Till we heard of these wars, Annot was as fond of him as could be. It was none but he then; but now, she will not as much as turn her head if she sees his white jacket." "Hold thine unmannerly, loutish, stupid tongue, wilt thou, thou dolt," said Annot, deeply offended. "Boullin indeed!
"You give us great encouragement truly," said Jacques. "I hope our sweethearts will not all do as Lolotte did. You would not serve your lover so, when he was fighting for his King and country would you, Annot?" "I might, then, if I didn't like him," said she. "She's no better than her neighbours, M. Chapeau," said one of her brothers. "There was young Boullin, the baker, at St. Paul's.
I danced with him last harvest-home; I know not why, unless for sheer good-nature; and now, forsooth, I am to have Boullin for ever thrust in my teeth. Bah! I hate a baker. I would as lieve take a butcher at once." Jacques Chapean also was offended.
"I wonder, Jean Stein," said he, "that you know not better than to liken your sister to such as young Boullin a very good young man in his way, I have no doubt. You should remember there is a difference in these things."
Jacques walked on a few minutes or two in silence, cutting off the heads of the blue-bells with his little cane. "I am not different to you then from any one else, eh, Annot?" said he. "How different, M. Chapeau?" "You will think as much of young Boullin, the baker?" "I don't like young Boullin, the baker, and I don't thank you for mentioning his name one bit."
"Well! people say you are very partial to young Boullin." "People lie they always do; everybody tries to tease and plague me now. You and Jean, and father, and that old fool, Rouel, are all alike," and Annot gave symptoms of hysterical tears. Jacques was again silent for awhile, but he had commenced walking very near to his companion, and she did not appear to resent it.
