a wish," said the fairy. Then Fred said, "Thank you! We're very healthy and happy."
"Though (尽管) we're old, we still work on the farm every day," said Doris.
"You work very hard but make very little money. Would you like some gold?" asked the
fairy. "Oh no, my dear fairy. We're poor, but we have enough food to eat," said Fred.
"You can use the gold to buy some clothes," said the fairy. "We got enough clothes,"
said Doris.
"What about a nice, new house?" asked the fairy. "Thanks. But I love my small and old
house very much. It's warm and nice. I don't need a new one," said Fred.
"You're quite different from other people. I like you very much," said the fairy. "I wish
you a happy life."
