Journey Through the East: The Peony Fairy

Zhinu sat on a stone chair, resting her chin on one hand and looking sadly at the endless Milky Way in front of her, thinking that it would be a long time before she could see her beloved husband, and she didn't know whether he was fat or not. Thin?Maybe he is sitting on the other side of the galaxy thinking about himself like me?

Zhinu only heard a crisp call from her ear: "Sister Zhinu." Feeling a sudden gust of wind around her, hearty laughter rang out again, "Hey, I knew you would be here, Sure enough, I guessed well."

Zhinu raised her head and glanced at Fairy Peony who was full of laughter and said listlessly: "It's you, Sister Peony, why are you here?"

"Missing your husband again?" Fairy Peony didn't mind Zhinu's indifference towards her, but asked with a smile.

"En." Weaver Girl replied in a low voice.

"Sister Zhinu, you can't do this! If the Queen Mother knows that you are lazy and don't weave, what if she is so angry that you don't want to see each other?"

Thinking of the carefree days when she, the cowherd, and the children were in the past, Zhinu couldn't help becoming more resentful when she thought of her current life. She stood up from the stone bench and said resentfully, "How can this be done?" ? She has made me unable to be with the cowherd, how can she be so cruel that I have no hope at all?"

Fairy Peony was startled by Weaver Girl's words, she quickly looked around, and found that there was no one hiding around, so she was relieved, approached her, and whispered in her ear: "Shh, Weaver Girl!" Sister, are you crazy? Although we are in heaven, there is a saying in the world, have you forgotten it is called "the wall has ears", don't you be afraid that someone who cares will listen to it, and report your remarks to the Queen Mother? I'm afraid it won't be as simple as seeing them once a year."

Zhinu couldn't help but turn pale with shock when she heard what Peony said, patted her head with regret, covered her mouth subconsciously and shook her head desperately.

To be honest, Peony Fairy feels awkward after hearing the word Niulang. When I was in college, many boys in the same class would organize together to watch a/v movies, and I often heard them making fun of Niulang. This word is actually used by the Japanese to describe male prostitutes. At the beginning, she refuted it. She even dreamed that she became a person with super powers and killed all the Japanese. Who would let these People put this group of people with dirty bodies and viruses all over their bodies into such a name that no Chinese dare to blaspheme.

Later, they often ridiculed Niulang's parents. They all believed that the names given by parents to their children reflected the parents' love for their children, but they agreed that Niulang's parents actually hated Niulang very much, otherwise they would not I gave him this name, and after careful reflection, I found that this is the truth. If you really feel sorry for him, you should divide the family property before you die, so that you won’t end up with a place to stay nothing.

It wasn't until she went to heaven that she realized that the version of the story of Cowherd and Weaver Girl was not the one widely circulated among the people, but another version, which was also told by Zhinu herself after she went to heaven.

Zhinu used to be the most beloved fairy around the Queen Mother. She was very good at weaving, and the cloth woven by her skillful hands was particularly beautiful, so she was often praised by the Jade Emperor.Later, the Jade Emperor saw that she was very lonely, so he decided to marry her to a Cowherd in Hexi. Being companions together, they forgot their own job. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother felt very sad about this, so they decided to keep Zhinu and Niulang as husband and wife, but they were only allowed to meet once a year.

Ordinary people think that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet only once a year according to the mortal calculation, but they don’t know that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are actually gods in the sky, and the time they meet is actually calculated according to the time in the sky. Yes, as the saying goes, one day in the sky and one thousand years in the human world, if according to the calculation of the human world, wouldn’t the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet every day? Who should do it?But the queen mother has always used the rules of heaven as her code of conduct, so how can she use the calculation of the world to calculate the time in the sky?The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are really a pair of fateful mandarin ducks, Peony sighed silently in her heart.

Peony Fairy looked at Zhinu's gloomy look, but actually felt very uncomfortable, and said with a slight smile, "Sister Zhinu, why don't you tell me more about your child's childhood."

When Zhinu heard the word child, her heart was moved, the melancholy on her face gradually dissipated, and a loving smile appeared on her face: "There is a saying in the world that 'children are mothers, daughters are fathers', I think this is true. Niulang and I had a child not long after we got married, and that child looked like a cowherd. At that time, like all parents in the world, we were looking forward to this child and wanted to give her all the good things in the world. "

Fairy Peony listened quietly with her chin in her hands. When she heard this, her heart moved, and she thought of her parents who were busy with their own work in the modern age.When I was young, my family’s conditions were not very good, but my parents loved her very much. It can be said that they would never pick the moon if they wanted the stars. Later, because of their careers, their parents gradually improved their careers, but the problems continued one after another. In the end, if it wasn't for her, I'm afraid they would really divorce because of the mistress's problem, so they love themselves very much, and I love them very much, but it's a pity that I may never see them again.

Seeing Peony Fairy's red eyes and sad expression on her face, Zhinu grabbed her heart. She had seen such an expression on her own child before she left Cowherd and came back here. Mother's love began to overflow at this moment. He got up, walked up to Peony Fairy, pulled her into his arms, and patted her on the back lightly, like a mother coaxing a child.

Fairy Peony felt the peaceful and gentle aura of Zhinu, hugged her and wept softly, as if she wanted to vent all the fear and helplessness of the past few days at this moment.Perhaps it was because the two of them had similarities, so from this moment onwards they both let go of their final defenses.

The author has something to say: I'm really sorry for Cavin before.
