English Summary:
A miller with no heirs promises his mill to the apprentice who brings him the best horse. The youngest apprentice, Hans, is mocked by the others and abandoned in the forest. There, he meets a talking cat who offers him a deal: if he serves her for seven years, she will reward him with a magnificent horse.
Hans works for the cat in an enchanted house, using silver tools to complete tasks. After seven years, she sends him home, still in his ragged clothes, promising to bring his horse in three days. His fellow apprentices, who return with weak horses, mock him.
On the third day, a grand carriage arrives, carrying the cat—now revealed as a princess. She dresses Hans in fine clothes and presents him with a splendid horse. She then reveals a castle he unknowingly built and marries him, making him wealthy and proving that even the "foolish" can rise to greatness.

漢斯在魔法屋中勞動，使用銀製工具完成各種工作。七年後，貓讓他回家，承諾三天後送來他的馬。漢斯衣衫襤褸地回到磨坊，被帶回虛弱馬匹的同伴恥笑。
