The ancient people were more superstitious and believed that it was unlucky to be born on the Qixi Festival because the number seven was not good. From ancient times, funerals always focused on the number seven, which means that after death, the soul will be in the number seven. Going home on the seventh day, July is also called the ghost month. It is said that the gate of ghosts opens on the first day of July and does not close until the thirtieth of July. If a woman is born on Chinese Valentine's Day, it will be even more unlucky. ?
Wang Xifeng and Qiaojie, who was born on the Chinese Valentine's Day, are both characters in the Dream of Red Mansions written by Cao Xueqin. Chinese Valentine's Day is Valentine's Day, but Cao Xueqin wrote this day as Qiaojie's birthday because Wang Xifeng felt that her daughter's It was a bad birthday, so I never named the child since she was born. It was not until I met Grandma Liu that I named the child Sister Qiao.
Because in Grandma Liu's eyes, Chinese Valentine's Day was originally known as the Qiqiao Festival in folk culture, which is also the day when the legendary Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet. The reason why Wang Xifeng said this day is not good is because It has something to do with the emphasis on the number seven in ancient culture. Grandma Liu knew this, so she came up with the method of using poison to fight poison and named Wang Xifeng's daughter Qiao Jie. It is also based on the word Qiao in the Qiao Qiao Festival. ?
Wang Xifeng said that Sister Qiao, who was born on Qixi Festival, had a bad life. She had often been sick since she was a child, and she didn’t know why. However, in the Dream of Red Mansions, Sister Qiao’s final fate was relatively good, because her Her mother treated Grandma Liu kindly and planted a good relationship, so after the family fell, Grandma Liu's family rescued her, and finally married Grandma Liu's grandson Ban'er. Although she lived in the wilderness and had to weave to make a living every day, It is completely different from the luxurious and wealthy life of the past. But compared with those eldest aunts who had never experienced warmth in the palace all their lives, and the third aunt who betrayed her and married far away to a barbarian land, and her mother who died tragically, they were already much luckier.
