Lesson 269

3) Mrs Miller and her little garden Mrs Miller had a small garden behind the house, where she planted some vegetables in spring. She looked after it carefully, and when summer came, it looked very beautiful. One evening Mrs Miller looked at the vegetables and decided to harvest them the next day and that the family could eat them then. But the next morning, her son ran into the kitchen shouting: "Mother, come quickly! Our neighbour’s ducks are in the garden and eating away our vegetables!" Mrs. Miller ran out, but it was too late. All the vegetables were gone. Mrs. Miller cried bitterly, and her neighbour was very sorry, but that was the end of the vegetables. Then a few days before Christmas, Mrs Miller’s neighbour brought a package containing a beautiful, fat duck, and a piece of paper saying, "Enjoy your vegetables!"
