In the winter, Thumbelina meets a kind old vole, who introduces her to a learned mole that lives underground, and mole wants to marry her. She encounters a swallow in the cave that is about to freeze, and in the spring, the swallow wants to take her away, but she does not want to upset the benefactor vole and does not leave. But she didn't like the mole that always lived underground, and she couldn't change anything. In the autumn, the swallows took her away and went to the south. Here she met a flower elf as tall as she was, a king. She finally found her own happiness.
Love is not always smooth sailing, sometimes hurt by others, sometimes it is inevitable to hurt others, but lucky people will always find the happiness that really belongs to them in the end. Thumbelina is a lucky girl.
2, "Wild Swan", love is not just a matter of two people
Alyssa's 11 older brothers were all turned into wild swans by their stepmothers, and Alyssa had to weave 11 long-sleeved cloaks of armor from thorny nettles to get rid of the magic on the 11 wild swans, and in the process, she couldn't say a word.
"Their lives hang on your tongue." The fairy said.
The king brought the beautiful Alyssa, who was as wild as a child, back to the palace, and he loved her very much, but she could not say anything, but kept weaving the armor in her hands. But the archbishop thought the little girl was a witch and wanted to find evidence, and when Alyssa's nettle ran out, she had to go to the cemetery to pick it, and his incitement finally succeeded, and the king began to suspect Alyssa.
When Alyssa was about to be burned to death, 11 wild swans appeared, and Alyssa threw her armor at her brother, and Alyssa was saved. Hundreds of roses grew on the firewood and bloomed.
Sometimes love is subject to external suffering, and sometimes one party has to endure unspeakable pain. Love is not always a matter of two people.
