What happened when the wicked old man threw a handful of ashes over the cherry Tree?

Dear Student,
The wicked old man heard the story of cherry trees blossoming with magic ashes. He tried to impress Daimio and repeated the same thing that the kind old man had done earlier. He threw the ashes on the tree when the Daimio was just under it. Suddenly the wind blew the fine particles of ashes into the eyes and nose of Daimio and his wife. They sneezed and coughed out of irritation. It ruined the dignity of the procession they were in. The Daimio was furious of such nuisance and punished the wicked man to death.

Hope this clears your doubts regarding this topic,
