The Legend of the Smiling Flower

According to legend, there was a loving young couple, Yang Naicai and Li Xiuying, in Lin'an Mansion in the Song Dynasty. The two were good at poetry and painting, and they were very much in love. But soon, the Yuan army invaded Lin'an. When the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, Yang Naicai, facing the separation of life and death, picked up his wife's dressing mirror, smashed it into several pieces, and let his wife and himself each take half. He said to Li Xiuying: With your talent and appearance, you will definitely be sent to a powerful family. You must live a good life. If I am lucky enough to survive, I will go to the market on the 15th of every month to sell broken lenses in the hope of reuniting them.

As Yang Naicai expected, Li Xiuying was sent to the residence of Minister Wang Bochao and became Wang Bochao's favorite concubine. But she missed Yang Naicai day and night. On the fifteenth day of every month, Li Xiuying would send someone to the agreed market to buy mirror fragments. Five years have passed like this, and Yang Naicai and Li Xiuying have gone through all kinds of hardships and finally reunited.

Yang Naicai and Li Xiuying returned to their hometown and lived a loving and peaceful later life among the people. Thirty years later, the 88-year-old couple passed away at the same time on the same day of the same month of the same year. Later, a tree grew on the tomb where they were buried together. The flower it bloomed only bloomed. It looked like a smile, was extremely beautiful, and had an extraordinary fragrance. This was the Smiling Flower.
