“Shiro’s precious mortar has turned into ash!”
The honest old man said sadly.He gathered the ash and scattered it on Shiro’s grave.
But as he did so, flowers began to bloom out of nowhere!
Delighted, the old man climbed on top of a tree. “Flower bloomer grandpa! Flower bloomer grandpa!” he sang while scattering the ash.
“Let flowers bloom on bare trees!”Dozens and dozens of peach and cherry blossom flowers began to bloom.
Just then, the king came upon the honest old man and his flowers.
“This is splendid!” The king praised the honest old man.
