Có mũi, một ngày, một số nàng tiên quyết định việc cho phép cô có ba đều ao ước. Người nông dân và vợ ông đã nói chuyện một thời gian dài hơn những gì cô ấy nên muốn cho. Nhưng người nông dân và vợ ông đột nhiên trở thành một chút giận dữ, và từ sức mạnh của thói quen, cô nói, "Tôi ước gì tôi có một số xúc xích để ăn".
Ngay lập tức tấm cô trên bàn đầy xúc xích. Sau đó, một cuộc tranh cãi đã bắt đầu vì người chồng nói rằng vợ mình đã lãng phí một trong những lời chúc tốt đẹp của họ về một điều giá rẻ như xúc xích. Đối số tăng nóng hơn, và cuối cùng là vợ giận dữ nói, "Tôi muốn các xúc xích đã được treo từ mũi của bạn". Ngay lập tức xúc xích đã bay đến mũi của chồng và ở lại đó.
Bây giờ, chỉ có một điều người phụ nữ nghèo có thể làm. Cô ấy thực sự yêu chồng, và vì vậy cô đã phải dành điều ước thứ ba của cô loại bỏ xúc xích từ mũi của chồng.
