The soldiers were passing by and stopped at the old woman's to rest. They asked for something to drink and eat, and the old woman responded:

Children, what am I going to treat you with? I have nothing.

And in her oven there was a boiled rooster in a pot, under a frying pan. The soldiers understood this matter; one was a thief! - went out into the yard, pulled apart the cart with sheaves, returned to the hut and said:

Grandma, oh grandma! Look, the cattle are eating your bread.

The old woman went into the yard, and in the meantime the soldiers looked into the oven, took the rooster out of the pot, put a piece of it in its place, and hid the rooster in the bag. An old woman came:

Little children, dear ones! Weren't you the one who let the cattle in? Why are you doing dirty tricks, kids? No need, darlings!

The soldiers were silent and silent and asked again:

Give us something to eat, grandma!

Take some kvass and some bread, kids; it will be yours!

And the old woman decided to boast that she had led them through, and asked them a riddle:

Well, kids, you are experienced people, you’ve seen everything; Tell me, is Kurukhan Kurukhanovich still alive today in Penskoye, Cherepensky, near Skovorodny?

No, grandma!

And who, kids, will take his place?

Yes Lipan Lipanovich.

Where is Kurukhan Kurukhanovich?

Yes, the city has been transferred to Sumin, grandma.

After that the soldiers left. A son comes from the field, asks the old woman for food, and she tells him:

Come on, son! I had soldiers and asked for a snack, and I, child, told them a riddle about the rooster that was in my oven; they were unable to guess something.

What kind of riddle did you tell them, mother?

And here’s what: in Penskoye, Cherepensky, near Skovorodny, is Kurukhan Kurukhanovich alive? They didn't turn away. “No,” they say, “grandmother!” - “Where is he, my dears?” - “Yes, the city was transferred to Sumin.” And they don’t even know what I have in the pot!

I looked into the oven, and the rooster flew away; I just pulled out the bast shoe.

Wow, child, the damned ones deceived me!

That's it, mother! You can't fool a soldier, he is an experienced man.

Soldier's riddle (tale version 2)

Once upon a time there lived a woman who had three sons. They got up early, went to the field, shot a crane, and brought it to their mother: “Brew it, mother, for dinner!” And we ourselves went to mow hay. At that time, soldiers came to the woman - traveling people; She poured them cabbage soup and said: “I’ll tell you a riddle.” - “Which one, grandma?” - “Doseleva Kurlinskaya-Murlinskaya flew near Nebesinsk, and in recent years he ended up in the city of Pechinsky, in the village of Gorshinsky.” Even though the soldiers realized a long time ago what the cabbage soup smelled like, they pretended that they didn’t guess anything. “Think, dear ones, but I’m going to the cellar for milk.”

While the old woman was going to the cellar, the soldiers stole her crane. “Well, have you guessed the riddle?” - asks the old woman. “No, grandmother, they didn’t guess yours, but they guessed theirs: before the village, Kurlinskoy-Murlinskaya flew near Nebesinsk and ended up in the city of Pechinskaya, and in these years he found himself in the city of Suminsky, in the village of Zaplechinsky. Guess it, God's old lady! - “No, dear ones! Your riddle is longer than mine, I can’t solve it...”

Soldier's riddle (tale version 3)

The old woman cooked a goose in cabbage soup. A soldier comes to her apartment... “What, soldier,” asks the old woman, “have you been to the city of Gorshansk, have you known Gagatey Gagateevich there?” - “How can you not know! Only now he is not there: Gagatey Gagateevich went from there to the city of Koshelyansk, to the village of Zaplechanskoye, and in his place Pletukhan Pletukhanovich, son of Kovyryalkin, came to the city of Gorshansk.” Then the collection hit; the soldier said goodbye to the old woman and went on a hike. He’s walking with his comrades, and lo and behold, there’s a tooth from a harrow lying on the road; He picked it up and put it in his pocket.

We came to another village. Our soldier ended up going back to the stupid woman's apartment. I sat down to dinner, took out a tooth that I found on the way, and, well, stir the cabbage soup. The hostess hands him a salt shaker: “Here, salt it, servant!” - “I don’t need your salt! I’ll interfere with this tooth - I sprinkled salt on everything!” (And he had long since salted the cabbage soup with his own salt). “Look, what a miracle,” the hostess thinks, “with such goodness, you don’t even need to buy salt!” We tried cabbage soup - how to eat saltines! “Will you sell the tooth?” - “Buy.” - “What will you take?” - “A ruble of silver and twenty arshins of canvas.” That's how we got along. “Here’s your tooth,” says the soldier, “when you start stirring the cabbage soup, say: shun-bun, be salty cabbage soup!” My husband will come and there will be flip-flops.” He took a ruble of money and a piece of canvas and went where he needed to go.
