Her father goes up against her uncle to battle it out in front of the local judge. The judge decides that whoever can answer his three questions correctly will keep the cow. Eva's father wins, but really it was Eva who came up with the answers. When the judge hears about the clever young girl, he asks her to marry him. But he soon discovers there's more to having a clever wife than he bargained for...Ever Clever Eva is a contemporary retelling of a classic Czech tale.
