One day her father returns to the town after a long period working away from home in a city. She discovers that she is a "foundling" or an abandoned child and was adopted by Mother Barberin. Her foster father, Jerome leaves to work in Paris and expects Mother Barberin to send Remi to the workhouse. He returns 10 years later and finds that Remi is still there, and becomes furious and Remi is almost sold to an evil slave trader.
