That morning, Venus, the beauty god, woke up early, carefully groomed and dressed up, put on a satin dress, dazzling jewellery, and brought her baby son Cupid, Xing Rushing into the garden. At this time, many gods had already arrived, and everyone gathered in a circle, and I wondered what they were enjoying with admiration. Even when the beautiful Venus came, no one could care to greet her.
