She felt very sorry for the tragic love between Cowherd and Weaver Girl. So every year on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day, Xiaoqiao would make some exquisite snacks, burn incense and offer them as sacrifices, hoping that Cowherd and Weaver Girl could meet in heaven. The local land god was moved by Xiaoqiao's sincerity and reported the matter to heaven. The Jade Emperor could not pardon the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl due to the rules of heaven, but he was very grateful for Xiaoqiao's kindness, so he asked Yue Lao to help Xiaoqiao find a happy marriage.From then on, Xiaoqiao and her beloved stayed together for the rest of their lives. The couple never left each other and lived in harmony, which was envied by everyone. Many girls also learned from Xiaoqiao and made small snacks of various shapes on the Chinese Valentine's Day every year, praying for a happy marriage and a happy life. This kind of snack is also called "Qiaoguo" and has been passed down to this day. |
