Wow! I finally saw grandma's phoenix skirt. Before I saw this gorgeous suit with my own eyes, I always thought it was just an unreachable legend!

A closer look shows that the thin red silk is woven into wavy patterns and covered with a white shirt collar. Around the red silk, there are red, yellow, blue and pink mountain flowers, just like a colorful rainbow ... The waist of the clothes is also inlaid with striped belts, and a large section hangs like a fishtail. The most striking thing is the skirt with a black background.

It suddenly occurred to me that there seems to be a legend, so I hurried to find my grandmother, who was standing on the balcony singing the folk songs of her hometown:

Sanha people, phoenix suit!

She's smart!

Hard-working and simple land has a kind heart!

Grandma and mom are both children of She nationality, which is a minority with its own unique language and skills. I hid behind the curtain and listened quietly. Although I couldn't understand what grandma was singing at that time, the melody was so beautiful. For a time, it was loud and passionate. At present, it seems that the children of farmers are playing, and then it seems to see the scene of farmers picking tea up the mountain. My grandmother often sings like this. Whether busy or idle, she can always sing what she wants to say, and it is always available at hand, which makes me envious.

Later, my grandmother told me the story of Phoenix Dress: It is said that a long time ago, the ancestors of the She nationality made outstanding achievements, so the emperor married his daughter Yincui gorge. On the wedding day, the queen brought her a noble rockhopper and a jewel-encrusted phoenix dress, wishing her as brave and happy as a phoenix! After Yincui gorge had a daughter, she was also dressed as beautiful as a phoenix. When her daughter got married, a group of phoenixes flew from Phoenix Mountain with a beautiful dress with a pattern of phoenixes in their mouths. Therefore, the daughter of She family had the custom of wearing phoenixes.

After listening to this ancient and mysterious story, I am also looking forward to growing up quickly. When I grow up, I can put on that beautiful phoenix suit. This is our She nationality's "heirloom" phoenix costume, which embodies her children's yearning for nature and the pursuit of a better life.
