Poor is poor, but only you know the happiness of rural children.
Vivian stargazing and climbing trees DIY miniature garden, sleeping in the sound of cicadas at night, lying on moss during the day.
She returned to Versailles and didn’t like to go to school, but got really good grades, especially in English literature and history, a few streets ahead of others.
17 years old, Vivian was admitted to university, studying silverware design, but ran away after half a semester.

The mattress is set with hibiscus, the stars are fragrant, The emerald green dress is as enchanting as a snake, and the bright yellow dress is as bright as a bright moon in the sky.
She cut the Milky Way into a dream, and made the Madonna in the Sistine fresco.
She cut huge waves into a gown, so that the one-eyed pirate bride can be alluring at a glance.
She even exposed the truth of marriage—

How audacious is she?

The age difference is big enough to give birth to him, and the whole world is not optimistic about it.
But in the blink of an eye, people have been married for almost 30 years.
53 years old, the royal family awarded her an honor, and she received the award, turned her head and lifted her skirt, not daring to post it without typing.
"It's your freedom if you award me honors, and it's my freedom if I don't wear underwear."

80 years old, she still can't leave the book, she caresses the ancient wisdom with her old fingertips, and catches the immortal fashion with her twilight eyes.
She put famous paintings of baroque into the corset , so that hot girls want to grab a set if they tear their hair off.
She hid British classical history and culture in the skirt , so beautiful that she moved it directly into the museum and locked it up.
However, she has long been famous and wealthy, but she still lives in an old building with a monthly rent of $400, and rides an old bicycle to work all year round.
