The Talking Eggs: A Folktale from the American South by Robert D. San Souci

A version of the kind and unkind girls from Louisanna, with the sweet and kind Blanche and the spoiled Rose. It starts out with Blanche giving an old woman a drink at a well, but then her mother and sister throw her out for being slow, and she stays at the old woman's very strange place, and it's that that Rose tries to emulate.
