It is neither, Lemon.
I spend couple years back there, speak Russian fluently (albeit with an accent), read and write, and that is anything but a classic Russian folktale.
You found some made up english story being peddled as Russian without any reason to believe that it actually is.

A century ago, this retelling of the story was given to a distant relative, Howard Neal, in a little book published by the Saalfield Publishing Company in 1903 (it had been previously published by the Werner Company in 1899). Unfortunately, the the author's name was not included in the book.

Just because someone repeats something they read on internet it still does not make it a fact....
