Brother and Sister

A brother and sister were walking along a country road, approaching a village.

The brother said:
— I’ll buy some milk here.

And the sister replied:
— And I’ll crumble some bread into the milk!

The brother grabbed his sister by her braid and started tugging at it, saying:
— Don’t crumble bread into the milk, or it’ll go sour! Don’t crumble bread into the milk, or it’ll go sour!

They arrived in the village, but no one sold them any milk.
