牛郎织女(二)Cowherd and Weaving Girl(二)
The family lived moderately but peacefully and happily until the girl's celestial royal family found her missing and traced her to the village. By the way, it is popularly believed that a day in heaven accounts for years on the earth. The years she had spent with the Cowherd was but a day or so by the celestial calendar.
但是天庭终于知道了织女私自下界的事情，并且很快就在一个小村庄里找到了牛郎和织女。但是，"天上一天，地上一年"，这时候织女已经和牛郎生活了一年多了。
The Celestial Empress was in such a wrath that she gave her daughter only two choices: to go back home or see her husband and children destroyed. She had but to leave.
王母暴跳如雷，她给了织女两条路：离开人间或者眼看着丈夫和孩子被杀。织女无奈，指的选择离开。
The old buffalo suddenly began to speak to the bereaved and now astonished young man, saying that he was dying in no time and asking him to use his hide as a vehicle to catch up with his wife. And off he sailed to heaven taking his young son and daughter in two baskets carried by a shoulder pole.
这是，老牛突然开口对悲痛欲绝的牛郎说话了，牛郎大吃一惊。老牛告诉牛郎说它马上就要死了，它死后牛郎可以剥下它的皮，然后踩着它去追织女。于是牛郎把一双儿女放在两个筐里，用一根扁担挑着去追妻子。
Fearing that the young man would catch up, the empress took out her hair spin and drew a big river across the sky, known to the Chinese as the Silvery River (the Milky Way in the West). She wanted to separate the family forever.
王母害怕牛郎追上织女，于是就拔下头上的簪子，在天空中划出了一条大河，就是后来的银河，她想用这条河把牛郎一家永远拆散。
However, all the magpies in the world, deeply touched by the story, came to their rescue. Each year, on the seventh day of the seventh month, they would flock together to form a bridge so that the family may enjoy a brief reunion.
牛郎织女的故事感动了人间的喜鹊，于是所有的喜鹊都赶来帮助这对夫妇。每年的七月初七，喜鹊们就会搭成一座桥，让牛郎织女一家人在桥上团聚。
