A Noble Marriage - Chapter 111

After a while, the 13-year-old approached her and asked, “you seem to be dissatisfied with this.” Asked vorensky, in a low voice.

“What?”

Vorensky indicated with his lips the direction of his sister’s departure, and then he shrugged: “it’s not a big deal, is it?”

Even though he said so, there were some young people’s postures. To be honest, it was only half a year ago that Wollensky entered this circle. After he turned 12, his sister thought that he could look at him with a mature look.

Vorensky was eager to be recognized, so even if something in the circle had surprised him at first, he would now tell himself that it was no big deal. Everyone will go through it. It is a sad thing for a beautiful woman with money and status if only her husband loves her.

A single woman needs to be reserved, but once married, a lot of love will not damage her reputation, and universal love will make her very attractive in the society. Wollensky’s mother was like this when she was young, but now they are just gradually accepting and loving the laws of the society.

Anna understood what vorensky meant, and she was a little surprised. But combined with vorensky’s unconcerned gaze at the moment, she didn’t argue about anything, just a smile of indifference and apology.

Vorensky looked at her suspiciously.

“Would you like some cake?” Anna asked.

Her performance was so sincere that it was almost impossible to feel the intention hidden in it, so she only received an angry look.

“No, thank you. I’m not a child anymore Said Wollensky stiffly.

He rolled up a wrinkled expression, because he didn’t want to show unpleasant emotions, which is immature, but can’t do it completely. So he decided to leave Anna’s side so that he could be more comfortable and not be emotional like a baby.

Anna watched the boy leave and joined the Duchess of miyakhenki’s conversation. She took another look at the direction of sister Wollensky’s departure. Finally, she blinked and ate a cookie herself.

At 3:30, an unusual person came to their tea party.

“You are a rare visitor.” Said Betsy with a smile, her charming eyes always like to be used on all people, although she thought that Karenin was boring and tight, she did not intend to skip him.

Karenin gave the Duchess of petsey a kiss on the back of her hand.

He didn’t like the frivolous lady, but he had to admire her social skills. There’s no need to show your preferences.

Karenin straightened up. He swept the room politely and quickly caught his wife’s position in that short time. The latter’s big eyes were looking at him in some surprise.

Karenin did not intend to smile. What he intended to show was a social smirk, but when his eyes touched his little wife, he could not help becoming sincere.

“Your rembreyer seems to have been a great success, and I think next time you will be the best tea hostess in Petersburg.” He cocked his lips and complimented Betsy, but his eyes still fell on his wife.

Betsy chuckled.

She likes to receive compliments, especially on such things as clothes, beauty, and tea parties. But she was not like a 14-year-old girl who went to the dance for the first time. She was moved by a word of praise or encouragement. She swore that the person in front of her must be the best and most lovely person in the world.

“Come on, sit down with your wife and talk to us.” Said Betsy affectionately that she was such a good master, taking full care of the newly married couple.

“How did you get here?” Anna asked in a low voice after Karenin sat down. Although her voice was small, she could still feel the joy in it.

“Everything in the Department was dealt with early.” Karenin replied, then turned to the ambassador’s wife and talked to her.

Anna bit her husband’s lips a little bit closer to her.

Karenin felt his wife approaching him and, out of politeness, moved aside. But before long, his wife came closer to him.

So Karenin had to stop talking for a moment and take a look at his wife and ask if she had anything to do. The latter just opened his twinkling eyes and laughed contentedly at him.

Karenin turned his eyes, this time no longer foolishly thought that his wife felt crowded, so he moved to the side. Although, logically, he didn’t think it was meaningful at all, his wife clearly liked the narrow, crowded distance.

If they were not still in front of a large number of people, Anna felt that she could not help but kiss Karenin.

Of course, if your husband changed his schedule for more than ten years for you, wouldn’t you feel honored?If she put her hand on Karenin’s arm at this time, it would be too sticky, so Anna could only suppress this impulse and express her joy by constantly approaching each other.

“I went to the dressing room and then we got a new partner, didn’t we?”

Wollensky’s sister came back, her hair and skirt were not disordered at all, but the blush on her face was deeper, her eyes were still bright, and she looked like a flower, with a different brilliance.

“Yes.” Petsy agreed, sweetly, as she introduced Karenin to vorensky’s sister.

Karenin had a few words with vorensky’s sister, and the Duchess of miyakhki had mentioned a bill which they were talking about at this time.

The Duchess of miyakki had no intention of talking about such a serious matter, and in fact, she didn’t care much, but she liked Anna and was happy to talk to her husband about something the latter liked.

They exchanged views.

Karenin knew what they wanted to hear, like Duchess miyakki. He liked politics, bills. Talking about these was exactly what he liked, but he also understood that he was dealing with some ladies. If he comes by his own temperament, the conversation will either end up unhappy or embarrassed because it is boring. So he moved out of that set of words, cleverly perfunctory to each other.

They sat for another half an hour, when it would be impolite to say goodbye. Karenin privately asked Anna if she wanted to go back together. Anna gave him a positive answer.

Karenin said goodbye to the hostess.

“Won’t you stay for dinner?” Asked Betsy, looking as if he was trying to keep them.

Just as Karenin was about to offer a good excuse in his mind to refuse politely, vorensky’s sister said it for them.

“Oh, Betsy, don’t forget that they are newlyweds, not like us.” Said Wollensky’s sister, in a different way, who still seemed to be in high spirits.

Betsy laughed, too. She exchanged a look with vorensky’s sister that only they understood. Then she turned to Anna and Karenin.

“I look forward to having dinner with you next time.”

Karenin once again kisses Betsy on the back of his hand, which makes Anna take his arm and leave together.

The coachman of Karenin’s house was waiting at the door, the grey horse wagged its tail, and the Tatars opened the door for them.

As the carriage began to move towards home, Anna looked at Karenin for a moment, and the latter asked her.

“In fact, I have an unusual idea to tell you.”

The man put on the posture and expression of listening attentively.

“I didn’t realize it was going to be a problem, but I found out today that maybe I should make myself clear first,” Anna said after caressing the folds of her skirt with her hands. Even if most people think it’s ridiculous and inappropriate, I want to tell you

“Alexis, I don’t want a third person in our marriage.”

Anna saw Karenin blink her eyes slowly, and she sighed gently.

“I know it’s not to blame for most people, but…”

Anna did not finish, her words were gently interrupted by Karenin.

“If you mean what you saw today from the Duchess of pettesey, Anna, I have to make my point again. Even if this is the case in this society, some customs will not be publicly criticized, and even some people secretly praise it. I have no intention of criticizing them. All I can do is to abide by my own principles and beliefs. As I have always believed in the sanctity of marriage, once combined, there should be no force to separate a couple except death. ”

Karenin stopped for a moment. His blue eyes were so focused that they reflected two little ones. There was nothing else.

His words are calm and organized, and his eyes are calm and authoritative.

“Maybe you have some misunderstanding before, and I think that since you are quite concerned about this issue, I’d better make it clear to you completely.”

“What I mean by death and separation at this moment is not only the death of the body, but also the highest will of man.”

“If you have any questions about our relationship and feelings at this moment, or don’t like it, you can tell me now. If this moment passes, Anna, I will not accept any amendment or appeal

“Maybe it’s because I just grew up.” Anna said with a smile that she found it better to talk to these two children than to chat with some of her peers. After all, they are always the more real one.

“We are not fools.” Andrea muttered, but did not go on with the subject.

“You should leave now.”

“You’re a little heartless, you know? Andre. ” Anna pretended to be surprised and said, “after you make up with your good friend, are you ready to let me go?””We don’t have much time.” Andre bit his lip and looked like he was about to cry.

“Oh, don’t worry, honey. I’m just kidding.” Anna quickly pacifies each other, and then the two children wink at her.

“I know.” Said Andrea, with a sly smile.

“I won’t forgive you. You are a bad boy.” Anna said with a smile. Andrea blinked and then gave her a kiss on the face.

“Thank you.”

“Thank you very much, Mrs. Karenin.” Charlie kisses Anna on the other cheek.

“You are very lovely.” “You shouldn’t have got married so early. You just have to wait five years,” Charlie said, looking a little sorry

Andre said, with no expression, “although my uncle is a bit stiff, don’t try to hit him. Or I’ll fight you, and even if we’re best friends, it won’t change. ”

“See, he’s a babe.” Charlie blinked at Anna. “He loves your husband.”

Anna kept laughing at Charlie’s words, and Andrea rolled her eyes. “That’s my uncle. Although he is old-fashioned, serious, uninteresting, rigid, impersonal, and workaholic, he is my uncle

When Karenin came back in the evening, Anna told him about it.

“You have a loyal admirer.”

“I don’t believe that’s what Andrea meant.” Karenin didn’t take the joke. Obviously, he knew the character of his nephew very well.

Anna changed the subject: “I was thinking, maybe we can help them.”

“How?”

“Andre can come to our house when he’s free, and Charlie can stay with us for a while, if you don’t mind?”

“That’s feasible. Anna, you can arrange it then Karenin is hanging his tie.

“You had a drink.” Anna wrinkled her nose and sniffed.

“Two cups, great taste?” Kalenin inquired, sniffing his shirt. He was not sure if the alcohol was strong. In that group of drunkards, even if they don’t drink, they always get a taste.

“It’s tolerable.”

Anna doesn’t like alcohol. She doesn’t want her husband to be an alcoholic.

“Do you want me to give you a massage?” She suggested.

Karenin looked up at her.

Anna thought that the other side was doubting her skills, so she quickly brightened her hands, white, and looked very beautiful.

“My massage is very good.”

“Anna, why do you do this?” Karenin asked slowly.

“In the book, do you forget how much skier likes to drink?” Anna laughed, trying to change the subject.

Karenin nodded, and it seemed that he did not really go to his heart. Anna was relieved as he turned around.

She let Karenin sit on the soft chair, wash hands and knead each other’s neck, the technique is quite skilled.

“Are you free tomorrow?”

“There is no arrangement. What’s the matter?”

“I want to go shopping. Would you like to accompany me?”

“What do you want to buy?”

“No, I just want to hang out.”

Anna waited for Karenin to answer. After a while, the latter said, as if thinking.

“Sometimes I don’t understand why women go shopping without a planned list, or they go shopping aimlessly.”

“It’s not that you don’t understand. Sometimes we don’t understand ourselves.” Anna said with a smile that she began to tell Karenin some of today’s little jokes, all of which belonged to the three children.

“Lucia is very clever. Andre is very cute, though proud. As for Charlie, you don’t know how much fun he talks…”

“Do you like children?” Karenin asked suddenly.

“Yes.” Anna replied instinctively, then suddenly realized something, her face a little red.

“That,” she murmured, her hand stopped.

She was about to say something, but Karenin suddenly raised his right hand, took Anna’s right hand on his neck and gently brought it here. Then, he looked up at the people in front of him, and with a little effort he pulled Anna down and let her sit on his lap.

“You can hold me.” Karenin said.

Anna couldn’t control her blush, and now her earlobe is red. She raised her hands and put her arms around Karenin’s neck, gently.

Karenin raised his right hand again and landed under Anna’s earlobe, followed the delicate curve of the jaw line to the cusp, and finally wiped her lips with his thumb.

“Are you drunk?” Anna asked in a low voice, her voice trembling.

“No

Very calm reply, Anna wanted to speak, but could not.She thought Karenin was a little drunk.

“Breathe.” Said Karenin in a low voice, low as the October wind, cool and covered with a golden fragrance of wheat fields.

Anna breathed obediently. She did not kiss a person so deeply. She knew that Karenin did not. To be honest, if he had, Anna would be jealous, really.
