The Christmas story will be continued. I'll tell you a legend about Christmas socks.
 
    Long long ago, there was a very kind noble. His wife died because of disease, and left him and his three daughters. 这个贵族后来破产了，所以他们不得不搬到一家农舍里生活，他的女儿们也只得亲自烧煮、缝纫和打扫。一晃几年过去，女儿们陆续到了出嫁的年龄，父亲却变得更加沮丧，因为他没钱给女儿们买嫁妆。一天晚上，女儿们洗完衣服后将长统袜挂在壁炉前烘干。圣人Nicholas知道了她们父亲的境况后，就在那天晚上，来到她们的家门前。From the window, he saw the family were asleep, and noticed the girls' stocks. 随即，他从口袋里掏出三小包黄金从烟囱上一个个投下去，刚好掉在女孩们的长筒袜里。

    The next morning, the girls found that their stocks were filled with gold. The gold was enough for their marriage. 这个贵族也因此能亲眼看到他的女儿们结婚，从此便过上了幸福快乐的生活。
    后来，世界各地的孩子们都在圣诞节将圣诞袜挂起来，期盼圣诞礼物的降临。
