Which choice provides a summary of the passage?

While doing chores, Roisin got distracted and accidentally burned the family pot. She planned to use her wedding savings to fix it, but on her way to the tinker, she discovered a leprechaun in danger. After rescuing him, she found a clever way to have the money for her wedding and have a useful pot for her family.

Roisin was excited to marry the love of her life. However, when she burned the family pot, she worried that she would not be able to get married after all. Fortunately, she met a leprechaun who generously gave her his pot, which made her very happy.

Roisin burned the only pot her family had, so she hoped to find a tinker in the village to fix it. On her way to the village, she discovered a leprechaun being followed by a fox, but she was able to save the leprechaun by chasing away the fox. This made the leprechaun so happy that he gave Roisin his pot.

While boiling a pot of water for dinner, Roisin was thinking about her wedding plans and completely forgot about the pot. The pot burned and broke into pieces, and it could not be fixed. Roisin eventually found a leprechaun in the woods, and he offered his pot as a gift.
