Does anyone know what festival July 7th is?
Every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, girls often put the fruits and vegetables of the season in front of the bright moon in the sky on this romantic night, begging the fairy in the sky to give them smart hearts and dexterous hands, so that they can master the knitting technology of needlework, and even beg for the combination of love and marriage.
Begging for Qiao, a custom activity originated from Valentine's Day in China, is mainly because the Weaver Girl is the "daughter of the Emperor of Heaven" and is ingenious and admired by girls on earth. Today, when people talk about begging for cleverness, they often quote the record of "Dream in a Dream" written by Nanyang people in the Southern and Northern Dynasties: July 7 is the night when Petunia and Weaver Girl get together. At night, do women tie colorful buildings, wear seven-hole needles or use gold and silver? Stone is the needle, and Chen Guaguo is clever in court.
According to "History of Chu State" published by Henan University Press, "Jingchu is from the south of Henan, Hengyang in the south and Jiujiang in the east ... and the' Jingchu' before the Western Zhou Dynasty mentioned in the literature should be in the Nanyang Basin of Henan to Jianghan Plain." Accordingly, Nanyang is located in the land of Jingchu, thus forming the custom of begging for cleverness.
