One day the elder brother decided that he would go to the nearby forest to get some wood which he would later sell in the market for some money.
As he went into the forest, he cut down many trees, then while cutting down one tree after another, he stumbled upon a magic tree.
In this the tree said, oh kind sir, please don’t cut my branches. If you leave me then, I will give you a golden apple. He agreed at that time, but greed awakened in his mind. He threatened the tree that if it did not give him more apples, he would cut off the whole trunk.
In such a situation, the magical tree, instead of giving apples to the elder brother, showered hundreds of needles on him. Due to this, the elder brother started crying lying on the ground due to pain.
Now the day started setting slowly, while the younger brother started getting worried. So he went to the forest in search of his elder brother. He found the elder brother lying in pain near that tree, whose body was pierced with hundreds of needles. He felt pity, he reached his brother, slowly removed every needle with love.
The elder brother was watching all these things and he was getting angry with himself. Now the elder brother apologizes to the younger brother for ill-treating him and promises to be better. The tree saw the big brother’s change of heart and gave him all the golden apples he would need later.
