C. The faithful servant wanted to give the Four Winds and the old woman the least he could in return.

Explanation:

The excerpt shows that the faithful servant was very grateful for the favor which the four winds and the old woman had shown to him. He offered to give them some things to show his appreciation, but they apparently declined that.
