"You can call me Anna, I think I like it when you call me that." Anna showed a gentle smile, which pleased the always staid Prince Shtcherbatsky, and he looked at Anna with a satisfied look , said kindly: "Then Anna, go and see Kitty, the child hasn't seen anyone for a long time."

"I'll go right away." Anna replied, pulling Tao Li to accompany the Duchess up.

"This is it." The Duchess knocked on the door, and there was a coughing sound from inside the door, but it didn't sound very serious.

Unscrewing the doorknob, the princess called out: "Kitty, Mrs. Karenin is here, my child, you can tell her everything you want to say, and comfort your old mother."

As soon as Anna saw Kitty, she felt distressed. That girl who was as light and bright as a bird had become so pale and thin in a short time. The blush of vitality reveals a sickness, and she is snuggled up on the bed, like a helpless boat in the sea, facing the danger of being overturned by the waves at any time.

Anna walked over a few steps, held the girl's hand, and frowned slightly out of pity, "Kitty, my good girl, why did you torture yourself like this?"

There were tears in Kitty's eyes, which welled up after feeling the temperature in the woman's palm. She hugged Anna tightly, crying, "Anna..."

"Good girl, tell me, tell me if you have any grievances." Anna also choked up, stroking the girl's long hair gently with her fingers, comforting the girl as if she was comforting Seryozha.

"I'm going to die... Anna... I'm going to die!" Kitty sobbed, and as soon as the words came out, the Duchess leaned on her eldest daughter as if she was about to faint, and Tao Li supported her mother, with tears in her eyes .

"Silly girl, don't curse yourself, tell me, I will help you no matter what." Anna let go of Kitty and wiped her tears. The latter held her hand and looked up at her mother and sister. Say, "Mom, Dolly, can you go out first?"

The pleading in her daughter's eyes made the old duchess unable to refuse. She suppressed the pain in her heart and went out with the help of her eldest daughter.

After the door was closed, Kitty looked at Anna, her originally pink lips were now as pale as dry land, trembling unconsciously, she repeated it again, with horror in her eyes.

"Anna, I'm going to die, I can't live anymore..."

"My silly girl, you're just sick, you won't die, you're still young." Anna wiped away the tears from the girl's cheeks, and the girl grabbed her hand again and said eagerly: "They let The doctor examined me. It is said that he is a famous doctor. At first, our family doctor gave me cod liver oil and prescribed iron supplements. Later, he prescribed silver nitrate, but it didn’t work. My mother invited the famous doctor. , he..." Kitty couldn't continue, she felt ashamed, even in the face of Anna, she couldn't say it out, it was really too shameful, it was going to drive her to death.

"What's wrong with him?" Anna asked softly, holding the girl's hand and comforting her.

"He asked for a full-body examination on me." After uttering the sentence with difficulty, Kitty still had more fear in her eyes. He also kept emphasizing that my shyness and dissatisfaction were left over from the barbaric era, and he said that I was insulting his quality as a doctor, but Anna, how can you tell me to endure..." Kitty said no Going down, she bit her lip and trembled all over.

Anna was also taken aback for a moment, she knew how conservative people are nowadays, she had encountered this situation in the hospital before, the company organized a physical examination, but it happened to be a male doctor, at that time she was so anxious that she was about to cry, even more What's more, it is now, when men and women must be careful and pay attention to their wording.

"Kitty, my dear girl, I can understand. When is the doctor coming?"

"I'll come every day after three o'clock in the afternoon, and I'll be there in a while." Kitty sobbed, her eyelids were red and swollen.

"I'll talk to him, good girl, don't cry." Anna said distressedly, and took out a handkerchief to wipe Kitty's tears.

The blond girl looked at each other touched, she choked up, "Anna, this is ridiculous, how can I bear this, mother, she doesn't understand me at all, she said that is a famous doctor, you must listen to him Wrong, I hope I just go like this, so as not to suffer."

"Silly girl, don't say such things." Anna raised her hand to gently cover the other party's lips, she shook her head with pity in her eyes, "You are young, I will help you, I will, no one can force you Don't worry, Kitty."

"I know, I have always hoped so in my heart, otherwise I would not have asked Tao Li to send you a telegram, Anna, I have always believed in you." The girl smiled, but she looked cautious, a little Neither was as cheerful and bright as when Anna left.

Poor girl, she was terrified.Anna took the other's hand, squeezed it affectionately, and smiled, "Don't worry, my good girl."

Tears flowed from Kitty's beautiful eyes again, she choked up and lowered her head, "Actually, I know that taking medicine for my disease is useless, I..." She couldn't continue, she turned her head and looked at her left hand The side quilt and lace were held tightly in her palm by her.

Anna gently held the girl's cheeks, looked into her eyes, and said softly: "I know, Kitty, I'm sorry, when I received your telegram, Vronsky happened to be nearby, I asked him."

"What!" Kitty opened her mouth slightly in surprise, her eyes were rounded, and there were still tears on her cheeks.

Anna softened her eyes, and wiped away tears for the other party with a handkerchief, "I hope Count Vronsky can come in person, although he was rejected, the process is not good." She paused, her eyes flashed , that reminded her of Karenin again, she suppressed the irritability in her heart, and stared at the girl intently, "Kitty, silly girl, no matter what happens, don't torture yourself."

"Why did you tell him these things?" Kitty looked at Anna with complicated eyes, as long as she thought of seeing him again, she felt ashamed and humiliated, which was even more uncomfortable than the cold letter .

"Because you're a good girl, take courage, Kitty, it's all right, put them down, don't torture yourself, my dear, you've been a brave girl."
