The fox and the crane became friends. One day the fox decided to give the crane a treat and went to invite him to visit.
- Come, godfather, come, dear! How can I treat you! The crane is going to a feast, and the fox made semolina porridge and spread it on the plate. Served and treated: - Eat, my dear godfather! I cooked it myself.
The crane slammed his nose, knocked, knocked, nothing came of it! And at the same time the fox licked and licked the porridge, so she ate it all herself.
The porridge is eaten, the fox says: “Don’t blame me, dear godfather!” There’s nothing else to regale you with. “Thank you, godfather, and that’s it!” Come visit me.
The next day the fox comes, and the crane prepared okroshka, put it in a jug with a small neck, put it on the table and said: “Eat, gossip!” Really, there’s nothing else to regale you with.
The fox began to spin around the jug, and he would come in this way and that, and lick it, and sniff it, but he wouldn’t get anything! My head won't fit into the jug. Meanwhile, the crane pecks and pecks until it has eaten everything. “Well, don’t blame me, godfather!” There was nothing more to treat. The fox was annoyed, thought that he would eat enough for a whole week, and went home as if he had not eaten enough salt.
As it came back, it responded! Since then, the fox and the crane have been apart in their friendship.
