In the scene, a black cat is peacefully sleeping, with only fish bones remaining beside it, while two mice forage near a torn sack of grain, with grains scattered all over the ground. Cats and mice are natural enemies, yet here they create a temporary balance. The bulging grain sack and spilled grains symbolize harvest and abundance, also implying a life of "having enough to eat and wear." Zhao Erdai captures the essence of daily life with a concise and humorous brushstroke.
