In a small town in Denmark, there was a young gardener named Hans. Every day, Hans took great care of the garden in the nobleman's manor in the town. The garden was full of blooming flowers, and each flower was the result of Hans' painstaking efforts. The owner of the manor was a noble lord, and he had a beautiful daughter named Alicia. Alicia liked to take walks in the garden very much and was always attracted by those blooming flowers.
Hans was of low status, but he was kind - hearted and full of enthusiasm. Every time Alicia strolled in the garden, Hans would quietly hide aside. He thought Alicia was like the most beautiful flower in the garden. Hans' feelings for Alicia grew slowly in his heart, but he knew that they were of different social statuses, so he could only keep this love silently in his heart.
One day, Alicia accidentally fell on the path in the garden. Hans rushed over to help her up immediately. When Alicia saw Hans' sincere eyes, she had a special feeling in her heart. Since then, they began to have a few words of conversation occasionally. Hans would tell Alicia the stories behind each flower, and Alicia was always fascinated.

As time went by, Hans' feelings for Alicia grew deeper and deeper. He decided to summon up the courage to express his love to Alicia. On a sunny morning, Hans carefully selected the most beautiful bouquet of flowers. He waited in the garden for Alicia to appear. When Alicia showed up, Hans walked nervously to her, stammered as he handed her the flowers, and confessed his love. Alicia was a little surprised at first, after all, there was a big gap between their social statuses.
But Hans' sincerity touched her. She saw pure love in Hans' eyes. Alicia accepted Hans' flowers and told Hans that she also had special feelings for him. After this news spread in the manor, it caused a great stir. The noble lord firmly opposed their being together. He thought how could a gardener be worthy of his daughter.

Alicia did not give up because of her father's opposition. She had a fierce argument with her father. She told her father that Hans was a kind, hard - working and loving person. She said that she didn't care about social status and just wanted to be with Hans. Seeing his daughter so determined, the noble lord was a little shaken in his heart.
And Hans also lived up to Alicia's love. He worked even harder. With his own hands, he made the garden more beautiful. His diligence and love for the garden made the others in the manor also begin to look at him with new eyes.

Finally, the noble lord was touched by Hans' sincerity and Alicia's persistence. He agreed to their marriage. Hans and Alicia held a grand wedding in the beautiful garden. Since then, they have lived happily together. Hans continued to take good care of the garden, and Alicia stayed by his side. Their love story has become a beautiful talk among the people in the small town.
