The poor farmer and the rich man’s son both got gifts. The poor farmer received a beautiful apple and he was grateful for the gift that god gave him.
After he got his gift, he showed it to the people in the village and then showed it to the king and he wanted the king to have it without getting anything back but the king noticed how generous the farmer was and gave him his best horse to the poor farmer.
