He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

Chapter 65 Interpretation of the folk version of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl

It's July, and the Chinese Valentine's Day will be here in a few days.

Lu Yan had been asking about how Chinese Valentine's Day was celebrated a few days ago and what activities there were, for fear that she would miss a good opportunity to make money.

"On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, the streets will be very lively when begging for clever things, no less than the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Young girls can make clever fruits and play various begging games." Lu Sheng explained: "Like threading a needle against the moon, throwing a needle at the moon, etc. A needle tests skill, and rich families sometimes compete with orchids at night in their own homes. They also worship the Weaver Girl, praying for their ingenuity and a happy marriage."

Lu Yan thoughtfully said: "Then there aren't many places where we can play."

Lu Sheng nodded: "Just go out and have some fun, don't worry about it."

The Spring Equinox seemed to understand, and the Winter Solstice looked even more confused: "Then do we have to worship the Weaver Girl?"

Lu Yan: "I won't do it, but you can do it if you want. Just pray for dexterity, and pray for a happy marriage. If you want to pray for a happy marriage, I'll take you two to worship the Hehe Erxian. We don't want to worship the Weaver Girl. "

At the Spring Equinox and Winter Solstice, I was even more confused: "Why?"

"Because Weaver Girl herself didn't get any good marriage, what can I do to protect you?" Lu Shengyun said calmly.

Lu Yan glanced at Lu Sheng in surprise, but she didn't expect this kid to have such an awareness.

Lu Yan saw that the two little ones didn't understand anything, so she simply told the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl: "Have you heard the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl? The Weaver Girl was originally a fairy in the sky, weaving clouds in the sky. She and her sisters came down to the earth to play. Bathing in a pool in the mortal world.”

"There was a man named Cowherd. His family was so poor that he only had a shabby house and an old cow. One day, the old cow suddenly spoke. The old cow said that some fairies were bathing in that pool today. You went to steal them. That red fairy dress, so that the fairy in the red fairy dress can't go back to heaven, and can only stay in the mortal world and marry you as his wife. The Cowherd listened to Lao Niu's words and came to the pool. As expected, there were seven Fairies were playing in the water."

"The Cowherd ran out and stole the red fairy clothes. When the fairies found out that a stranger was coming, they put on their fairy clothes in panic and flew away like birds. Only the Weaver Girl had her fairy clothes stolen. After leaving, she could not come back. The Cowherd came forward and asked her to be his wife, so the two became husband and wife."

"From then on, the Weaver Girl changed from a fairy in the sky to an ordinary peasant woman. She and the Cowherd lived a life of men farming and women weaving, taking care of the housework, and gave birth to two children for the Cowherd. The Queen Mother in heaven knew about this. He was furious and took Weaver Girl back to the sky."

"The old cow died. The old cow said that his skin could help the Cowherd to go to heaven. So the Cowherd picked up two children and chased them to the sky wearing the old cow's skin. The Queen Mother pulled out her golden hairpin, and between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl With a sharp stroke in the middle, a Milky Way appeared. From then on, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl were separated on both sides of the Milky Way. Only on July [-]th every year, countless magpies flew to build a magpie bridge for them, so that they could meet."

Spring Equinox and Winter Solstice still don't quite understand why Weaver Girl didn't get a good marriage: "Isn't it because of the Queen Mother's obstruction that she and Cowherd separated?"

"But the Cowherd himself is not a good person." Lu Sheng said: "The Cowherd is described in the story as a loyal and kind man, but he peeked at the girl bathing, stole the girl's clothes, and threatened others to become his wife. , which honest and kind-hearted person would do these things? Anyone who can do such things is definitely a hooligan. You should also remember in the future, when you look at a person, don’t look at what he says, but how he does it. .”

Spring Equinox and Winter Solstice were already shocked when they heard these remarks.

Lu Yan added to the fire: "And their love is also very doubtful. Before the Cowherd saw the Weaver Girl, he listened to Lao Niu and prepared to steal the red fairy clothes. In other words, he wanted to stay and wear the red fairy clothes. This fairy from Xianyi is his wife, no matter who this person is. This is not even love at first sight. He does not fall in love with Weaver Girl at all. He wants a fairy to be his wife, and that unlucky guy happens to be Weaver Girl. Zhinu's love is also It is very inexplicable that she was forced to marry the Cowherd. After the two got married, she changed from a noble fairy to an ordinary hardworking peasant woman. She still thought it was love, but in fact many people thought it was a mental illness."

Hearing this new statement, Lu Sheng couldn't help turning his head to look at Lu Yan.

"You can also understand that there is something wrong with her brain. There is a saying that when the victim is in a weak situation, he may develop attachment and feelings for the perpetrator." Lu Yan said: "So the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is a selfish story. A story about a self-interested gangster who used coercion to kidnap a rich girl with a brain problem to be his wife, but was eventually discovered by the rich girl’s family and forcibly separated them.”

I received this huge amount of information during the spring equinox and winter solstice, and I was so shocked that I couldn’t even close my mouth.

Lu Yan gave a devilish smile: "So through the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, what did you learn?"

Vernal Equinox's mouth is faster than his brain: "No...don't marry a poor man?"

Lu Yan: "..."

Lu Sheng: "..."

"No, poverty is not the key." Lu Yan said: "Poverty is not terrible, what is terrible is poor character. If a person intimidates you through certain things or uses so-called chastity to coerce you, then you must not marry him. Not only should you stay away from him, but you should also give him a good beating."

"It's not that difficult to get married, but marrying a scumbag is going to be a lifetime of hardship."

The Spring Equinox and Winter Solstice were in a trance, as if I was processing the huge amount of information I had just received.

Instead, Lu Sheng was more interested in a certain point: "When the victim is in a vulnerable situation, he may develop feelings for the perpetrator. Is this true?"

"It's true. There are real examples." Lu Yan nodded: "There were once two people who tied up four protons. During this period, they threatened the four protons with their lives and occasionally showed some favors. After a period of time, the officials They subdued these two men and rescued four protons. But all four protons said that they did not resent those two men, and were even grateful to them. One of the girls among the four protons even got married to one of the two men. .”

Lu Sheng was stunned: "Why is this?"

"People's fear has a fragile bottom line. When their fate is in the hands of others, they may develop a sense of attachment to the person who controls their fate, thinking that they share the same fate as the perpetrator." Lu Yan said : "It can only be said that people can be domesticated."

Lu Sheng felt goosebumps all over his body.

After this battle, several people in the Lu family showed a strong dislike for the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, but they still had to go through the festival of begging for cleverness.
