Jack agreed to this and then sold his cow for magic beans. When Jack got home, his mother was very angry. She called him a fool and reminded him that he had been tricked for mere beans. She took the beans from his hands and threw them outside. Feeling sad, Jack went to sleep without having any dinner.
The following day, when Jack woke up, he was shocked to see a huge beanstalk that had grown outside his home. Curious, he climbed the beanstalk, which then led him to a house in the sky. The house was occupied by a giant and his wife.
