Clothilde is a young woman who is much appreciated in the village for her joie de vivre and enthusiasm.

She always has a smile on her face and her boundless optimism is contagious when you talk to her! 

Very pretty, she has a number of suitors, but the beautiful woman is waiting for the one who will make her heart beat. Love marriages were rare in those days, it wasn't in people's minds, but she believed in them and lost herself in her romantic thoughts on her way to chapel.

While she waits to meet the lucky man, she puts her heart into her job, which she loves and which she knows is useful to many people. 

Willard, the blacksmith, has come to give him a job.

Willard : Hello Clothilde! I'm sorry to bother you, but I need your help with my aprons, they're getting really worn.

Clothilde: Hello Willard! You're not disturbing me! I'm not going to complain about having work to do.

Clothilde: As I have other orders, I could finish your things in 3 days. Does that suit you? 

Willard : Of course! No problem at all. Your work is always of the highest quality, so I'll pay you in advance.

Clothilde : Thank you, you don't have to! In any case, your compliments go straight to my heart! 

Ah, if she only knew how much Willard would love to touch her heart...
