Once Upon a Time

Жили-были...

Also known as Жили-были, Zhyli-byli, Zhyli-byli...

Strange things are happening in one quiet peasant hut. An old man and an old woman and their little granddaughter lived in it. The family had the hen Ryaba and once she laid down an egg, but not a simple, but the golden one. Grandfather and grandmother were watching, and the egg has turned into a turnip. They began, as usual, to drag and pull it, but the spouses did not have cats or dogs. There was a mouse, however, but she did not show any particular desire to take part in the common work.
