The Story of the Clever Old Woman and the Pumpkin

(Here, we present the story in a clear, easy-to-read narrative format, incorporating the keywords naturally.)

A brave old woman decided to visit her daughter. On her way through the jungle, she first met a lion and then a wolf, who both wanted to eat her. She cleverly promised them, "Let me visit my daughter and get plump. You can eat me on my way back!"

Her wise daughter came up with a plan. She hollowed out a giant pumpkin, made two eye-holes, and put her mother inside. With a push, she said the magic words, "Chal mere kaddu, tunuk-tunuk!" and the pumpkin rolled away.

On the way back, the lion and wolf were waiting. The clever Budhiya knew she had to trick them. She stepped out and said, "You can eat me, but first, decide who is braver! The one who eats my head is the bravest." Immediately, the lion and wolf began fighting over who was more courageous, allowing the old woman to get back in her pumpkin and roll safely home!
