Harry Potter’s Morning Light
Chapter 1943: Egret feather (six)
Chapter 1943 Egret Feather (6)
Georgiana regretted being so "free" just now.
If Giorgioanna is a commoner, then she doesn’t mind using that grandmother’s handkerchief at all. It is said to be “mother-like warmth” at best, but she was brought out for a state visit, so she can’t use this kind of Parisian fashion. The people laughed at the handkerchief.
Before the Tuileries formed the rules, anyone could say that he and the Bonaparte knew each other, or even rushed in when they didn’t know each other very well. A shoe dealer almost broke into Josephine’s room where he was hospitalized. They were driven away.
The craftsmen of the old age know that they can basically make a fortune by making luxury goods if they can serve the royal family, such as Louis Vuitton.
But they are in their own territory and they can drive people away. Now they are in someone else's territory, even if the sales timing of the female trader just now was wrong... In short, if there is a sophisticated lady by her side instead of Alice. Young girl, then she can come forward and stop the female trader.
Marie Antoinette has a lady who can be wrong. When she sends a message to the Duke of Lozan, it means that the queen wants that beautiful feather.
Georgiana doesn't want to make a "pink handkerchief" incident similar to "egret feather".
She never cared much about the maids and regarded them as students.
The skirts worn by the Parisian women were almost unworn. To put it bluntly, they were window screens. She saw it when she ran to a salon to steal food. She was so angry that she almost lost her mind.
From a certain point of view, she also regards herself as a "tutor", who can control the behavior of some people like a bishop.
But looking at her identity at the moment, she is like the thin clothes on a Parisian woman, challenging others' bottom line.
Walking on the long and narrow streets of Rouen in the Middle Ages, she occasionally looked up at the houses upstairs, being alert to see if someone would suddenly drop a bubble of excrement from the window sill to make her sober.
It’s no surprise, there will always be people who can’t understand and will punish her.
Georgina said she was here to go shopping, but she didn’t come to make a big purchase. If she likes a city, she will buy some souvenirs and go back. Those elder brothers from London also bought a lot of luxury goods in Paris, but she has to be careful to avoid being scribbled like a egret feather.
The female dragoon Feigl surprised them when they appeared in front of the female guardians. They probably have never seen such a "tall and mighty" female soldier.
Although the women’s family members are messy, the security is still done in a good manner, as if Georgiana doesn’t have to worry about the “golden rain” coming down from above.
She did not go in one store after another. The three female bosses all hoped that Georgiana could go to her own store. She would not make the same mistake again.
It happened that she passed by a shop selling lacquerware, so she raised her foot and went in.
When she pushed the door to enter, there were other customers inside. The boss heard the doorbell ringing and looked over, showing a surprised expression. Maybe he saw a large group of women behind her.
Georgina walked into this shop and looked around. This lacquerware shop sells shellfish lacquer, ranging from jewelry boxes to dressing tables. The black glossy lacquer surface looks white from a distance. When I approached I found it. It is a pattern of a changing color.
"Do you like it?" Mr. Martin asked.
Georgiana did not answer.
She remembered that Mr. Martin seemed to have the intention of adopting her as an adopted daughter.
"Good afternoon, madam." The female customer said to Georgian.
Georgiana looked at her.
"You may not remember me, I am Barryon's wife." The woman said, perhaps because she was confused when she saw her eyes, the woman explained, "He is the director of the Bank of France."
Georgiana suddenly realized.
"Do you like this kind of lacquerware too?" Mrs. Barryon asked.
Georgiana still did not answer.
Her reaction was a little weird, and everyone around was looking at her.
"I can't just say I like it." Georgiana reluctantly confessed, "I'm afraid I will say this and this thing will be placed in front of me the next day."
Mrs. Barryon and Mr. Martin both laughed.
"But do you like it?" Mrs. Barryon asked.
"Yes, I like it very much." Georgiana said helplessly, "But I like it doesn't mean I want to have it, it's just pure appreciation."
"Thank you, honorable lady." The boss said proudly.
"You're welcome." Georgiana said frankly, "Can I watch it alone for a while?"
So everyone else left, not to disturb her admiring the furniture.
She looked at these pieces of furniture. In fact, there was also a piece of Luodian furniture like this in the palace. She didn’t know how it escaped the looting of the Great Revolution, and it was placed in the corridor.
The suite she had in St. Luke's Palace looked like some kind of improper operation. It would be nice if she had this kind of dressing table in her bedroom.
Reluctantly, she stroked the flower and bird pattern on the dressing table, opened the drawer, and there was a small box inside.
After opening the box, she found a pair of long earrings, which were also made of snails. The surface of the long strip pendant was covered with fine shards of snails. It looked like a galaxy and the earrings were part of gold. She didn't hesitate to do so. Tried it on.
Although she is short, she has a slender neck. Wearing such long earrings does not make her neck short.
"It's so beautiful." The female family members gathered around her and praised her.
Georgina is a little proud, she really likes this pair of earrings.
"We want these earrings." Mr. Martin said.
"I can not……"
"Just treat it as a gift from us." A female boss of the Rouen Chamber of Commerce said, "It suits you well, madam."
"Come on."
"Yes, accept it."
Everyone was there to persuade, and Georgiana took off the earrings.
It is not pure gold because it is not heavy enough.
"How is it made?" Georgiana asked the boss.
"Sandalwood." The boss replied, "After the shape is cut, apply two coats of varnish on the outside, then black paint, and then paste the cut shells on, just like the others."
The boss showed other Luotian furniture, “After the paint dries, apply a coat of varnish and polish it.”
"Sounds complicated." Georgiana said.
"But it's worth it." The boss looked at her and said with some fascination, "Please put on those earrings, I want to see Venus' masterpiece."
"I think you can join our party tonight in Rouen's art gallery." Georgiana accepted the pair of snail earrings and gave it to Alice. "Remember to give him the invitation, you can bring it with you Your family."
"What's your name?" Alice asked.
"Henry Becker." The boss replied.
"Are you British?" Georgiana asked.
"Yes." The boss also replied in English.
"Why are you in France?" Georgiana asked.
"My business is here." The boss asked inexplicably.
"Are you making a home here?" Georgiana asked again.
"You mean marriage, yes, my wife is a local." The boss replied.
"Are you going back to England?" Georgiana asked.
"Sometimes I will go back and have a look." The boss smiled so far away that "I won't go back much after my parents die."
"Is business good here?" She greeted politely.
"You have brought me a good blessing here, and there are many guests." The boss said in French.
The female relatives stood upright, and no one spoke. Obviously, it was not the first time that they participated in this "diplomatic occasion".
After all, is the wife of the big boss, how could she have never seen it in the market?
After being polite with the boss, Georgiana left the shop and walked into the colorful commercial street.
Although she occasionally finds "treasures" like the store behind her, she still doesn't like shopping.
The last time she was in Venice, she also found an antique furniture store with furniture left by the Salt family.
The textile factory family has fallen, although they are one of the few factory owners who can be considered conscientious.
Some people may like this kind of life, but she doesn't like it.
She touched her ear subconsciously. The pierced ears were worn by Severus. He wanted to wear a pair of snowflake earrings with black magic.
Now she is dressing up for another person, although she never thought of that when we first met.
The first French ruler with a sword and sun-tanned made her feel very novel. He was not riding a majestic horse in the oil painting, or he was wearing a golden laurel crown when he was crowned Josephine.
He is like an adventurer, young and fast-moving. When he saw her, he didn't have the kind of love at first sight.
They should have passed by. If it weren't for Hathor, her honeymoon trip would have been over, and now she should be in her apartment in South Kensington.
"You can't forget who you are." She whispered and sighed. In fact, the handkerchiefs used by the civilians will still be needed when wearing micro clothes. She won't be like Marie Antoinette. You only need to use feathers once, and you don’t need them. This is daily life.
Moreover, she will not forget her wand.
Hundreds of years ago, another woman walked this street and walked towards the stake.
Lily also forgot her wand, and could only beg when facing Voldemort.
Severus also painted his wand black, or it was made by Ollivander.
The owner of the furniture store just now looked like him, plus the children dressed as wizards and carrying pumpkins and candy, she seemed to have returned to the magical world.
She laughed while thinking, this Halloween, should she play a prank to scare these Muggles?
