Once when he got in the river, the farmer immediately threw the hook. While waiting for the hook to be eaten by fish, the farmer prayed, "Oh God, I hope I get a lot of fish today". Moments after praying, the hook he threw out seemed to be wobbling. He immediately pulled the hook. The farmer was very happy, because the fish he got were very large and very beautiful.

After a while looking at the fish he caught, the farmer was very surprised. It turned out that the fish he caught could speak. "Please don't eat it, sir !! Let me live, "shouted the fish. Without a lot of Tanya, the fish caught immediately returned to the water again. After returning the fish to the water, the farmer grew surprised, because suddenly the fish turned into a very beautiful woman.

"Don't be afraid, sir, I won't hurt you," said the fish. "Who are you? Aren't you a fish? Asked the farmer. "I am a daughter who is cursed, for violating royal rules", answered the woman. "Thank you for freeing me from the curse, and in return I am willing to make you wife," said the woman. Even that farmer agrees. So be them as husband and wife. However, there was one promise that had been agreed upon, namely that they should not tell about the origin of the Princess of a fish. If the promise is broken, then a great disaster will occur.
