I want to ask the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, what are the stories of the Cowherd and

The origin of the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is inseparable from the prototype of life. In the repertoire of the Shandong folk opera "Tianhe Pei", it was mentioned that the Cowherd's name was Sun Shouyi and he lived in the Cowherd's official village. The family surnamed Sun has lived in Niulangguan Village in Yiyuan County for generations, which naturally coincides with this legend.

The Cowherd Temple in the official village of the Cowherd, was built in the ninth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, rebuilt in the 20th year of Jiaxing in the Qing Dynasty, the statue of the Cowherd and his children in the hall, the golden cow lying next to it, the complete legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is painted on the wall, because of the destruction, the Cowherd Temple only remains the stele and the foundation. In 2009, it was rebuilt, the old system was restored, and the ancestral hall of the Sun family was expanded. On the bank of the Yi River that flows through the swallow cliff in Yiyuan County, there is a beautiful Daxian Mountain.

Legend has it that Zhang Daotong, a native of Mozhou, traveled here, practiced in the cave, and dreamed of a woman crying one day, saying that she was the daughter of the Jade Emperor, because she loved the cowherd of the mortal world, so she went down to the earth, and had no place to live, so she asked to take it in. After Zhang Daotong woke up, he went to the village under the mountain to look for it, and saw that there was a cowherd Sun Shouyi who was depressed. So he moved out of this hole and gave it to the Weaver Girl.

In the Tang Dynasty, some people passed by here, faintly heard the sound of the zaza machine in the hole, felt very magical, then molded the statue of the Weaver Girl in the hole, one of the eight views of Yiyuan, "the Weaver Girl Fairy Cave" got its name from this. The cave has been rebuilt many times, now it is the Qing Dynasty system, the inscriptions of the past dynasties in the cave are preserved completely, among them, the text on the stele of "Yishui County rebuilds the Weaver Girl Cave Heavy Building" reads: "The people of the Tang Dynasty cross the valley, hear the sound of the piercing machine in the hole, so the Weaver Girl also ......On the other side of the river, there is a cow palace, which is formed in the sky and ...... in the ground"Locals believe that the Yi River is the river that separates the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

Legend has it that every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, hundreds of birds in the mountains come to build a magpie bridge to complete the meeting of the cowherd and the weaver girl. The birds and beasts of the mountains were looking forward to moving the river away so that they could see each other every day. After a long time, "Yihe" became the name of the river, and later people changed "Yi" to "Yi", in the local dialect, "Yihe" and "Milky Way" homonym.

It can be seen that in terms of local scenery, there are many reasonable fits between this place and the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, which further proves that the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl originated in Yiyuan, Shandong. Most of the other "places of origin" are areas of post-Han transmission.

The original story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl:Legend has it that the ancient Emperor of Heaven's granddaughter Weaver Girl is good at weaving, weaving Caixia to the sky every day, she hates this boring life, so she secretly went down to the mortal world, married the Cowherd of Hexi without permission, and lived a life of male ploughing and female weaving, this matter angered the Emperor of Heaven, captured the Weaver Girl back to the Heavenly Palace, ordered them to separate, and only allowed them to meet once a year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month on the Magpie Bridge.

Their unwavering love touched the magpies, and countless magpies flew over and used their bodies to build a magpie bridge across the Tianhe River, so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl could meet on the Tianhe.

Cowherd is an orphan in Niujiazhuang who lives according to his brother and sister-in-law. His sister-in-law, Ma, was mean and often abused him, and he was forced to split up and rely on an old cow to feed himself. This old cow is very psychic, one day, the Weaver Girl and the fairies went down to play and bathed in the river, the old cow persuaded the Cowherd to get the Weaver Girl's clothes, and the Weaver Girl became the Cowherd's wife.

After getting married, they farmed and weaved, gave birth to a son and a daughter, and lived a very happy life. Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Heaven found out about this and sent the Queen Mother to escort the Weaver Girl back to the Heavenly Court for trial. The old cow couldn't bear to let their wives separate, so he cut off the horns on his head and turned it into a small boat, and let the cowherd carry his children to chase after him in a boat.

Seeing that she was about to catch up with the Weaver Girl, the Queen Mother suddenly pulled off the golden hairpin on her head and drew a rolling Milky Way in the sky. The Cowherd couldn't cross the river, so he could only look at the Weaver Girl by the river and weep from afar. Their steadfast love touched the magpies, and countless magpies flew over and used their bodies to build a colorful bridge across the Tianhe, so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl could meet on the Tianhe.

The Queen Mother had no choice but to allow the Cowherd and Weaver Girl to meet once a year on July 7 on the Magpie Bridge.

Since the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar is the rainy season, it often rains on this day, and people say that this is the tears of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Some boys and girls in the countryside will lie under the grape trellises, and it is said that the whispers of the cowherd and the weaver girl can be heard. Because the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is beautiful and moving, to this day, people often use "the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" to describe the love of husband and wife.

The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, also known as the "Qixi Festival", tells a story about love. In ancient Chinese mythology, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are the stars in the sky, and the two committed the taboo of the gods because of their love, and were punished to the mortal world, becoming a cowherd herding sheep and a weaver girl with wild weaving. They secretly met on Valentine's Day (the seventh day of the seventh lunar month) and expressed their deep love for each other.

But they can only fall in love at first sight, parted for a long time, and cannot get together, and finally became a fairy in the sky and a bull star, but the love story of the two of them has been passed down to this day, and is known as "China's Lover's Spine Festival".
