this story contains a matriarchal society of the core values, is the maternal family rearing children, her husband only from time to timeto reunite with his wife and children. It has a long history.
相传天上有个织女星，还有一个牵牛星。织女和牵牛情投意合，心心相印。可是，天条律令是不允许男欢女爱、私自相恋的。织女是玉帝与瑶姬的女儿，王母便将牵牛贬下凡尘了，令织女不停地织云锦以作惩罚。
织女的工作，便是用了一种神奇的丝在织布机上织出层层叠叠的美丽的云彩，随着时间和季节的不同而变幻它们的颜色，这就是“天衣”。自从牵牛被贬之后，织女常常以泪洗面，愁眉不展地思念牵牛。她坐在织机旁不停地织着美丽的云锦以期博得王母大发慈心，让牵牛早日返回天界。
一天，几个仙女向王母恳求想去人间碧莲池一游，王母今日心情正好，便答应了她们。她们见织女终日苦闷，便一起向王母求情让织女共同前往，王母也心疼受惩后的孙女，便令她们速去速归。
话说牵牛被贬之后，落生在一个农民家中，取名叫牛郎。后来父母去世，他便跟着哥嫂度日。哥嫂待牛郎非常刻薄，要与他分家，只给了他一头老牛和一辆破车，其他的都被哥哥嫂嫂独占了。然后，便和牛郎分家了。
从此，牛郎和老牛相依为命，他们在荒地上披荆斩棘，耕田种地，盖造房屋。一两年后，他们营造成一个小小的家，勉强可以糊口度日。可是，除了那只不会说话的老牛而外，冷清清的家只有牛郎一个人，日子过得相当寂寞。牛郎并不知道，那条老牛原是天上的金牛星。
这一天，老牛突然开口说话了，它对牛郎说：“牛郎，今天你去碧莲池一趟，那儿有些仙女在洗澡，你把那件红色的仙衣藏起来，穿红仙衣的仙女就会成为你的妻子。”牛郎见老牛口吐人言，又奇怪又高兴，便问道：“牛大哥，你真会说话吗?你说的是真的吗?”老牛点了点头，牛郎便悄悄躲在碧莲池旁的芦苇里，等候仙女们的来临。不一会儿，仙女们果然翩翩飘至，脱下轻罗衣裳，纵身跃入清流。牛郎便从芦苇里跑出来，拿走了红色的仙衣。仙女们见有人来了，忙乱纷纷地穿上自己的衣裳，像飞鸟般地飞走了，只剩下没有衣服无法逃走的仙女，她正是织女。织女见自己的仙衣被一个小伙子抢走，又羞又急，却又无可奈何。这时，牛郎走上前来，对她说，要她答应做他妻子，他才能还给她的衣裳。织女定睛一看，才知道牛郎便是自己日思夜想的牵牛，便含羞答应了他。这样，织女便做了牛郎的妻子。
他们结婚以后，男耕女织，相亲相爱，日子过得非常美满幸福。不久，他们生下了一儿一女，十分可爱。牛郎织女满以为能够终身相守，白头到老。可是，王母知道这件事后，勃然大怒，马上派遣天神将织女捉回天庭问罪。这一天，织女正在做饭，下地去的牛郎匆匆赶回，眼睛红肿着告诉织女：“牛大哥死了，他临死前说，要我在他死后，将他的牛皮剥下放好，有朝一日，披上它，就可飞上天去。”织女一听，心中纳闷，她明白，老牛就是天上的金牛星，只因替被贬下凡的牵牛说了几句公道话，也贬下天庭。它怎么会突然死去呢?织女便让牛郎剥下牛皮，好好埋葬了老牛。
正在这时，天空狂风大作，天兵天将从天而降，不容分说，押解着织女便飞上了天空。正飞着、飞着，织女听到了牛郎的声音：“织女，等等我!”织女回头一看，只见牛郎用一对箩筐，挑着两个儿女，披着牛皮赶来了。慢慢地，他们之间的距离越来越近了，织女可以看清儿女们可爱的模样，孩子们了都张开双臂，大声呼叫着“妈妈”，眼看，牛郎和织女就要相逢了。可就在这时，王母驾着祥云赶来了，她拔下她头上的金簪，往他们中间一划，霎时间，一条天河波涛滚滚地横在了织女和牛郎之间，无法横越了。
织女望着天河对岸的牛郎和儿女们，直哭得声嘶力竭，牛郎和孩子也哭得死去活来。他们的哭声，孩子们一声声“妈妈”的喊声，是那样揪心裂胆，催人泪下，连在旁观望的仙女、天神们都觉得心酸难过，于心不忍。王母见此情此景，也稍稍为牛郎织女的坚贞爱情所感动，便同意让牛郎和孩子们留在天上，每年七月七日，让他们相会一次。从此，牛郎和他的儿女就住在了天上，隔着一条天河，和织女遥遥相望。在秋夜天空的繁星当中，我们至今还可以看见银河两边有两颗较大的星星，晶莹地闪烁着，那便是织女星和牵牛星。和牵牛星在一起的还有两颗小星星，那便是牛郎织女的一儿一女。
牛郎织女相会的七月七日，无数成群的喜鹊飞来为他们搭桥。鹊桥之上，牛郎织女团聚了!织女和牛郎深情相对，搂抱着他们的儿女，有无数的话儿要说，有无尽的情意要倾诉啊!
后来，每到农历七月初七，相传牛郎织女鹊桥相会的日子，姑娘们就会来到花前月下，抬头仰望星空，寻找银河两边的牛郎星和织女星，希望能看到他们一年一度的相会，乞求上天能让自己能象织女那样心灵手巧，祈祷自己能有如意称心的美满婚姻和美丽的爱情，由此形成了七夕节。(牛郎织女一年一相会，天上一天，地下一年，所以牛郎织女天天相会)
