bought the shoes for a good price and said:”these are very fine shoes, every stitch is perfect.” The shoemaker and his wife bought food and more leather to make other pairs of shoe. The shoemaker repeated the same process that night too. The next day, he found new pair of shoes was perfectly made. This happened night after night which led to the flourishing of the man’s business. One night, he and his wife hid and saw two elves came into the shop and sewed the pairs of shoe as usual. The wife whispered:”these elves had made us rich, I will make gifts for them.” The wife indeed sewed clothes for the two elves. The following night, the man and his wife put the tiny shirts and pants as well as tiny hats and shoes on the worktable. After that, they hid to watch the elves sneaking in the shop and wore the new clothes. “Now we are fine and neat why repair more for others’ feet?” They sang and danced. The two magical creatures did not come back again. The shoemaker and his wife were never hungry again as they lived happily ever after.
