232. Chapter 232 You are the only one


Chapter 232 You are the only one

It only costs one ruble to order a song in the restaurant.

It’s not that Anne doesn’t know the value of money, but she thinks George’s songs are worth the price, so she’s so generous.

Okay, this is also a prodigal woman.

But it is somewhat inappropriate to give a ring to someone when they first meet.

So George didn't ask for it.

Songs still have to be sung.

Since it was sung to a lady, the beating and killing was too disharmonious, so George chose "Birch Forest".

Compared with "Call My Name Softly", Anne obviously preferred "Birch Grove". She hoped that George could write down the score of "Birch Grove" and give it to her.

George decisively refused.

It's nice to treat you to music for free, but I also want to take the pot away with you. The German guy is really not easy to serve.

Anne's character is perseverant.

The next day Anne appeared at Yuriev Palace.

Princess?

Since you have come to Vladivostok, it is normal to visit Princess Yurievskaya. It would be foolish not to come.

Ekaterina is very happy. Anne is 15 years old, one year younger than George.

So Ekaterina called George who was inspecting the school and asked him to return to Yuriev Palace as quickly as possible.

"What are you doing, I'm busy."

George was dissatisfied. Even if he was looking for a partner, he didn't want to find a German.

The Russian royal family has enough involvement with Germany. If George finds another German wife, can a world war still start?

There should still be a fight. The royal families in Europe clearly distinguish between national interests and personal feelings.

It’s hard to say to what extent.

If the person fighting George is a relative of George's wife, it will be difficult for George to kill him.

Ekaterina didn't think so much. She didn't know that the Alliance of Three Emperors had been disbanded and that the Russian Empire and Germany were no longer allies.

“What are you busy with? Don’t you know what is the most important thing?”

Ekaterina is angry, and her heartless son is not considerate at all.

"Hello Anne, hello Catherine, hello Mary, hello Alexandra——"

George greeted the girls one by one.

The girls returned the favor one after another, looking at George with curious eyes.

George changed back into the Guards officer uniform today.

This uniform was carefully sewn by the palace tailor. Although the style was the same as that of ordinary officer uniforms, it fit better and showed more temperament. It made George's already tall and majestic figure even more outstanding.

George is now over 1.8 meters tall. Even among the Russian royal family, which is famous for its tall stature, George's height is extremely outstanding for his age.

And it is different from those members of the nobility who are either dry and skinny or as strong as a bear.

George's figure is very well-proportioned, and he looks thin when dressed and muscular when undressed, which is extremely rare nowadays when people don't pay attention to body management.

"Catherine, Mary, Alexandra, come with me, I will take you to visit Yuriev Palace."

Ekaterina called the other three girls away.

The three girls also knew what it meant, and followed Yekaterina away happily.

Anne did not follow, but came to the piano and looked at George expectantly.

"Sorry, no--"

George actually knows a little, but he'd better not make a fool of himself right now.

Male royal members have to learn languages, fencing, boxing, riding, and swimming.

What are the princesses learning?

George felt that if Anne was not lazy, her piano skills would not be much different from those of the pianists who held special performances at the St. Petersburg Grand Theater.

"I'll accompany you, where's the score?"

Anne was confident and not shy at all.

That's what I said.

Everyone has come to the Yuriev Palace, and it is clear that they will not give up until they achieve their goals.

"Come with me, I'll write you one."

George has all the scores in his head.

Since you want to write something, you must have someone to take care of you.

So Nana brought paper and pen.

George quickly wrote two pieces of music score to Anne and turned back to school.

George is very busy at work and has to inspect the hospital in the afternoon.

So Ekaterina called again.

“Put down your damn job and come back to me right away, or I will send people to blow up the school!”

Ekaterina is murderous and does what she says.

Annie doesn’t care, she really likes music and doesn’t feel neglected.

"George, don't make me angry, or I will let you know the consequences of making me angry!"

Ekaterina is cold and on the verge of going berserk.

“You are too anxious——”

George couldn't laugh or cry. Seeing what Yekaterina meant, he wanted to get married on the spot.

George knew what Catherine meant.

George didn’t hate Anne either.

Anne is quite beautiful after all.

But George is only 16 years old, and Anne doesn’t look too big. Even if he wants to get married, it can’t be now. He has to wait until Anne is an adult.

"Silly son, good girls are more scarce than rare treasures. It's better to strike first. If you don't do it, someone else will take it away -" Yekaterina is someone who has been through this before. Don't worry about whether to get married or not. Let's decide first. .

George can wait until he is 30 to get married.

Can Anne wait until she is 30?

Impossible.

If George hadn't made a reservation in advance, Anne would probably be engaged when she was about 18 and get married when she was about 20. By the time George was 30, Anne's children would all be married.

This year is the coming-of-age ceremony for Anne’s sister, Katherine. Anne accompanied Katherine on a trip around the world, so she came to Vladivostok.

Otherwise George would have no chance of meeting Anne.

Ekaterina was extremely proactive when it came to George's marriage.

Ekaterina had already started looking for a suitable marriage partner for George two years ago.

When Ekaterina made her first phone call to George, she had already asked Julian, who was in St. Petersburg, to investigate Anne's background.

“How do you know there won’t be anything better?”

George’s mentality is no different from other men in the Romanov family.

“Let’s talk about it later when we meet someone better——”

Ekaterina herself is the mistress——

Bah, bah, bah, Ekaterina herself endured the humiliation and finally achieved success, and she had no objection at all to this kind of thing.

Needless to mention the royal family.

Even for ordinary nobles or wealthy people, this kind of thing is still rare.

When Nana brought paper and pen just now, Anne completely turned a blind eye. People are used to this kind of thing.

Of course, it’s not surprising because George and Anne don’t have any relationship yet.

What if——

Well, it’s too early to say that now.

George didn't want to make Catherine angry, so George stayed at the Yuriev Palace all afternoon to play the piano with Anne.

Anne plays the piano really well, and she really likes music. She also tried composing music, but her level was poor——

I can’t say she’s not good at it.

It can only be said that the level is far from that of George on the outskirts of St. Petersburg.

But a beautiful girl plays the piano——

And she is a beautiful girl at the level of Weika. Even if the melody is not very beautiful, just thinking about this scene is already very eye-catching.

In addition to the piano, Yuriev Palace has many things that are attractive to girls.

For example, Shu Brocade.

Another example is Suzhou embroidery.

Several other girls were completely fascinated by the art from the Qing Empire and couldn't leave.

The tailors at Yuriev Palace also did their best to measure the girls, which took an hour each.

Don't be too slow, this is just a measurement.

Customizing high-end clothing is very troublesome. After measuring the size, you must first make a sample for customers to try on.

Adjustments need to be made after trying them on. This process needs to be carried out three times. It will not be finalized until the third time, and then the final production process will be entered.

It is normal for a girl to take three to five months to make a set of clothes, so this can explain why haute couture is so expensive.

George didn’t know why it was so complicated.

Anyway, after this set is customized, Anne and the others will probably stay in Vladivostok this winter.

This is not a problem.

There are many types of Shu brocade. The traditional composition can be roughly divided into six types: rain silk brocade, square brocade, striped brocade, scattered flower brocade, Huanhua brocade and ethnic brocade.

In addition to Shu brocade, the Qing Empire also had Yun brocade, Song brocade, Zhuang brocade, brocade, tapestry, silk and many other high-end fabrics.

In terms of production technology, for embroidery and cross-stitch alone, there are Gu embroidery, Su embroidery, Cantonese embroidery, Shu embroidery, horsetail embroidery, Miao embroidery, plate embroidery, cross-stitch, sachet embroidery and other techniques to choose from.

So don’t talk about Annie and the others.

Even Ekaterina, who prided herself on being well-informed, was completely conquered by the fabrics and production techniques of the Qing Empire.

Ekaterina indeed spared no effort, selling only ten cloaks for each girl. In addition to various high-end fabrics, there are also high-end furs.

Anne, who was born into the royal family, can be said to be pampered on weekdays.

But there is more than one princess in the Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen family, Anne, and Anne did not enjoy this kind of treatment in Brandenburg.

Catherine——

The princess who wanted to give her fiancé to Mary, was secretly very envious of Catherine.

“I had only heard some rumors about Princess Yurievskaya before, but I had never actually met Princess Yurievskaya. I thought Princess Yurievskaya was so unbearable - now it seems, Most of the rumors are rumors. Princess Yurievskaya is the most elegant, beautiful, and approachable woman I have ever seen.”

I have to say that Ekaterina has been very happy these days. The small gift given to Catherine was a bit too much, and it had completely won over Catherine.

The good things in Vladivostok are not just high-end fabrics and production techniques.

Most Europeans like gemstones and diamonds.

The most popular stones in the Qing Empire were jade and jade.

What Catherine is wearing on her wrist is the imperial green bracelet that Catherine gave to Catherine.

It’s imperial green for Catherine, and I won’t be stingy for Anne.

Anne doesn’t like imperial green, preferring blue.

So Catherine gave Anne a complete set of jewelry made of blue water jade.

Jade, like diamonds, is non-renewable——

At least in this era it is non-renewable.

So in theory, every jade jewelry is unique.
