称    心    如    意    的    汉    斯   

 汉    斯    给    他    的    雇    主    做    了    七    年    的    工   ， 这    会    儿    他    对    雇    主    说   ：" 主    人   ， 我    的    工    作    期    限    到    了   ， 现    在    我    想    回    家    探    望    母    亲   ， 请    您    把    工    资    付    给    我    吧   。" 雇    主    说   ：" 你    很    忠    诚   ， 干    得    也    挺    不    错   ， 根    据    你    的    表    现   ， 我    将    付    给    你    一    笔    可    观    的    佣    金   。" 于    是   ， 他    给    了    汉    斯    一    大    块    金    子   ， 那    块    金    子    有    汉    斯    的    脑    袋    那    么    大   ， 挺    沉    挺    沉    的   。

 汉    斯    掏    出    毛    巾    将    金    子    包    起    来   ， 扛    在    肩    上   ， 慢    慢    地    上    了    回    家    的    路   。 他    拖    动    着    脚    一    步    一    步    地    走   ， 显    得    非    常    吃    力   。 走    着    走    着   ， 迎    面    跑    过    来    一    匹    神    骏    非    凡    的    马   ， 望    着    坐    在    马    上    的    人   ， 汉    斯    禁    不    住    大    声    赞    叹    道   ：" 啊    哈   ！ 骑    在    马    上    可    真    是    一    件    轻    松    欢    快    的    事    情   ， 瞧    他    坐    在    上    面    就    像    是    坐    在    家    里    的    椅    子    上   ， 既    能    安    安    稳    稳    舒    舒    服    服    地    走    路   ， 又    不    担    心    跘    着    石    头   ， 连    鞋    子    也    不    会    磨    损   ， 不    知    不    觉    地    就    向    前    走    了    好    远    好    远    的    路   。" 马    上    的    人    听    到    他    说    的    话   ， 便    勒    住    马   ， 问    道   ：" 喂   ， 汉    斯   ， 你    为    什    么    步    行    呢   ？" 汉    斯    答    道   ：" 唉   ！ 我    带    着    这    个    劳    什    子   ， 尽    管    它    是    一    块    金    子   ， 但    压    得    我    连    头    也    抬    不    起    来   ， 肩    膀    也    痛    得    厉    害   。" 听    到    这    话   ， 骑    马    的    人    眼    珠    一    转   ， 说    道   ：" 你    看    我    们    换    一    换    行    吗   ？ 我    把    马    给    你   ， 你    把    金    子    给    我   。" 汉    斯    连    忙    道   ：" 正    合    我    的    心    意   ， 不    过    我    得    告    诉    你    这    样    一    个    事    实   -- 你    一    个    人    扛    着    它    是    很    吃    力    的    哟   ！" 骑    马    人    马    上    跳    下    马    来   ， 接    过    汉    斯    的    金    子   ， 又    帮    助    他    骑    上    马   ， 然    后    把    缰    绳    递    到    他    的    手    里   ， 说    道   ：" 要    是    你    想    跑    快    一    点   ， 只    要    咂    着    嘴    喊    两    声   ' 喔    驾   ， 喔    驾   ' 就    行    了   。"

 汉    斯    骑    在    马    上   ， 一    付    心    满    意    足    的    样    子   ， 走    了    一    会    儿   ， 他    嫌    马    走    得    太    慢    了   ， 想    让    它    快    一    点   ， 于    是   ， 咂    着    嘴    喊    道   ：" 喔    驾   ， 喔    驾   ！" 那    马    立    即    放    开    四    蹄   ， 全    速    奔    驰    起    来   。 说    时    迟   ， 那    时    快   ， 汉    斯    一    个    不    留    意   ， 咚    的    一    声    从    马    上    摔    了    下    来   ， 滚    进    了    路    边    的    一    条    泥    沟    里   。

 正    在    这    时   ， 一    个    农    夫    赶    着    一    头    母    牛    从    旁    边    经    过   ， 看    到    了    这    情    况   ， 眼    急    手    快    地    将    汉    斯    的    马    拦    住    了   ， 好    不    容    易    才    没    有    让    那    马    跑    掉   。 汉    斯    慢    慢    地    从    沟    里    爬    起    来   ， 心    里    非    常    恼    火   ， 对    那    农    夫    说    道   ：" 骑    了    这    样    一    匹    马   ， 真    令    人    扫    兴   ， 它    腿    一    蹬   ， 就    把    我    给    掀    了    下    来   ， 连    脖    子    似    乎    也    摔    断    了   ， 我    可    不    想    再    骑    它    了   。 我    真    喜    欢    你    这    头    母    牛   ， 你    能    一    个    人    赶    着    它   ， 悠    闲    地    走    在    它    的    后    面   。 而    且   ， 每    天    都    能    挤    到    牛    奶   ， 还    能    加    工    得    到    奶    油    和    干    酪   ， 要    是    我    有    这    样    一    头    母    牛    就    好    啦   ！" 那    农    夫    马    上    应    声    道   ：" 那    好   ， 如    果    你    真    喜    欢    这    头    牛   ， 我    愿    意    用    我    的    这    头    牛    换    你    这    匹    马   。" 汉    斯    立    即    兴    奋    地    说    道   ：" 行   ！" 听    到    这    句    话   ， 农    夫    翻    身    跳    上    马   ， 急    忙    策    马    而    去   。

 汉    斯    不    慌    不    忙    地    赶    着    牛   ， 边    走    边    想   ， 觉    得    这    笔    交    易    真    是    太    合    算    了   。 现    在    我    只    要    有    一    快    面    包   -- 我    想    肯    定    会    有    的   -- 每    当    我    高    兴    的    时    候   ， 我    就    能    吃    到    奶    油    面    包    加    干    酪    了   ， 当    我    口    渴    的    时    候   ， 还    可    以    挤    牛    奶    喝   ， 有    了    这    样    称    心    如    意    的    事   ， 我    还    要    什    么    其    它    的    东    西    呢   ？" 走    着    走    着   ， 来    到    了    一    家    小    客    栈   。 他    停    了    下    来   ， 心    情    一    高    兴   ， 竟    将    自    己    带    的    面    包    全    吃    光    了   ， 口    袋    里    仅    有    的    几    个    便    士    也    买    了    一    杯    啤    酒    喝   。 酒    足    饭    饱    之    后   ， 他    赶    着    母    牛    向    他    母    亲    住    的    村    庄    走    去   。

 随    着    中    午    的    到    来   ， 天    气    变    得    越    来    越    热   。 此    刻   ， 他    正    在    一    片    空    旷    的    荒    野    上   ， 这    荒    野    是    那    么    大   ， 走    过    它    得    花    一    个    来    小    时   ， 而    汉    斯    已    开    始    觉    得    口    干    舌    燥   ， 酷    热    难    当   。" 我    可    得    想    办    法    来    对    付    这    又    热    又    渴    的    鬼    天    气   ，" 他    想   ，" 对    了   ！ 现    在    我    可    以    挤    牛    奶    解    渴    嘛   。" 于    是   ， 他    将    母    牛    拴    在    一    棵    枯    树    上   ， 没    有    奶    桶    就    用    皮    帽    子    来    接    奶   ， 他    那    笨    手    笨    脚    的    挤    奶    方    法   ， 不    仅    没    有    挤    出    一    滴    奶   ， 反    而    把    牛    给    挤    痛    了   ， 牛    忍    不    住    抬    腿    一    脚   。 真    倒    霉   ， 这    一    脚    正    好    踢    在    汉    斯    的    头    上   ， 将    他    踢    翻    在    地    上    昏    了    过    去   ， 很    久    都    没    有    醒    来   。 幸    运    的    是    不    久    便    来    了    一    个    屠    夫   ， 用    车    子    推    了    一    头    猪    从    旁    边    经    过   ， 看    到    这    情    况   ， 停    下    来    把    汉    斯    扶    了    起    来   ， 问    道   ：" 你    这    是    怎    么    了   ？" 汉    斯    把    刚    才    发    生    的    一    切    告    诉    了    他   ， 屠    夫    便    把    自    己    的    酒    递    给    了    他   ， 说    道   ：" 喝    点    酒   ， 提    提    神    吧   ， 你    的    牛    之    所    以    挤    不    出    奶   ， 是    因    为    它    是    一    头    老    牛   ， 除    了    将    它    送    往    屠    宰    场   ， 看    样    子    别    无    它    用    了   。"" 哎    呀   ， 真    是    的   ，" 汉    斯    叹    道   ，" 谁    想    到    会    是    这    样    呢   ？ 我    要    是    把    它    给    杀    了   ， 有    什    么    用    呢   ？ 我    又    不    喜    欢    吃    牛    肉   ， 牛    肉    吃    起    来    一    点    也    不    嫩   。 要    是    这    牛    现    在    能    变    成    一    头    猪    的    话   ， 就    有    用    了   ， 猪    肉    味    道    鲜    嫩   ， 还    可    以    做    成    香    肠   。"" 行   ！" 屠    夫    说   ，" 为    了    让    你    满    意   ， 我    就    将    我    的    这    头    猪    换    你    的    牛    吧   ！"" 上    帝    会    因    你    的    善    举    降    福    于    你    的   ！" 汉    斯    说    着    将    牛    给    了    屠    夫   ， 上    前    把    猪    从    车    上    解    了    下    来   ， 将    绳    子    拴    在    了    猪    的    腿    上   ， 带    着    它    又    高    高    兴    兴    地    上    路    了   。

 汉    斯    慢    慢    悠    悠    地    边    走    边    想   ， 今    天    所    有    的    事    都    很    称    心    如    意   ， 尽    管    遇    到    了    一    些    不    愉    快    的    事    情   ， 但    每    次    很    快    就    有    了    良    好    的    转    机   。 现    在    他    正    觉    得    心    满    意    足   ， 迎    面    又    来    了    一    位    乡    下    人   ， 这    位    乡    下    人    腋    窝    下    夹    着    一    只    漂    亮    的    白    鹅   。 看    见    汉    斯   ， 他    停    下    来    向    他    打    听    几    点    钟    了   ， 而    汉    斯    却    跟    他    谈    起    了    今    天    的    称    心    事   ， 进    行    了    一    些    什    么    交    易   ， 交    易    中    他    如    何    如    何    占    了    便    宜    等    等   。 乡    下    人    听    了    他    的    话   ， 也    对    他    说    起    他    带    着    这    只    鹅    是    去    参    加    一    个    洗    礼    仪    式    的   ， 并    将    鹅    递    给    汉    斯    说   ：" 你    掂    一    掂   ， 这    鹅    多    重    呀   ， 其    实    它    只    养    了    八    个    星    期   ， 看    它    长    得    多    好   ， 将    它    红    烧    了    吃   ， 还    可    以    烧    出    好    多    的    鹅    油    哩   ！" 汉    斯    接    过    鹅    掂    了    掂    说    道   ：" 这    鹅    的    确    不    错   ， 但    我    的    猪    也    不    赖    呀   ！" 乡    下    人    若    有    所    思    地    四    下    看    了    看   ， 然    后    把    头    一    摇    说   ：" 哎    呀    呀   ！ 我    的    好    朋    友   ， 你    这    头    猪    说    不    定    会    给    你    带    来    麻    烦    的   ， 我    刚    刚    经    过    的    那    个    村    庄   ， 有    个    乡    绅    的    猪    被    人    从    猪    圈    中    给    偷    走    了   ， 我    真    替    你    担    心   ， 因    为    我    开    始    见    到    你    的    时    候    还    以    为    你    这    头    猪    是    那    个    乡    绅    的    呢   。 要    是    你    经    过    那    村    庄    时    给    他    们    抓    住   ， 那    可    不    是    闹    着    完    的    哟   ， 至    少    他    们    也    会    把    你    扔    进    洗    马    池    去   。"

 可    怜    的    汉    斯    听    到    这    话   ， 一    时    被    吓    坏    了   ， 他    大    声    道   ：" 您    真    是    一    个    好    人   ， 请    帮    我    脱    离    这    场    苦    难    吧   。 您    对    这    儿    比    我    熟    悉   ， 您    把    这    头    猪    赶    走   ， 把    您    的    鹅    换    给    我    吧   ！" 乡    下    人    马    上    说   ：" 我    真    不    忍    心    见    你    陷    入    这    种    莫    须    有    的    劫    难    中   ， 看    样    子    我    只    得    和    你    交    换    了   。" 说    完   ， 他    从    汉    斯    手    中    接    过    绳    子   ， 牵    着    猪    从    道    旁    的    小    路    离    去    了   。 汉    斯    也    放    心    大    胆    地    将    鹅    夹    在    腋    下   ， 向    回    家    的    路    走    去   ， 心    里    不    停    地    想    着   ：" 交    易    总    算    做    成    了   ， 真    合    算   。 我    将    有    美    味    的    红    烧    鹅    肉    吃    了   ， 烧    出    来    的    鹅    油    可    吃    上    半    年   ， 还    有    这    洁    白    美    丽    的    鹅    毛   ， 将    它    们    装    进    枕    头    一    定    可    以    安    安    稳    稳    地    睡    个    好    觉   ， 我    母    亲    肯    定    会    高    兴    的   。"

 当    路    过    最    后    一    个    村    庄    时   ， 他    看    见    一    个    磨    刀    的    人    推    着    一    部    小    车   。 他    刚    干    完    活   ， 嘴    里    唱    着   ：

" 翻    山    越    岭    到    处    游   ，

 多    么    快    乐    无    忧    愁   ；

 干    起    活    来    真    轻    松   ，

 生    活    乐    悠    悠   ；

 世    间    任    我    去    和    留   ，

 愉    快    似    我    何    所    求   ？"

 汉    斯    住    脚    看    了    一    会    儿   ， 最    后    开    口    说    道   ：" 磨    刀    师    傅   ， 你    干    得    这    般    愉    快   ， 你    的    活    儿    一    定    充    满    乐    趣   。" 磨    刀    人    答    道   ：" 那    是    当    然   ， 我    的    手    艺    就    和    金    子    一    样   ， 一    个    优    秀    的    磨    刀    人    把    手    伸    到    口    袋    里   ， 随    时    都    能    掏    出    钱    来   ，-- 哟   ！ 你    在    哪    儿    买    的    这    么    漂    亮    的    鹅    呀   ？"" 我    不    是    买    的   ， 是    用    一    头    猪    换    来    的   。"" 那    猪    是    从    哪    儿    买    来    的    呢   ？"" 是    用    一    头    母    牛    换    来    的   。"" 母    牛    呢   ？"" 是    用    一    匹    马    换    来    的   。"" 马    呢   ？"" 是    用    像    我    的    脑    袋    这    么    大    的    一    块    金    子    换    来    的   。"" 金    子    呢   ？"" 唉   ， 那    是    我    七    年    做    工    所    得    的    工    钱   。" 磨    刀    人    接    着    说    道   ：" 看    来    你    一    直    都    很    幸    运   ， 但    你    要    是    随    时    把    手    伸    到    口    袋    里    都    能    掏    出    钱    来   ， 那    才    真    的    是    发    财    交    好    运    了   。" 汉    斯    接    口    说   ：" 对   ， 对   ！ 但    怎    么    能    办    到    呢   ？" 磨    刀    人    回    答    道   ：" 你    必    须    像    我    一    样    当    一    个    磨    刀    人   ， 这    样    的    话   ， 你    只    要    一    块    磨    刀    石    就    成   ， 其    余    的    就    不    用    愁    了   。 我    这    儿    有    一    块    磨    刀    石   ， 只    是    已    经    磨    去    一    部    分   ， 不    过    它    的    价    值    并    不    比    你    这    只    鹅    低   ， 你    想    换    吗   ？" 汉    斯    连    忙    回    答    道   ：" 这    还    用    问    吗   ？ 要    是    把    手    伸    进    口    袋    里    就    能    掏    出    钱    来   ， 那    我    就    是    这    世    上    最    幸    福    的    人    了   ， 我    还    有    什    么    可    求    呢   ？ 这    只    鹅    给    你   。"" 好    吧   ！" 说    着   ， 磨    刀    人    就    地    捡    了    一    块    粗    糙    的    石    头    递    给    汉    斯   ，" 这    是    一    块    最    好    的    石    头   ， 你    可    得    好    好    地    保    管   ， 用    它    你    能    把    一    颗    旧    钉    子    磨    掉   。"

 汉    斯    带    着    这    块    石    头   ， 怀    着    兴    奋    的    心    情    离    开    了   。 他    眼    里    闪    烁    着    喜    悦    的    光    芒   ， 自    言    自    语    地    说    道   ：" 我    一    定    是    在    幸    运    时    辰    出    生    的   ， 瞧    我    想    要    办    的    和    所    希    望    的    每    一    件    事    都    能    称    心    如    意    地    得    到    满    足   。"

 因    为    天    一    亮    他    就    上    路    了   ， 走    了    这    么    久   ， 此    刻    已    开    始    疲    倦    了   ， 肚    子    也    饿    得    咕    咕    叫   ， 原    来    带    的    东    西    都    已    吃    完   ， 就    剩    下    的    几    便    士    也    在    换    取    母    牛    后   ， 趁    着    那    股    高    兴    劲    买    了    啤    酒    喝    了   ， 再    加    上    那    块    石    头    背    在    身    上    压    得    够    呛   。 终    于   ， 他    不    再    往    前    走    了   ， 慢    慢    吞    吞    地    走    到    了    一    个    池    塘    边   ， 想    在    这    儿    喝    点    水   ， 休    息    一    会    儿   。 他    小    心    翼    翼    地    将    那    块    石    头    放    在    池    塘    岸    边    靠    近    自    己    的    地    方   ， 但    就    在    他    俯    下    身    子    去    喝    水    的    时    候   ， 一    不    留    神   ， 轻    轻    地    碰    了    那    块    石    头    一    下   ， 石    头    扑    嗵    一    下    子    就    滚    到    池    塘    里    去    了   ， 汉    斯    眼    睁    睁    地    看    着    那    石    头    向    水    面    深    处    沉    没    下    去   ， 他    竟    高    兴    得    跳    了    起    来   。 随    即    又    跪    在    地    上   ， 眼    中    闪    烁    着    泪    花   ， 感    谢    上    帝    慈    悲    为    怀   ， 使    他    免    去    了    继    续    遭    受    那    块    讨    厌    而    又    沉    重    石    头    的    折    磨   。" 我    多    么    幸    运    啊   ！" 他    叫    了    起    来   ，" 谁    也    没    有    我    这    么    幸    运    了   。" 怀    着    轻    松    高    兴    的    心    情   ， 他    起    身    又    上    路    了   。 他    就    这    样    无    牵    无    挂   ， 无    忧    无    虑    地    回    到    了    母    亲    的    身    旁   ， 回    到    了    他    早    已    渴    望    回    到    的    家   。
