Small merchants and hawkers from other places also gathered in Jimo City. Those who painted sugar figurines, sold water cakes and candied gourds, and those who popped chestnuts were endlessly hawking.

The lamps made by some old craftsmen are beautiful and fun, with originality and characteristics.

People put on good-looking clothes, take their children, go shopping, put on lanterns, and enjoy the moon.

The Qiqiao Festival is regarded as a festival for young people, so the young master and Ruyi naturally cannot miss it.The two dressed up carefully before going out together.

The outstanding appearance of the two is particularly eye-catching in the crowd.

People on the street stand shoulder to shoulder and wear their skirts hand in hand.

During this period, some collisions were inevitable, who stepped on whose foot, and who bumped into whose shoulder.

The young master shook Ruyi's little hand tightly with his big hand, protecting her well along the way.

Ruyi was still a little flustered at first, she raised her head to meet her righteous brother's eyes, seeing that his eyes were as pure as before, she knew that she was a villain who saved the heart of a gentleman.Let go of your guard, and hold the young master's hand back.

A brother and a sister walk hand in hand through the crowd.

"Xiao Ruyi, do you know the origin of this Qiqiao Festival?" the young master asked.

"I don't know!" She answered with her mouth, but her eyes were aiming everywhere.

Ruyi's face is full of joy, this midsummer festival is more interesting than New Year's Eve, this is the first time she has come to Jimo to participate in the Qiqiao Festival, and she has been staying at the Military Supply Department for the past seven or eight years.The excitement outside does not belong to her.

"Qiqiao is also known as Qixi Festival, and there are many sayings. We scholars call this day 'Kuixing Festival', also known as 'Book Sunning Festival'." The young master took Ruyi and waved his hand and said: "Look at the stars in the sky, use the Big Dipper The seven stars are the brightest, and you can even use them to distinguish the north, south, east, and west at night. If you win the first prize, you will be called 'Da Kui Tian Shi'."

Ruyi raised her head and looked up, and she saw seven bright stars among the thousands of stars, and suddenly said ah, she felt that her brother-in-law was really knowledgeable and talented.

"For you girls, there is a more touching legend about Qixi Festival. According to legend, there is a fairy named Zhinu in the sky. She and several sisters came down to the earth to play and bathe by the lake. There is a young man named Niu in the mortal world. Lang, there is an old cow in his family who was originally the Altair in the sky and was demoted to the earth. One day the old cow spoke and said, "Niulang, you go to Bilianchi. There are fairies taking a bath there. You will Hide a red fairy dress, and that fairy will be your wife at that time.'”

The young master lowered his voice, imitating the old cow's voice.

Ruyi was amused and giggled.

The young master continued: "Later, the cowherd obeyed the old cow and stole the fairy's clothes. After the fairies finished their bath, they all put on the fairy clothes and flew back to the sky. Only the owner of the red fairy clothes But she couldn't find her own clothes anyway, so she could only be trapped in the world. Later, she married a cowherd and lived a life of men farming and women weaving. The two were very happy and had children. But Immortals and mortals were not allowed to get married, and the heaven was furious. The Queen Mother waved a Milky Way and separated the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Only on the seventh day of the seventh month of each year, the two of them could meet each other. On this day, magpies all over the world would fly to On the Milky Way, build a magpie bridge, so that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl can meet."

"Well, this story is touching. The Qiqiao Festival can also be regarded as the Girl's Day. You can see the girls coming and going on the street, all dressed up beautifully, so you want to find your fate like the Weaver Girl."
