When I was a child, Lin Jie, like her mother or other women, was interested in the wonderful legend of being clever. Looking up at the bright Tianhe in the distant night sky, looking at the dazzling two stars on both sides of Tianhe, expecting to see the convergence of these two stars, I wrote the poem Begging for the Spirit.
In his poems, the poet did not specifically write out various wishes, but left room for imagination, expressing people's desire for wisdom and happiness.
Qiao Qi Ringer's Original Works and Translations
See Bixiao tonight on Tanabata, and cross the river bridge with the cowherd and the weaver girl.
Every family watches the autumn moon, and every family wears HongLing.
Translation:
On Qixi night, looking up at the blue sky is like seeing the cowherd and the weaver girl meet on the magpie bridge across the Tianhe River. Every household is looking at the autumn moon while trying to be clever (threading a needle on the moon), and there are tens of thousands of red lines that pass through it.
Begging for cleverness is begging for cleverness. This is the custom of China when he was seven years old. This day is Seven Sisters's seventh birthday. From the first day of the seventh lunar month to the seventh day of the seventh lunar month (seven days and eight nights), girls in new clothes beg for wisdom and intelligence from Vega in the yard, which is called "begging for cleverness". It is said that qimei is an expert in weaving heaven. In the past, women "begged" Qi Mei to teach her clever skills. In fact, the so-called "seeking cleverness" is just "fighting cleverness". Most girls try their best to make small things and put some melons and fruits on them. Traditional folk begging varies from place to place and has its own interests. In modern times, threading needles, steaming steamed bread, branding proper fruit, making clever buds, and decorations made of dough sculpture, paper-cutting and colored embroidery are also an extension of the custom of begging for cleverness.
