The Magic Brocade

This happened many years ago. One old woman lived in a small village with three sons. Her husband died long ago and the woman needed money. The family lived very poorly. The house was old, dark and uncomfortable. Most of the furniture broke down. But the woman did not give up. Every day she worked hard and tried to provide children with everything they needed. She was a weaver and created beautiful fabrics. The woman worked hard for five days, and on Saturday she went to the market and sold her fabrics. She rested only on Sundays. One day, the weaver saw something unusual on the market: it was a painting of a beautiful house with a cozy garden. The woman approached the seller and asked how much this painting was. The man replied that it was worth as much as the woman could pay.
