Chapter Seventy-Three: The Gifts That Came Everywhere
Who said sick and cute are cute? Who said blackened girls are the most charming? Stand up for me, and I promise not to kill you! My mother-in-law, I don't control my illness anymore, who will save me, the blackened girl is so terrible, woo woo woo woo...... Brought back the human head nitrate? I don't have the guts! Grandma, just spare me......
I never realized that it would be so terrifying to put the two-dimensional sprout point into the three-dimensional. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info a tender and affectionate farewell one moment ago, and the next second it became a strange and terrifying supernatural symposium.
"I have heard from some old people that it seems that the incomplete corpse cannot reach the Lord of Hades safely, but can only become a lonely ghost, but I hope that none of the Russians who died on the battlefield will be left with a whole corpse. What the hell does it sound horrible...... But Zishu, you shouldn't be afraid of these, right? The ghost is most afraid of killing the angry soldiers......" Qu Ti took a sip of warm tea, and then told me a lot of nonsense.
Poor girl. It seems that the death of her father at the hands of the Russians really left a great psychological wound on her. What kind of stimulus would make such a cute intellectual girl turn into the most paranoid avenger at the mention of Russians?
I still vividly remember the sight of Au Ti smiling and sending the dagger into the back of the Soviets' waist, a scene I will never forget.
"Zhen ......" Another young female voice came from the door, and I secretly said, it's going to be bad!
The person who came was none other than Nicholas II's granddaughter, Anastasia.
I caught up with him and stopped between Quti and Anastasia, "Ah, Miss Aurora, how come you have time to come to the Humble House today?" Under ......"
"Aurora...... Russian? Ou Ti stood up almost instantly.
"Uh, no, no, don't get me wrong, this Miss Aurora is a Tatar, her surname is Varikhanov, and she is a poor person who is also oppressed by Slavic barbarians......" I hastened to explain. At the same time, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.
Anastasia was about to explain when I stopped her eyes from me.
She is not stupid, and after a little thought, she understands how I explain and how she accepts it is the most correct choice at the moment.
"Yes." Anastasia gave a friendly smile, "My ancestors have been Cossacks living in Astrakhan for generations. ”。
Qu Ti's expression also softened a little, and although his smile became cold again, he didn't further express his hostility.
"I said Ann...... Miss Aurora, I wonder why you are here today? "I led Anastasia to sit down on the couch and served her tea.
"That's right, I'm going to the Daming Jingshi soon, and you're also going to the front line of the Western Regions. So I'd like to come and say thank you once. The Russian boldness was vividly displayed in Anastasia, who not only did not have a shy demeanor when saying these words, but was generous.
"Thank you? It didn't have to be at all, I was just a whim that day, and I didn't feel like that place was going to save you. I smiled.
"But I still have to convey my heart." Anastasia took off a cross pendant from her neck, "This cross was given to me by my mother, and I have been with me since I was a child, and now I am transferring it to you. Legend has it that those who wear it are protected from death. And I believe that wearing it will give you God's favor. May God bless you. ”
It seems that Anastasia once mistook me for a Christian, and this misunderstanding has not been solved until now.
I'm not pretentious, but if I refuse at this time, I will be too unkind: "Thank you very much, Miss Aurora. ”
I took the cross pendant.
According to Western etiquette, after receiving a gift, it should be opened in front of you as a sign of respect - this is completely different from the East, and I wore it around my neck as soon as I received it.
Well, I hope God's gaze won't unlucky me as a heretic, I'm a great good man.
But Quti frowned and said a person's name in Russian: "Russ...... Poutine? ”
"Rasputin?" I don't understand why Zetti mentions such an Orthodox Christian who was in the time of Nicholas II - the evaluation of him was clearly polarized in later generations, some considered him a saint with special powers, others thought that he was a demon monk who troubled the court, and he had a part to blame for the demise of Tsarist Russia.
But his prophecies were extremely accurate. In another time, he was vehemently opposed to Russia's involvement in World War I, which would bring disaster to Russia. He also said that if he died, Tsarist Russia would perish - and the results were fulfilled.
Overall, it's a daunting guy. Although I am not superstitious, there are some things in this world that involve the occult that cannot be explained by science.
Quti pointed to the cross I had just hung around my neck: "Rasputin's name is written on it. At the same time, she narrowed her eyes at Anastasia, as if she had doubts about Anastasia's identity.
I picked it up and looked at it, and sure enough. Rasputin's name is small, but it is indeed engraved at the base of the cross.
I hurriedly covered for Anastasia: "Ah, it turned out to be the relic of that saint, where did your mother find it, I deserve such a valuable gift." Miss Aurora, please take it back. ”
Anastasia stood up and shook her head: "Without you, I might have died, please don't shirk it again." Also, Her Royal Highness dragged me to bring you a handkerchief. ”
Anastasia handed me a handkerchief that was not a good embroiderer: "Because of her status, I can't send it to you personally, so I asked me to bring a piece, and she said that she wanted to use it to commemorate the comradeship between you." ”
I should be happy, I should be cheering. But at this time, I was a little inexplicably cowardly. What does this mean, Your Royal Highness? No matter how you think about a girl's handkerchief, it can't be to commemorate the comradeship! God, I'm really worried that I will be beaten to death by the emperor with a stick, and seducing the princess is not a small crime......
But in the few breaths I took in a daze, Anastasia had already taken her leave. I can't just shout in the hallway and get my handkerchief back, can I? I don't want to be stared at by people staring at scum, that's terrible!
