Chapter 31: The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl

There were a lot of dishes brought back at noon, and because Granny Zhang and Nan Nan had eaten at noon, they just tasted it fresh and didn't eat much, so they didn't cook again at night, but just cooked some white rice porridge.

And Wu Di ate too much because he ate and drank at noon, and he still didn't feel much digestion when he woke up, so he simply drank some porridge.

By the time we finished eating, it was already dark.

Granny Zhang was old, went to bed early, and went back to the house after eating and cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and Wu Di also took Nan Nan back to the room and prepared to rest.

But Wu Di only slept for an afternoon, just less than half an hour, he is not a pig, where can he sleep?

Therefore, lying in bed, sometimes staring at the roof in a daze, sometimes tossing and turning.

"Daddy, can't you sleep?"

At this time, the girl next to her asked aloud.

"Hello, is your father arguing with you? You sleep, Daddy doesn't move anymore! ”

As he spoke, he patted her gently and motioned for her to continue sleeping.

Who knew that the little girl sat up directly, and the not very bright moonlight that came in through the paper window stretched the figure of the girl very long.

"Daddy, I can't sleep either!"

“……………”

Well, the father and daughter are full of tacit understanding, one can't sleep, and the other can't sleep.

Just after eating, staying in the hut felt a little stuffy, Wu Di also sat up, "Nannan, let's go out to enjoy the coolness, okay?" ”

"Okay, okay!"

Nan Nan happily clapped her little hands, infinitely satisfied.

So the two of them pushed the door out, and sat down on the stone chair under the vines by the light of the half moon, and was very comfortable.

At this time, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the sky is full of stars, which is a good scenery.

"Daddy, why do the stars in the sky only light up at night?"

As soon as the little girl sat down, she turned on the question mode.

And Wu Di categorically wouldn't do anything with a three-year-old girl to explain that the stars themselves don't shine and only shine when the sun shines, which is too sandy.

"Because the immortals in the stars have to light up at night, that's why they shine at night!"

Three years old is the most innocent age, children's minds are very simple, Wu Di still hopes that his answer will remain interesting.

The little girl nodded thoughtfully, still tilting her head, and after a while, she pointed to a dense cluster of stars in the northern sky and asked, "Daddy, those stars are so close, like a river!" ”

Wu Di looked in the direction pointed by Nannan, and saw a silver-white bright belt lying across the nine heavens, and the smoke waves were vast and magnificent.

Then he smiled and said: "What Nan Nan said is right, it is indeed a river, called the Milky Way!" ”

"Galaxy?"

It's the first time the little girl has heard such a magical name, the Milky Way, is it a river made of silver? It's amazing!

"Daddy, what does Galaxy do?"

"The Milky Way, it's to separate the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl! Every year during the Qixi Festival, the magpies will fly to the Milky Way and build a magpie bridge, so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can meet! ”

What Wu Di said was just a mythical story that would become a household name in later generations, but Nan Nan was completely stunned after listening to it, because everything Wu Di said was extremely novel to her.

"The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl? What is that? And why should the Milky Way separate them? What is Qixi Festival? ”

Listening to a series of questions, Wu Di realized that the seventh day of July in this era is just a festival for girls to beg for ingenuity in the sky, called the Beggar's Skillful Festival, and later generations also have this name, but there is no concept of the Qixi Festival here, and naturally I don't know the mythical story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

Wu Di thought about it, and there was nothing to do at night, so he simply told Nan Nan the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl!

"Once upon a time, there was a man named Cowherd who was herding cattle by the river, and the Queen Mother of Heaven had seven daughters............

Wu Di spoke seriously, and Nan Nan listened equally carefully, not paying attention to the two girls standing behind the moon gate on the side of the small garden, not Zhou Ziqiong and Qiu Luo, who are they?

"Miss, let's go catch him this time and see if he can leave!"

Qiu Luo was about to make a gesture to go out after speaking, but was stopped by Zhou Ziqiong.

"Miss, what are you stopping me from doing? Let's get over quickly, and he will run into the house again in a moment! ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Luo was angry and aggrieved!

At noon today, they came to deliver silver to Wu Di, but Wu Di left them in place under the pretext of sleeping, okay, they wait!

As a result, after waiting for an afternoon, Wu Di just didn't come out, and I heard Xiao Nannan say that he was still sleeping, but Qiu Luo didn't believe it, who could sleep for so long in an afternoon? Pigs?

He must have heard that they were outside, and deliberately didn't come out!

It's so hard to give money to people, and there is no one else!

Now that Wu Di is on the other side, Qiu Luo naturally doesn't want to let go of this opportunity!

Zhou Ziqiong looked at Qiu Luo, put her finger to her mouth and made a silent gesture, and whispered, "Don't speak, listen to what he says!" ”

It turned out that not only the three-year-old girl was curious about the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, but even Zhou Ziqiong, a beautiful girl with both ability and integrity, couldn't resist the temptation of the wonderful story and indulged in it.

Seeing that the young lady was so fascinated, Qiu Luo's mouth was high, but there was nothing she could do, she stomped her feet, and could only listen to it with Zhou Ziqiong.

………………

The history of more than 5,000 years in China, there are countless myths and stories, and they are also wonderful.

"The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were together, and gave birth to two children, a boy and a girl. Life should have gone on so happily, but where did I know that the Queen Mother knew about the two of them-Nannan, what do you think the Queen Mother will do? ”

As he spoke, Wu Di looked at Nannan, who was snuggled in his arms and listened to the story carefully, and had closed his eyes at this time.

Children are still children after all, and no matter how good the story is, it may become their lullaby, which is why future generations of parents always tell some bedside stories before their children go to bed!

Since Nan Nan is asleep, there is no need to tell the story further, Wu Di was about to get up and go back to the house to sleep, and at this time, there was the sound of footsteps next to him.

The next moment, Zhou Ziqiong and Qiu Luo walked out, but this time Qiu Luo bore the brunt.

"Then did the Queen Mother see that the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd even had children, and finally decided to fulfill the two of them?"

Qiu Luo came to Wu Di's side, and the previous appearance of putting on a stinky face when she saw Wu Di was gone, but became the appearance of a curious baby.

Zhou Ziqiong, who was behind her, was uncharacteristic this time and did not stop her, obviously wanting to know the answer.
