Chapter 445 Tragedy of Heaven 11
Also known as "Marriage is the Grave of Love" Zhang Baotong 2016.7.4
They met Fulbert in the living room on the first floor. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Fulbert is about fifty years old, not tall, slightly fat, the vestibule of the head has been closed, the nose is large, the eyes are small, and the face is shrewd, which makes people look like a businessman. Abelard and Fulbert were both in the same church, and they had met a few times, but they had little contact and interaction. But Fulbert was very polite, sat the two guests on the sofa, and then said some compliments and polite words.
Everyone was polite to each other for a while and began to get down to business. Fulbert asked Abelard, "Why did Sir think of coming to my house to be a governess for my niece, a philosopher and theologian of great renown in Paris and France today?"
Abelard was prepared for this question, saying, "Because you paid some money for teaching in our school. As a tribute to you, I would like to make something in return. In fact, the amount he paid for the school was pitiful. But it can be used as an excuse for Abelard. Then, Abelard said, "Something has happened at home recently, and I have spent a lot of money, and I do need some financial support at home." That's the way it is. ”
Fulbert nodded, then blinked, and said, "I wish my niece had a teacher of such learning and repute as you, which would be of great benefit to her growth in Latin and rhetoric, as well as in philosophy and theology." However, I don't have a lot of income in the church, so I won't be able to pay you a lot. ”
"You can pay as much as you want." ”
So, Fulbert said a number. This figure is much less than Abral imagined, and it is simply unacceptable. However, Abelat knew that he was not here to earn money, that his school was in a very good financial and financial situation, that he was not short of money at all, and that what he really needed was the girl named Eloise.
So Abelard said, "Your price is pitiful." However, your niece is a very bright student. Although the honorarium is small, I am willing to teach such students. ”
Fulbert was very happy when he heard this, and said, "Then make a deal." With that, he got up from the couch and held out his hand to shake Abelard's hand. After that, he took a quill pen and wrote a paperwork, signed it, and asked Abelard and Aros to sign it.
After signing, Fulbert asked the maid Ramani to bring three glasses of wine, and said to Abelard and Aros, "Come, let's celebrate, and cheers to my niece Eloise as a governess with a master like Abelard!"
All three of them raised their glasses at the same time and touched them, then drank them all. Fulbert then said to Abelard, "My niece is smart, but she is young and stubborn. You have to be strict with her, you have to discipline her strictly, just as you do in school with a student, and if she does something wrong or badly, you can do anything to educate her and punish her. so that she may become a nurturing and learned woman under your education and discipline. ”
"Since the esteemed Mr. Fulbert trusts me so much," said Abelard, "I am confident that I will raise your wise niece well." However, I think because of the time, I may come not only during the day, but also at night. ”
When Fulbert heard this, he was of course glad and said, "Sir, as my niece's governess, can of course come and go in our house at any time. All in all, I'd be happy to give my niece all to a teacher like you. ”
Hearing this, Abelard couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart: he was reassuring that he had left a tame lamb in the care of a greedy big bad wolf. And this big bad wolf has been playing this lamb's idea all along.
In order to meet Eloise as soon as possible and be with her, Abelard offered to start teaching that evening. This made Fulbert particularly happy.
At six o'clock in the evening, after dinner, Abelard went to Fulbert's house with his books, and Fulbert led him into Eloise's study. The study is quite large, with a large bookcase inside. The bookcase is full of books, and there are some little antiques and knick-knacks that girls like. In front of a large window near there was a desk. On the desk were a few books and some of the girl's personal belongings. And the lovely girl Eloise was sitting at the table reading a book.
Then Fulbert said to his niece, "My dear Eloise, my precious daughter, who do you think I have brought you?"
Eloise got up from her chair and turned to see that it was Abelard, which made her gasp. But she made a very calm appearance, put her hand to him, and said, "Hello, Mr. Abelard. ”
At this time, Eloise had crimson hair. He wore a turquoise one-fold skirt that was long and dragged all the way to the ground. Inside the skirt was a white fine linen undergarment with embroidery and beautiful ties at the cuffs, several rows of convex stripes and filigree embellishments under the collar. A thin belt was tied around his waist. The skirt is decorated with colored silk threads and gold threads, which makes the color of the skirt elegant and showy. In particular, her green dress made Abelard feel very novel, and her eyes couldn't help but light up. Because May is the season of love, and the green clothing of the May Festival has the meaning of youth and love between men and women. And green symbolizes youth, vitality and hope. Abelard's deep eyes immediately froze, "God, there is such a pure and unearthly beauty in the world!" Abelard couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
Seeing that Eloise had reached out her hand, he took her hand at once, and looked a little excited, for this was the first time he had touched her body, so he took her hand and secretly exerted his strength to let her know what he meant. Then, kissed her on the hand.
However, she didn't know what he was coming for, because she didn't know what reason he would have come here to find her. But in her heart, she was thinking about the love poems he had written her.
Then her uncle said to her, "My dear Eloise, in order that you may receive a better education, I have brought in Monsieur Abelard, the famous teacher of today's Paris, to be your teacher. I think that with his teaching and help, you will become the smartest and most knowledgeable woman in Paris. ”
Eloise then realized that Abelard had come to be her governess. However, she felt a fear in her heart, for she had read the love poems he had written to her, and knew that the fire of lust burned in his heart. If this flame of desire ignites here, it will be a devastating disaster. However, since her uncle had already invited him, she had nothing to say. She made a happy appearance and said, "Thank you uncle for your kindness." ”
The uncle said, "As long as I make my beloved baby daughter happy, I don't care how much money I spend." So saying, he said to Abelard, "I will not waste your time, but you can start your lesson." With that, Fulbert left the house and closed the door.
