Miss Trotter's obvious thought was that Frida knew on which side her bread was buttered; but remembering that the proprietor was a widower, it occurred to her that the young woman might also have it buttered on both sides.
The woman stopped dragging her donkey and looked. Labouise continued: "What are you doing going to the locomotive show?" The woman made no reply. Chicot continued: "Say, your trotter's prime for a race. Where are you taking him at that speed?" At last the woman answered: "I'm going to Macquart, at Champioux, to have him killed. He's worthless." Labouise answered: "You're right.
Through this door stepped a short and extremely broad-shouldered man. There was no trace of annoyance on his face. In fact, much to Trotter's vague disappointment, he was smiling, smiling easily and broadly. He wore a workman's jumper, stained with oil and iron rust, and in his hand he carried a large pair of pipe tongs. But these did not interest Trotter.

Father and son grew warm in the discussion of this most amazing determination on the part of the latter and it all came to a sharp end when both lost temper.
