Chapter 058
The Weaver Girl's job is to use a magical silk to weave layers of beautiful clouds on the loom, changing their color with the time and season, which is the "heavenly clothes".
It's miserable! Li Yu shook his head sympathetically, but his mouth was still chewing potato chips.
"Since the morning glory was degraded, the weaver girl often washed her face with tears and missed the morning glory with a sad brow. She sat by the loom and kept weaving beautiful cloud brocade in order to win the Queen Mother's kindness and let the morning glory return to the heavenly realm as soon as possible. ”
At this time, Naomi paused, took a sip of the teacup, and asked, "And then?" Did the Queen Mother show mercy? ”
Shang Mei shook her head: "No, one day, the other daughters of the Queen Mother begged to go to the Blue Lotus Pond in the world, and the Queen Mother was in a good mood that day, so she agreed to them." When they saw that the Weaver Girl was depressed all day long, they pleaded with the Queen Mother to let the Weaver Girl go with her, and the Queen Mother also felt sorry for the granddaughter after being punished, so she asked them to go and return quickly.
After the morning glory was degraded, he was born in a peasant family and named the cowherd. Later, when his parents died, he followed his brother and sister-in-law to live. Brother and sister-in-law treated the cowherd very meanly, to separate the family with him, only gave him an old cow and a broken car, the rest were monopolized by the brother and sister-in-law, after the separation, the cowherd and the old cow depended on each other, they cut thorns and thorns on the wasteland, cultivated the land, built houses, and barely survived.
However, except for the old cow who couldn't speak, there was only one cowherd in the deserted home, and life was quite lonely. The cowherd didn't know that the old cow was originally the Taurus in the sky. ”
Hearing this, Li Yu bit the potato chips in his mouth fiercely, and said strangely: "What the hell, why is Taurus involved, and has he been demoted to the mortal world because of something?" ”
Shang Mei was dumbfounded by the question, thinking, is it too late to go to the mortal world to check the net?
touched the sweat in front of his forehead and said, "Eh, I don't know why Taurus is in the mortal world, maybe it's specifically to help the Cowherd and Weaver Girl, right?"
One day, the old cow suddenly spoke, asked the cowherd to go to the blue lotus pond to hide the red fairy clothes, and told him that as long as this way, the fairy in the red fairy clothes would become his wife.
The cowherd was very happy to see the old cow spitting out words! In response to what the old cow said, he quietly hid in the reeds of the blue lotus pond, and after the fairies went into the water, they stole the red fairy clothes.
When the fairies saw that someone was coming, they hurriedly put on their clothes and flew away like birds, leaving only the fairy who could not escape without clothes, and she was the Weaver Girl.
When the weaver girl saw that her fairy clothes were snatched away by a young man, she was ashamed and anxious, but she was helpless. At this time, the cowherd came up to her and told her that he could return her clothes only if she agreed to be his wife. The Weaver Girl looked at it and knew that the Cowherd was the morning glory she thought about day and night, so she shyly agreed to him. In this way, the Weaver Girl became the wife of the Cowherd. ”
Liyu frowned and interrupted Naomi's words: "This legend is too, isn't it?" Aren't these fairies magical? Why did a mortal appear and fly away in shock? Why can't you leave if your clothes are stolen and snatch them back? Or just take another one out of the storage space? ”
Shang Mei rolled her eyes and said angrily: "Hehe, sister, I just told you the legend I know!" How do I know so many whys! ”
"Do you still hear such legends?"
"Listen, you go on."
"After the Cowherd and Weaver Girl got married, the men ploughed and the women weaved, loved each other, and lived a very happy life. Soon they gave birth to a son and a daughter, who were very lovely. The Cowherd and Weaver Girl thought that they could stay together for life and grow old. But at this moment......"
The storyteller Shang Mei actually controlled the atmosphere and hooked up the heart of the twilight, as if she wanted to know what was going on at this time.
However, when the Queen Mother learned of this, she was furious and immediately sent the Heavenly Fairy to catch the Weaver Girl back to Heaven to ask for the crime.
At that time, the Weaver Girl was cooking, and the Cowherd who went down to the ground hurried back, his eyes were red and swollen and told the Weaver Girl that the old cow was dead, and the old cow said before he died that he wanted the Cowherd to peel off his cowhide and put it away, and one day put it on, and he could fly to the sky.
When the Weaver Girl heard this, she wondered in her heart! She understands that Lao Niu is the Taurus in the sky, just because she said a few fair words for the morning glory who was demoted, she also degraded the heavenly court! How could it die suddenly? The Weaver Girl asked the Cowherd to peel off the cow's skin and bury the old cow well.
Look, isn't that the solution to your first doubt! Taurus was demoted because he spoke for Morning Glory. ”
Shang Mei looked at Li Yu and said proudly.
Li Yu nodded understandingly, and then said, "This is too harsh!" Just say a few words and be degraded, your legendary immortals are not having a good time! ”
Shang Mei cleared her throat and continued: "At this moment, the sky was stormy, and the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals fell from the sky. The Cowherd hurriedly jumped his two children with a pair of baskets, and flew into the sky wearing cowhides.
Slowly, the distance between them became closer and closer, and the Weaver Girl could see the cute appearance of the children, and the children also opened their arms and shouted "Mommy", seeing that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were about to meet.
But at this moment, the Queen Mother came with auspicious clouds, she pulled off the golden hairpin on her head, and swiped between them, and in an instant, a heavenly river rolled between the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd, unable to cross.
The Weaver Girl looked at the Cowherd and the children on the other side of the Tianhe River, and cried hoarsely, and the Cowherd and the children also cried to death. Their cries, the children's shouts of "mother", were so heart-wrenching and tear-jerking that even the fairies and gods who were watching felt sad and unbearable.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother was also slightly moved by the steadfast love of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, so she agreed to let the Cowherd and the children stay in heaven and let them meet once every year on the seventh day of the seventh month.
From then on, the Weaver Girl, the Cowherd and the children could only look at each other from afar across the Tianhe, and on the 7th of July, countless flocks of magpies would fly to build a bridge for them to meet.
As a result, the festival of Tanabata was formed. The festival of Qixi Festival means that married men and women will never abandon and grow old together, and abide by the commitment of both parties to love, so Qixi Festival is also Valentine's Day.
Every year on the day of Qixi Festival, it will be very lively, there are many little girls selling flowers on the street, couples coming and going, girls holding bouquets, boys holding girls' hands......"
Li Yu gave a thumbs up: "You mortals are so rich in imagination! ”
Shang Mei asked curiously, "Is there really no Weaver Girl and Cowherd in your Heavenly Realm?" ”
