  How did Juliette persuade the French couple to buy the villa?                    or Juliette, while commenting to Jeanne, also praised her villa. How?            or In what ways did Juliette flatter Jeanne?

Answer:

                  Juliette tried to persuade the French couple to buy the villa by using a bit of flattery. She said that the villa will suit the couple admirably as they would suit the villa. She added that the couple already appeared to be at home in the house. She called Jeanne an elegant lady and her villa a graceful house. She flattered her all the more by saying it was not easy to find an adequate frame for a delightful pastel.
