Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 1376 Sweet Violet
Chaputal was supposed to be a handsome man when he was young, and he was very talented. Maybe it was because of this that he was spotted by Marie-Anne Layal from Bagnoles, and he got rid of the financial difficulties and had enough funds. Implement your own dreams and plans.
At that time, the French industry was very backward and relied too much on foreign countries for the supply of raw materials, especially in the textile industry. He estimated that modern chemical progress was enough to find substitutes for the missing raw materials and improve various production processes. The Rayal family, which is also in the cloth trade, became more prosperous through Chaputal, and Chaputal also entered the closed and powerful financial circle and textile industry circle of Montpellier through this marriage.
On Christmas Day, Georgiana accepted Chaputal's invitation and came to his private residence-the estate that once belonged to the Duke of Choiseul, a minister of Louis XV.
Georgiana believed that after a failed relationship and marriage like hers, she would have the idea of squandering. Napoleon Bonaparte was generous and gave her 6 million to decorate the restaurant in the Tuileries Palace. This money can be regarded as a breakup fee Yes, ordinary dyers may never have seen so much money in their entire lives.
As long as she thinks of this, she has no idea of squandering, but she really doesn't plan to use these silks to decorate the restaurant. She wants to paint the picture of the French army crossing the Alps twice on the wall like "The Last Supper". .
It would be a very magnificent painting, with the vast snow-capped mountains, and the soldiers who levered the sledge with some force, it would be perfect to decorate a restaurant where the main diners are men.
In addition, she also found a carpet from the spoils sent back, which was given to Napoleon by the Turkish sultan. It was mixed with gold thread and woven with many wise words and admonitions, which looked very magnificent.
Georgiana doesn't plan to put it on the ground, she wants to hang it, or use a screen to display it, as for the dining table, she plans to use a long table, just like the medieval monastery, or simply bring a few from the monastery .
The tableware is still made of silver, but the plates are all from the Sevres ceramic factory. The floating candle ceiling of Hogwarts is impossible, but she can draw the constellation map on the ceiling, and she plans to replace the lighting fixtures with those of Venice. Handmade glass, the theme is the story of the Odyssey, which she has handed over to Denon to find someone to design, and then move a few Greek sculptures from the Louvre, the new restaurant will be arranged like this.
Her office is next door to the dining room. Originally, she would have preferred to be underground, but it was too dark inside without a ray of light. It would take a while to repair a cubicle that belonged to her. During the renovation of the restaurant, French officials had to find another office. place to eat.
She went to City Hall by herself and filled out the damn trousers permit application form, and got the right to wear trousers and men's clothing at the Paris police station, but she didn't use it right away.
She didn't need to be unconventional, and she felt that it should be used on more important and formal occasions. She was going to use it with the sword set with the Regent Diamond, and then she asked Sophie to return the sword to its original Owner.
One million francs is enough to buy a very nice manor, and she will move out of the Louvre suite as soon as possible.
Then she was about to start a new life.
But before that, she hoped to loosen her shackles. Without Napoleon's protection, the scavengers might hunt her down. She didn't want to end up in the same situation as those witches who were tried.
Independence means that everything depends on herself. She used to be able to take care of more than 1,000 students in the school, and she will not be reduced to the point where she can't take care of herself even if she has money.
If she wants to do business, it will be very inconvenient to continue to let Caprara be her guardian. It is better for a priest not to get involved with secular affairs. It will be much more convenient to switch to Shaputar as her guardian.
Chaptal also had a guardian, Claude, who always hoped that Chaptal would be more rational, stop doing chemistry and continue studying medicine, but he left a shadow because of the autopsy of a young man who died of chest acute pleurisy, As soon as his scalpel was put down, the dead body actually sat up by itself. Since then, he has not touched medicine.
Maybe it was because she looked too "blue" on Christmas Day. Mrs. Chaputal asked her what happened, so she told Mrs. Chaputal honestly what happened to her, and then she lived in the Sharptal home. .
On December 28, the official "Paris Gazette" published a personal letter written by Chaputal to the female star Miss Dumeny. The love in it needs no words, but the female star is only 23 years old. Old enough to be her father.
Georgiana couldn't describe Mrs. Chaputal's mood at that time. Maybe she came at the right time, and Mrs. Chaputal could use entertaining her as an excuse to ignore the gossip.
Mariana and she chatted about many things that Chapthal had done as a young man, including his work at the Gunpowder Bureau and the explosion at the Grenachen Gunpowder Factory.
In the era of Robespierre's rule, any failure will cost lives. When the chemical plant exploded into ruins, it also took the lives of thousands of workers and dozens of horses. They disappeared without a trace. , leaving no trace.
He was so shaken by that scene that he taught chemistry from then on until the end of the Reign of Terror when he built another large chemical plant in Terna.
Not all scholars advocate democracy. There are many academicians of the French Academy and Chaputal to study a new political science, hoping that the government in modern society can be more rational.
Georgiana was invited to participate, but she declined because she was unwell, because now she didn't like even Shaputal.
All the silks that Napoleon bought were white and undyed. Georgiana discussed with Mariana to resell the silks after they were dyed with fuel. Georgiana wrote to Mrs. Talian and Reka for advice on the styles and patterns. Mrs. Mill, Mrs. Talian came to the Shaputal house later, but Mrs. Recamier did not come.
Mrs. Talian said that blue is the most in demand in Paris now, and the current dye is vegetable dye. When Shaputar was young, Turkish red cotton cloth had to be imported at a high price. He borrowed the discovery of chloroquine to bleach cotton cloth. Through the principle of reversible reaction, he found a chemical reagent to dye cotton cloth red. Georgiana's heart hurts just thinking about the rivers flooded with chemical waste to make jeans, and she's determined not to involve Shapthal.
She's going to try using indigo as a substitute for indigo, which is available in the greenhouse, but she doesn't want to go to the Grand Trianon for such a small gain.
When Lily and Severus ended, they were very straightforward, not sloppy at all, but it was Severus who never forgot about her.
Originally, Georgiana wanted to make up her mind that the next time she finds a man, she must not be so obsessed with her old love, but after thinking about it, this kind of man often abandons his wife who is in trouble when he finds a better one, and then Marry younger and more beautiful, or better for yourself, so I no longer want to fall in love.
Others dream of good and happy things, but she dreams of unhappy and unpleasant things, but this dream does not seem like a nightmare, at least it is much better than what Teresa encountered.
Teresa is the name of Mrs. Talian. She is very fashionable and strong. She will call Bonaparte "soil" unceremoniously and say how hypocritical women in high society are. When Pauline first arrived in Paris, she followed Like ordinary country girls, although they are naturally beautiful, they don't know how to dress up, and they are not very popular in the social circle.
Later, she learned to dress up and became radiant. After Napoleon led the army to Egypt, one day a party was held at Juno's house. On that day, Polina was dressed as a Basque priestess of the wine god. She wore a corolla headdress surrounded by leather vine leaves. It is embellished with precious stones, the hair is tied into a high bun, and clusters of grape-shaped gold ornaments fall from the bun, and the Indian saree dress has a large gold-embroidered embroidery, and is draped in a solid Greek style. Jacket.
The belt was in the ancient Greek style, and the buckle was a magnificent imitation Greek gemstone, which was tied around the chest. When she walked in, she showed her round arms, with a gold bracelet inlaid with cameos on her arms.
The men present were all admiring, while the ladies were disappointed, and there were many vicious words in their whispers.
Some people said that she was a commoner three years ago, why is she now a lady? But their words were quickly drowned out in the loud praises of the men.
Madame de Contard, the number one beauty who was originally dressed as the goddess of hunting Diana at the ball, was suddenly eclipsed, and the suitors around her no longer complimented her, but surrounded Madame Le Quebert instead.
At that time, Mrs. Le Quebert said that the living room was too hot and uncomfortable. She went to the dressing room and there was a recliner in it. She could just lie down and show off her graceful figure.
But there was a problem when lying down. The dressing table had a mirror and was illuminated by candles, which made the dressing room brighter. Paulina's head happened to be in the brightest place in the room.
Mrs. de Contard was watching Paulina carefully. Instead of speaking harsh words like other women, she praised Paulina from beginning to end, and then Mrs. de Contard exclaimed, "My God, such a The beauty actually has a defect, look at her ears, they are too big, aren't they, so big, it would be appropriate to cut off half of them."
So everyone's eyes focused on Paulina's ears. Those big ears made other women feel that God was fair. Paulina's ears were big, ugly and soft, exactly as Mrs. de Contad said It was so ugly.
This trick made Mrs. Leclerc unable to bear it. She cried and then left the stage on the pretext of feeling unwell.
Georgiana became anxious when she heard this, and she remembered the name de Contard.
"Oh, look quickly." Mariana suddenly exclaimed.
Georgiana and Teresa looked where she was looking, and saw a little boy in a gray coat walking towards them with a bouquet of violets.
The child Georgiana knew was Polina's son Delmir, and he should have been on board to go to Santo Domingo with his parents.
The gray overcoat was almost Napoleon's signature, but instead of his three-cornered hat Delmid wore a round hat and boots, making him look like a smaller Napoleon.
Delmid handed Violet to Georgiana, "This is my belated apology."
Delmid said in a childish voice.
"I know this story." Teresa said quickly, "General Bonaparte's fellow countryman Salichetti hid in Mrs. Permondi's house, and the general came to arrest him himself. That Salichetti is really not a good person. It is too dangerous for Madame Permondi to harbor such a man, said General Bonaparte, Madame, you are a good man, Salichetti is a bad man, he is too bad to deserve your help, he knows you will not be cruel Shut him out, and he will drag down your entire family, and it is impossible to imagine how much risk this will bring to you."
Georgiana looks at three-year-old Delmid "Who brought you here?"
"Uncle," said Delmid.
"Which uncle?"
Delmid shook his head.
Georgiana looked at Teresa "Are you his lobbyist?"
"I just happen to know the story." Madam Tarrian covered her face with her small fan.
Georgiana looked at the fox speechlessly.
"I've been in your house for a long time, thank you for your care." Georgiana said to Mrs. Chaputal.
"My home is always open to you," said Mrs. Shaputal, smiling.
Georgiana stared at the "little flower girl", snatched the violet from his hand, and took his hand and left.
Teresa whispered to Mrs. Chapthal behind her back, and it was clear that they had something new to talk about.
