One day, he had an idea. He grew a very huge pumpkin. When the pumpkin was big enough, he plucked it and carved out the pumpkin flesh. He also carved small windows on the pumpkin. Then he put a small present in the pumpkin and told his wife to get it.

The wife quickly got inside the pumpkin. The farmer quickly sealed the pumpkin and kept her there. The wife was so angry that she screamed and shouted. But she could not get out from the pumpkin.
