfather, "what do you want anymore, grandpa?"
"My wife can not calm me down.
She was even more angry. He said he was tired of being a fisherman's wife and wanted to be a noble lady "asked grandpa
"OK.Go home! Your wish has been granted! "Said the golden fish.
How surprised the grandfather when he returned was now his house has turned into a magnificent house.
Made of strong stone, three stories high, with a lot of servants in it.the grandfather sees his wife sitting on a high chair busy giving orders to the servants.
"Hello my wife," the grandpa said.
"How rude," said the grandmother. "How dare you claim to be my husband. Waiter! Take her to the warehouse and give her 40 lashes! "
Soon some of the servants dragged him into the storeroom and whipped him until he could barely stand.The next day his wife ordered grandfather to work as a gardener. His job is to sweep the yard and take care of the garden. "You wicked woman!" Thought the grandfather."I've given her a fortune but she does not even want to admit me as her husband."
Gradually the old lady got tired of being a noble lady, so she called back to her grandfather: "Old man, go back to your golden fish and tell him this: I do not want to be a noble lady, I want to be queen."
So the grandfather returned to the edge of the sea and exclaimed "
O magical golden fish, come here ...
Grind our wishes!
In an instant the golden fish appeared before the old man, "what do you want again, grandpa?"
"My wife is getting too much. He does not want to be a noble lady, but wants to be queen. "
"OK. Go home! Your wish has been granted! "Said the golden fish.
When he got to his grandfather in the place where his house had once stood, he now saw a gold-roofed palace with the guards passing by.his wife who now berpakainan like a queen standing on the balcony surrounded by generals and governors. And as soon as he raises his hand, the drums will sound to music and the soldiers will cheer.
After all this time, the grandmother was tired of being a queen again. So he ordered the generals to find the grandfather and bring him before him.the whole palace was busy looking for the grandfather. Eventually they find the grandfather in the garden and take her to the queen.
"Listen, old man! You must go see your golden fish! Tell him I do not want to be queen anymore. I want to be a sea goddess so all the seas and fish around the world obey my commands. "
Grandpa was shocked at his wife's request, he tried to refuse.but what is the power of his life is the stakes, then he is forced to return to the edge of the sea and exclaim:
O magical golden fish, come here ...
Grind our wishes!
This time the golden fish did not appear in front of him.
Grandpa tried to call again, but the golden fish still did not want to appear in front of him. He tried to call for the third time. Suddenly the sea began to roar and rumble.and when it began to subside came the golden fish, "what do you want again, grandpa?"
"My wife really has gone mad," Grandpa said. "She does not want to be queen anymore but wants to be a sea goddess who can manage the oceans and command all fish."
The golden fish paused and without saying anything he disappeared back into the sea. The grandfather was forced to return home.he could hardly believe his eyesight when he realized that the magnificent palace and all its contents had been lost. Now there he stood a reot hut he had once lived in. And inside it sat the grandmother in her tattered clothes. They come back to life as they used to. Grandfather back to sea.but no matter how hard grandparents work, the results are just enough to eat everyday.
