The story of the Weaver Girl Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting at the Queqiao, what did the Cowher

Thoughts: The two haven't seen each other for a year.

Cowherd: How are you doing?

Weaver Girl: I'm doing well, what about you and the child?

Cowherd: We're fine too.

Weaver Girl: I haven't seen them for a year, and the children have grown a lot taller, but unfortunately I can't watch them grow up with my own eyes.

Cowherd: We still have a future, and children often think about you.

Weaver Girl: Hmm. Every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, commonly known as "Qixi Festival", it is said that it is the day when the Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet on the "Magpie Bridge" once a year. For thousands of years, this ancient and moving love story has been passed down from generation to generation, and this day is also known as the Chinese version of "Valentine's Day" by modern people.

The granddaughter of the ancient Emperor secretly went down to play, met the Cowherd and fell in love with him, and the two got married privately and lived a life of male ploughing and female weaving. When the Queen Mother found out, she was furious and ordered someone to capture the Weaver Girl back to the Heavenly Palace and order them to separate. Later, because the magpie sympathized with the lover, he used his body to build a colorful bridge across the Tianhe River, so that the two could meet every year on the Chinese Valentine's Day.

The story of "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl".

Once upon a time, there was an orphan named Cowherd, who was abused by his brother and sister-in-law since he was a child, and was forced to split up and rely on an old cow to plow the fields to support himself.

One day, when the Weaver Girl and her sisters went down to play and bathed in the river, the old cow suddenly opened his mouth to speak, persuaded the cowherd to meet, and told the cowherd that if the fairies could not go back before dawn, they could only stay in the mortal world. So the Cowherd stayed by the river to watch the seven fairies, and he fell in love with the youngest fairy, so he quietly took away the clothes of the little fairy. After the fairies took a bath, they were about to return to heaven, but the little fairy found that the clothes were missing and could only stay, and the cowherd came out at this time and made an encounter with the little fairy.

Soon after, the two of them fell in love, and the little fairy married the Cowherd and no longer wanted to go back to heaven. After getting married, they farmed and weaved, gave birth to a son and a daughter, and lived a very happy life. When the Emperor of Heaven learned of this, he was furious and ordered the Queen Mother to escort the Weaver Girl back to Heaven 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 Emperor of Heaven had no choice but to allow the Cowherd and Weaver Girl to meet once a year on the Magpie Bridge on July 7, and the magpie would also be by his side. In the future, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl will meet on July 7 every year.

Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a cowherd who was herding cattle and had a very unfortunate life. His sister-in-law was always him. One day, his sister-in-law gave him nine cows and told him to bring back ten cows when he came back in the evening. The year-old Cowherd was very sad and sat on the grass crying.

At this time, a sacred cow came over, and it said to the cowherd: If you want to change your fate, you must go to the river, where there is a fairy bathing, she is the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven. You steal her clothes, and she can't go back to heaven.

The Cowherd came to the river according to what the cow said, and sure enough, he found the fairy who was bathing, and he hid the fairy's clothes in the wild history, and the fairy had no way to return to the sky, so he had to marry the cowherd. After marriage, the two lived very happily, the man farmed and the woman weaved, and gave birth to two children.

However, when the Emperor of Heaven found out about what had happened between them, he was very angry, and sent someone to arrest the fairy. The Cowherd was very sad. And the sacred cow said unto him:

You can make my leather shoes and use them to go to the sky. According to Lao Niu's instructions, the cowherd made a pair of leather shoes out of cowhide, picked up his two children, and walked to the sky step by step.

But just when the Cowherd immediately saw the fairy, the Queen Mother suddenly appeared, and she used her silver hairpin to wave in the air, conjuring a heavenly river, separating the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl on both sides. The two had no way to be together, so they could only look at each other across the river.

Finally, the relationship between the two touched the magpie, and the magpie built a bridge for the two on the seventh day of July every year, and the two could meet on the bridge. This bridge is called Magpie Bridge.
