1, Cowherd and Weaver Girl

Legend has it that the granddaughter of the ancient Emperor of Heaven, Weaver Girl, was good at weaving, weaving rosy clouds for the sky every day, but she hated this boring life, so she secretly went down to earth, married the cowherd in Hexi privately, and lived a life of farming and weaving. This angered the Emperor of Heaven, took the Weaver Girl back to the Heavenly Palace, and ordered them to separate, allowing them to meet only once a year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Their unswerving love touched magpies, and countless magpies flew in and built a magpie bridge across the Tianhe River with their bodies, so that the cowherd and the weaver girl could meet on the Tianhe River.

2. Legend of White Snake

Legend of the White Snake describes a tortuous love story between a snake spirit who cultivates human form and human beings. Stories include the story of borrowing an umbrella from an awning boat, the story of the White Snake stealing Ganoderma lucidum, the story of flooding Jinshan, the story of broken bridge, the story of Leifeng Tower, and the story of the stone forest sacrifice tower, the son of Xu Xian. It expresses the people's admiration for the free love between men and women and their hatred for the unreasonable bondage of feudal forces.

3. Meng Jiangnv is crying at the Great Wall.

According to legend, during the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shihuang recruited 800,000 migrant workers to build the Great Wall in Wan Li. On the third day after their marriage, Fan Xiliang was forced to start building the Great Wall, and undertook heavy work. Soon after, he died of hunger, cold and fatigue, and his bones were buried under the Great Wall. Meng Jiangnv, who is far away from home, hasn't heard from her husband for a long time. In late autumn, Meng Jiangnu sewed cotton-padded clothes and brought them to her husband. After many hardships, she came to the Great Wall and got the bad news of her husband's death. Meng Jiangnv cried on the Great Wall for three days and nights. Suddenly, the Great Wall collapsed, revealing Fan Xiliang's bones, and the poor couple finally met.

4. Liang Zhu

At the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Zhu Yingtai (Betty Loh Ti), a young lady from a big family, longed to go to Hang Cheng to study, but her father refused, so that Yingtai tea did not want to be eaten, and she became unhappy. Not long after, Yingtai came up with a clever plan, pretending to be a doctor to explain the cause of the young lady, and finally asked her father to nod. On the way to school, Yingtai pretends to be a man and happens to meet the charming Liang Shanbo (Ling Bo). Two people talk about speculation and travel together.

After three years of classmates, Yingtai and Shanbo became friends and had deep feelings. In the process of getting along, Yingtai gradually fell in love with Shanbo. Because of my helplessness, I can't bear to tell the truth. One day, Yingtai asked for leave for her father to return to China, thus staged a classic drama of eighteen gifts. Despite this temptation and hint, the silly heart failed to know what it meant, and a farewell became forever.

5, kuafu day by day

His walking stick was left on the ground, and then a peach grove grew.
