The original text of Ailian Shuo is a flower of land and water vegetation, and its loveliness is rare. Tao Jinyuan clearly loves chrysanthemums. Since Li Tang came, people all over the world have loved peonies. Love lotus alone, dirt-free, clear but not demon. Straight outside, not crawling, fragrant and clear. It is slim and elegant, so you can look at it from a distance without looking ridiculous. (I love a work very much: making love)
Want to call chrysanthemum, the hermit of flowers; Peony, blooming with wealth; Lotus, the gentleman of flowers. Hey! The love between chrysanthemums and flowers is rarely heard after Tao. Who gave the lotus love? Peony love is suitable for many people.
All kinds of aquatic and terrestrial herbs and woody flowers are worthy of love. Tao Yuanming of Jin Dynasty only loved chrysanthemums. Since Li in Tang Dynasty, people all over the world have loved peony very much. But I only like the lotus growing in the soil, which is not polluted, but it doesn't look enchanting after being washed with clear water. Its stem is hollow inside and straight outside, without vines and branches. When it is planted far away, it smells more fragrant and stands straight and clean in the water. People can only look at it from a distance and can't play with it.
I think chrysanthemum is a hermit in flowers; Peony is a rich person in flowers; Lotus is a noble flower. Alas! Tao Yuanming seldom heard about the love of chrysanthemum after that. Who else likes lotus as much as I do? Of course, there are many people who love peony!
