Once upon a time there lived a childless old couple. The old man is in a bad mood. He always scolded his wife for not giving birth to children. One autumn, the old woman's palm itched when the old man went on a trip. The woman scratched the palm of her hand and a frog came out from under it. After seeing the frog, she said, "The frog will be my offspring" and sewed a Swaddle and took care of it like a child....

After a few months, the old man returned from his trip, the old man got very angry when he saw the frog with Swaddle:

- Evil sin...... Why are you doing such a bad thing? said and tried to kill the frog, but the woman said,

- Then you know. we tried to have children,this will be our children.

the old man cried saying that he would kill the frog even when he was blessed with children.

- Father, if you want to kill me, beat me to death. He said that otherwise I would not have died. The old man made the frog angry and tried to hit him, but he dodged his anger and came out. When I did it again, it came out as a dodge and it didn't work. The old man saw him and laughed :

- He told me not to stop killing this bad luck and did not kill him. When the old man went to plant crops in spring, the frog

"Father, I will go and plant crops," said the old man.

- Planting your grandfather's crops. If you used to plant crops, why should I suffer so much?

Old women said:

- Isn't it good when the child wants to work? He said let's go and let the frog boy sit on the ears of his black donkey that plows the ground. Then the frog boy rode the donkey and sent it back and forth, planting crops well and helping the old man a lot.

It's been three years. One day, frog boy:

- Father, mother? There is a family with a beautiful daughter in this north. I will take that girl as my wife. You asked me to get engaged, old man:

- Total sin. If you were to get a wife, why do we struggle? I didn't give a single coin because I was nervous that I wouldn't be fooled. Inevitably,

- Let it be. If you don't mind, I will. Anyway, saying that it was my boy, he took out the five lakh money he had and put it in a robe and gave it to his frog son. When the frog boy reached the house, the family dog started barking. The old man came out and said,

- The old woman said that the family's black donkey had come outside and was standing.

- The frog boy from that empty family is coming sitting on the ears of his black donkey, the old man said:

- The old woman said to chase away the ugly animal.

- Saying that you can't chase him, he helped the frog boy and brought him home.

The frog boy entered the house and told the reason, but the old woman sat silent. But the old man was very angry,

- A witch like you will take my daughter. When a frog attacks you to kill you,

- If you want to kill me, you can. But put me in the pit of the mill. Otherwise, I will not die. As the old frog boy said, he put it in the hole of the mill and tried to hit it, but the frog came out to avoid it and did not give him a chance to hit it hard. Seeing her, the people of the family laughed until their hearts froze, and the old man said to his daughter:

- Bad girl, if you like to follow, follow quickly, he said and sent his daughter with the frog boy.

The frog boy put the girl on his black donkey and on the way home he found a nice flat tree and told the girl,

- Well, you sleep on it. I said that I will come home, and then I gave him my robe and put him on a pillow.

When the girl woke up, a beautiful house with five walls had been built on a flat tree, and five heads of cattle were grazing around it. The girl went to the side of the house to look at it. She hesitated for a while and said, "It's not the devil's house, isn't it?" Then she said, "Well, whatever happens." When he went and looked at the door, he saw that the house was full of furniture, and the frog boy had turned into a tall white man and was walking back and forth. The girl ran into the house and hugged the boy.

- Was my husband such a nice person? said, the young man smiled,

- Now all this is ours, he said to his wife, he discussed the wedding plans, and decided to have a wedding with twenty servants, eighty attendants, and invite a large number of people.

When the frog boy and his wife wanted to invite their parents to their wedding and drink tea in their new house, the father said,

- I didn't go because I didn't want to go. The mother,

- When my poor family was getting married, the frog went to his son's new house and drank the tea.

In the spring of that year, before the universe warmed up, suddenly a dragon sounded and it rained and rainbows came down. The frog boy and his wife took his mother and sat on the rainbow and went to live in the sky. It is said that the old man with bad intentions stayed there and planted crops all his life. Because the frog boy was a mollusk and was destined to be a son to a well-intentioned woman. Turtle Boy's new home tea was a spring, and anyone who drank it was destined to become a talisman and live in heaven. Therefore, Mongolians call their children "H."
