MAGIC PUMPKIN
Good fairies often use pumpkins to grant wishes to people with pure hearts. The fairy made a golden carriage out of a pumpkin for Cinderella; In the fields of the most industrious people sometimes a pumpkin full of gold coins grows. I'll tell you about pumpkins that grew in Laos, near a small house. A lonely old man lived in this house. Pumpkins were the main decoration of his room: in the corners, turban-shaped pumpkins hung on vines, shimmering with colors, like New Year's toys; On the shelf above the fireplace lay big-eyed, warty pumpkins, and in the middle of the room a large golden pumpkin hung from the ceiling. A long time ago, my grandmother left the old man an inheritance of this house, a handful of seeds and advice: “Plant pumpkins near the house. Only pumpkins can grow in such barren land, and they will feed you.” The old man listened to his grandmother's advice and did not regret it. The pumpkins grew well. They could be stored for a year or even two, and there was always a supply of food in the house. One day an old man asked God to send him a new harvest of pumpkins. Suddenly, a golden pumpkin on the ceiling opened, and a golden-haired girl in a fire-orange dress came down from there. She handed the old man a vessel full of pumpkin seeds and said: “The Fairy of Life asked me to give you these seeds. Grow new pumpkins from them and heal people with them.” The beautiful girl disappeared, and the old man never saw her again. However, since then he always asked the pumpkin for advice, and in a melodious voice she explained to him how to find a way out of any trouble. From the seeds that the golden-haired girl gave, the old man grew new pumpkins, and every day he began to walk around the village with a basket of pumpkins. - Eat, grandma, these magic pumpkins ,
- he persuaded the lonely, weak old woman.
- Look at me, I ate pumpkins and became twice as young. “Nothing will bring back my youth.” “I wish I could get out of bed just once more,” my grandmother dreamed. A week later, meeting her at the well, the old man said: “You see, you didn’t believe that my pumpkins would raise you to your feet.” He explained to the happy mother, who thanked him for the birth of her son: “Don’t thank me, but the pumpkin that you ate for a whole year!” It was she who, with the help of her wonderful vitamin E, saved you from infertility. I advise you to continue to eat more pumpkin. It will protect you from inflammation, strengthen the baby’s bones, and make your milk abundant. One day an old man came into the hut of a poor woodcutter. The tree touched him and the wound on his leg festered. “I’m not a doctor, but my magic pumpkin is no worse than a doctor.” Now I will wash the wound with fresh pumpkin juice and make a bandage with pumpkin pulp so that the suppuration will go away. “Eat these pumpkins: they contain a huge amount of zinc, which is useful for healing wounds,” the old man explained. Soon the woodcutter brought the old man a bundle of fresh firewood and said with gratitude: “Grandfather, I will always bring you firewood for free.” Look, not a trace of my wound remains. “Thank not me, but the magic pumpkin,” answered the old man, “and take a couple more with you.” In addition to zinc, pumpkin contains a lot of copper and iron ,
which is an excellent remedy for strengthening the body. The old man helped village beauties maintain a fresh complexion using a mask made from pumpkin pulp. Even a local rich man who suffered from obesity was helped by a magic pumpkin to lose weight and dissolve kidney stones. When all the fields in the area burned out from a terrible drought, the pumpkin in the old man’s garden turned green, as if nothing had happened. At this time, she alone supplied the bees with nectar. The orange, huge flowers fed several bees at a time with nectar, and the old man produced unusually tasty pumpkins. Early one morning, a small wild bee woke up the old man and buzzed: “We have prepared honey for you in gratitude for the nectar and pollen from your pumpkin flowers.” “Thank you,” said the old man, “but I should thank you.” You did a great job to ensure that the pumpkin flower is well pollinated. The next year it rained all summer, and the crops in the fields were wet. The magic pumpkin advised the old man to hang the pumpkins on supports so that the breeze would blow through them. The harvest was a great success, and the old man fed the entire village with his pumpkins. Then the elders from five villages in the area invited the old man to a council and said: “Our fields are depleted, and the people are starving.” They say you have a magic pumpkin that gives wise advice. Let him advise how we should continue to live. “There’s no need to ask for advice here,” answered the old man, “just plant a pumpkin: it’s not afraid of drought or rain, and the harvest is excellent.” You just need to make sure that the weeds do not choke out the seedlings, and then the pumpkin will protect itself with its large leaves. They listened to the elders and planted pumpkin seeds everywhere, which the old man gave them. From these very seeds, pumpkins with amazing healing properties spread across the earth. Since then, in Laos and China, pumpkin has been called the king of vegetables and a symbol of rebirth, and its seeds are considered the food of immortality.
