Dressing as Anna Karenina's Dame Life

"Anna, come with me to tidy up your clothes." Lydia whispered next to Anna, and the latter nodded, understanding this cryptic statement.

Anna and Alexei told them to wait at the exit of the pavilion, and Betsy followed after thinking about it.

Before going to the bathroom, he met an unexpected person, Vronsky, who had just returned from the racetrack, and beside him was a tall, strong man.

"Hello, ladies." Vronsky quickly calmed down and greeted with a smile.

"Hello, Count Vronsky." Lydia said dryly, unable to say anything at the moment, Anna also greeted in a top hat, but Betsy looked at him with wet eyes. He sighed his regret.

Vronsky's face flushed a little, but he still politely said that it was nothing, and thanked Betsy for her concern.

"It's great that you're fine. I told you this is a barbarian's sport." Betsy said angrily while wiping her tears, as if the person who was excited earlier was not her, but Lee Diya doesn't like her willingness, she can always have such strong emotions, every time they come from the heart, even if they are full of contradictions.

"Yes, I'm very lucky to have no broken bones or even a little scrape, and maybe I should drink a bottle of champagne, for my good luck." Vronsky said in a teasing tone, his eyes bright , When you tell a joke, you can always make people laugh.

Betsy curled the corners of her lips, and she was cheering up again, because Vronsky was still funny and unhurt.

These people were still nagging, and Lydia couldn't bear it anymore, and she politely said that they had to go to the dressing room, and Vronsky smiled.

"Please, ladies."

"Anna, won't you stay?" Betsy stopped her when she saw Anna was about to leave. Because of the obvious nostalgia in Vronsky's eyes, her mood at the moment seemed to be filled with enthusiasm. She felt that she had a mission to bring together two people who she liked and were cute enough.

Vronsky rekindled hope because of Betsy's words. He stared at the woman's face. Today is definitely a bad day, but her appearance is the only good thing. He hopes that Anna can say something What, but he was disappointed because Anna refused.

"I'm sorry, Betsy, I have to go with Lydia." Anna said lightly, without looking at Vronsky holding Lydia's arm hat, said and left.

"Oh, Vronsky, don't be too sad, she just doesn't understand how good you are." Betsy comforted the man, pity him even more, she really couldn't understand Anna's thoughts, a man in his prime Why would a young woman be so stubborn to stay with someone she doesn't love.

In Betsy's view, cute and beautiful things should naturally go together, just like dresses should be displayed at the ball, flowers should have the moisture of the sun, and Karenin's not handsome appearance, serious and even dull Personality is definitely not a candidate for consideration.

If God didn't make the right choice for a beautiful woman at the beginning, then she has this mission, and she was moved by her noble idea.

Vronsky clenched his fists in frustration, he felt a little ashamed, because Betsy's words were more of despair, and when Anna left, she acted like everything was telling him it was useless, everything was useless, If he could intervene a little last time, then now, there is no gap at all. Her charming eyes clearly told him that there is no way, yes, no chance.

"It's too late...too late..." There was such a voice in my heart sighing in frustration.

Women are such strange creatures, and when they open their hearts to you, even a little, men are sure to capture them, it just takes a little time and skill, and Vronsky happened to be born with this talent, But when a woman looks at you with those sensible eyes, it's like a closed shell, you can't see a thing.

"Didn't you go, Mrs. Betsy?" A deep voice rang out. Vronsky looked up and was stunned. It was Karenin. Even if they had only met once or twice, he could not forget each other. He looks tall, thin and cold, definitely not the type he likes to deal with, but it's his wife that he admires. They even have the same name, which is really ironic.

"Oh, Karenin, I'm just going there, and Anna and the others have just left. These are Count Vronsky and his companions, they are all honest and handsome young men." Betsy said with a smile, without realizing it at all. How inappropriate this is.

Karenin stood upright, and the civilian uniform was very beautiful on him. Of course, if you really want to say it, Vronsky's appearance is still more handsome, and the riding suit also shows the muscles and lines of a man, but Voronsky Ji personally felt a little embarrassing, it was mental, he had just lost a game, a man's game, and then he was slapped silently by the woman he admired, he felt ashamed.

Karenin's eyes turned to the three of them, and he greeted the other two with a decent smile.

They chatted for a while, dryly, about the weather or something, it wasn't interesting, but no one pointed it out, Vronsky blushed a little, and at last he took his companion to talk to Karenin and Pei Tessie left with a word.

Karenin withdrew his gaze, turned his head to look at the woman, and smiled, "Could you please give this small bag to Anna? She forgot."

"Oh, yes, Karenin, I'll go right away." Betsy smiled and took the small bag, and walked lightly to the dressing room.

Karenin stood there for a while, his sky blue eyes darkened, but after a while they calmed down again.

After Anna and Lydia came back, there were not many people on the field and in the audience. Karenin was holding Sergei's hand and looking at some horses. They were not specially used for horse racing, but were still in training. Some mares, and a few ponies, stayed beside a light-brown foal. Seryozha looked very happy, and kept chattering to his father, as if to say this. What a beautiful horse.

"Baby, what are you talking about?" Anna bent down and kissed the little guy's face, and the latter raised his face and said excitedly: "Mom, look at these ponies, they are so beautiful, I really want to have one of my own." horse!"

"When you get older, you will have something that belongs only to you. You can name it, whatever you like." Anna smiled and rubbed the boy's hair. She straightened up and looked at herself husband, rolled his eyes.

"It seems that you took Seryozha very well. I can let you two stay for a day in the future."

"Yeah, maybe," he said calmly, and something sounded wrong to Anna, but before she had time to think about it, Karenin had stood up and said they could go home if she got tired.

"Oh, of course, if you've finished work, let's go back." Anna bent her lips, and she lowered her head and squeezed Seryozha's little hand to let him say goodbye to Xiao Ma, who reluctantly complied up.

After saying goodbye to Countess Lydia, Anna and the others got into the carriage and went home.Along the way, Anna tried to say some interesting things to Karenin, observed his expression, and found that there was no difference, so she was relieved, thinking that she might have been overwhelmed just now.

Seryozha talked a lot with his father today. He felt that he was neglecting Anna, so he kept talking to her in the carriage, wanting to tell her, look, he still loves his mother the most. Anna knows the little guy's thoughts, He didn't say anything, just talked to him intimately.

Karenin no longer took the initiative to say anything, he kept talking less, and Seryozha and Anna didn't feel any difference. They talked and asked Karenin's opinion from time to time, and the latter also answered a few words, but obviously did not go deep into it. .

Karenin stared at his wife's face. She was beautiful, young, and caring. She was impeccable both as a mother and as a wife. To be honest, she didn't believe that Anna would have anything to do with that count, but seeing her today At that time, he was still a little disgusted.

Either it was Vronsky himself's lack of rigor, or Betsy's unthought-out words, or just Anna herself.Indeed, she didn't do anything and everything was taken care of well, but he just felt uncomfortable. Karenin never blamed anyone for this discomfort. He just hid it well in his heart. Maybe it will be fine after a long time. Yes, he thought in his heart, having a headache for his own feelings, because it violated some of his concepts all the time, such as respecting his wife, not prying into her thoughts, as a husband, he should not doubt his wife, etc. But at this moment, he really couldn't bear it.

After the day of the horse race, Karenin seemed to become very busy all of a sudden. Although Anna always knew that he was a person who couldn't relax, but this time he went too far. Anna began to feel that something was wrong, but she After much deliberation, she couldn't figure out the reason. In the end, she could only send Kabidonich to the government affairs hall to let Karenin come back earlier, but the news she got was that she refused.

Anna waited anxiously at home, and at last she sighed and decided to go there herself, but just as she was leaving she heard the carriage bell ringing, and it was Karenin who had returned.

"Why are you back?" She asked, reaching out her hand to support Karenin. He looked very bad, his face was very bad, and Anna felt a little distressed.

Sludin jumped down from the carriage, rubbed his hands together to help Anna support Karenin, but was pushed away slightly by the latter.

"I'm fine, it's fine."

Sludin spread his hands helplessly. In terms of stubbornness, he was always inferior to his boss, but Anna ignored this stubborn man. She still supported him with her arms and asked Sludin, "What's the matter, what did he see?" I almost fainted."

"I didn't," retorted Karenin, but was met with a stare.

Anna ignored her, frowned and asked Srudin next to him, "What did he do today?"

"I dealt with documents early in the morning, and then many petitioners came, followed by reports, interviews, annuities, and some important correspondence." Sludin said honestly, and the more he said, the woman His brows furrowed more and more.

"Is everyone in your hall collectively sick? How could he be allowed to do so much by himself?" Anna complained a little, which made Karenin, who always took work very seriously, a little dissatisfied.

"This is my job."

"I know this is your job, but first you have to have a good body, otherwise everything is negotiable." Anna continued to stare at the man, seeing that he was still a little dissatisfied, she touched his cheek and sighed, " Did you eat anything?"

"Three cups of coffee without sugar or milk." Srudin added bravely.

Anna snorted, turned to look at the butler Kearney and said, "Go and invite Darcy, let him come and have a look."

"Yes, ma'am." Kearney withdrew respectfully.

Anna thought for a while, called Anushka over, and told her to cook something hot.

"Don't make it too complicated, let's have some hot soup and bread, softer, oh, the one Xie Liaosha likes, it should be soft enough."

"That's too sweet." Karenin complained aloud.

"Patients have no right to be picky." Anna squinted at him, and still smiled when she looked at Sludin, "Of course, I will remember to prepare another suitable snack for you, Mikhail Vasiliye Vitch."

"You are so kind." Sludin raised a satisfied smile.

When Darcy came with his medicine box, Karenin was enjoying a snack under the service of his wife. He laughed, "It seems that things are not so bad. Kearney is a bit exaggerated."

He patted the dust off his body, put the medicine box aside, and took out his stethoscope for examination.

"I don't think he's exaggerating, Darcy, you haven't seen him just now." Anna sighed and stood aside.

"Come then, Alexey Alexandrovitch, and let me examine you carefully."

Karenin frowned, but in the end he cooperated with Darcy to have an examination. The result of the examination made the doctor very dissatisfied. He put away his stethoscope and said, "I think you have been working too hard recently, and your liver is a little swollen. , and severe malnutrition, as a married man," he paused and said in an exaggerated tone, "it's almost 40 years old, I really admire your careful wife like Anna With care, I can still make myself look like this.

"Is there anything else?" Anna asked worriedly.

"Yes, I think so." Darcy snorted, not taking good care of his patients would not get a good face.

"Have you been sitting too long, how would you like some walks?" Sruddin suggested.

"Oh, that's a nice proposition, but it's not enough." Darcy smiled at the young man.

"Maybe a clean break?" Anna tried to ask.

"Yes, a good proposal." Darcy stroked his beard, he looked at Karenin again, and said in a sincere tone: "To be honest, I think you need a complete relaxation now, and the vacation is obviously It's a good note, you have to understand that people can't stretch themselves too tightly, just like a spring, after a long time, a slight impact will cause accidents."

Sludin imagined that scene in his mind and felt a little scary. He looked at Karenin and said in an extremely sincere tone: "Please be healthy and healthy. I think you are the best boss."

"Because I condoned some of your stupid actions." Karenin said lightly.

Sludin thought about it very seriously, nodded and said: "Yes, if I am miserably replaced by someone else as a secretary, I will definitely be fired, because many bosses can't tolerate their secretaries being better than them. You have a pretty face and a nice personality, so, for me, you have to take care of yourself."

Anna looked at the young man dumbly. The latter smiled suddenly, and asked his superior with his eyes bent, "Isn't that a funny reason? Seeing how you look relaxed now, I'm planning to attend an event recently. Activities, I am exercising my eloquence, how is it, not bad?"

Karenin lowered his eyes and ignored the secretary who was still chattering, thought carefully about the advice given by the family doctor, and finally nodded in agreement. He pressed his brows and thought, maybe he stretched himself too tight, a vacation is just right You can throw that mess out of your mind.

At dinner in the evening Anna announced to Seryozha that they would soon be taking a trip to a German spa for vacation.

"Mom, this is really great!" The little guy squinted his eyes and exclaimed. These days, he always learned that he was detained a little uncomfortable. It would be nice to be able to leave home to breathe some fresh air, let alone go to Germany. Maybe another adventure awaits him.

After dinner, Seryozha, who was still excited, told Anna that he had to pack up, even if there were still two days left, because Karenin could not leave his job suddenly, and there were still some things to hand over.

Anna went to get a blanket, although it was spring, it was still cold at night, not to mention that Karenin was in a period of weakness, which was amazing, this man was sitting at home in such a state of weakness, Anna thought that women would be in awe of men She loves Karenin largely because the other party can give her a sense of security, whether it is Karenin's slender body or sharp eyes, but unexpectedly, when they are weak, those touches and affections will not be at all. The reduction was, and even more, when she put the blanket on his lap.

"Why did you take it out again?" Karenin asked softly. He really felt tired. A chief nobleman came to the province these days. He was always uncomfortable in his heart, and he was naturally negligent in his body.

"You are sick, and I don't want you to make your condition worse because you are weak now." Anna scolded, and gently covered the other party with a blanket, confirming that his skin is warm enough now.

"Sit down, let me lean on for a while." Karenin closed her eyes and said, her almost coquettish tone made Anna smile, and she sat obediently beside her, with the man pillowed on her lap, and she closed her eyes and fell into a light sleep .

The firewood in the fireplace was beeping, beeping, and her fingers were gently stroking the man's hair. Unlike Sergey Sha, they were smoother. The eyeballs under the eyelids seemed to move, listening to the man's even breathing. , Anna is not sure if the other party is having a good dream.

"Mom..." The immature childish voice interrupted Anna's thoughts. She looked down and saw that the man hadn't woken up and was still sleeping peacefully, but his brows were slightly frowned. Stretch out again.

"Mom, is daddy asleep?" Seryozha came over softly, holding a small backpack in his hand. He was going to ask his mother for advice.

"Sleep, your father is too tired."

"Well, let's keep our voices down." Seryozha whispered to his mother.

"Okay."

Karenin didn't sleep for a long time. When he woke up, Anna and Seryozha were still talking. The child seemed to be so energetic forever. I really didn't know who it was. Karenin curled his lips and smiled.

"Are you awake?" Anna noticed Karenin's movements, and the latter got up and patted his cheeks. Then he came to his senses. His hair was a little messy. His eyes fell on Anna's legs, and he pinched his big hands and asked. : "How long have I been asleep?"

"It didn't take long, just half an hour." Anna said gently, and Seryozha ran over, looking at Karenin with bright eyes.

"Father, let me hammer your legs too!"

"I don't need it, rub it for mom."

"Well, that's fine." Sergey Sha responded, taking over his father's work and rubbing his mother's legs. Squeezing with Xiaopang's hands is actually useless, but the child's kindness is always precious.

When going to bed at night, Anna tucked Karenin under the blanket, hugged his arms and turned over to look at him, and asked seriously, "Alexey, do you have something on your mind?"

"No." He replied, with a similar expression as usual, but Anna just felt that something was wrong. She stretched out her hands and pinched his cheeks, and asked again: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure, go to sleep, Anna, it's nothing." Karenin raised the quilt a little, and said in a soft voice.

Anna pursed her lips, knowing that if the man in front of her didn't want to say anything, she couldn't ask anything. She sighed and said softly, "Good night, Alexei."

"Good night, Anna."

The lamp was blown out, Anna blinked her eyes in the dark, because she was hugged into a warm embrace, she wanted to turn around, but was stopped.

"Just sleep like this, Anna." He hugged her and murmured, because this way the skin can be exposed to more temperature, which is a bit strange. When a person lacks a sense of security, he will hug the other party more tightly instead of himself. Karenin is such a person.

Some moist liquid flowed from the corner of the woman's eyes. She pulled out a hand and squeezed the other's tightly. The warmth at this moment actually made both of them feel a little sore.

The author has something to say: Thank you Mo for your reward!

Dude, I can no longer look directly at your narcissism.Mr. Karenin, it's useless to be awkward, he won't digest it unless he says it.
