The Legend of Mimosa When Yang Yuhuan first entered the palace, he was sad all day because he couldn't see the emperor. One day, she was enjoying flowers in the palace with the ladies-in-waiting, and she accidentally met the mimosa, and the leaves of the mimosa immediately rolled up. The ladies-in-waiting said that it was because of Yang Yuhuan's beauty that Mimosa was ashamed and looked up in shame. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty heard that there was a "beauty who was ashamed of flowers" in the palace, and immediately summoned her and named her the imperial concubine. Since then, "shame on flowers" has become Yang Guifei's exclusive nickname.
It is a wonderful legend that Mimosa helped Yang Guifei win the heart of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, but Mimosa also has a very sad story.
A long time ago, there was a poor man named Han. His sister-in-law often abused him, so she chose to run away from home and wander the Jianghu. He was diligent, but a few years later, the fairy in the sky fell in love with him and came to him in reincarnation. After knowing Han, the fairy Huan hit it off and got married. The couple lead a very sweet life.
However, the good times did not last long. Because Han's sister-in-law was very jealous of them, she tried to destroy the couple and even viciously tried to force her sister-in-law to do menial work for her. One day, my sister-in-law asked Huan to come to her house and let Huan weave baizhang cloth. At this time, the happy childbearing period is coming, but she can't refuse her sister-in-law, so she has to knit. I am busy weaving for my sister-in-law all day long. I didn't expect her to give birth before she finished knitting. Finally, she had to wave to the sky and use the fairy method. Then a group of fairies flew into the room and made a cloth for her ... The cloth was finished before dawn.
Who knows, Han's sister-in-law witnessed everything, but added fuel to the fire and told Han that Huan was a monster. But Han Xin believed it and secretly hacked her to death while she was sleeping.
Later, Han found that Huan was a reincarnation of a fairy, and felt deeply sorry for his wife, ashamed and ashamed. Finally, he died of grief. After Han's death, a grass grew on the tombstone. When the wind blows or someone touches it, the leaves will close and roll up. People say it's because Han turned into a leaf and opened and closed with shame. So people call planting grass "mimosa".
