here is the story itself: Fedin's task Once, one winter, Fedya Rybkin came from the skating rink. There was no one at home. Fedya's younger sister, Rina, has already done her homework and went to play with her friends. Mother also went somewhere. - That's good! Fedya said. “At least no one will interfere with doing homework.” He turned on the radio, took out a task book from his bag and began to look for a task assigned to the house. “We are transmitting a concert by request,” a voice announced on the radio. “A concert is good,” Fedya said. - It will be more fun to do homework. He adjusted the loudspeaker so that it was louder, and sat down at the table. - Well, what is it for us at home? Problem number six hundred thirty nine? So... "Four hundred and fifty sacks of rye were delivered to the mill, eighty kilograms each..." The sounds of the piano were heard from the loudspeaker and someone's voice sang in a rumbling thick bass: Once upon a time there was a king
A flea lived with him.
Mile brother
She was to him.

The nursery was covered with new wallpaper. The wallpaper was very good, with colorful flowers. But no one overlooked - not the clerk who tried

wallpaper, neither the mother who bought them, nor the nurse Anna, nor the maid Masha, nor the cook Domna, in a word, no one, not a single person, overlooked this.

The painter glued a wide strip of paper at the very top, along the entire cornice. Five sitting dogs were drawn on the strip, and in the middle of them - a yellow chicken with a pompomushka on its tail. Nearby again sitting in a circle five dogs and a chicken. There are again dogs and a chicken with a pompushka nearby. And so along the whole room under the ceiling sat five dogs and a chicken, five dogs and a chicken ...

The painter pasted on the strip, climbed down the stairs and said:

But he said it in such a way that it was not just “well, well,” but something worse. Yes, and the painter was an extraordinary painter, so smeared with chalk and different paints that it was difficult to make out whether he was young or old, whether he was a good person or a bad person.

The painter took the ladder, stomped down the corridor with heavy boots and disappeared through the back door - only they saw him.

And then it turned out: my mother had never bought such a strip with dogs and chickens.

But - there is nothing to do. Mom came to the nursery and said:

Well, very nice - dogs and chicken - and told the children to go to bed.

Our mother had two of us children, me and Zina. We lay down to sleep. Zina says to me:

You know? And the chicken's name is Fofka.

I'm asking:

How is Fofka?

And so, you'll see for yourself.

We couldn't sleep for a long time. Suddenly Zina whispers:

Are your eyes open?

No, screwed up.

Can't you hear anything?

I pricked up both ears, I hear - crackles somewhere, squeaks. I opened a crack in one eye, I looked - the lamp was blinking, and shadows were running along the wall, like balls. At this time, the lamp crackled and went out.

Zina immediately crawled under the covers with me, we closed ourselves with our heads. She says:

Fofka drank all the oil in the lamp.

I'm asking:

And why did the balls jump on the wall?

It was Fofka who ran away from the dogs, thank God they caught him.

In the morning we woke up, we looked - the lamp was completely empty, and upstairs, in one place, near Fofka's beak - a drop of oil.

We immediately told all this to my mother, she did not believe anything, laughed. The cook Domna laughed, the maid Masha laughed too, and only the nurse Anna shook her head.

In the evening, Zina says to me again:

Did you see the babysitter shake her head?

Will there be something? The nurse is not the kind of person to shake his head in vain. Do you know why we have Fofka? In punishment for our pranks with you. That's why the nurse shook her head. Let's better remember all the pranks, otherwise it will be even worse.

We began to remember. Remembered, remembered, remembered and confused. I'm talking:

Do you remember how we took a rotten board at the dacha and laid it across the stream? There was a tailor in glasses, we Shout: "Go, please, across the board, it's closer here." The board broke and the tailor fell into the water. And then Domna stroked his stomach with an iron, because he sneezed.

Zina says:

It's not true, it didn't happen, we read it, it was done by Max and Moritz.

I'm talking:

Not a single book will write about such a nasty prank. This is what we did.

Then Zina sat down on my bed, pursed her lips and said in a disgusting voice:

And I say: they will write, and I say: in a book, and I say: you fish at night.

This, of course, I could not bear. We got into a fight right now. Suddenly someone bit me terribly painfully on the nose. I look, and Zina holds on to her nose.

What are you? I ask Zina. And she answers me in a whisper:

Fofka. It was he who pecked.

Then we realized that we would not live from Fofka. Zina immediately began to cry. I waited and also roared. The nanny came, took us to our beds, said that if we did not fall asleep this very minute, then Fofka would peck off our whole nose to the very cheek.

The next day we climbed in the hallway behind the closet. Zina says:

Fofka needs to be finished off.

They began to think about how we could get rid of Fofka. Zina had money - for decals. Decided to buy buttons. They took time off for a walk and ran straight to the Bee shop. There, two high school students from the preparatory course bought pictures for pasting. A whole bunch of these wonderful pictures lay on the counter, and Mrs. "Bee" herself, with her cheek tied up, admired, regretting parting with them. And yet we asked Mrs. "Bees" buttons for all thirty kopecks.

Then they returned home, waited for father and mother to leave the yard, crept into the office, where there was a wooden lacquered staircase from the library, and dragged the staircase to the nursery.

Zina took the box with the buttons, climbed up the stairs to the very ceiling and said:

Repeat after me: my brother Nikita and I give our word of honor never to be naughty, and if we are naughty, then not very much, and even if we are very naughty, we ourselves will demand that they do not give us sweets either at lunch or at dinner, not at four o'clock. And you, Fofka, go away, mind, mind, perish!

And when we both said it loudly in one voice, Zina pinned Fofka with a button to the wall. And so she pinned it quickly and deftly - she didn’t utter a word, didn’t jerk her foot. There were sixteen Fofoks in all, and Zina pinned them all with buttons, and anointed the noses of each dog with jam.

Since then, Fofka is no longer afraid of us. Although late last night there was fuss on the ceiling, squeaking and scratching, but Zina and I fell asleep peacefully, because the buttons were not just some buttons, but bought from Mrs. "Bee".

Once upon a time there lived a peasant with his wife. They had three daughters, all three beauties. The older two are lazy and attire, they should all sit and preen; and the third, the youngest - Alyonushka - hardworking and modest. More beautiful than all the sisters was Alyonushka. Alyonushka takes care of everything: she will clean the hut, and cook dinner, and fly out the garden, and bring water. She was affectionate with her parents, friendly to people. Her father and mother loved her more than all the daughters. And from this older sisters envy took.


Once father and mother left for the field. A poor old woman came up to the house and asked for bread. The elder sisters did not even want to talk to her, and Alyonushka brought the old woman a roll and escorted her out of the gate.
“Thank you, girl,” said the old woman. - For your kindness, here's some advice for you: your father will go to the fair, ask him to buy you a silver saucer and a bulk apple for fun. You will roll an apple on a saucer and say:

And if you need, girl, I will help you. Remember: I live on the edge of a dense forest, and it takes exactly three days and three nights to go to my hut.
The old woman said these words and went into the forest.
How much, how little time has passed, the peasant gathered for the fair.
He asks his daughters:
- What kind of guests to buy?
One daughter asks:
- Buy me, father, kumach for a sundress.
Another says:
- Buy me a patterned chintz.
And Alyonushka asks:
- My dear light-father, buy me a silver saucer and a bulk apple.
The peasant promised his daughters to fulfill their request and left. He returned from the fair, brought gifts for his daughters: one - a patterned calico, the other - a kumach for a sundress, and Alyonushka - a silver saucer and a bulk apple. The older sisters rejoice at the gifts, and they laugh at Alyonushka and wait for what she will do with a silver saucer and a bulk apple.
And she does not eat an apple, sat in a corner, rolls an apple on a saucer and says:

An apple rolls on a saucer, poured on a silver one, and on a saucer all the cities are visible, villages in the fields and ships on the seas, and the heights of the mountains, and the beauty of the heavens, the clear sun is spinning with a bright moon, the stars are gathering in a round dance; everything is so wonderful that neither in a fairy tale can be said, nor described with a pen.
The sisters looked, envy took them, they wanted to lure a saucer with an apple from Alyonushka. But Alyonushka does not take anything in return.
Then the sisters decided to take away the saucer with the apple from her by deceit and force. Walking around, talking:
- Darling Alyonushka! Let's go to the forest for berries, pick strawberries.
Alyonushka agreed, gave the saucer with the apple to her father and went with her sisters into the forest.
Alyonushka wanders through the forest, picking berries, and her sisters lead her further and further. They took him into the thicket, attacked Alyonushka, killed him and buried him under a birch, and late in the evening they came to his father and mother and said:
- Alyonushka ran away from us and disappeared. We went around the whole forest, and did not find it: apparently, the wolves ate it.
The father and mother wept bitterly, and the sisters ask their father for a saucer and an apple.
- No, - he answers them, - I will not give anyone a saucer with an apple. Let them be in memory of Alyonushka, my beloved daughter.
He put the apple with a saucer in the chest and closed it.

F or-were a peasant with his wife. They had three daughters, all three beauties. The older two are lazy and attire, all they have to do is sit and preen; and the third, the youngest, Alyonushka is hard-working and modest. More beautiful than all the sisters was Alyonushka.

Alyonushka takes care of everything: she will clean up the hut, and cook dinner, and fly out the garden, and bring water. She was affectionate with her parents, friendly to people. Her father and mother loved her more than all the daughters. And from this older sisters envy took. Once father and mother left for the field. A poor old woman came up to the house and asked for bread. The older sisters didn’t even want to talk to her, and Alyonushka brought out a kalach to the old woman and escorted her out of the gate.

Thank you, girl, - said the old woman. - For your kindness, here's some advice for you: your father will go to the fair, ask him to buy you a silver saucer and a poured apple for fun. You will roll an apple on a saucer and say:

Roll, roll, bullseye

On a silver platter

Show me on a silver platter

Cities and fields

And forests and seas

And mountains high

And heavenly beauty.

And if you need, girl, I will help you. Remember: I live on the edge of a dense forest and it takes exactly three days and three nights to go to my hut.

The old woman said these words and went into the forest.

How much, how little time has passed, the peasant gathered for the fair.

And Alyonushka asks:

The peasant promised his daughters to fulfill their request and left.

He returned from the fair, brought gifts to his daughters: one - patterned chintz, the other - a red coat for a sundress, and Alyonushka - a silver saucer and a bulk apple. The older sisters rejoice at the gifts, and they laugh at Alyonushka and wait for what she will do with a silver saucer and a bulk apple.

And she does not eat an apple, sat in a corner, rolls an apple on a saucer and says:

Roll, roll, bullseye

On a silver platter

Show me on a silver platter

Cities and fields

And forests and seas

And mountains high

And heavenly beauty.

An apple rolls on a saucer, poured on a silver one, and on a saucer all the cities are visible, villages in the fields, and ships on the seas, and the heights of the mountains, and the beauty of the heavens, the clear sun is spinning with a bright moon, the stars are gathering in a round dance; everything is so wonderful that it is neither in a fairy tale to say, nor to write with a pen.

Alyonushka agreed, gave the saucer with the apple to her father and went with her sisters into the forest.

Alyonushka wanders through the forest, picking berries, and her sisters lead her further and further. They took him into the thicket, attacked Alyonushka, killed him and buried him under a birch tree, and late in the evening they came to his father and mother and said:

Alyonushka ran away from us and disappeared. We went around the whole forest, and did not cough. Apparently the wolves ate it.

The father and mother wept bitterly, and the sisters ask their father for a saucer and an apple.

No, - he answers them, - I will not give anyone a saucer with an apple. Let them be in memory of Alyonushka, my beloved daughter.

He put the apple with a saucer in the chest and closed it.

A lot of time has passed. At dawn the shepherd drove the flock past the forest. One sheep lagged behind and went into the forest. The shepherd went through the forest to look for a sheep. He sees - there is a slender white birch, and under it is a tubercle, and on it around the flowers are scarlet, azure, and above the flowers there is a reed.

The shepherd cut off a reed, made a pipe, and - a wonderful marvel, a wonderful miracle - the pipe itself sings, pronounces:

Play, play, shepherd boy,

Play it slow

Play lightly.

Poor me, they killed me

They put it under the birch

For a silver platter

For a pouring apple.

The shepherd came to the village, and the pipe still sings its song.

People listen - they are amazed, they ask the shepherd.

Good people, - says the shepherd, - I don't know anything. I was looking for a sheep in the forest and saw a hillock, flowers on the hillock, a reed above the flowers. I cut a reed, made myself a pipe, and the pipe itself plays, pronounces.

Alyonushka's father and mother happened here, and they heard the words of the shepherdess. The mother grabbed the pipe, and the pipe itself sings, pronounces:

Play, play, dear mother,

Play it slow

Play lightly.

Poor me, they killed me

They put it under the birch

For a silver platter

For a pouring apple.

The hearts of the father and mother sank when they heard these words.

Lead us, shepherd, - said the father, - to where you cut the reed.

Father and mother followed the shepherd into the forest, and the people went with them. We saw a tubercle under a birch with scarlet, azure flowers. They began to tear the tubercle and found the murdered Alyonushka.

The father and mother recognized their beloved daughter and wept inconsolable tears.

Good people, they ask, who killed, ruined her?

Then the father took a pipe, and the pipe itself sings, pronounces:

Play, play, light-father,

Play it slow

Play lightly.

My sisters called me into the forest,

Poor me, they killed me

They put it under the birch

For a silver platter

For a pouring apple.

You go, go, light father,

To the edge of the dense forest,

There stands a boarded hut,

A kind old woman lives in it,

She will give living water in a bottle.

Sprinkle me a little with that water -

Wake up, wake up from a heavy sleep,

From the heavy sleep, from the sleep of death.

Then the father and mother went to the edge of the dense forest. They walked exactly three days and three nights and reached a forest hut. An old woman came out onto the porch. Her father and mother asked her for living water.

I will help Alyonushka, - the old woman answers, - for her kind heart.

She gave them a bottle of living water and said:

Pour a handful of native land into a flask - without that, water will not have power.

The father and mother thanked the old woman with an earthly bow, and went back.

They came to the village, poured, as the old woman ordered, a handful of their native land into a flask with living water, took the likhodek sisters with them and went into the forest. And the people went with them.

They came to the forest. The father sprinkled his daughter with living water - Alyonushka came to life. And the sisters-likhodeyki were frightened, they became whiter than the canvas and confessed everything. People seized them, tied them up and brought them to the village.

The people have gathered here. And they decided to punish the likhodek sisters with a terrible punishment - to drive them away from their native land. So they did.

And Alyonushka again began to live with her father, with her mother, and they loved her more than ever.

Once upon a time there lived a peasant with his wife. They had three daughters, all three beauties. The older two are lazy and attire, they should all sit and preen; and the third, the youngest - Alyonushka - hardworking and modest. More beautiful than all the sisters was Alyonushka.

You go, go, light father.
To the edge of the dense forest,
There stands a boarded hut,
A kind old woman lives in it,
She will give living water in a bottle,
Sprinkle me a little with that water, -
Wake up, wake up from a heavy sleep,
From the heavy sleep, from the sleep of death.

Then the father and mother went to the edge of the dense forest. They walked exactly three days and three nights and reached a forest hut. An old woman came out onto the porch. Her father and mother asked her for living water.
- I will help Alyonushka, - the old woman answers, - for her kind heart.
She gave them a bottle of living water and said:
- Pour a handful of native land into a flask, without that the water will not have power.
The father and mother thanked the old woman with an earthly bow and went back.
They came to the village, poured, as the old woman ordered, a handful of their native land into a flask with living water, took the likhodek sisters with them and went into the forest. And the people went with them.
They came to the forest. The father sprinkled his daughter with living water - Alyonushka came to life. And the sisters-likhodeyki were frightened, they became whiter than the canvas and confessed everything. People seized them, tied them up and brought them to the village.
The people have gathered here. And they decided to punish the likhodek sisters with a terrible punishment - to drive them away from their native land. So they did.
And Alyonushka again began to live with her father, with her mother, and they loved her more than ever.
