Madame Ragon, Cesarine, and Constance left the contracting parties to listen to the deeds read over to them by Alexandre Crottat.
It was the voice of "Bruyant Alexandre" "Noisy Alexander" who had new songs to sing about the little soldiers of France and the German vulture and the glory of the Tricolour.
Alexandre Crottat will fit us like a glove for a son-in-law, and he will succeed Roguin; but do you suppose he will be satisfied with a hundred thousand francs dot? supposing that we gave our whole property outside of the business to establish our daughter, and I am willing; I would gladly live on dry bread the rest of my days to see her happy as a queen, the wife of a notary of Paris, as you say.
She was afraid, being as stupid as all her kind. She faltered: "How did you guess?" "Come, go on telling me," I said. "Oh, the first time didn't amount to anything.
