Chapter 2211 The Battle of Flowers One hundred and twenty
Chapter 2213 Flower dispute (one hundred and twenty-two)
For pure-blood wizards, the Obscurus and the Obscurus are actually not difficult targets to deal with, because they only need to kill the Obscurus as the host, and the Obscurus will look for the next host.
This is different from the traditional Western soul theory. If according to the church, people will be judged after death and either go to heaven or go to hell. Sometimes there are spiritual beings such as "guardian angels", that is also
Those who go to heaven are sent by God, such as the children's kind grandparents. Newt Scamander "once" stripped the Obscurus from a Sudanese girl. Her magical abilities were discovered by Muggles and were considered a kind of
Disease, she was imprisoned and "treated".
The Republic of Sudan was once part of ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians believed that the body was the container of the soul. When the original "vessel" no longer fit, Voldemort created a new "vessel" using the blood of Harry Potter and
The skeleton of old Tom Riddle was illuminated by a blue Goblet of Fire throughout the process.
This is different from the "traditional" righteous people who are resurrected after accepting the Doomsday Judgment. The resurrected righteous people use their own bodies. For this reason, Christianity practices burial instead of cremation like Buddhism, while Venice uses fire "
When putting corpses on "Plague Island", it actually did not comply with the "rules".
However, with those corpses left, the Black Death may continue to spread. Since God once created humans from clay, why can't He recreate it from clay mixed with ashes?
"God ends here"
Many bizarre "stories" later appeared on that small island, and it became an excellent shooting location for horror movies. Most people were fine, but there was an American family who purchased land on the island.
They also built a house on it and planned to live in it. The island owner's daughter had a cut on her face.
Georgiana didn't know how badly she was hurt, but would the spirit on that island have the power to control physical objects, throwing chalk and water bombs at students like Peeves?
Peeves was not limited to "pranks". In 1876, he had a fight with the administrator, using scimitars, crossbows, muzzleloaders and small cannons, and shooting at will. The lives of the students were threatened.
So the castle had to be evacuated for three days. For this reason, the principal Eupracia Moore had to sign an agreement with Peeves, allowing him to hand over his weapons and gain more permissions, including the ability to swim in the boys' bathroom on the first floor, and obtain
A hat made for him by Madam Bonabil.
To be honest, Georgiana really didn't think much about it before. People also wore hats in the Rococo era, but Rose Bertin is good at designing distinctive fashions and exaggerated hairstyles. She even succeeded in making a model of a ship.
Decoration for women's high bun.
She and Marie Antoinette would launch a new season of fashion every season, and before the fashion was released, she refused to design for any court ladies. This made her resented by many people.
She needs tulle, feathers, flowers, fruits and other accessories to make a high bun. Georgiana's hair has never been long. Unless she is willing to wear a wig, Ross Bertin will not be able to realize the design in her mind with this amount of hair.
of.
She even used a hot air balloon as a hair accessory. Georgiana could swear that she would scare away everyone who saw her. Matilda bought a lot of lace, which can be used as material for veils and hats.
Yes, she wanted to make "interesting" underwear, but this would most likely be criticized and become the target of critical articles.
After all, drinking tea in these days was degenerate. Revolutionaries advocated simplicity and frugality. During the Great Revolution, there were many articles criticizing the luxury and corruption of the Wang family.
However, Rose Bertin is of great significance to Paris. She not only confirmed Paris' leading position in the fashion industry and made France a benchmark for the international fashion industry, but also established the system of releasing new fashions every quarter, such as
Voss, Poiret, Chanel, etc. will all be her successors.
If you want to change France's dependence on British high-count yarns, reduce child labor, and reduce the impact of tariffs, you need to "de-weaponize" high-count yarns, that is, change women's clothing.
For example, the best-selling fabric in the old days was silk, with complicated and exaggerated decorations. By 1792, both Rose Bertin and the thirty seamstresses under her became very poor, and she was forced to move overseas. Because of the times
It has changed, no one patronizes her business anymore, and while she is in exile, she is collecting debts from those noble creditors who are also in exile.
She became a person hated by everyone and a disaster, but she was still passionate about this career.
Bertin reminded Georgiana of Miranda, a woman whom Nicholas, the Venetian vintage costume maker, called a "devil" who "ruled" New York and even the entire world from a skyscraper, wearing clothes from various luxury brands.
American fashion industry.
Bertin also opened a clothing store on Rue Saint-Honoré in the past. The store also had a very exotic name, "The Great Khan's House". At that time, she was called the "Minister of Fashion" and there were many clothes every day.
People, whether they are customers or people who want to learn skills, come to visit.
Now she has lost the store, leaving only the house on Rue Richelieu.
If it were the old days, with Marie Antoinette's love for her, it would be easy to get that store back.
Georgiana would rather have Bertin become a fashion editor, but neither of them said what was on their mind. They just "chatted" while doing their hair, just like the daily routine that all "normal girls" should have.
The friendship between girls is sometimes based on a common enemy. Both Farron and Rose hated Madame Du Barry more, and Georgiana also followed her words.
How should I put it? Madame Du Barry is the daughter of a tailor. Normally, she would be ordered by Bertin. But if you pay attention, many portraits of Madame Du Barry are wearing hats. When wearing a hat, there is no need for exaggeration designed by Bertin.
Hairstyle and headgear right?
In order to earn some income to support herself, Madame Du Barry once sold trinkets in the dirty streets of Paris and worked as a hairdresser's assistant. Her thick long golden curly hair did not need "amateur" care at all.
Imagine what it would be like to lock two cats in a cabinet.
Even if she has a gorgeous and spacious house to live in, a "respectable person" should not work in her own home, unless she is engaged in the profession that Madame Du Barry once held. There is no Xiao Dumas yet, which is what Bertin probably meant.
A profession similar to that of La Traviata written by Xiao Dumas.
Georgiana sympathized with those women who had to work in that profession because of the pressure of life. In this regard, men like Dumas were very different from her. He sympathized with La Traviata.
But what if Traviata had contracted not tuberculosis, considered a "beautiful way to die," but syphilis?
However, Georgiana was not qualified to criticize others. She was also an intervening person in other people's marriages. This trip was supposed to be for Josephine.
Georgiana and Josephine are completely different types. Josephine is like a rose, and she can also play the harp. But Georgiana can ride a horse, and Britain is rich in good horses. This is something that Josephine, who is from Creole, cannot
Will do.
Josephine had a dedicated tailor, and Bertin, who was originally moldy in the apartment on Rue Richelieu, was found by the British and introduced to Georgiana, just like the old aristocracy re-entering the French court and political circles.
A Tale of Two Cities written by Charles Dickens was written against the background of the French Revolution. As mentioned at the beginning, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of ignorance.
;It was a time of faith, it was a time of doubt; it was a season of light, it was a season of darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had it all, we had nothing; we were all heading straight for heaven
, we are all in the other direction.
Why didn't Dickens just use hell?
In fact, there may be another worse place to go. As Machiavelli said, a person is not even qualified to go to hell and can only wander in the "limbo" with the souls of sages and babies.
Is this what Dickens meant? Or was he referring to identification? Otherwise, what place is worse than hell?
Georgiana suddenly turned her head and looked in one direction.
"What's the matter, ma'am?" asked Bertin, who was fixing the lace in her hair.
"Nothing." She said expressionlessly and continued to look at the mirror.
In addition to her and Bertin's figures, there was a cabinet in the mirror. The cabinet left a shadow in the sunlight. Just now, she saw a figure coming out of the shadow and then disappearing.
"What's in that cupboard?" Georgiana asked.
"Some documents," Bertin said.
"Take them out," said Georgiana.
Bertin asked a seamstress to get it, then leaned over to Georgiana and whispered.
"When those people wanted to send me to the gallows, I told them, these girls are real 'sans-culottes'. Do you want them to wear men's clothes like you?"
‘The condition is to help you pay off the debt above? Really?’ Georgiana thought with a sneer, but said nothing.
"You need help." Bertin squeezed Georgiana's shoulder and said, "I think you have heard the legend about where you live."
"Josephine was kind. She helped me redecorate it," she said expressionlessly.
"Do you believe what you say?" Bertin asked.
Georgiana made no answer.
Then Bertin did not continue, she placed the documents on the dressing table in front of Georgiana.
"Civilized methods don't always work," Bertin whispered, and went on to fix Georgiana's hair. "Sometimes I really wish those girls were really sans-culottes."
