Bawang Putih was not a greedy girl. So she took the small one. After thanking the old woman, Bawang Putih then went home. When she arrived home, her step mother and Bawang Merah were angry. They had been waiting for her all day long. Bawang Putih then told about the clothes, the old woman, and the pumpkin. Her mother was really angry so she grabbed the pumpkin and smashed it to the floor. Suddenly they all were surprised. Inside the pumpkin they found jewelries. "Bawang Merah, hurry up. Go to the river and throw my clothes into the water. After that, find the old woman. Remember, you have to take the big pumpkin," the step mother asked Bawang Merah to do exactly the same as Bawang Putih's experience. Bawang Merah immediately went to the river. She threw the clothes and pretended to search them. Not long after that, she met the old woman. Again she asked Bawang Merah to do household chores. She refused and asked the old woman to give her a big pumpkin. The old woman then gave her the big one. Bawang Merah was so happy. She ran very fast. When she arrived home, her mother was impatient. She directly smashed the pumpkin to the floor. They were screaming. There were a lot of snakes inside the pumpkin! They were really scared. They were afraid the snakes would bite them. "Mom, I think God just punished us. We had done bad things to Bawang Putih. And God didn't like that. We have to apologize to Bawang Putih," said Bawang Merah.

Bawang Putih bukanlah gadis yang rakus. Jadi dia mengambil yang kecil. Setelah berterima kasih kepada wanita tua itu, Bawang Putih kemudian pulang. Sesampainya di rumah, ibu tirinya dan Bawang Merah marah. Mereka telah menunggunya sepanjang hari. Bawang Putih kemudian menceritakan tentang pakaian, wanita tua, dan labu. Ibunya sangat marah sehingga dia mengambil labu dan menghancurkannya ke lantai. Sontak mereka semua terkejut. Di dalam labu mereka menemukan perhiasan. "Bawang Merah, cepatlah. Pergi ke sungai dan buang pakaianku ke dalam air. Setelah itu, temukan wanita tua itu. Ingat, kamu harus mengambil labu besar," ibu tiri meminta Bawang Merah melakukan hal yang sama seperti Pengalaman Bawang Putih. Bawang Merah segera pergi ke sungai. Dia melemparkan pakaian itu dan berpura-pura menggeledahnya. Tidak lama setelah itu, dia bertemu dengan wanita tua itu. Sekali lagi dia meminta Bawang Merah untuk melakukan pekerjaan rumah tangga. Dia menolak dan meminta wanita tua itu untuk memberinya labu besar. Wanita tua itu kemudian memberinya yang besar. Bawang Merah sangat senang. Dia berlari sangat cepat. Sesampainya di rumah, ibunya sudah tidak sabar. Dia langsung menghancurkan labu ke lantai. Mereka berteriak. Ada banyak ular di dalam labu! Mereka benar-benar ketakutan. Mereka takut ular akan menggigit mereka. "Bu, saya pikir Tuhan hanya menghukum kami. Kami telah melakukan hal-hal buruk pada Bawang Putih. Dan Tuhan tidak suka itu. Kami harus meminta maaf kepada Bawang Putih," kata Bawang Merah.
