Several months later, their wishes come true. Queen had become pregnant. All the people in the kingdom was delighted. They flooded the court with a gift.

Nine months later, the Queen gave birth to a daughter. Inhabitants of the land went back to send the little princess of different prizes. The baby had grown into a funny child. A dozen years later, he had become a beautiful teenager.
