Mice Story: Three Brother Mice and the Wild Fruit Necklaces
Not far from the home of the three brother mice, seven squirrel sisters had just moved into a tree.
The three brother mice watched them secretly from their window for a long time. Then, they grabbed their baskets and went out.
When they returned, Mouse Da Da had picked red flowers, Mouse Lao Er had picked yellow flowers, and Mouse Xiao Xiao had picked blue flowers. They found some pretty thread and strung the wildflowers together, alternating one red, one yellow, and one blue flower in sequence, creating seven beautiful wildflower necklaces. The three brother mice hung the seven wildflower necklaces on the squirrels’ door and then ran back home.
The next day, the three brother mice hid by the window and watched as the seven squirrel sisters came out wearing the wildflower necklaces. Mouse Da Da said, “They don’t even know that we made those wildflower necklaces.” Mouse Lao Er said, “The necklaces only look good when they wear them.” Mouse Xiao Xiao said, “They are truly beautiful.”
Summer quickly passed, and then autumn arrived.
One day, the three brother mice grabbed their baskets and went out again.
When they returned, their baskets were filled with the same things: chestnuts, pine cones, hazelnuts, and mushrooms. The three brother mice busily strung these together in the sequence of one chestnut, one pine cone, one hazelnut, and one mushroom, making seven wild fruit necklaces.
They hung the seven wild fruit necklaces on the squirrels’ door and then ran back home.
Winter came, and one day it started to snow heavily.
The three brother mice hid by their window again, peering towards the squirrels’ home. They saw the seven squirrel sisters with the wild fruit necklaces around their necks, nibbling on them while watching the snowy scenery outside.
