Sau đây là bản tiếng Anh của bộ truyện này | THE TURNIP There were two brothers who were both soldiers the one was rich and the other poor. The poor man thought he would try to better himself so pulling off his red coat he became a gardener and dug his ground well and sowed turnips. When the seed came up there was one plant bigger than all the rest and it kept getting larger and larger and seemed as if it would never cease growing so that it might have been called the prince of turnips for there never was such a one seen before and never will again. At last it was so big that it filled a cart and two oxen could hardly draw it and the gardener knew not what in the world to do with it nor whether it would be a blessing or a curse to him. One day he said to himself What shall I do with it if I sell it it will bring no more than another and for eating the little turnips are better than this the best thing perhaps is to carry it and give it to the king as a mark of respect. Then he yoked his oxen and drew the turnip to the court and gave it to the king. What a wonderful thing said the king I have seen many strange things but such a monster as this I never saw. Where did you get the seed or is it only your good luck If so you are a true child of fortune. Ah no answered the gardener I am no child of fortune I am a poor soldier who never could get enough to live upon so I laid aside my red coat and set to work tilling the ground. I have a brother who is rich and your majesty knows him well and all the world knows him but because I am poor everybody forgets me. The king then took pity on him and said You shall be poor no longer. I will give you so much that you shall be even richer than your brother. Then he gave him gold and lands and flocks and made him so rich that his brother s fortune could not at all be compared with his. When the brother heard of all this and how a turnip had made the gardener so rich he envied him sorely and bethought himself how he could contrive to get the same good fortune for himself. .
