Eugenie with money [Grandet]

Eugenie didn't expect that she just asked Bono for advice on the current situation, which would cause rumors, and she had to take it seriously: "Why, I have no intention of getting married."

When Mrs. Taigou was in Saumur, she heard the story between Eugenie and Charles, and she thought that she did not forget her cousin by saying this, and advised her: "It's not that the lady should not marry, but You have to choose your marriage partner. I also think Mr. Bono is too purposeful."

"How many of these young people in Paris who want to pursue me are not because of my money." Eugenie saw it very clearly: "It is better to spend my money as I want than to let people use my money to support mistresses after marriage. Just spend it as you like."

Such a discussion shocked Mrs. Taigou: "But didn't the lady persuade Nanon to marry Cornoille at that time?" How old is Nanon.

Eugenie couldn't tell Mrs. Taigou, she knew the direction of the plot, and Nanon and Cornoille were official spouses, so she had to say: "Nanon is different from me, she is stronger than Cornoiler in terms of identity, He also has much more money than Cornoille. Besides, the two of them are old, but they are just companions for each other." There is no need to long for love like young people.

Although these reasons are a bit far-fetched, Mrs. Taigou thinks it is also reasonable. Eugenie's status is considered top in Saumur, but after coming to Paris, she is often called a nouveau riche behind her back.

In all fairness, Eugenie is not a very beautiful girl. Her beauty lies in her confidence, which makes people unable to look away unconsciously.But to discover her beauty, it takes time to contact and understand her deeply.The young people in Paris who wanted to pursue Eugenie did not have this condition, nor did they have the patience.

They saw the beauty of Eugenie because of the radiance she radiated from the gold coin on her back. With this radiance, young people would not stop to discover Eugenie's own charm.For the first time, Mrs. Taigu discovered that being too rich is not a good thing.

Eugenie has an idea in her heart, thinking that as long as she no longer has contact with Bono, the rumors will be self-defeating, so she just waits wholeheartedly for the arrival of the postcoach, picks up Nanon, and takes her to experience the colorful world of Paris.

The stagecoach arrived on time, and Eugenie had to run to the stagecoach and wait for Nanon in person, regardless of her long skirt dragging the floor.Seeing Nanon's purple face, Eugenie waved her hands excitedly: "Nanon, here. I'm here."

Nanon's thick lips could no longer close the moment he saw Eugenie, and he responded excitedly: "Miss, you are here. My God, you are so beautiful, I can hardly recognize you."

The coachman had parked the carriage and let the passengers take down their luggage.Nanon was still talking to Eugenie, and paid no attention to his luggage.Mrs. Taigou knew that she might have brought 600 million francs with her this time, and when she found that she was still talking to Eugenie, she couldn't help being anxious: "Nanon, where is your luggage?" What if someone else took it away?

"Monsieur de Bonfon will take it for me." Nanon said perfunctorily, not feeling very fond of Mrs. Taigou, and then asked Eugenie about everything after coming to Paris.

Eugenie was stunned for a moment when she heard the name of Te Pengfeng. If Nanon hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten the official assignment in name.

Now that this one suddenly appeared in Paris, Eugenie had to be alerted: "It's really surprising that you came to Paris with M. de Pompon."

Nanon smiled triumphantly at Eugenie: "Mr. Director doesn't know that I have brought something." She leaned into Eugenie's ear and whispered: "Sir, don't worry about me coming to Paris alone, so I will go with all of you." Mr. Chang said how popular Miss is in Paris. Mr. Director seems to have given up his post as a junior court and wants to join a firm in Paris."

It was really difficult for Nanon to make such a cautious voice. She thought it was not a big problem, so she restored her voice to the usual level: "Mr. Director is really a good person. He put his innermost I gave up my position, and thanks to his care along the way, I didn't go hungry."

Needless to say, Grandet fooled Youte Pengfeng into escorting Nanon, and he would not pay for the travel expenses for the two of them. Eugenie had to ask: "Then your travel expenses are paid by the director?"

Nanon shook her head proudly: "You are too contemptuous of others, Miss. I paid for the travel expenses myself." She shook her head: "Sir, you told me that you will pay me back. But seeing you, Even if I do it myself, I am willing."

Just as he was talking, Te Pengfeng, who didn't know that he was acting as a bodyguard, finally squeezed over, put the two pieces of luggage under his feet, and tried to give Eugenie a hug: "Dear Eugenie, it's really nice to see you." Great. What Baron Grandet said is right, you are really getting more and more beautiful." The word baron was bitten hard by Te Pengfeng, expressing his gratitude to the king for the grace and respect for Grandet. Rong Yan.

Using the skills she learned after coming to Paris, Eugenie quietly avoided the hug from Saumer, and her voice sounded full of joy: "Mr. de Pompon, I didn't expect you to come to Paris. One Thank you for taking care of Nanon on the way, she has never been out of the house, she must have caused you a lot of trouble."

Te Pengfeng kept staring at Eugenie, the gorgeously dressed girl in front of him couldn't coincide with the girl in Saumur's dark hall, which made Te Pengfeng, who had been holding fantasies all the time, feel dim.

Nanon recognized his luggage, put it in his hand, and waved to Te Pengfeng: "Mr. Director, I will go back with the lady first."

Eugenie also nodded to Te Pompon, leaving him the address of her mansion, asking him to be a guest when she had time, and then walked towards her carriage.Although Te Pontfeng knew this was the result, Eugenie left without hesitation, which cast a shadow on his first arrival in Paris, and he only hoped that he would make a name for himself in Paris as soon as possible.

He had been a contender at Saumur, and he would certainly be in Paris.

Eugenie, who was huddled in the carriage with Nanon and Mrs. Taigou, did not know Te Bonfon's ambitions. She was looking at Nanon's small suitcase.The box was used by Grandet for many years, the surface of the cowhide was full of scratches, and the studs were broken and reconnected, making it look dilapidated.

Eugenie believed that no one would pick up such a box even if it was thrown on the street.Who would have thought that there were 600 million francs in it?

After getting off the carriage, Nanon never stopped marveling: "Miss, this house belongs to you, and you alone? Sir, he went back and said that the house is big, but he really didn't expect it to be so big."

"This step is really strong, is it carved out of a whole stone?"

"These two young men do not look capable of work. I think Cornoille must be more capable than them."

"My God, madam, how can you use such fine velvet for curtains, this should be used for the altar!"

Mrs. Taigu felt a little ashamed, having worked with such people.Elemi felt relieved. She heard that Miss's former servant was coming to Paris, and she was worried that this person would take her place. Now it seems that worrying is a bit unnecessary.

Don't want Nanon to notice Elemi, she took a serious look at Elemi who was wearing an apron, and felt that the apron on Elemi was much better than the one Eugenie bought for her, and she was dissatisfied with Eugenie. Murmured: "Miss, you shouldn't hire so many people. Sir is right, I should stay to replace these people."

Eugenie smiled: "Will Monsieur Cornoille come too? You stay in Paris, what will father do? Who will cook for him, and who will harvest grapes and pasture with him?"

The most important thing is, if Grandet does any business of buying and selling gold, who will complete the delivery task for him without anyone noticing?The current Grandet is Eugenie's most solid rear.

Nanon's eyes were still fixed on Elemi's apron, and he said nonchalantly: "When the master has something, I will come to Paris to accompany the miss."

Grandet's most loyal assistant and devout follower had such an idea, which made Eugenie dumbfounded."Is Nanon's room ready?" she asked Elemie.

Elemi found that her career crisis had not been resolved, and wanted to carry the luggage for Nanon, but she refused.Nanon didn't even bother to talk to her, and only said to Eugenie, "One bed is enough for me, and there is no need to prepare a room, as you know, madam."

Eugenie could only appease the good person who had been with the original body for many years: "There are many rooms, the one you have is not bad."

As soon as the words were over, Nanon smiled even wider, but she still remembered her mission, and she had to go back to her room with Eugenie first.So Elemie finally got a chance, took Nanon's luggage, and changed the destination to Eugenie's room.

When the suitcase was opened, Eugenie had only one word of admiration for the boldness of Grandet and Nanon:

The entire box was full of thousand franc bills①. I really don’t know where Grandet got it from, and how he kept it hidden from the public during the period, so that people could not guess the delivery mission of Nanon, and brought it safely to From Paris.

Other than that, there were only two sets of Nanon's personal clothes in the trunk.These two people are not afraid that Nanon will have an accident on the road, and the 600 million francs will disappear because of it?

"Don't worry, miss." Seeing Eugenie's disapproval, Nanon smiled smugly: "Sir, I have already said that I am a fool, and no one will think of me even if I am walking on the road. The box was placed on the stage coach with everyone, and no one would have thought that someone would dare to put so much money on the roof of the carriage instead of holding it in their hands all the time."

Okay, you two are psychologists.Eugenie sighed: "But next time you must not take such a risk. After all, these are not small sums. Money orders are safer."
