Dressing as Anna Karenina's Dame Life

"We can go pick strawberries and roll in the grass," Grisha asked, the first to comment, his big eyes shining.

"No, if you want to dirty your new clothes, absolutely not." Tao Li seriously rejected the boy's suggestion, and the latter hung his head in disappointment.

Seeing this, Anna stroked the boy's hair and said with a smile, "then old clothes are fine, Tao Li,"

The big eyes looked at her mother again, Tao Li shook her head, "You dote on them too much, Anna."

"Okay, dear Tao Li, the children can play happily like this for a few more years." Anna said softly.

The four children all looked at her eagerly. Tao Li felt that she seemed to be a bad person. She smiled helplessly: "Okay, you little troublemakers."

"Great!" The children began to cheer, and Grisha stood up with a blush and a smile on his fat face. He kissed Anna and his mother on the cheeks, and thanked him softly.

Seryozha secretly whispered to her mother, "Mom, if I accidentally stain my new clothes, will you be angry?"

"I'll never be angry with you, but if it gets dirty by accident, can you wash it yourself?" Anna also whispered to the boy.

Seryozha thought for a while, wrinkled his nose and smiled shyly, and said confidently, "I can do it."

Anna held the little guy in her arms and kissed him on the cheek, "But mom still hopes you don't get dirty, we can play in old clothes, roll in the grass or something, as long as you want, I will allow it, Just don’t go to dangerous places and stay safe.”

"I'll remember, mother," Seryozha promised, impatiently waiting for tomorrow.

"What are you talking about?" Darcy came over with a plate of fruit. He just went to check the carriage with the groom, and everything was fine.

"The kids want to go crazy." Anna said with a smile.

"Rolling on the grass!" added Seryozha.

“It was really fun, we did that when we were kids, and the berries on the back hill, and going to the stream and catching fish,” Darcy recalls.

"You're talking!" demanded Grisha, who liked to hear about berries.

"Okay, come here, little guy." Darcy smiled and beckoned. Grisha stood up and ran over, sitting on the man's lap. Everyone was eating fruit while listening to Darcy's reminiscence of those interesting past events.

Tao Li got up early the next morning to prepare. She took out the things she had arranged last night, prepared breakfast with the cook, and asked the guests to get up for breakfast. Everything was in order.

"Mamma, will we have a lot of fun?" said Seryozha, swallowing his white bread for breakfast.

"Yes, honey, I think that would be fun." Anna handed him the milk and told him to drink it quickly.

Tanya helped take care of her little brother Nikolai, Grisha struggled to eat small tomatoes with a fork, Darcy and Tao Li chatted about the things that needed to be prepared, and checked again whether they had brought everything.

After breakfast, the group was ready to set off. In order to facilitate everyone's travel, Oblonsky specially rented a large carriage, which could accommodate three adults and four children. This preparation in advance is proud of everything, but there is one thing that we can't prepare in advance, and that is the weather.

In the middle of the journey, there was a downpour. The coachman reassured everyone that it was just an ordinary thunderstorm, and it would stop after a while. He told them not to worry and just continue on their way.

Seryozha had been drawing the curtains aside to observe the scenery along the way. Since the first thunder, he had been nestled in his mother's arms, and Anna comforted him gently.

"Will they come in?" the boy asked softly.

"No, it will clear up in a while, don't worry." Anna comforted the boy.

"That's good." Seryozha leaned on his mother contentedly. He was looking forward to this trip. His only regret was that his father would not come until a few days later. At that time, he must go fishing with his father, but the father he was talking about Going through an embarrassingly unpleasant event.

The day after Anna and the others left, Karenin arrived at the train station at nine o'clock, 10 minutes early, and he had to pick up Oblonsky, even though the other party said he would go shopping in Moscow first, but Out of etiquette, Karenin still thought he had to go.

The whistle of the train was heard from a long distance. Many people looked at the train with their heads bent. The children with crisp voices shouted loudly, "The train is coming, the train is coming." Karenin looked at the train with gentle eyes. Looking at these children, it reminded him of his own son.

He has grown a lot taller this year, and may be even taller than himself in the future. The father is very proud of his son's sensibility and consideration. There was a sound on the stage as the rails vibrated.

Thick white eyes spread out in the air, and Karenin frowned at the crowd and the noise. He tried hard to find Oblonsky, thank God, it didn't take much effort, Oberon The Skier had come down, carrying a nice black suitcase, with sweat and a smile on his pretty face.

"Here, Alexey Alexandrovich!" Oblonsky excitedly waved the handkerchief in his hand, his charming beard was upturned, and beside him was a man, blue and innocent. Eyes, brown hair, Levin's older brother, Koznyshev.

"Alexey, Alexandrovich!" Koznyshev called out, and gave Karenin a warm hug, he said happily: "I was talking with Schava on the train. I wonder if that person could be you, you know that although there are many Karenins in this world, there are not many Karenins like you." He said some tongue-in-cheek words, but there was no malice in them.

"May I first ask how you two met?" Karenin was a little curious.

"It happened like this," said Koznyshev before Oblonsky could speak, who shrugged his shoulders and winked at Karenin.

"I just left my brother Konstantin Dmitrich and went hunting in Tver province. You know, it's better to wear old clothes when hunting. My brother borrowed me some very practical clothes. And I didn't have time to change them when I got on the train, so the ridiculous thing happened. The conductor insisted that I didn't buy a ticket, and looked at my practical clothes with critical eyes. That idiot kept insisting on driving me away. Get off the train, at this time, Skiva helped me, although what he said was very comfortable, but to be honest, I didn’t quite understand it, so I complained to the conductor again after I had proof, and it succeeded.” Znyshev laughed like a child who succeeded in a prank, not a shallow smile, but a big laugh, shaking his whole body a little.

"I think this fully demonstrates the fact that the passenger's right to choose a seat is too unclear." Karenin officially summed it up.

Oblonsky added: "Then he thought it was necessary to have a good talk with me, that I should give the conductor as much punishment as he did, so we chatted and luckily found out that we both like hunting, funny What’s more, I’ve known his brother for decades but never knew what his brother looked like, because he always traveled around the world and rarely settled down.”

"Good luck." Karenin smiled, thought for a while, and decided to ask in accordance with the tradition of speaking, "So was the journey enjoyable?"

"This is really a funny question." Koznyshev laughed, and looked at Karenin with innocent eyes, as if his staidness was funny enough, Karenin curled up his lips not minding it.

"Very well, I had a nice chat with a Frenchman," laughed Oblonsky, who was naturally kind and funny.

"You can always chat with people from all over the world." Karenin joked.

"Yes, I can talk to a Tatar about food for hours without repeating it." Oblonsky grinned and accepted Karenin's teasing as a compliment.

"What happened to Anna and the others?" Karenin asked again.

"Great. I saw them looking pretty good at the time. It seems that they also had some good gains on the train. Your son has grown a lot taller. I think he will be taller than you in a short time."

"So what do you want to go back to rest now?" Karenin asked with a smile, keeping in mind Oblonsky's praise of Seryozha, although Oblonsky was not a person who could Totally assured guy, but always fun to chat with.

"I want to go shopping and enjoy the ballet at the Moscow Theater or something." Oblonsky blinked and said this in a strange tone, "Koznyshev also wants to go There is a famous art exhibition in Moscow later.”

"It's very famous," Koznyshev added.

Oblonsky is not a bad man in nature, and he tried his best to be a good father and husband, but he was naturally sentimental, and any little thing could touch him, so those women flattered him for a long time, Oblonsky Sky would be generous to buy them gifts, but he wasn't an idiot, so that's why Tanya and the others didn't have one or two more half-sisters or brothers so far.

Karenin believed that Oblonsky was a man unsuitable for marriage. He obviously enjoyed such a life. In his opinion, a man should regard marriage as important as his own career. When choosing a woman to marry He should think about it for no less than a week. Relatives and friends are equally important, as well as the distribution of internal and external affairs after marriage, children's education, and all kinds of troubles after marriage. So Karenin really It was difficult to understand that Oblonsky should have the leisure to have sex with other women.

Although Karenin wanted to say something, he was obviously not God, so he could only euphemistically mention the existence of Taoli and the children.

Oblonsky didn't understand what Karenin meant. He stroked his smooth beard, handed the suitcase to Karenin and said with a smile, "You take it back for me, I have to go shopping."

"Well then, if you don't mind, I'll be waiting for you at the hotel at noon, with my secretary Sludin, because we have to go somewhere in the afternoon."

"Of course, it's all right, Alexey Alexandrovitch, you're my brother-in-law, and it doesn't matter to us that we're a family," said Oblonsky indulgently, with a smile.

"I will stay with art and enjoy the beauty for two hours." Koznishev said intoxicatedly. He is a romantic person, but sometimes he can't help but make some lovely and interesting mistakes in reality.

After the three separated, Karenin went to the government affairs hall, did some paperwork, and then took Sludin away early. He had to order food, and Karenin was used to arriving earlier, which made him feel relaxed. And better control of time.

Karenin is not a person who likes to eat, but doing this job sometimes naturally requires a lot of official entertainment, so he still has some experience in ordering food, and he is a little particular about the selection of dishes and drinks , which obviously also catered to Oblonsky's preferences.

Koznyshev and his artistic beauties had finished earlier than Oblonsky, and had arrived at the agreed hotel, where Karenin and his secretary were already waiting.

"How do you see it?" Karenin still started with Feichuang's traditional cultural form. Koznyshev smiled, his eyes rolled up, "very happy, but the time is short."

"This is my secretary, Mikhail Vasilyevich Sludin, and this is Sergey Koznishev Levin, a learned and romantic writer." Karenin told the Two people introduced.

"Hello, Mikhail Vasilyevich, but Alexey Alexandrovitch, I prefer you to add the adjective, poet, to writer, and I am a poet-writer."

"Hello, romantic poet and writer." Sludin bent his eyes and shook the other's hand.

For lunch there was fresh sea bass, asparagus, and for a main course a steak, tender and fatty, and a fine wine that Oblonsky would have liked.Everything was in Karenin's plan, except for one thing, or one person, that is, Oblonsky met Vronsky by chance and invited him to dinner.

Vronsky also looked at Karenin in embarrassment. He didn't expect that Oblonsky had already made an appointment with Karenin. He regretted it a little, but it was obviously too embarrassing to find an excuse to leave now.

Sruddin looked at the man in front of him, both his uniform and facial features were perfect, he was a handsome man.

"Alexey Alexandrovitch, you don't know him yet, this is Count Vronsky, this is my brother-in-law, lucky one, Karenin, this is his secretary Sludin, And this one is the lucky one I picked up on the train, Sergei Koznishev Levin, an interesting person." Oblonsky introduced to both parties in a friendly manner.

Sludin observed a trace of stiffness on his boss's face, but soon, the latter smiled again and said, "We know each other, Skiva."

"Yes, we know each other," said Vronsky dryly, greeting Koznyshev.

"This is really great. You know that if you get along well at dinner, the food will be more delicious." Oblonsky said happily, but obviously, the two men present didn't think it was a good idea. Would be a nice lunch.

The pies were delicious, the Marie-Louis soup was excellent, the tableware was exquisite, Oblonsky and the Koznyshev were very chatty and lively, but Vronsky still felt restless because of Karenin's manner.

It is not a shameful thing for him to be in love with the other party's wife. Even if he can pursue Anna, he will not be accused, but will think that he is an attractive man, but it is embarrassing. It's because he didn't succeed, not to mention the failure of envy, but more because of the humiliation of being a man that surged in his heart. How could he face me so calmly, as if I was an insignificant person.

From the embarrassment at the beginning to the anger now, Vronsky was very dissatisfied with Karenin's attitude, as if he didn't need to pay attention at all, and he didn't need to have any restless behavior when he saw him.

But Vronsky was wrong. Karenin has always been good at forbearance, otherwise he would not have reached his current position at a young age. Only a few people who are familiar with Karenin will understand the emotions hidden under the calm surface. Rudin was precisely that one.

He was slightly surprised to see the look on his boss's face, which was strange. Although Karenin was talking to that Vronsky with a smile, his eyes were very cold.

The young secretary put his eyes on Vronsky and blinked, still a little puzzled.

Vronsky, who had been in high circles for a long time, was naturally aware of Sludin's special gaze, and he put down his fork and asked in a friendly manner: "Do you have anything to say to me, Mr. Sludin."

"Oh, that's it." Mr. Secretary was annoyed in his heart because he was caught, and at the same time he was thinking about useful topics in his mind.

"I just want to ask you what you think about the Russification of Poland."

"This is not a simple question, but anyway, it shows that our country is definitely a civilized nation, and only a more civilized nation can assimilate another nation." Vronsky said with a smile, he Good at lubricating the atmosphere and reducing hostility with this kind of discourse.

Oblonsky laughed a few times and said something else. In some respects, Oblonsky is a very flattering guy. Even if what the other party said is not of much value, it is because of his popularity. The reason, people like to be with such a person, friendly and gracious.

"What about you, sir?" Sludin turned his head and asked his boss, at the same time expressing a very obvious meaning with those clear eyes, you have to give me a very valuable conclusion, don't embarrass me.

Karenin ignored him, thought for a while, and said: "I think the Russification of Poland can only be successful through some tough measures. This depends on how our authorities implement it. The power of the people should not be underestimated. The blindly soft policy is sometimes just scratching the itch, but it won't have much effect."

"What about you, Count Oblonsky?" Sludin looked at his superior admiringly for a while, then turned to look at Oblonsky opposite and said with a smile. He received a satisfactory answer, So he is willing to listen to other people's opinions, although he still thinks that his boss is the one who speaks the best.

"I, ask me these things I don't know, but I agree with Alexey Alexandrovitch, he's always right," said Oblonsky with a smile, his pretty eyes sparkling, He is not a person who likes to insist on his own opinions, and he always treats others with the kindest attitude. It can be seen from the newspapers he subscribes to, liberal newspapers, and he subscribes to these newspapers not because of his own beliefs, but because of the majority Everyone subscribes to it, so Oblonsky always easily changes his opinion, takes the side of the majority, and even himself is convinced, yes, I think so, yes.

Koznyshev added a joke, "Obviously from the theory of art, talent is very important, so to assimilate a nation, we should have more children and raise more children, trying to use population to assimilate another nation, but now, we Of those present, it was clear that Schahua was committed to the cause, so tell me, Schiahua, when is your fourth child going to be born? Our true patriots and smart guys."

"Maybe this year." Oblonsky didn't mind being teased. He blinked and said, and as soon as he finished speaking, there were several bursts of laughter, which even amused Karenin.

Koznyshev raised his glass and said: "Respect the patriot Scheva!"

The glasses were bumped together, and Vronsky glanced at Karenin, and Karenin looked at him also, smiling, but Vronsky preferred to believe that it was a mockery.

Vronsky fully understood how unpleasant the meal was, and he left as soon as the meal was over.

After saying goodbye to Oblonsky and Koznyshev, Karenin took Sludin to complete their visit this afternoon. It was still the same Sludin who said that he might change his socks only once a week and his feet stink. Your Excellency the Minister.

"Have you any trouble with that Count Vronsky?" asked Sludin cautiously.

"No, there's nothing wrong with it," Karenin said calmly.

He was lying, the first reaction in Sludin's mind, but when Karenin was unwilling to talk about one more thing, it was obviously marked as a label that a good secretary should not continue to ask, because it would be impossible to ask. Bai Wen, Karenin's mouth is like a clam shell, and he can't pry it open when he doesn't want to speak. Moreover, through years of secretary experience, he knows that he will get more jobs that should not belong to him in the future. A narrow-minded boss is really tiring, the young Mr. Sludin sighed in his heart.

Later, the young secretary accidentally learned that Count Vronsky had once admired his boss's wife. He used his clever brain to turn out Count Vronsky's appearance, and then looked at her critically. My boss is tall, his hair is not thick enough, and his speech is not funny at all. The conclusion is that Mrs. Karenin is very discerning, and my boss is the best. God is very fair. A good boss should have a good wife.

The author has something to say: Thank you Taozhi for the reward!

It's done, so breathe a sigh of relief.Oblonsky assured Karenin that he would take care of those things in the countryside, but obviously the situation is not optimistic. Mr. Sludin's admiration index for his boss has soared. Regarding the question of Mr. Secretary's wife, Mizuki I'm still struggling, because I personally prefer to pack the secretary and take home the little buns.

64

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, almost the whole basin fell down, and the thunderbolt hit the roof of the carriage, which was shocking. Seryozha nestled in his mother's arms with some fear, and Anna hugged him tightly. Liao Sha and Darcy said some jokes in order to ease the atmosphere, which temporarily relieved the tension of the children.

"Don't be afraid, children, the rain will stop soon." Taoli comforted, sitting in her arms was the youngest Nicholas, next to Grisha and Tanya, the two children were hugging tightly Mother does not have strong arms.

Although she said so, she was not sure, after all, she didn't know much about these things. When Tao Li was a young girl, she would almost turn pale with fright in such thunderstorm weather, but after becoming a mother, No matter what terrible things happened, it was in the mother's nature to show her strongest side before the children, which Oblonsky, the husband, could not give to the children.

Two hours later, the heavy rain finally stopped. Just like what the coachman said, it was just a thunderstorm. The air after the rain was unusually fresh, but it also smelled like mud. She opened the curtain of the car, and Anna looked outside. The world has been flushed again, with shiny leaves and bright flowers, and there are no birds standing on the treetops, but cheerful birdsong.

Seryozha in his arms moved because of Anna's movements, and a sleepy voice sounded lazily. He had just fallen asleep because of nervousness. The boy felt that being in his mother's arms was the safest, even if it was still outside. It is raining heavily.

"Mom, has the rain stopped?"

"Stop it, the outside is beautiful." Anna said with a smile.

The boy rubbed his eyes, yawned, turned his head to look outside with his disheveled hair, blinked his sky blue eyes, and said with a smile, "It's so beautiful."

Tanya was also drawn to it. She had been knitting a tape while Seryozha was asleep, and was about to finish it now.

The two little guys huddled together, looking at the outside world, smiling sweetly.

Shiny leaves, crisp birdsong, and a variety of ripe berries, children in the city rarely see such a vibrant outside, the sky is blue and shiny, like gems, facing the afternoon sun It seems that colorful apertures can still be seen.

The coachman yelled and yelled outside, the carriage stopped, and it had arrived.Darcy got out of the carriage first, and the coachman helped to bring down the luggage. The children rushed down without hugging each other. Only Nicholas was still asleep in Taoli's arms.

Not everything is good after the rain, that means there is still mud and puddles, which is not good in the countryside, Anna looked at the mud splashed on Seryozha's white socks in confusion.

A few people carefully crossed the dirt path and entered the yard. It was a very clean small farmyard. A woman with a long face came out of the yard. She looked more serious. She was a stewardess here. Help me take care of it here, Tao Li is talking to her, Anna and Darcy are in charge of making arrangements, and ask the two maids who follow behind to put things away and spread the quilt.

At first, Anna felt that the house was really nice, quite spacious, and the environment was quiet. The curtains and tablecloths in the house were all temporarily new, and the adults were quite satisfied, because it had just rained and there was mud everywhere, so The children could only play in the yard for a while, Seryozha felt that it was not interesting, so he ran to help, Tanya took Grisha and Nikolai, and Anna and the others arrived when everything was packed and ready for dinner. Found a big problem.

The problem of the house was like that of Oblonsky, who only decorated the surface, but failed to consider some essential things.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when a few people came, but it was only when they were cooking in the evening that there were no shops nearby. Oblonsky didn't even prepare too many ingredients, and the tank was not filled with water. Even the bathroom is broken.

Even the dexterous Tao Li couldn't conjure up a table of delicacies in the face of lack of ingredients, and the children growled hungry.

At this time, the round-faced Darcy came in handy. He temporarily fed the children with the little things left in the carriage, and then took a lantern and said that he would go to the village chief. The horse-faced woman had died. I went back, but I guess she can do something.

Unable to cook for the time being, Anna and Tao Li took the children to sit on the small stool at the gate of the yard and chat.

"Don't worry, Dolly, Darcy will find a way."

Tao Li still frowned tightly, but smiled wryly after hearing Anna's comfort, "Thank God, your husband Alexey Alexandrovich thought of letting Darcy come over in advance, otherwise the children would have accepted."

"Mom, when can we have dinner?" said the youngest Nicholas, rubbing his belly aggrievedly, which made Tao Li feel even more sad.

"Soon, soon we will be able to eat."

Anna wanted to comfort Tao Li, but couldn't find any words for a while. Seryozha held his mother's hand and said to Nicholas in a sensible way: "Let's play first, and Uncle Darcy will find food later. We'll have dinner right away."

"Yes, Nicholas, don't be sad, look, there are so many stars here, we can come and play hide-and-seek." Tanya wiped her eyes and said with a smile, the fat Grisha dug out a piece of chocolate from his pocket Sugar, peeled off and stuffed into Nicola's mouth.

"Eat this first, you won't be so hungry after eating."

Dolly kissed Grisha on the cheek and praised him for being a good brother. The latter blushed and smiled shyly.

Seryozha organized the children to play together. Right in front of the two women, Dolly bent slightly, with her hands on her knees. There were still some tears in her eyes, but seeing the joy of the children, she also felt much better.

"Tori, everything will be fine."

"Yeah, everything will be fine, I just forgot how careless Skiva is." She murmured.

Anna hugged the girl and felt sorry for her, it is impossible to explain, Oblonsky is a good man, and he did his best to make the hut more beautiful, but obviously there was no plan to make it more beautiful. Practical things have caused a group of people, big and small, to suffer. Fortunately, there is Darcy.

In Petersburg, Karenin naturally didn't know that Anna and the others were suffering, but he was not very good. The stubborn minister still refused to support Karenin's point of view. Sludin's lips were trembling in anger, and he muttered in his heart Seeing that the Minister is as stubborn as a cow, but this time he was served with refreshments, but he still complained that the refreshments were too sweet when he came out.

"Doesn't that gentleman know that too much sugar will make people fat, and he can't think clearly." Sludin has been chattering and irritable recently, and the hot weather is also a big reason.

"You go back first, Mikhail Vasilyevich." Karenin said calmly.

"Aren't you going home?" Sludin asked curiously.

"Later, I'll go back later, I have to go for a walk and think about the problem." Karenin replied, and began to clasp his hands together. Sludin knew that this was a sign that he was not at peace. Once asked: "Don't you want me to accompany you?"

Karenin glanced at his secretary and said calmly, "No, you can go back first, organize all the materials you will use tomorrow, and bring them to me in the morning."

"Are you still planning to give up?"

"Yes, don't give up, why should you give up? Things are progressing a bit, haven't they?" Karenin smiled, a confident smile familiar to Sludin, and he grinned and said, "Good luck .”

After Sludin left, Karenin hesitated for a while. He was actually not as sure as he showed, but he was used to hiding them. After all, the current position was not picked.

With the sound of flapping wings and cooing, several pigeons flew past the eaves and onto the sidewalk, and Karenin thought of a place.

The children were breaking bread and feeding the pigeons on the square. There were couples and playful children on the benches. A pair of elderly people were resting there on crutches. Karenin picked a clean bench and sat down. He began to habitually sit with a straight body, but soon he felt that it was a bit silly, because some children not far in front pointed at him, looked at his straight suit and the leisurely environment around him, Ka Lenin was a little embarrassed, he was about to get up, but a three-year-old child stumbled and ran in front of him.

There are a few freckles on her fair and tender face, her braids are tied, she is wearing a small pink skirt, revealing her white and fat calves, looking at herself with a pair of big blue eyes, and grinning.

"Here you are." The chubby little hand reached out, and half a piece of bread was handed to Karenin. The latter was stunned for a moment, and the little girl stretched forward and said with some doubts, "Don't you want it?"

"Thank you, I don't want it." Karenin regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, because the little girl pursed her lips, looking like she was about to cry.

Karenin has a shortcoming or weakness, that is, he can't see the tears of children and women. This three-year-old milk baby successfully made Mr. Karenin, who has always been in the political arena, show helplessness. None of the envoys, whom Sruddin calls a heart of stone, have done.

"I want." Reluctantly stretching out her hand, the little girl happily put the slice of bread on Karenin's big hand. She blinked her eyes and said in a childlike voice, "When you come to the square, you have to feed the pigeons, otherwise they will die." I don't like you anymore."

"I'm just sitting here, why should they like it?" Karenin also asked.

"Because they are beautiful and like bread." The little girl said innocently with her big eyes open.

"You are a lovely little girl," said Karenin cheerfully.

"Thank you, you are also cute, although it looks a little funny." The little girl said with a childish smile, waved the chubby hand and ran away, a group of tile gray pigeons flew up in fright , the little girl giggled and ran into the arms of her parents.

Karenin stared at the piece of bread in his hand, the corners of his mouth curled up, and there was half a cute tooth mark on it. He raised his fingers and tore a few pieces of bread and threw them out. A few gray pigeons flew over and pecked. eating.

Looking at this group of pigeons, Karenin suddenly remembered what Anna said. She once asked him if he knew what she liked. She said it was black tea and small cakes, and she just sat on the square casually. Some understanding, it feels really good.

His mind was empty, amidst the cooing of the pigeons, he began to miss his wife and son, and the desire to see them was so strong.

In the countryside of Moscow, the children were sweating from playing and sat on the stool waiting for their mother to wipe off the sweat. Tanya took care of Grisha like a little mother. Anna smiled and said, "My dear Tanya is really A good sister."

Tanya showed a shy smile, while Grisha stood up and kissed her sister on the cheek to express her gratitude. As the second child in the family, Grisha has always received the least attention, and the mother has to worry about her body. Weak Ni
