Chapter 223 A Story

The Grand Duke of Estonia looked angry, while the Grand Duchess also had a cold look in her eyes.

Did Bishop Margery mean this?

However, Bishop Margery did not seem to see the change in the expressions of the Grand Duke of Estonia and his wife. Instead, he was talking to himself. He sighed softly, "These beautiful red shoes come from a cute little girl."

"This little girl's name is Galen!"

"Galen was born in a poor family. In the summer, she had to walk barefoot. In the winter, she could only walk with a pair of heavy wooden shoes, and the insteps were worn out by the wooden shoes. But there was no way, poor

Little Galen doesn’t have a pair of shoes of his own!”

"Her mother is an old shoemaker in the village! She feels very sorry for little Galen, and she is determined to make a pair of beautiful red shoes for her daughter!"

"She took great pains to find an old piece of red cloth, sat down and tried her best to sew a pair of small shoes! This pair of small shoes is not beautiful, and is even a bit ugly, but it is full of a mother's love for her daughter.

meaning!"

Bishop Margeri spoke quietly, while the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Estonia unknowingly suppressed their impatient hearts and listened.

When she heard this, Grand Duchess Susan felt the same way and couldn't help but said, "Is this the pair of shoes?"

"Of course not, Grand Duchess!" Bishop Margery smiled and said, "For a daughter, these shoes are priceless, but they are not the protagonist of our discussion today!"

Grand Duchess Susan closed her mouth.

Bishop Margery continued, "Not long after the shoes were sewn, little Galen's mother passed away! Little Galen had to wear these red shoes to attend his mother's funeral!"

"An old lady who went back to the village to visit relatives saw this scene and felt very sorry for little Galen. She was a widow with no children, so she adopted her!"

"The old lady brought little Galen back to the city."

"The old lady provided little Galen with food, drink, and clothes. Little Galen's life became much happier."

"Everything is going well, except..." Bishop Margery gave up.

"I guess it has something to do with the pair of red shoes, right?" Grand Duchess Susan guessed very cleverly.

"Yes, Grand Duchess!" Bishop Margery nodded with a smile and continued, "Little Galen wears those little red shoes every day, but the old lady doesn't like them very much, thinking they are unlucky and annoying. Poor.

Little Galen once naively thought that the old lady liked these red shoes, but unexpectedly it was the opposite."

"The old lady took these red shoes and burned them!"

"No, how could she?" Grand Duchess Susan, who is also the mother of a child, was most moved when she heard this.

"It's a pity that the red shoes made by little Galen's mother for her daughter were burned!" Bishop Margery said.

Grand Duchess Susan suddenly fell silent.

Bishop Margery continued, "Time passed bit by bit, and little Gallen grew up slowly, reaching an age where she can be ordained. People are saying that she is cute and beautiful!"

"Once, the princess of Galen's country went on a tour, and she also went to see it! On that princess, Galen saw a pair of red tanned leather shoes on the princess's feet! What a beautiful pair of red shoes they were!" Margery

praised the bishop.

"Are these the red shoes?" Grand Duchess Susan couldn't help but ask.

"Sorry, dear madam, no!" Bishop Margery shook his head, and then said, "But these red shoes also deeply attracted Galen's eyes, and she also wanted a pair of her own red shoes!

"

"Galen went to a shoe shop in the city, a shop that specializes in making shoes for the aristocrats and wealthy people. There were many large glass shelves there, displaying many neat shoes and shiny boots. Among them, Galen

Lun found a pair of shoes that were very similar to the princess's red shoes."

"The old lady who adopted Galen could no longer see clearly. She didn't know the shoes were red and thought they were black. So she bought these shoes for Galen!"

"Galen really likes these shoes! She wears these shoes to various dances every day, and everyone who sees her praises her!"

"This made this lovely little girl feel proud and vain inside."

"She even participated in the baptism of the Lord of Holy Light while wearing these red shoes!"

"Oh my god! This is so disrespectful..." Grand Duchess Susan murmured, even if this was the Northland, they would not do such a thing in such a solemn place.

"Vanity always blinds people." Bishop Margery said lightly, without any expression, as if it was commonplace!

"Wearing red shoes, Galen got everyone's attention in the church, but Galen was extremely happy!"

"However, after the kind-hearted old lady learned about this from other people's mouths, she was very angry and severely stopped Galen from wearing red shoes to church again. He could only wear black shoes!"

"But Galen thought that wearing black shoes would not attract others' attention. When the next church service came, Galen still couldn't resist the temptation of the devil in his heart, so he put on the red shoes again and went to the church!"

"At the door of the church, there was a disabled veteran standing with a cane. He had a strange long beard, and the beard was red."

"When he saw the old lady and Galen, he almost bent his waist to the ground and asked the old lady if he could be allowed to wipe off the dust on Galen's shoes, because only clean people can enter the church!"

"Galen stretched out her little feet, and the disabled soldier also saw the pair of red shoes. He couldn't help but admired what beautiful dancing shoes they were. They are most suitable for dancing, but they are not suitable for entering.

church!"

"The old lady didn't expect Galen to put on the red shoes again, and was very angry. She ordered Galen to take off the red shoes. Galen agreed on the surface, but took advantage of the old lady's dazzling eyes, quietly put them on again, and entered the sacred

In the church!"

"What happened then?" the Grand Duke of Estonia asked with a frown, "was she expelled from the church?"

"No! The Holy Light is tolerant! Galen's prayer went smoothly. However, while praying, Galen did not put her mind on her faith in the Lord of the Holy Light. She only thought about her pair of red shoes!

"When Bishop Margery said this, his tone became a little harsh.

The Grand Duke of Estonia's eyes shrank slightly, because when he was praying, he was not thinking about the Lord of Holy Light, but...

The Grand Duke of Estonia was not sure whether Bishop Margery meant anything, but Bishop Margery continued!
