  Madam Liu sat under the veranda, narrowing her charming phoenix eyes, using a slender silver spoon to scoop up sunflower seeds and teasing the green parrot on its perch into speaking. Every time the parrot said: "Peonies are the most lovely." She would reward it with a sunflower seed, saying in a gentle tone: "Fang Fang is really clever."

  Shake Shake skillfully spat out the melon rind, swallowed the melon seeds, and scratched the horizontal bar under his feet with his claws. He walked sideways for two steps, and complacently said: "Shake Shake is really clever."

  "Right, Shuai is indeed clever."

  "Madam, its time for your afternoon nap." A maid with a pink green sleeve and a silver red high-waisted skirt, round face and big eyes, came over, giggling and making a face at Fling, pretending to go after her.

  She was already over ten years old and had become a clever and mischievous little girl, not afraid of anything. In a strange tone, she called out: "Dead lotus flower!" The tone was exactly the same as that of another maid named Yutong, who stood beside Peony, but with a softer and more delicate voice, which made it sound even funnier when paired with Fashas strange tone.

  Yu He didnt laugh out loud as usual, but instead glanced secretly at Peony. Peonys face was expressionless, she stood up and handed the silver spoon in her hand to Xiao Er, who was standing beside her, smoothed out the pomegranate-red eight-piece Luo skirt on her body, and turned around to walk inside.

  Yu He glared at her and scolded in a low voice, "Stupid bird! From now on, dont dare to show that face to Yu Tong again. Otherwise, I wont give you rice to eat!" Without caring whether or not she understood, she picked up her skirt and quickly chased after Peonys direction.

  "Madam..." Rain He just shouted, and was scared to shut up by the tall figure at the end of the corridor. She stood up straight with the fastest speed, her hands stuck to her legs, and loudly shouted in a voice that Peony Iron could hear: "Master!"

  Liu Chong brushed off the exquisite, dark purple, round-collared brocade robe with intricate floral patterns on his body, murmured a soft "hmm", and walked slowly to the front of Peonys room with his hands behind his back and head held high. Rain Lotus hastily stepped forward, lifted the delicate Xiangfei bamboo screen, and invited the master to enter.

  Liu Changs eyes, which seemed slightly gloomy, swept around the quiet room and said, "Is the young mistress taking a nap again?"

  Yu He carefully presented the tea, nodding and bowing slightly, saying: "Yes, young madam got up early this morning and felt a bit dizzy."

  Liu Changs dense and straight eyebrows slightly raised, "Have you invited a doctor?"

  It seems that today his temper is unusually good, Yuhe feels a bit uneasy: "The young lady said its an old illness, lying down for a while will be fine, no need to bother the doctor."

  Liu Chang did not respond, suddenly lifted his foot and walked in: "You step down."

  Yu He saw his movements and was startled, the smile on her face became even more charming: "Master Gong, Ill help you roll up the curtains."

  Liu Chuan coldly swept her with a glance and stiffly spat out from between his thin lips: "Get down!"

  The smile on Yuhes face suddenly disappeared, and she lowered her head and backed out.

  Liu Chang stood outside the curtain, looking through the crystal curtain at the wide and spacious purple sandalwood moon gate bed frame. The cherry-red gauze hanging above it was already half old, with golden inlaid jade phoenix hooks shining among them. The pink satin quilt was spread neatly and tidily, but no one was seen sleeping on it.

  Liu Chang furrowed his brow and cast his gaze onto the beautiful daybed by the window, which was bathed in the warm sunlight of spring.

  The fruit saw a red long skirt hanging down from the couch, with a delicate and elegant appearance. The peony was leaning on the couch, covering its face with a white silk fan to block out the sunlight, while the purple tassels on the ivory fan handle flowed down, covering more than half of her slender neck, making it look even whiter and smoother, like frozen cream, making people want to gently touch it.

  Liu Chuans Adams apple moved slightly, and he couldnt help but shift his gaze to the small jacket with white peonies embroidered on it that Mudan was wearing. The pure white peonies had golden yellow stamens, embroidered on the front, one on each side, and the stamens shone brightly in the sunlight, eerily attracting peoples attention.

  Liu Chang stood outside the curtain and coughed softly, but Peony didnt move at all.

  "Peony!" Liu Chuan lifted the curtain and walked in with big strides, the crystal curtain behind him making a crisp and pleasant sound.

  Its been a long time since Peony responded, and Liu Chongs eyes welled up with anger. He forced himself to calm down and said, "Youre saying youre not feeling well again, what are you doing lying around like this? Get up and go to bed, be careful or your illness will get worse and the whole house will be in an uproar."

  The dense and long eyelashes under the silk fan quivered slightly, a hint of sarcastic smile playing on the lips. Slender fingers took down the silk fan covering her face, slowly sat up, and a warm and gentle expression appeared: "Is there something, husband?"

  She stood with her back to the light, her eyes narrowed slightly, her lips a deep red and still bearing the remnants of sleepiness, her demeanor languid and enchanting. Liu Chuans heart skipped a beat uncontrollably as he opened his mouth to say, "Cant I come over if nothings wrong?"

  His tone was softer than ever before, and Peony was slightly surprised. She lowered her eyes, got up and walked to the window, gazing at the large pot of purple flowers outside that were in full bloom. She said softly: "Let someone come and take it away. As long as no one is allowed to wear it, even if its just for a night, it doesnt matter."

  Liu Chang was seen through by her at a glance, and she was somewhat annoyed and ashamed. The emotions that had just calmed down were ignited again. He coldly smiled at her: "Yu Tong is pregnant."

  "Ah, this is a great joy! Ill report to the mistress and increase her monthly allowance. Ill also assign another servant to attend to her. Will that be enough?"

  Liu Chuan stared at her intently, trying to find a crack in her exquisite and beautiful face, seeing through the panic and suffering she was hiding, disappointment and sorrow.

  But Peony simply stroked her face, smiling at him: "Is there a flower on my face? Or do you think the jade hairpin on my forehead is novel and unique? Oh, I see, Yuer saw it the other day and said she wanted you to buy one for her. Its at Fuxin Tang on Dongzheng Street, two taels of silver per piece, but this color must be sold out."

  She spoke casually and calmly, as if chatting with a close sister, without any signs of panic or distress. Liu Chuan suddenly felt deflated. He couldnt understand why she had changed so much after recovering from her illness. She didnt argue or fight, nor did she show any jealousy or hatred. Even when he took away her most trusted Rain Tong, she didnt show any abnormal behavior and accepted it very calmly, which made him feel a bit ashamed.

  Liu Changs expression changed several times, and she smiled slightly: "Its not the flowers on your face, nor is it the elegant hairpin, but you yourself are a peony flower." He walked over with big strides and gently stroked Peonys face.

  His fingers were icy, with a strong scent of incense, and the peonys charming phoenix eyes flashed with disgust. However, she didnt move, slightly tilting her chin upwards, smiling at him: "I was originally called Peony anyway, husband mistakenly thought so, nothing special."

  Peony is just a nickname, her actual name is He Weifang, but it means the same thing, "the only one in the world, all fragrances are peonies." Mr. He treats her as a treasure and thinks that no other name can match her, only the king of flowers, Peony, can match her. But he also feels that using Peony directly as her formal name is not elegant and grand enough, so he came up with Weifang as her formal name, but privately, everyone in the family still calls her by her nickname Peony.

  The cow chewed the peony, and when the peony spoke like this, Liu Chongs mind suddenly flashed back to the word she had ridiculed him with. He paused for a moment, withdrew his hand, remained silent for a while, and still made up his mind: "You have recently gained my favor, tonight I will rest here."

  Does he really think hes a monarch gracing us with his presence? The peony lowered its head, hiding the disdain and panic in its eyes: "Im afraid it wont work."

  "Not wanting is one thing, being refused is another. Liu Chong sneered: Not possible? Youve been married to me for a year and still havent produced an heir, now youre refusing to share a bed with me, dont you want the Liu family to be left without descendants?"

  "Peony blinked reluctantly: Husband, why be so angry? Im not unwilling to serve you, just that my body is not convenient."

  Liu Chang glared at her, she calmly stared back at him, continuing to play the victim: "Youre being so serious, whats with this cutting off descendants nonsense? Isnt Qier your daughter? If Biyu finds out, shell cry and make a fuss again."

  Whats the big deal? Liu Chuan swallowed his words, let out a cold snort, and turned to leave, tossing back a sentence: "Tomorrow Ill be hosting a banquet at my place, dress up nicely and get up early!"

  The peony did not respond to him.

  He rushed out of the curtain, couldnt help but turn his head back to take a look, and saw that Peony had already turned her back on him. Her slender figure was bent over by the window, her hand reaching out to touch the largest flower in the pot of purple peonies. The pot was some distance from the window, she couldnt reach it, so she lifted one foot up, stretching as far as she could. Her small, delicate soft-soled embroidered shoes were a bit too big for her, and after swaying back and forth several times, they finally fell to the ground with a soft thud. The white satin shoe surface was embroidered with large red peonies, and the pearl pendant on the toe sparkled brightly.

  Liu Changs heart suddenly softened. This pearl was a gift he had casually tossed to her in the second year after she got married, when she was 15 and had just reached adulthood. He hadnt expected her to still have it, and to have hung it from her shoe tip. He couldnt be bothered to get angry, and instead walked up behind her and said softly, "What do you want to do? Ill help you."

  At that moment, he thought that even if she had maliciously picked the largest flower and opposed him, leaving no flowers for him to appreciate tomorrow and ruining the guests mood, he would have accepted it.

  Peony turned around in surprise, her eyes wide with wonder: "What else do you want to borrow?"

  Liu Changs face turned black again, and the gentle affection that had just surged up was suddenly poured out clean, transforming into a raging fire. He sneered: "Borrow? Do I need to borrow from you? Even you are mine, do I need to borrow from you? You dont know how high the sky is or how thick the earth is, and yet you still want me to spare your face? Later, Ill have someone come to take away all these flowers - not just this pot, but also that Yao Huang, Yu Lou Dian Cui, Zi Pao Jin Dai, and Yao Tai Yu Lu!"

  The peony didnt say anything, quietly looking at Liu Chuan.

  He Mu Dan was crazy about peonies, so the He family brought 24 pots of precious peonies as dowry. Now they are all in her courtyard, taken care of by a special person, and have become one of the necessary props for the Liu family to entertain guests on spring days. Especially these few pots with auspicious names, almost every year must be dotted with flowers.

  The look in Peonys eyes reminded Liu of the past and why he had married her. He angrily raised his hand, and this time Peony was really frightened, quickly observing the surroundings, calculating the best escape route, shrinking back a bit, stuttering: "Y-you... what do you want to do? If you dare touch me with one finger, I... I will..."
