On one day live garlic, onion, and garlic stepmother.

But since garlic

father died, It was Bawang Putih who did all the works in the house.
His mother and Bawang Merah treating garlic as a maid.s

One day, the garlic went to the river to wash clothes onion and
stepmother. However, their clothes was washed away by the river,
being afraid that his mother cloth could not be found, Bawang Putih
kept looking and walked along the river with its strong current.

Every time she saw someone by the river, she always asked him or
her about her mother's cloth which was washed away by the river,
but everyone didn't know where the cloth was. Eventually Bawang
Putih came to a place where the river flowed into a cave. Surprisingly,
there was a very old man in the cave. Bawang Putih asked the old
man if he knew of the cloth whereabouts. The man knew where the
cloth was, but he made a condition before he handed it to Bawang
Putih.

Bawang putih : “Excuse me sir, do you see any clothes washed by the
river?”

Old man : “ yes, is this it?”

Bawang putih : “Yes, can I have it, please?”

Old Man : “Yes, but you have to work for me all the week.”
The condition was that he had to work assisting the old man for one
week.Bawang Putih was used to working hard so that his work
pleased the old man.

It was late afternoon and Bawang Putih was saying goodbye to the
old man. The man handed the cloth to him. because of his kindness,
the old man offered him a gift of pumpkins. There were two of them,
one was larger than the other. Bawang Putih was asked to choose the
gift he wanted.

Old man : “This is your clothes”

Bawang Putih : “yes, Thank you sir!”
Old man : “wait kid, before you go, you have to choose one of this
pumpkins”

he wasn't greedy, there he chose the smaller one.

Returning home, the Step-Mother and Bawang Merah were furious

because Bawang Putih was late. He told them what happened from
the time his mother's cloth was washed away until her encounter
with the old man in the cave. His step-mother was still furious
because he was already late and only brought one small pumkin, so
the mother smashed the pumpkin to the ground. "Whack..." and the
pumpkin was broken, but it was miraculous that in the
pumpkin there were beautiful golden, jewel, and diamond
ornaments.
Step-mother : “Oh my god we’re RICH!!! We’re so rich that Bill Gates
is gonna be our maid!”

The Widow and Bawang Merah were very shocked. They could get
very rich with that much jewelry. But greedy they were, they yelled at
Bawang Putih asking why he didn't take the large pumkin instead.

Step-mother : “Why didn’t you take the larger one?”

In the Widow and Bawang Merah's minds, if the larger pumpkin was
taken, they should get much more jewelry.

Fulfilling their greed, Bawang Merah folowed the steps told by

Bawang Putih. He wilingly drifted his mother's cloth, walked along
the river, asked people and eventually came to the cave where the
old woman lived. Unlike Bawang Putih, however, bawang Merah
refused the old man's order to work and he even arrogantly ordered
the old man to give him the larger pumpkin. And so the old man gave
it to Bawang Merah.

Bawang Merah happily brought the pumpkin that the old man gave,
while imagining how much jewelry they would get. Returning home,
the Widow welcomed his beloved son. Not waiting for long, the
pumpkin was smashed to the ground, "whack ..." but instead of the
jewelry, appeared various terrifying snakes. The snakes strikes
bawang merah and the widow to death.
