You must have heard of a nancy the
spider
he is a mischief maker a trickster and
the king
of stories and today i will tell you
about one such story
which will make you laugh a little smile
a little
and tell you a little bit more about the
strong
folklore character from the magnificent
land of africa
it was a hot day and as all days had
been for the last couple of months
and nancy was in his house sitting by
the window
bored out of his mind i don't have
anything to do today and this
boredom is beginning to get to me now
what do i do
oh what if i go to grandma's spider's
house
she will definitely have something for
me to do and
she will have something good cooked for
me
and so and nancy set out for grandma
spider's house
when he reached there he knocked on the
door.
Grandma spider it is i
your grandson and nancy she must be so
excited to see me
grab my spider was not excited to see
him
oh dear ever mischievous and nancy
and nancy grandma
so good to see you and nancy greeted her
with a big hug
but grandma was worried that a nancy
would cause some trouble again.
What are you doing here grandma spider
i am bored i thought i'd help the
neighbors with some work
but you know how i always get into
trouble
today is the day that i want to do
nothing with trouble
absolutely nothing and so
i came to you how can i get in trouble
when my grandma is around me
right right oh
i don't know what to say
just tell me what do you need help with
and i will get to it right away all
right
come with me grandma spider took him
to a patch of soil i need some beans to
be planted in the soil
it is a lot but i'm sure you have all
day
oh absolutely it's just that i thought
you'd have
something a little less strenuous
hmm no no i am not saying no to this
oh no i will absolutely do it
be rest assured grandma hmm
all right get to it then
almost forgot i'm making your favorite
spicy beans for supper
and if you do a good job i will let you
have it to your heart's content
spicy beans oh you are the best grandma
and so grandma spider went back inside
the house
and nancy started with the work with a
big
sigh and nancy began to plant the beans into
the soil
but his mind was thinking about the
spicy beans recipe
only an hour had passed and a nancy was
soon.
The tired shine brightly in the sky and
the heat was
beating down upon him oh it's so
hot today i need a glass of water and a
little bit of rest
grandma spider grandma spider i need a
glass of water
sure here have a glass of lemonade
it will refresh you and then you can get
back to the work
this was so refreshing now
i need to go to the market to buy some
spices
do not touch the spicy beans
it is very hot once i come back
you've done the work i will serve you a
full meal
all right understood
don't you worry grandma spider hmm
and so grandma's spider went to the
market while a nancy sat
at the veranda to rest for a bit
i can rest for some time grandma doesn't
have to know
oh the shade the taste of the cool
lemonade the gentle breeze
what a beautiful afternoon
as a nancy relaxed his eyes closed and
soon he had started to doze
meanwhile the pot of spicy beans had
cooked completely
and his delicious aroma glided out of
the house
and towards a nancy.
The mouth-watering smell took a nancy to
a dream
world where he was surrounded by several
pots of spicy beans he jumped in
joy and took a spoonful of the beans in
his mouth when he
suddenly woke up what
it was a dream oh but the aroma
is real i think the spicy beans are
ready
i must go and have a look grandma sure
wouldn't mind that
and nancy chased the aroma and went to
the kitchen
there you are the heavenly spicy beans
let me see how you look
and nancy removed the lid from the pot
and looked at the steaming hot
spicy beans goodness this smells
too good for me to be able to resist its
taste
um i can try a little
grandma doesn't have to know using a
wooden spoon
and nancy scooped the delicious food
and put it into his mouth.
Delicious
i need to have some more nancy thought
for a moment
and then smiled has a bright idea shone
in his mind
he took the hat off his head and filled
it with the boiling beans
yes now i can go to the patch and
pretend to work
and enjoy the beans grandma will never
know
but at that moment there was a knock on
the door
grammar spider turtle and i are here for
supper just like you had
asked us to be oh
no what do i do they can't see me with
the beans
they will tell grandma grandma spider
open up we are hungry i think we should
just open the door and walk in
maybe grandma spider cannot hear us old
age does that
let's go okay oh no oh no oh no what do
i do what do i do what do i do
and then another bright idea shone in
his mind
and nancy put the bean-filled hat upon
his head
it's so hot immediately the beans
started to escape
hot bean juice was now slipping from a
nancy's face
and down the back of his neck and at
that very moment
hippo and turtle also walked in oh and
nancy
what a pleasant surprise.
Hey hello are you here for supper too
that's great oh i love that smell
cannot wait to eat where is grandma
spider
but a nancy had stopped listening and
all he was thinking of
was how to get the hat filled with hot
beans off his head
he began to shake and wriggle as if he
were dancing
what are you doing to nancy
my welcome dance
that is amazing and nancy you are quiet
the dancer turtle
let's join him and dance too no no no no
no no no no no please don't no
oh he sings well too way to go
and nancy but nancy wasn't able to hold
the hot beans in his hat
any longer and threw the hat to the
ground
ow goodness what
what and nancy took a sigh of relief
but the boiling bean juice had destroyed
his hair
and made him completely bald
that very moment he heard the call of
his grandma
a nancy where are you
oh no and nancy did not want to face
grandma's spider
and jumped through the window and ran
into the tall grass to hide
yes that's where he hid himself
and if you look carefully you
might still see him hiding there today
but you will never see him crazy about
beans anymore.
Thank you ❤️❤️
