Karenin went back to the bedroom.

Only Seryozha was still asleep, and it was not yet seven o'clock. He played with Grisha for a long time yesterday. Because of the incident between Schieva and his wife and the children's feelings, Karenin did not stop Seryozha. Play around with Grisha and the others, but he will wake him up at a quarter to seven and tell him to wash.

Morning reading is always necessary. You should not give up because of certain things. You can move it to the back when it is appropriate, because once a person develops a habit and does not do the established things one day, then the rules and habits will soon be forgotten. break in.

Karenin heard voices in the bathroom and looked over to see Anna just coming out.

She had just washed her face and wet a strand of hair on her cheek.

In the morning's eyes, his wife's face looked a little familiar and a little strange.

Karenin not only doubted, did they really live together for seven years?

Before that, he had always been independent of his family, but not now.

"what happened?"

When Anna did not see Karenin in the morning, she was actually relieved.

She lay on the bed for a while, and finally decided to get up. After she came out of the bathroom, she saw Karenin returning at some time, and it seemed that there was still a wisp of morning mist.

The person's hair and appearance were a little hazy by the mist, and he looked at her with strange eyes.And this strangeness made Anna feel a very strange feeling in her heart, so she took the initiative to speak, as if she had forgotten all those things yesterday, like an ordinary gentle wife.

But what she didn't know was that her unintentional action now was like a thorn, deeply piercing Karenin's heart.

"No, nothing." Karenin said flatly.

"I will go to Skiva's study to stay for a while and deal with some of my official documents. Please wake up Seryozha at [-]:[-] and urge him"

"I will."

Seeing that Anna agreed, Karenin nodded, and then left the bedroom, completely different from usual.

Anna frowned, and the soft and doubtful expression on her face was completely gone.

She understood better than anyone else that the expression just now was the most common expression seen by others.

Karenin was called a cold politician for no reason, but, before this, she never seemed to have thought that one day, she would be treated with such an attitude.

She wants to criticize this man, and according to her selfish personality, she will definitely think of all reasons to criticize him.But the truth is, she didn't think about it that way.

During breakfast, the atmosphere was so strange that it was so silent that even the youngest Nicholas noticed it, but he didn't know why.

Nicholas, who was timid by nature, didn't dare to ask anything, so he could only eat his own food in silence.After all, Grisha was a little older. He sat next to Tanya and asked his sister for answers in a very low voice, but only got a faint warning look.

Grisha pursed his lips, and looked at Seryozha again, but the latter's eyes were only on his parents, and for a while he lowered his eyebrows and ate his food.

"Did my uncle and aunt fight like my parents? But they didn't break anything!"

No one could help Grisha with this doubt, so he frowned the whole time, so that Dolly worried that he was not feeling well.

"I just want to know if uncle and aunt have quarreled like you did?" Grisha said weakly.

All four adults have varying degrees of body stiffness.

"Grisha, can you just finish your food?" Tanya told her brother in a slightly harsher tone, who also realized that maybe he had said something wrong, so he mumbled an apology, He buried himself in the pile of food.

Dolly looked at Anna, who looked at Seryozha.

Seryozha never raised his head, but silently and slowly refused his own food.

Karenin was like his son, only faster.

Tao Li looked at Skiva again, this is a habitual action, after all, Skiva is her husband, but after she did it subconsciously, she regretted it a little.

Seeing his wife's actions, Skiva's originally sluggish face turned red with excitement at this moment, because he thought he had received a signal of reconciliation.

Karenin said after breakfast that his secretary Sludin would come and that he had to visit a local official.

"Oh, of course, Alexey Alexandrovitch, don't worry, you'll be back for dinner?"

Karenin glanced at a certain place, and then said: "Not necessarily, please don't prepare mine."

"Okay, okay, I'll tell Tao Li." Skiva nodded, he couldn't think of anything else now, only immersed in the joy that Tao Li had released the hint of reconciliation to him.

Karenin naturally knew what Skiva was happy about.He thought that it was unlikely that Tao Li forgave him, but Schahua was right. For a woman like Tao Li, she would always soften her heart if she softened and begged her appropriately. Reconciliation was only a matter of time.

It would be too cruel to say this, but it is also true.

He told Anna not to worry about this matter before, on the one hand, because he believed that in this era, the price to pay for divorce was too great for women, and the current situation might not be too bad.On the other hand, he realized that Anna was somewhat sensitive to this matter. If emotion was stronger than reason, then it would definitely not be a good thing for her personally or for their family.

Karenin took leave of Skiva for a while, and he went to Seryozha and Anna. Everything seemed to be as usual, at least, the parents behaved as usual and harmoniously when they were together, but Seryozha just children.

"Honey, why don't you go play with Grisha and Nikolai for a while?" Dolly asked her nephew softly after kissing her nephew's cheek.

"I want to finish my homework, Auntie," said Seryozha, but there was a trace of sadness in his eyes.

"You are unhappy, can you tell your aunt?" Tao Li asked.

"I'm all right, auntie, I'm fine, don't worry," said Seryozha.

Of her three children, except for Tanya, the other two are somewhat naughty, but in any case, they are not as sensible and considerate as Seryozha. Some words are more difficult.

Taoli sighed.

"Maybe you'd be more willing to tell your mother."

Seryozha's eyes widened with pleas, and he carefully took Dolly's arm, and said: "Please don't tell mother."

"Why is that?"

Seryozha shook his head: "I don't want her to worry about me."

"Just, please."

Tao Li couldn't bear to refuse Seryozha's request, so she nodded.Seryozha gave her a hug and said again that he was well.

When Dolly came out of the bedroom, she saw Anna standing in the corridor with some cookies.

"Anna." Tao Li opened her mouth, not sure whether to say it, but the latter just nodded slightly.

"I see."

Seeing Anna's back, Tao Li didn't know whether to be happy or sad.Vaguely, she also blamed herself a little, because she remembered some things she talked about with Karenin last night, maybe it was because of them that they became what they were this morning.

Maybe she shouldn't talk too much. After all, there are tens of thousands of families in this world, and every family has their own way of getting along. Her idealization may really be just an ideal.

However, there is still one place where she is still unwilling, which is a pity. She thinks that she has seen the feeling from Karenin and Anna that they are not husband and wife because of their equal status.It's just that there may be a knot that hasn't been untied, so it's not smooth.

When Anna came in with the cookies, Seryozha was not doing his homework, he was resting his hands on his pillow, looking at the table with some sadness,

"Are you crying?" Anna whispered.

Seryozha was taken aback, said: "No," and added, seeing who was coming, "I have nothing unpleasant, mother."

Anna put the cookies on the table, she didn't want to say soothing words, and at the moment, she was really not in the mood to think about what kind of skillful words to use, which could avoid contact with others and resolve all these, she just , Relying on instinct, because recalling himself, he regarded the current Serge Sha as the former self, and then hugged the latter in his arms.

Seryozha was a little surprised at first, and then couldn't help but hugged his mother tightly, but he said nothing.

Anna gently stroked Seryozha's back, as if protective, dispelling something uneasy for the child.

Seryozha felt the gentleness of the person holding him, and he felt relieved, a slight grievance rose from his chest, and then he couldn't help asking: "Did you quarrel with your father?"

"We didn't quarrel, but there was something wrong." Anna said truthfully, she knew it was pointless to coax now.

Seryozha grabbed Anna's clothes tightly, and then asked with some fear, "Are you going to separate?"

"No." Anna said, but she didn't know it in her heart.

Her words soothed the boy's heart.

"I don't want you to be separated. Grisha told me that his parents are likely to be like this. He asked it from a servant." Seryozha said with some fear.

"None of us will."

In fact, before this, Anna was completely unsure whether she would follow Karenin's advice and do nothing in the face of Tao Li's situation, but what happened this morning and more factors led her to finally choose Karenin. Lenin's suggestion.

Maybe Karenin was right, maybe she just realized it because of Taoli's actions in the morning, maybe it was easier, just told a beautiful lie like Seryozha comforting Grisha, but these are not important for the time being .

"Yes." Seryozha nodded. "I told Grisha so, but now, mother, I believe it will be so."

"So don't worry, now, you can eat some cookies before you do your homework."

Seryozha smiled: "I will finish my homework quickly today, and I will review my books, so that you will reconcile quickly."

There is innocence in the child's words, and Anna obviously has more than 100 ways to refute, and even laugh at such illogical and innocent comforting words, but she doesn't.In fact, she was reassured and thought to herself, "Maybe, that will help."

This absurd idea stayed in her mind for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, she began to fall into another kind of thinking, thinking about the current problem like a calm adult.
