Read the fairy tale Ivanushka the Fool

There was an old man and an old woman; They had three sons: two were smart, the third was Ivanushka the Fool. The smart ones tended the sheep in the field, but the fool did nothing, just sat on the stove and caught flies.

One day the old woman cooked some rye dumplings and said to the fool:

Come on, take these dumplings to the brothers; let them eat.

She poured a full pot and gave it to him; he wandered towards his brothers. The day was sunny; As soon as Ivanushka left the outskirts, he saw his shadow on the side and thought:

“What kind of person is this? He walks next to me, not a step behind: right, he wanted some dumplings?” And he began to throw dumplings at his shadow, and so he threw away every single one; looks, and the shadow keeps walking from the side.

What an insatiable womb! - said the fool with a heart and threw a pot at her - the shards scattered in different directions.

So he comes empty-handed to his brothers; they ask him:

You fool, why?

I brought you lunch.

Where's lunch? Come on lively.

Look, brothers, an unknown person got attached to me on the way and ate everything!

What kind of person is this?

Here he is! And now it’s standing nearby!

The brothers scold him, beat him, beat him; They beat off and forced the sheep to graze, and they themselves went to the village to dine.

The fool began to herd; sees that the sheep have scattered across the field, let's catch them and tear out their eyes. He caught everyone, gouged out everyone’s eyes, gathered the herd into one heap and the little one sits there as if he had done the job. The brothers had lunch and returned to the field.

What have you done, fool? Why is the flock blind?

Why do they have eyes? When you left, brothers, the sheep scattered apart, and I came up with an idea: I started catching them, collecting them in a pile, tearing out their eyes - how tired I was!

Wait, you’re not so crazy yet! - the brothers say and let’s treat him with their fists; The fool got a lot of nuts!

Not much time had passed, the old people sent Ivan the Fool to the city to buy household chores for the holiday. Ivanushka bought everything: he bought a table, spoons, cups, and salt; a whole cartload of all sorts of things. He’s going home, and the little horse is such an unlucky little horse: he’s lucky or unlucky!

“Well,” Ivanushka thinks to himself, “the horse has four legs and the table also has four, so the table will run away on its own.”

He took the table and put it on the road. He drives and drives, whether close or far, and the crows hover over him and keep cawing.

“You know, the sisters are hungry to eat, that they shouted so much!” thought the fool. He placed the dishes with food on the ground and began to regale:

Little sisters! Eat for your health.

And he keeps moving forward and forward.

Ivanushka is driving through a forest; All the stumps along the road are burnt.

“Eh,” he thinks, the guys are without hats; After all, they’ll be cold, dear ones!”

He took pots and pots and put them on them. So Ivanushka reached the river, let’s water the horse, but she still doesn’t drink.

“You know, he doesn’t want it without salt!” - and well, salt the water. I poured out a bag full of salt, but the horse still didn’t drink.

Why don’t you drink, wolf meat? Did I pour out a bag of salt for nothing?

He grabbed her with a log, right in the head - and killed her on the spot. Ivanushka had only one purse of spoons left, and he carried that too. As he goes, the spoons go back and clang: clang, clank, clang! And he thinks that the spoons say: “Ivanushka is a fool!” - he threw them and, well, trampled them and said:

Here's Ivanushka the Fool! Here's Ivanushka the Fool! They even decided to tease you, you bastards! He returned home and said to his brothers:

I've redeemed everything, brothers!

Thank you, fool, but where are your purchases?

And the table runs away, yes, you know, it fell behind, they eat from the sisters’ dishes, he put pots and pots on the heads of the children in the forest, he salted the horse’s swill with salt; and the spoons were teasing - so I left them on the road.

Go, you fool, quickly! Collect everything you scattered along the road!

Ivanushka went into the forest, removed the pots from the charred stumps, knocked out the bottoms and put a dozen different pots on the batog: both large and small. Brings it home. His brothers beat him off; We went to the city ourselves to do some shopping, and left the fool to run the house. A fool listens, but the beer in the tub just ferments and ferments.

Beer, don't ferment! Don't tease the fool! - says Ivanushka.

No, beer doesn't listen; He took it and let everything out of the tub, sat down in the trough, drove around the hut and sang songs.

The brothers arrived, became very angry, took Ivanushka, sewed him up in a sack and dragged him to the river. They put the sack on the shore, and they themselves went to inspect the ice hole.

At that time, some gentleman was riding past in a troika of brown ones; Ivanushka and well shout:

They put me in the voivodeship to judge and dress, but I can neither judge nor dress!

Wait, fool,” said the master, “I know how to judge and judge; get out of the bag!

Ivanushka got out of the sack, sewed the master there, and he got into his cart and drove out of sight. The brothers came, lowered the sack under the ice and listened; and in the water it just gurgles.

You know, the burka catches! - the brothers said and wandered home.

Out of nowhere, Ivanushka rides towards them in a troika, rides and boasts:

That's a hundred horses I caught! And Sivko was still there - so nice!

The brothers became jealous; say to a fool:

Now sew us up and quickly lower us into the hole! Sivko will not leave us...

Ivan the Fool lowered them into the ice hole and drove them home to finish their beer and commemorate their brothers.

Ivanushka had a well, in the well there was a dace fish, and my fairy tale was over.

About Ivan the Fool, Emelya on the stove, Sivka-Burka and Elena the Beautiful

There lived three brothers.

Two are the eldest, and the third is Ivan the Fool. It was a shame when everyone thought he was a fool and then he had everyone.

He was cunning and hardened, Vanyatka. I trained from morning until yesterday. Jumping and jumping on a horse, handling weapons, training without weapons, strengthening muscles and tempering the will...

But I trained in such a way that the muscles did not bulge, but simply looked like those of an ordinary strong guy, only the strength and speed were out of this world.

Somehow some bastard got into the habit of gnawing bark from trees in the garden.

The elder brother went to guard the garden and fell asleep.

The next night the middle brother went to guard, but he also overslept the devourer.

And when Ivan the Fool stepped in, he took the security job seriously - he didn’t sleep.

He sees a horse, half gilded, half silver, galloping through the garden and eating bark.

He threw the belt over her and no matter how hard the horse tried to escape, he didn’t let go.

“Well, no,” answered Ivan the Fool.

I, as soon as you say - Sivka-Burka, prophetic kaurka, stand in front of me like a leaf in front of the grass! - I'll show up right away. And you and I will break all records in speed, endurance and jumping ability.

Ardent! - Ivanushka answered. - Zer gud.

And he released Sivka-Burka.

And at this time, in the same village, the stupid, lazy and cattle Emelya, who lived on the outskirts, caught a magic pike in a well and it, according to the pike's command, according to his, the cattle's, desire, fulfilled all his wishes.

Otherwise, he promised to devour it, but Pike turned out to be cooler than the goldfish.

Emelya, when he needed to go anywhere, said, “At the behest of the pike, at my will, come on, take me from point A to point B. And she did!”

Ivan rides around on Sivka-burka, and Emelya comes out to overtake on the stove.

Well, let’s add more,” says Ivan the Fool. - Schneller, Schweine! Tiss kerek, At!

But Emelya bypasses him on the stove at the turn. And he’s still laughing, such a bastard!

Das ist shlecht! Yaramy!

Ivan the Fool was offended and wanted to treat Emelya with a gift to his beloved, with which he once turned the Snake-Gorynych from a three-headed man into a two-headed one, but he hit not Emelya, but the chimney of the stove. He tore the pipe apart, but at Emel’s pike command, he repaired everything without any effort.

Ivan the Fool had a noble gift. A steel tube with a rope inserted into it, and a nut weighing 250 grams was screwed to the rope, and Ivan the Fool wielded it surprisingly deftly.

And then a whim entered the king’s head.

He decided to marry his daughter to the best rider.

And the daughter is good! Wow, good! Her name was Elena the Beautiful.

She sits in a high-high window. She stuck out her hand with the ring. Whoever jumps on the horse and takes the ring off the handle will become her husband.

And below the window there is a deep hole, and in it there are sharp pegs for complete sensations.

So that, it means, not just to jump, but with meaning, Ivan the Fool rushes from acceleration on Sivka-Burka, and on the other hand, Emelya the Lazy Cattle on the stove is preparing for a vertical take-off. Ivan the Fool soared into the sky on Sivka-Burka. And on the other hand, overtaking Emelya on his filthy stove. Overtook Emel Ivanushka. He stole the ring from Elena the Beautiful's hand. But Ivanushka grabbed Elena herself across the body, threw her over the saddle and was gone.

Emelya came to the king to download the rights.

Here is your ring, Tsar, give it to Elena.

“But no,” the king answers, while you were playing with the ring. Ivan the Fool stole Elena.

Emelya was offended. He ordered the furnace to find the fugitives at the order of the pike. I found it, but not to my delight. Ivan gave him his gift to taste, first he broke a pipe on the stove, and the second time he broke Emelya’s head, and no pike command helped.

And what will help against good preparation.

And Ivanushka and Elena, having spent a good weekend, returned to the king.

And they began to live together regularly and with pleasure.

This is where the fairy tale ends, and anyone who understands that superpowers also require constant training and pumping, as well as motivation, is simply WELL DONE!
