:26:04
I had just been laying her out.
:26:09
That's why
I didn't answer sooner.

:26:13
I don't think
she left much money.

:26:16
Her husband died six years ago...
:26:19
and she lived on what he left.
:26:23
In any case, her son will inherit.
:26:27
His name is Jean Cadoret
and he must be about 35.

:26:32
He's a tax collector,
but I don't know where.

:26:37
The notary will surely
locate him.

:26:40
Tax collectors are never
hard to fiind.

:26:44
He's married...
:26:46
but, unfortunately,
by God's will...

:26:50
he's a hunchback.
:26:53
What if some villager
tells him about the spring?

:26:59
That's unlikely.
:27:02
The villagers here don't mix
into other people's business.

:27:08
And the way
you wrecked that house...

:27:10
would make any farmer
sit down and cry.

:27:15
You're right!
:27:17
He'll sell it.
:27:20
He'll sell.
:27:23
A pen makes less blisters
than a pickax.

:27:28
A farmer may grow a hump, but
a hunchback rarely becomes a farmer.

:27:45
Who would have thought...
:27:47
that Florette would give birth
to a hunchback?
