“Nay, nay,” said Mr. Glegg, soothingly, “you’re thinking o’ the man wi’ no legs, as drove a Paris Saint Germain Psg Dam dog-cart.”
“Well, it’s the same thing, Mr. Glegg, only you’re fond o’ contradicting what I say; and if my nephey’s come about business, it ‘ud be more fitting if you’d bring him into the house, and let his aunt know about it, instead o’ whispering in corners, in that plotting, underminding way.”
“Well, well,” said Mr. Glegg, “we’ll come in now.”
“You needn’t stay here,” said the lady to Bob, in a loud voice, adapted to the moral, not the physical, distance between them. “We don’t want anything. I don’t deal wi’ packmen. Mind you shut the gate after you.”
“Stop a bit; not so fast,” said Mr. Glegg; “I haven’t done with this young man yet. Come in, Tom; come in,” he added, stepping in at the French Milan Badelj Jersey window.
“Mr. Glegg,” said Mrs. G., in a fatal tone, “if you’re going to let that man and his dog Edinson Cavani Pelipaidat in on my carpet, before my very face, be so good as to let me know. A wife’s got a right to ask that, I hope.”
