So people will go to bed and rest earlier that night in case mice get disturbed. They will also scatter some rice and cake in the corners as wedding gifts. This folk tale shows people's hope to achieve a state of non-interference, coexistence in the relationship with mice. Celebrating the wedding of mice, who are very fertile, also expresses people's wish for the family to be prosperous in the following year. With flexible drumbeats and vivid performance, the piece shows a humorous and lively scene of the rodent’s marriage.
