The Legend of Cowherd and Weaver Girl

The orphan Cowherd lives on his brother's sister-in-law, who is mean and often abuses him. He was forced to split up and live on an old cow. This old cow is very psychic. One day, the weaver girl and the fairies took a bath together in the river. The old cow advised the cowherd to meet each other and told him that if the fairies didn't come back before dawn, they would stay on earth.

Cowherd stayed by the river to see the seven fairies. He found the youngest fairy beautiful and suddenly fell in love with her. Thinking of the old cow, the cowherd quietly took the little fairy's clothes. The fairies took a bath and prepared to return to heaven. The little fairy found that her clothes were gone and had to stay. The cowherd met the little weaver girl. Later, I got along well and understood their difficulties. The Weaver Girl became the wife of the Cowherd.

After marriage, they farm and weave, have a son and a daughter, and live a very happy life. Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Heaven discovered this matter and ordered the Queen Mother to escort the Weaver Girl back to heaven for trial. The old cow couldn't bear to see their wife and children separated, so she touched the horn on her head and turned it into a boat for the cowherd to chase with her children. On the verge of catching up with Weaver Girl, the Queen Mother suddenly tore off the golden hairpin on her head and drew a rolling galaxy in the sky.

Cowherd can't cross the river, so he can only look at the river and cry with Weaver Girl. Their faithful love touched magpies, and countless magpies flew in and built a colorful bridge on the Tianhe River with their bodies, so that the cowherd and the Weaver Girl could meet on the Tianhe River. The Emperor of Heaven had no choice but to allow the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to meet at the Magpie Bridge once a year on July 7th, and the magpies would be around. Cowherd and Weaver Girl will meet on July 7th every year.
