Monsieur Plissoud, a competitor of Brunet, belonged to the under-world of Soulanges on account of his wife's conduct, which it was said he authorized, a report that drew upon him the contempt of the leading society. If Lupin was the musician of the leading society, Monsieur Gourdon, the doctor, was its man of science.
"He tells everything to his wife when he is drunk," remarked Lupin. "We shall know it all in good time." "The beautiful Madame Plissoud has no secrets from you," said Rigou; "we may be easy about that." "Besides, she's as stupid as she is beautiful," said Madame Soudry.

If any one ever betrayed astonishment it was Plissoud when he beheld the usurer of Blangy sitting at one of the tables, and more occupied in watching him, Plissoud, than in noticing the quarrel that was going on.
