2. What are the stories and legends about daffodils?

Since Huangdi, three leaders with both virtue and talent have appeared in the Yellow River Basin, namely Yao, Shun and Yu. The legend of daffodils is related to Yao and Shun. According to legend, Emperor Yao had two daughters, Ehuang and Nvying. Emperor Yao married them both to Shun at the same time, making the younger sister the queen and the older sister the consort. However, the two sisters had a very good relationship. After marrying Shun, the three of them were very loving. Later, Shun suddenly passed away during a southern tour, and Ehuang and Nvying both committed suicide in the Xiangjiang River. The deep love between the two sisters moved heaven and earth, and the gods took pity on them and turned the souls of Ehuang and Nvying into daffodils by the Xiangjiang River. From then on, the two became daffodil gods in the twelfth month of the lunar calendar.
