Three hundred years ago, the maohou or "hairy monkeys" quickly became much loved by the people in Beijing. How did somebody come up with them?
The story(go) that the shopkeeper of a Chinese medicine shop was often seen shouting at his employees. One evening an apprentice was tidying up the ingredients(原料)(use) to make Chinese medicines in the shop. To pass the time, he found (he) making a little figure out of the feathery flowers and the head and legs of a cicada's (蝉)skin. The apprentice showed it to his colleagues, (joke) that it looked like their bad-tempered boss.
The little creature became such hit that they started making more figures. Thus, Beijing's unbelievable craft of "hairy monkey" making (bear).
Nowadays," hairy monkeys" are the most popular children's gifts on the market in Beijing. Mass-produced toys (most) reduced demand for handmade figures. But that's not to say that the maohou have completely died out. Walk among the (seller) and giant teddy bear stands of today's temple fairs in Beijing, you might still find a few places selling "hairy monkeys". They are without doubt one of the city's most amazing crafts.
