Problem description:

A long time ago, an old mouse couple lived in a wet and cold black hole and watched their beautiful daughter grow up day by day. The couple promised to find the best in-law for their daughter and let her get rid of this dark life. So, the mouse couple went out to find relatives. As soon as I went out, I saw the majestic sun in the sky. They are thinking that the sun is the most powerful in the world, and any dark ghost is afraid of sunlight. When a daughter marries the sun, isn't she marrying the light? The sun listened to the request of the mouse couple, frowned and said, "Dear old man, I am not as strong as you think.". Dark clouds can block my light. " The mouse couple was speechless. So, I went to find the dark clouds and asked them to marry me. Wuyun replied with a wry smile: "Although I have the power to block the light, it only takes a breeze to make me' clear the clouds'." The mouse and his wife thought about it and found the wind to suppress the dark clouds. The wind said with a smile, "I can blow away the dark clouds, but only one wall can subdue me!" " "The mouse couple found the wall again. When the wall saw them, it showed a scared expression: "In this world, I am most afraid of you mice. No matter how strong the wall is, it can't resist the mouse hole and eventually collapse. " The mouse couple looked at each other. It seems that our mouse is the best.

Analysis:

Mouse: A mouse married a woman.

The folklore of "a mouse marries a girl" is very popular in China. However, the time for "mice to marry women" varies from place to place.

In the folklore of the south of the Yangtze River, it is said that mice are harmful and unlucky, so it is necessary to marry them off on Lunar New Year's Eve to ensure peace and good luck in the coming year. In some places in the suburbs of Shanghai, it is said that mice marry women on the 16th day of the first month. That night, every household fried sesame candy, which was a joyful candy for mice.

In the north, mice marry women on the night of the 25th day of the first month. That night, every household didn't turn on the lights, and the whole family sat on the kang without saying a word, just eating "mouse claws", "scorpion tails" and fried soybeans made of flour in the dark. No lighting, no noise means to provide convenience for the mouse to marry a girl, for fear of disturbing the wedding ceremony. Eating "rat paws" means that people expect rat paws to itch and get up early to act; Eating "scorpion tail" is to prevent rats from being hurt by scorpions when they marry their daughters out of the hole. Eating fried soybeans makes a crunching sound, as if setting off firecrackers for mice.

On the night when a mouse marries a girl, candles will be placed in the corners and corridors of Zixing, Hunan Province, which means that the road through which the mouse marries is bright.

New Year pictures and paper-cuts of "Mice Marry Women" and "Mice Marry" are regarded as "mascots" in China, and they are posted on walls and windows during the Chinese New Year holidays. The New Year picture of "Mice Marry Women" printed in Mianzhu, Sichuan Province shows a group of mice waving flags and playing umbrellas, banging gongs and blowing horns, and carrying sedan chairs to welcome their families. Riding on toad's back is the "groom", wearing a Qing dynasty official hat and hand-cranked folding fan, staring at a big gold box, showing a greedy look. Just as these ugly people swaggered through the city, a rhubarb cat was waiting for them. A pair of rat brothers, one of whom has been caught by the cat's paw and bit the cat's mouth. At this time, the "bride" sitting in the sedan chair knew that the end was coming and she was in tears. This New Year picture reflects people's distinct love and hate.
