Long live the king

It's the day of the cake of the kings. Whoever finds beans inside the cake becomes king!
– I'll make two cakes! – says the pig daddy – So there will be two kings.
– And two queens! - Says Ivan - If I found a broad bean, I would choose Mom as queen.
Daddy Pig is a good cook, but also very clumsy… Hmm! The smell in the kitchen is good; the cakes are well baked and golden…
Croc! Croc! All piggies want to be kings!

- Oh no! - mumbles Ivan - Nobody found the bean ...
Daddy pig understood; he put all the beans in the same cake!
'It comes from the second cake,' he says, annoyed, 'but watch your teeth, children!
Ivan found a broad bean!
What a handsome king! He quickly walks up to Mom, puts a crown on her head, and then kisses her.
– She is the most beautiful queen of the pigs!
