Bawang Mewah and Bawang Putih

A long time ago, there was a really wealthy merchant who lived with his only daughter named Bawang Putih as his wife had long passed away. Bawang Putih was so obedient, nice, and kind-hearted that everyone loved her.

One day, in order to help him take care of his daughter, Bawang Putih’s father married a widow. Since then, Bawang Putih had a stepmother and a stepsister named Bawang Merah. They were really nice to Bawang Putih when the merchant was home. However, when he was away, they treated Bawang Putih just like a servant.

One day, the merchant had to go out of town for several weeks for his business. Bawang Putih’s terrible days were awaiting as his father’s away. Unfortunately, a week after his leave, a really bad news was brought by his father’s loyal servant. He told Bawang Putih and her new family that his father got into an accident and passed away.

Bawang Putih wept and cried. She felt miserable while Bawang Merah and her mom were excited. They only thought about the merchant’s properties. After her father’s death, Bawang Putih’s life was even worse. Bawang Merah and her mother tortured her. No one would be on her side and comfort her. After doing the house chores for the whole day, she would cry and pray at night.

One day, her stepmother assigned her to wash her expensive silky scarf. So, she immediately went to the river to wash that scarf along with the other clothes. Being tired, sleepy and hungry, she became less conscientious in her work. She lost the scarf. “Oh my goodness, where’s my mom’s favorite scarf? How can I be so careless? God, it’s drifting down the river. I have to get it back or my mom will scold me.”

Bawang Putih panicked. She went down the river and asked everyone she met. Then, she met an old woman who passed by the river bank. Bawang Putih stopped her and asked, “Excuse me, grandma. May I ask you?”

“Yes, my dear young lady. What can I help you?” “I have been looking for my mom’s red silky scarf, grandma. I was sloppy that I made the scarf drift down the river. I was wondering if you might have seen it floated down the river or stuck near here, grandma.

“Oh, that red scarf. I have it with me. I will give it to you later, but I need your help for now. I am a bit sick today and I have not eaten any. Can you help me prepare food and clean my house?”

Happily, Bawang Putih agreed and helped that old woman. She cooked some food for her, looked for firewood, picked some vegetables for grandma’s tomorrow’s food, cleaned the house, and washed grandma’s clothes. Those house chores were just easy for Bawang Putih to do as she used to do the same chores every day at home. After finishing the work, grandma finally gave me the scarf.

“Bawang Putih, here is your mother’s red scarf that you are looking for. And, I have a gift for you. I have two pumpkins and I will give you one of them, just choose one that you like.”

“I am so happy to help you, grandma. And I think you need that pumpkin more than me, you can cook it for your meals tomorrow. I have picked you some vegetables and I think pumpkin soup will be perfect for your side dish,” Bawang Putih smiled politely.

“I want to give you. Just pick one of them,” insisted grandmother.”

“Okay, grandma. I will take the small one.”

“Good. But, you have to remember that you can only open that pumpkin when you are home.”

“Sure, grandma.”

Bawang Putih, then, immediately went home. Of course, as she reached home her stepmother scolded her because she came home so late that the dinner was not ready yet for her and Bawang Merah. Then, Bawang Putih went to the kitchen, took a knife and cut the pumpkin. What a surprise, the pumpkin was full of sparkling jewelry. Bawang Putih who was innocent and kind-hearted immediately shouted with joy and told her stepmother about it. She finally told everything she did on that day.

“Oh Bawang Putih, why didn’t you take the large one? It must have more jewelry in it,” scolded her stepmother. Then, she told Bawang Merah to do the same thing on the following day. The next day, those two greedy people went to the old woman’s house where Bawang Putih got the pumpkin from. They pretended to be nice. They helped grandmother to do the house chores. However, they grumbled all day long.

As they finished their work, the old woman asked them to pick one of the two pumpkins. They certainly took the big one. Like what she did with Bawang Putih, she also reminded Bawang Merah and her mother not to open the pumpkin until they were home. They just nodded their heads and said yes.

On the way home, they were impatient and decided to open the pumpkin immediately. Unexpectedly, what they found from the pumpkin were not sparkling jewelries, but venomous animals such as snakes, scorpions, spiders, centipedes and many others. They were both bitten by the animals and could not help themselves. You reap what you sow.
