One day when some government officials were rebuilding a barn(谷仓),they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out.A while later they indeed saw mice running out,one after another.Then,everyone thought that all the mice had escapde.But just as they began to clean up,they saw two micesqueezing(挤)out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts,the mice finally got out. However,it was strange that after they cameout of the hole,they did not run away immediately.Instead,ome chased after the other near the mouth of the hole.It seemed that onewas trying to bite(咬)the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled,so they stepped nearer to take a look.They realizde that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything,and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that hecould pull the blind one with him to escape.

of husband and wife.”Again the others thought for a while,and all felt it made sense.

At that moment,one Chinese asked:“Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship? ”
