In ancient times, there was a family living at the foot of a mountain called Jianshan in Henan, which was said to be a home. In fact, Liu Qiaoyan lived alone. Why? Because she did not have children in her in-laws for six years, and later the man passed away due to illness, her in-laws and her brother and sister-in-law were kicked out. In order to take care of her in-laws, she had to build a thatched hut here to house her in-laws.

From then on, she was like a man going up the mountain to hunt to support her in-laws. Many people advised her to leave her in-laws and remarry, but because she couldn't have children, and her in-laws couldn't live without her, she gave up that idea. In fact, she was only twenty-five years old at that time.

Once, Liu Qiaoyan went up the mountain to hunt and went home as usual. As she was halfway up the mountain, she heard a "whining" sound. She followed the sound and found a cave.

The next day, Liu Qiaoyan went up the mountain again to give him food. When the little wolf cub saw her, it was like seeing a life-saving straw. Liu Qiaoyan's eyes also showed the warmth of motherly love.

Liu Qiaoyan also thought about taking the wolf cub home to raise him, but she was afraid to scare her in-laws. After all, it was a wolf cub. In this way, Liu Qiaoyan came to the mountains every day to see him and bring him all kinds of food.

A few months later, the little wolf cub grew up and could forage for food by itself. Every time Liu Qiaoyan came up the mountain, the little wolf cub would run to her side to make out with her for a while, and sometimes bring some wild things like pheasants and rabbits to Liu Qiaoyan. With his company, Liu Qiaoyan also felt that life was much more interesting.

Three years later, in the spring, Liu Qiaoyan's in-laws also died, leaving her alone. She still goes up the mountain every day, sometimes just to play with the wolf cubs for a while.

On this day, Liu Qiaoyan suddenly fell ill, and a poisonous sore grew on her shoulder, which grew bigger and bigger. She didn't go up the mountain for more than ten days. The little wolf couldn't wait for her, so he went down the mountain to find her house.

Liu Qiaoyan saw the little wolf coming and said to it, "Little wolf, are you in a hurry? I'm sick, thank you for coming to see me."

As if the little wolf wanted to understand, she lay by the bed in tears, trying to lift the quilt to see what disease she had. Liu Qiaoyan lifted the quilt to show it. After the little wolf read it, he left silently in tears.

After a while, I saw that he came back with a bunch of flowers in his mouth, some yellow and some silver, and put them directly into the pot.

"Are you asking me to boil water with this flower?" The little wolf nodded.

Liu Qiaoyan struggled to get out of bed and boiled the flowers brought by the little wolf into water to drink. After drinking, she felt much more comfortable.

The next day, the little wolf brought more yellow and silver flowers. This time, Liu Qiaoyan didn't finish cooking them all, and there were some left. The little wolf put the remaining flowers on the chopping board and motioned for Liu Qiaoyan to break them.

The little wolf nodded again, and Liu Qiaoyan broke it and applied it to the wound.

After several days in a row, the little wolf brought her a lot of flowers every day. Liu Qiaoyan used these flowers to boil water and drink it, then mashed it and applied it to the wound. After a few days, the poison sore on Liu Qiaoyan's shoulder miraculously healed, and she could go up the mountain to find the little wolf to play with again. Liu Qiaoyan thought that this flower was amazing and could detoxify, so when she went up the mountain again, she picked some and put them at home, often used it to boil water and drink, and never got sick again. Because this flower bloomed in February, she called it the "February flower."

Only later did people know it was the legendary "honeysuckle."
