Anna didn't know what Karenin was thinking at the moment, she couldn't keep guessing what the man with a lack of facial expression was thinking all day, and, just as they were going back to the bedroom, Seryozha was going out.

The boy was wearing a short black velvet coat with a lace collar turned up and a small part of the cuffs exposed. The small black leather shoes were shiny, reflecting the boy's slender legs.

"Are you leaving me alone?" Seryozha came up and asked with a slight pout, a little resentment in his bright blue eyes.

Anna trimmed a little curly hair on his forehead and said, "No."

"You've taken care of yourself, very well, Seryozha."

The dimples on Seryozha's cheeks appeared, and he took Anna's hand and said, "I could have done this a long time ago." After speaking, he looked at his father again.

Karenin knew that Seryozha still wanted to get a word of praise. If usual, he would be more inclined to use some rational words to teach the child to learn to be humble, but based on the previous events, he thinks that Seryozha is generally A well-mannered one, relegated to the side of the harmless and slightly cute boy.

Therefore, Karenin gave Seryozha the words he wanted.

"I hope you can continue to maintain this good habit, Seryozha."

Seryozha looked at his father with some surprise. Although he hoped to get affirmation from the former, when it really happened, he was a little flustered and flattered.

But Seryozha is also a lively and confident child after all. After receiving the affirmation, a bright smile appeared on his face again.

Anna rang the bell for the hotel waiter to bring a breakfast for children, while Karenin worked in the small study in the suite.

After Seryozha finished eating, he asked his mother: "I have finished my homework, can I review the book later?"

Anna thought for a moment before replying, "Yes."

Seryozha showed a sweet smile, and he looked at Anna with expectant eyes: "Can you go out for a walk with me?"

Anna planned to ask Srudin later, but she couldn't refuse Seryozha's expectant eyes.After she nodded and agreed to Seryozha's request, she also thought in her heart, since when did she indulge this twisted monster in front of her like this?

Of course, the answers don't matter anymore.

After greeting Karenin, Anna led Seryozha out of the bedroom.

It's spring now, and time flies so fast. When she first came here, she always thought about how to live a life that would best protect her own interests without getting her into trouble.

She was just watching the father and son from a distance in her heart, but now she was pulled out by them and became a part of her life.

All this, Anna thought, as the sun in the garden fell on her face, was indeed not so bad, and one might even say, very good.

"Mother, let me take your hand," Seryozha said with a smile on his face when they were about to walk down a cobblestone path.

"That way, you won't fall."

The sunshine and Seryozha's smile, to which Anna held out her hand, now convinced that she was very happy.In this strange era, because of this big and small, there is a certain sense of belonging, which belongs only to her.

The garden was huge, and Anna felt that Seryozha was like a puppy who had been let out, full of endless energy.Although he was slightly restrained, everything revealed by those blue eyes was clearly curiosity about the world.

Whether it is a flower or a bug can attract Seryozha.

Although Anna was willing to go further afield with Seryozha, she felt a little tired for some reason.

The thought of going to Sludin later rolled over in Anna's mind again.

But now she didn't want to disappoint Seryozha, so Anna said: "Seryozha, I want to bask in the sun here."

"Of course you can, mother, you can sit here, there is a bench here." Seryoz slammed Anna's hand, then took out the handkerchief that was neatly folded in his breast pocket, wiped the bench, Let Anna sit.

Anna looked at Seryozha's meticulous movements and said with a smile: "You miss your father very much, Seryozha."

"Of course, mother, I am my father's son." Seryozha said in a proud tone, and he made a gesture of invitation. His stature was not yet grown up, and his fingers were still tender and round. The jaw line was also childlike and without edges and corners. Seeing this, Anna bent down and kissed Seryozha's forehead.

"This is a reward for the little gentleman."

Seryozha smiled, a little shyly, but proudly.

Maybe a little boy's gentleman spirit is always shown by his mother, whether it is the mother or the boy himself, they will regard this as a major event and carefully place it in memory.

Anna was sitting on a bench, her eyes fell on Seryozha who was carefully studying various flowers in front of her.

The morning sun in spring is not as lazy as the afternoon sun, but it is always comfortable.Just when Anna was a little sleepy and wanted to doze off, a voice sounded tentatively.

"lady?"

Anna looked back.

It was the young girl that day, but there was more than one child by her side at the moment, there were four or five more, both boys and girls, wearing semi-new but decent clothes, it could be seen that the children's Although the family is not as rich as theirs, it is not a child of a poor family.

"It's really you, what a coincidence, I was afraid that I would be ashamed if I called the wrong name." The young girl smiled shyly.Unlike her expression, her actions can be said to be brave.

"Mind if I come to your place?"

"Of course not, Miss, this is not my garden alone." Anna said.From the bottom of her heart, she doesn't like to take the initiative to make friends, but she is not the kind of person who likes to make enemies for herself. What's more, this lady is probably not an ordinary person. It can be seen.Although it is unassuming, it is exquisite in craftsmanship, and poor people cannot buy it even if they have money.

"It's very kind of you, ma'am." The lady smiled again, and sat down on the bench, surrounded by the children.

Seryozha also gave up observing what he said, but when the young woman was sitting beside his mother, he also surrounded her, firmly occupying the position on Anna's right, and sized her up with cautious and puzzled eyes. other side.

"You may call me Valenga, Madame, and what shall I call you?"

"I'm afraid you will call me Anna directly, I will be happier." Anna said with a smile, looking completely like an amiable noble lady.

"If you wish, Anna, please call me Valencia," said the young girl called Valencia, looking a little excited.

"Well, Valenga, I haven't introduced my son to you yet. Come here, Seryozha, and say hello to Mademoiselle Valenga."

"Hello, ma'am." Seryozha greeted politely with restraint.His politeness pleased Valenga very much.

"What a wonderful son you have! Seryozha, you are such a lovely boy!"

"Thank you for your compliment, madam," said Seryozha, smiling.Although he doesn't like being called cute, but this is in front of strangers, he always keeps his father's church in mind, and in social life, his own preferences should not be the reason for social choices.

"Come here, all of you," Valenga said softly to the children, all boys except the youngest and oldest, who were girls.

The older girl, with long brown hair, was prettier, and she kept stealing glances at Seryozha.The other children were pretty even among ordinary people, but compared with Seryozha, they paled a bit.

Seryozha was a year younger than the oldest girl over there, but that didn't stop him from being brilliant.

Seryozha said hello to each of the children. These children are also Russians, but they live more in Moscow, so they have never seen the elegant taste of Petersburg.

It is true that, at Seryozha's present age, elegance was not his thing, but if the boy had such a father, there would still be some Petersburg mannerisms about him.It was a rigorous yet romantic and gentle manner.

"Can we play together in front for a while, Mom." Seryozha asked his mother for advice.

That's what's so cute about him.

Boys of his age want to stay away from their parents the most at this moment. Even if their brains are not mature enough to make judgments, they still want to break through their parents' control countless times and let some whimsical ideas lead them Go forward with your own mind.

Seryozha never did that.

Whether he is alone or with his parents, he can always do his own thing well, but when he is with his parents, he is still a child after all.

"Yes, you can." Anna allowed Seryozha and the five children to continue to observe their flowers, or the ant kingdom, in short, some things that only children can experience fun.

"You look a little ill-humored," said Valenga.

Anna subconsciously raised her hand to touch her face, and asked, "Is it bad?"

"Neither," Valenga hesitated, then went on, "it's just that I'm more sensitive about it."

"Are you taking care of someone who is not well?"

"How do you know?" Hualunga was extremely shocked. When she was shocked, her face, which was not very good-looking, became a little cute because of this natural movement.

"You have the smell of medicine on your body, which has been infiltrated for a long time, and your movements are very gentle. When you walk, you always follow the front foot and follow the back foot. These small movements tell me that there may be a person in your family. Someone who needs your care."

"I must say that your powers of observation are very remarkable," said Valenga with sincerity and reverence.

"You can love the children as if they were your own. You are better than me, Valenga."

Valenga blushed again, and said, "I'm twenty this year, but I haven't found the right person yet. If people say that about me, I'm afraid I'll think it's a mockery, but if you say that, I won't be like that." Think about it."

When Valenga said that she was only twenty, Anna was a little surprised, but she just gave Valenga a soothing expression calmly.

To be honest, Hualunga is not ugly, but she can't be said to be very beautiful either. She lacks the vitality that a young girl should have, but at the same time she is very gentle and quiet.

"There will be." Anna said something emotional.

Then for a moment, as if a broken circuit had been repaired, a somewhat terrifying thought hit her in the blink of an eye.
