Pygmalion Migraine

[The vicious-tongued British Duke x the money-grubbing and clever French soprano] In Europe in the 1860s, cracks in the old order had appeared and a new order had not yet been formed. However, these grand issues had nothing to do with Marianne Dubois, because she was just a passerby in a certain romantic novel, and her role was to make the hero and heroine decide to elope to North America. Why does she let the protagonist make up his mind? Because her stepfather, a nouveau riche from Marseille, was eager to give her to the old Marquis who had more air in and less air out for money! Mariana protested angrily: "That old man has syphilis! My face is a top asset, how can I let him ruin it!" "Then why don't you find a clean young nobleman?!" Amid her stepfather's rage, Mariana fled to Paris with her money. She was determined to kill everyone in the Vanity Fair at the Opera House. However, the reality was harsh. When she opened her mouth, the ladies in Paris showed disgust. In the strict-class theater, she, a Marseille bumpkin with a southern accent, was only qualified to serve as a backdrop in the chorus. Paris was expensive and there was regional discrimination. She couldn't make a name for herself at all. Just when Mariana was considering whether to go to the New World, the richest British man in Europe extended an olive branch. Alister Mowbray, Duke of Stafford, owned coal and iron mines in Sheffield, England, railroad stocks in Pennsylvania, and a ranch in Argentina as large as half of France. He sat opposite her, not taking off his white gloves the whole time, and his green eyes reminded her of some kind of cold-blooded animal: "The doctor said that staying away from London politics can relieve migraines, so I plan to do an experiment in Paris." "As long as there are enough zeros on the check, I believe that the rationality of the British Empire is enough to educate the vulgar soul of France." Who the hell are the Brits calling? But seeing that he could sign the check quickly enough, Mariana bowed her head decisively. However, what awaits her ahead is hell—— "Your Italian pronunciation sounds like a cow chewing its cud." "Learn how to use twelve kinds of spoons at royal banquets in three days." "Which speech by Cicero does that Latin phrase just come from?" Mariana scolded the eighteenth generation of the Duke's ancestors in her heart, and then picked up the seventh silver spoon for eating snails with a smile: "Okay, Your Excellency the Duke." What happened to the cow? The dead-faced British guy is jealous of her good health? One day she will stuff all these spoons into his stomach and let him use them all! When she becomes popular, the first thing she will do is kick him! With the Duke's hell training and money, the vulgar girl from Marseille became the most dazzling star of the Paris Opera House. The whole of Paris fell in love with her that day, and French bankers, Austrian princes and Tsarist Russian Grand Dukes rushed to send sky-high gifts. The Duke frowned at the gifts piled up in the dressing room. While changing his gloves, he ordered the valet to throw away the rubbish. Mariana stood in front of the gifts, imitating his example and raising her chin and saying: "These are precious assets. There is only one thing in this room that I plan to throw away." She poked his chest and said word by word: "It's you, Duke Stafford!" Looking at this triumphant southern calf, Alister Mowbray's migraine attack reached an extreme point. He lowered his green eyes, grabbed her wrist fiercely, and said with a sneer: "Mariana, it seems that not only did you not memorize Cicero, but you also forgot that this exclusive contract is valid until death do us part!" 1. This story is inspired by George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion" 2. Background In Western Europe in the 1860s, there were many historical figures, which can be used as an introduction to the customs and customs of Western Europe in the 19th century. 3. It contains a large amount of lethal European regional discrimination and hell jokes from the 19th century. It is essentially a joke.
