In the Chinese folk zodiac, the individual very small mouse is the boss and sits in the top seat; while the cow with a large individual is the second oldest, which seems very unreasonable. When I was a child, I listened to my grandmother and there was a folk legend that at first, the Jade Emperor let his men set up twelve chairs and prepared to row twelve kinds of animals. Rats are nocturnal animals, and when they first make love, they report in advance and unceremoniously sit in the top seat. The cow thought that he was walking slowly, so he rushed to the night road early and came to report, but he came a step late and was preempted by the rats. The cow was not convinced, and said to the mouse: "You are not as big as my hooves, you dare to be the boss, you want to sit in the top seat, roll down, that is where I sit." The rat had a deep heart, did not argue with the cow, and did not dare to compete with the cow, so he said to the cow: "We both lie on the side of the road, and let the passers-by comment to see who is bigger, who will be the boss, and sit in the top seat." The old cow laughed and agreed. Unexpectedly, people are accustomed to seeing big cows, but rarely see big rats, and passers-by turn a blind eye to cows, but exclaim: "Such a big mouse!" The cattle had heard the people on the road say this, and although the boss was not convinced, he was willing to gamble and lose, so he had to recognize himself as the second oldest and no longer bothered with the rats. When I think about it, the little mouse has such self-confidence, but it is also rare.
