Once upon a time, in a prosperous land, the New Year was approaching and everyone was excited. The dragon who lived nearby was getting ready to celebrate when he noticed that his calendar was missing. He searched high and low but couldn't find it anywhere. Then, he remembered that he had given it to a rabbit as a gift. The dragon went to visit the rabbit and asked if he still had the calendar. The rabbit replied that he did, but he had used all the pages to wrap his oranges because he thought they would stay fresh longer that way. The dragon was puzzled but then he saw how many oranges the rabbit had and realized how prosperous the rabbit was. So, the dragon decided to join the rabbit in celebrating the New Year. They ate oranges and danced together, wishing for even more prosperity in the year ahead.
