In an ancient and mysterious village, there lives a couple. Her husband's name is Li Yi, a hard-working and honest farmer, he is tall and has an ordinary face, but his eyes always shine with love and satisfaction for life. And his wife, on the other hand, is in stark contrast to him. Her name is Yun Niang, her face is ugly, her skin is dark, and her body is thin, and the children in the village will avoid her far away when they see her, and they all call her "ugly wife" behind their backs.
However, Li Yi has a deep affection for Yun Niang, he never dislikes her appearance, but cherishes her kindness and diligence even more. The two of them are in love with each other, and they jointly manage a few acres of thin fields at home, although the days are poor, but they are also full of warmth and sweetness.
One day, Li Yi discovered a strange thing. He found that his wife, Yun Niang, would go alone to the abandoned garden outside the village when night fell. The garden was once full of flowers, but now it is overgrown with weeds and has long since lost its former vitality. However, whenever Yun Niang leaves, there will always be a strange aroma in the garden, as if something magical is happening.
Li Yi curiously followed Yun Niang to the garden. I saw that under the moonlight, Yun Niang was dressed in white, like a fairy, gently waving the flower seeds in her hand in the garden, and every seed fell on the ground, instantly taking root and sprouting, blooming beautiful flowers. The flowers swayed in the moonlight, giving off a mesmerizing fragrance that seemed to give the whole garden a new lease of life.
Li Yi looked at all this in amazement, he couldn't believe his eyes. He stepped forward and took Yun Niang's hand and asked, "Lady, what are you doing here, how can these flowers be so magical?"
Yun Niang turned her head, her eyes flashed with a mysterious light, she smiled lightly, and said, "This is my ancestral secret technique, called 'Yuehua Flower Seed'. As long as you plant it with your heart, every seed can bloom into the most beautiful flowers. Moreover, these flowers can also absorb the essence of moonlight, nourishing the body and soul. ”
Li Yi was even more surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect his wife to have such a magical secret technique. His heart was full of gratitude and admiration, and at the same time, he also developed a deeper love for Yun Niang.
As the days passed, Li Yi found that his body was getting younger and younger, as if he had returned to the state of his youth. His skin became smooth and delicate, wrinkles gradually disappeared, and the whole person looked refreshed and full of vitality. And all these changes are thanks to the magical effect brought by Yun Niang's night planting flowers.
The people in the village also began to notice the change in Li Yi, and they came to ask why. Li Yi just smiled and said nothing, he knew that all this was the credit of Yun Niang, and he didn't want outsiders to know this secret.
However, there is no such thing as an impermeable wall. One day, when a grandmother in the village was passing by the garden, she accidentally saw Yun Niang planting flowers. Her eyes widened in surprise, as if she had seen something incredible. She quietly approached Yun Niang and asked in a low voice, "Girl, what are you doing here, why is your husband getting younger and younger?"
Yun Niang raised her head and looked at Grandma's curious and surprised eyes, she smiled slightly and said, "Grandma, this is my secret technique." I nourished my husband with the 'Moonflower Seed' and rejuvenated him. However, I can't tell anyone this secret. ”
Grandma nodded after hearing this, she looked at Yun Niang's firm and gentle eyes, and her heart was full of admiration and emotion. She gently patted the back of Yun Niang's hand and said, "Girl, you are a good wife." But you have to remember that this secret cannot be freely divulged to outsiders. Otherwise, it will cause endless trouble for you and your husband. ”
Yun Niang nodded, she looked at Grandma gratefully, her heart was full of gratitude and respect. She knew that Grandma was a wise and knowledgeable person, and her words would definitely help her. So she cherished this secret even more, and took care of the garden and her husband's body with her heart.
However, fate is always full of variables. Just when Yun Niang thought that she could keep this secret forever, a sudden change broke her peaceful life...... It was on that sunny afternoon that a group of strangers came to the village. Dressed in gorgeous clothes and riding tall horses, they caused quite a stir in the village. This group of people claimed to be envoys from the palace, and at the behest of the emperor, they came to find a woman with magical secret arts, hoping that she could enter the palace to serve the emperor.
The news spread like the wind throughout the village, and people were talking about who the mysterious woman really was. And Li Yi and Yun Niang also heard the news, and their hearts were full of uneasiness and worry.
Yun Niang knew that once her secret skills were exposed, it would inevitably lead to countless troubles and dangers. She didn't want to upset her husband and the villagers because of her secret. So, she decided to face these messengers alone, trying not to let them discover their true identities.
However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people. Just as Yun Niang was about to leave the house, the group of messengers suddenly broke into her home. After they saw Yun Niang's ugly appearance, they all showed disappointed expressions. However, when they saw Li Yi's young and energetic face, a greedy glint flashed in their eyes again.
The envoys circled around Li Yi a few times and looked at him carefully. They were amazed to find that this seemingly ordinary farmer had such a youthful face. Their hearts moved, and they began to wonder if Li Yi's youth was related to Yun Niang's secret technique.
So, the envoys began to ask Yun Niang about the secret arts. Yun Niang knew something was wrong, but she still remained calm and composed. She skillfully dodged the emissaries' questions, trying to divert their attention. However, the envoys were not fooled, and they began to threaten Yun Niang, saying that they would take her to the palace to meet the emperor.
When Yun Niang heard this, she panicked in her heart. She knew that once she was brought to the palace, she would never be free again. She didn't want to lose her husband and home, and she didn't want to be a plaything in the palace. So, she decided to take a risk and reveal her secret to the messengers.
Yun Niang took a deep breath, and then slowly spoke, "I do possess a secret technique that can make flowers bloom in the moonlight. However, this secret technique was not used to please the emperor. It is what I use to nourish my husband and the land. My husband is young because he nourished me and my mystical arts with his love and hard work. If you really want this secret art, then please respect my husband and this land. ”
After listening to Yun Niang's words, the envoys showed shocked expressions. They didn't expect that this ugly woman would have such noble feelings and profound wisdom. They begin to re-examine the purpose and meaning of their trip and realize that they may have done something wrong.
At this moment, Li Yi walked out of the room. After he saw the scene of the confrontation between the envoys and Yun Niang, he felt nervous in his heart. But when he heard Yun Niang's words, his heart was full of gratitude and admiration. He walked over to Yun Niang's side and held her hand tightly.
When the envoys saw this scene, their hearts were moved. They realized that there was a deep affection and tacit understanding between the couple. They are not willing to destroy this beautiful relationship and the happiness of the family. So they decided to give up their greed and arrogance, and respect Yun Niang and Li Yi's choices and decisions.
The envoys apologized to Yun Niang and Li Yi and left the village. They left this mysterious and beautiful place with a deep sense of respect and emotion. And Yun Niang and Li Yi also returned to a calm and happy life. They continue to manage their family's few acres of thin fields and that garden with their hearts, nourishing each other and the land with love and hard work.
And the people of the village also learned a lot from this story. They began to cherish each other's feelings and family happiness more, and created a better future with love and hard work. And the abandoned garden has also been rejuvenated and energetic under the careful care of Yun Niang and Li Yi, and has become the most beautiful scenery in the village.
