Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful girl named Tấm. She was very young when her mother died. But despite her mother’s absence, Tấm was a very happy girl since her father, who loved her dearly, devoted his days raising her and looking after her. However, things changed when Tấm’s father fell in love with a wicked lady, whom he married and later gave birth to a daughter named Cám.

Time passed, and news have spread around about the grand celebration the King will hold. As, everyone in the kingdom is invited, Tấm looked forward to attending the ball. The day finally came and everyone was excited. To prevent Tấm from coming to the celebration, her stepmother mixed two big baskets of black and green beans together then told her to sort them out before she is allowed to go. Dressed in lovely gowns, her stepmother and Cám left poor Tấm alone in the house.

Tấm tearfully sorted the beans, knowing she could never finish them on time to catch up with the ball. But suddenly, the Goddess of Mercy came before her, turned the flies into sparrows and sorted the beans in no time. Tấm was then told to dig up the four jars she buried underneath the corners of her bed. To her surprise, each jar contained extravagant treasures of a beautiful silk dress, jewelries, golden slippers and a lovely chariot. Tấm quickly dressed herself and the chariot swiftly rode to the palace doors. Unknowingly, she dropped a single slipper into the river.

The slipper flowed along the river and made its way to the palace. One of the servants found it and took it to the king. Instantly taken by its marvel and beauty, the king proclaimed that any maiden in the celebration who can slip her foot perfectly into the slipper will be made his bride. All of the ladies hoped they would fit into the slippers, including Cám, but none of them succeeded. Then a woman in a beautiful silk dress appeared before the king, wearing a single slipper matching to that of the one in the king’s hand. When the king placed the other slipper in her foot, it perfectly matched her. The king knew he just found his queen. On that very night, the king married Tấm and a celebration was held for her honour.

The End, and they lived happily ever after.
