Twopence in a Bag

A long time ago there was a old man and an old lady who lived in a village. The old man was good but the old lady was bad. The old man only had a rooster but the old lady had a hen.
Unfortunately, the old man did not have eggs, but the old lady did not want to give him any. So he asked his rooster to give him eggs. 
The rooster left home and found a bag with twopence in it. A rich man stole the bag from the rooster, so the rooster followed him home and drank all the water and ate all the animals in the rich man's courtyard. Finally, the rooster ate all the money in the rich man’s house. Then he went home and gave all the money to the good old man.
