The Three Little Pigs and the Strong House

Once upon a time, there were three little pigs named Rhea Mae, Mirang, and Keishang. Their mother gave them some money and sent them into the woods to build their own houses and survive.

Rhea Mae saw some rice straw and thought it would make a quick and easy house. Keishang found some weak woods and made a house too. But Mirang, the smart pig, gathered rocks and cement to build a strong house.

As the pigs were finishing their houses, a bad wolf named Leslie came to huff and puff. First, he blew down Rhea Mae's weak house made of rice straw.

Then, Leslie went to Keishang's house made of weak woods and huffed and puffed. It didn't take long for the house to fall down with a big crash.

Seeing that he couldn't blow down the strong house, Leslie decided to climb down the chimney. But Mirang, the smart pig, had a plan.

Mirang quickly heated a pot of water and placed it under the chimney. When Leslie climbed down, he fell right into the hot water and ran away, yelping in pain.
