"I can't tell you how much care, how many days, how many manoeuvres, it cost me to become Madame de Fischtaminel's duplicate! But these are our battles, child," she adds, returning to Josephine. "I could not find a certain little embroidered neckerchief, a very marvel! I finally learned that it was made to order. I unearthed the embroideress, and ordered a kerchief like Madame de Fischtaminel's.
When I left there, I went to Braschon's, to see how much we owed him " "You made up this romance while I was talking to you! Look me in the face! I'll go to see Braschon to-morrow." Adolphe cannot restrain a nervous shudder. "You can't help laughing, you monster!" "I laugh at your obstinacy." "I'll go to-morrow to Madame de Fischtaminel's." "Oh, go wherever you like!"
What are you thinking of? What do you mean to do? Where shall we go this evening? Anything new? What weather! I don't feel well, etc., etc. "All these variations upon the same theme the interrogation point which compose Fischtaminel's repertory, will drive me mad.
She is a friend of Madame de Fischtaminel's: Madame Foullepointe, the wife of a broker, a charming man and a good fellow, very fond of his wife: he's crazy about her. His office and rooms are here, in the court, while those on the street are madame's. I know of no happier household. Foullepointe talks about his happiness everywhere, even at the Exchange; he's really quite tiresome."
Besides, you know quite well that we dine with my mother on that day, and it is impossible to miss paying her a visit. To-morrow I will leave you at your mother's, for the count has returned from Frouville and will be at Madame de Fischtaminel's concert. You know how I adore music! The Touch and Go Mouse-Trap. THE WIFE. Why did you go away so early this evening?
She perhaps enlightens Monsieur de Fischtaminel, and overthrows the labors of three years, by tearing down the scaffolding of Madame de Fischtaminel's assertions, who, after this visit, will treat you will coolness, suspecting, as she does, that you have been making indiscreet remarks to your wife.
Oh, how brutally you men take away our blessed ignorance!" This remark is meant for me, for me who had taken nothing from the lady, neither tooth, nor anything whatever of the things with a name and without a name that may be taken from a woman. "I must tell you that my husband took me to Madame de Fischtaminel's, where I dined quite often.
I felt a slight attack of fever, and when I got home, I composed myself to smile. 'You haven't said a word about my dress! I muttered. 'Ah, yes, your gown is somewhat like Madame de Fischtaminel's. He turned on his heel and went away. "The next day I pouted a little, as you may readily imagine.
"I can't tell you how much care, how many days, how many manoeuvres, it cost me to become Madame de Fischtaminel's duplicate! But these are our battles, child," she adds, returning to Josephine. "I could not find a certain little embroidered neckerchief, a very marvel! I finally learned that it was made to order. I unearthed the embroideress, and ordered a kerchief like Madame de Fischtaminel's.
I remembered the dressmaker's smile! Ah, that smile reminded me of the smiles of a number of women, who laughed at seeing me so innocent and unsuspecting at Madame de Fischtaminel's! I wept sincerely. Until now I had a right to give my husband credit for many things which he did not possess, but in the existence of which young married women pertinaciously believe.
