Gervaise n’aimait pas l’idée de se marier, car elle voulait économiser de
l’argent. Son fiancé, Coupeau, n’était pas d’accord avec elle. Il a voulu
quelque chose de simple, une petite promenade l’après-midi avec deux
ou trois amis et, après, un repas au restaurant de son ami. Il voulait
manger et boire un petit peu, avant de retourner à la maison.
Cependant, Coupeau n’était pas riche. Coupeau a demandé cinquante
francs à son patron. Coupeau devait payer l’argent de retour dans trois
mois. Il a acheté une veste et un pantalon. Heureusement, ses vieilles
chaussures étaient encore bonnes.
