There was a beautiful girl called Bawang Putih, She lived with her cruel
step-mother and a naughty daughter, Bawang Merah. Both of them always
treated Bawang Putih rudely as if she were a servant. Bawang Putih had
to do all the house duties all day long, such as cooking, sweeping,
washing their clothes, while they were going around, shopping. Bawang
Putih often cried in her room. She really missed her mother.
In one morning, Bawang Putih washed clothes in the river. But she
panicked to find out her step-mother’s favorite gown. She walked along
the river to find it. While searching for the clothes near a forest, she
met a kind hearted giant. The sky was turning dark, so the giant asked
her to stay in its house for a night. Bawang Putih helped the giant to
clean its house. The giant really liked her because she was very
diligent, then it gave her two gourds as a reward, a small one and a big
one. Bawang Putih told it that she just wanted to help not a reward, so
she chose the small one. When she opened, it was full of gold and
jewelry.
