A Noble Marriage - Chapter 55
There are so many people, so many eyes in the world, only one eye. No matter how beautiful or ugly, you can always find them at the first sight.
Because, only the other person’s eyes are no impurities are looking at you, and fortunately, you are the same.
Karenin was running towards his wife, and Anna trotted forward as well.
She couldn’t help hugging him in the crowd, her hands around his neck, and her smile was bright and bright.
“I’m back, Alexis.” Anna said, a little wheezing.
She looked at her husband carefully, like a mother worried about her children, and then, satisfied that he was not emaciated at all, she nodded her head childishly.
Karenin enjoyed the moment, but he took into account the actual situation, so he patted his wife’s arm gently, indicating that she should take care of her surroundings.
Anna sighed contentedly. She let go of her hand, but whispered a word in his ear.
“Next time, you should remember to tell me, welcome home.”
She put down her tiptoe and still looked at her husband wholeheartedly, who finally nodded in reserve.
Anna laughed, and she sipped her hair. Turn around and ask Alexei to come.
She introduced them to each other.
“Hello, uncle.”
Alexeijin saluted politely and looked at his great uncle.
He is very tall. His figure is not like that of an ordinary official. His facial features are not graceful and decent. His tight lips indicate that he is not a funny person, but his eyes are very deep, which makes people dare not show off anything in front of him
At the end of the day, Alexei was stunned for a moment, because he realized that his small movements had already been known by the other party.
His uncle, almost motionless, looked at him in a way that did not disturb him.
Alexei looked at each other again with a nervous look.
“Alexei.”
The other side spoke. Alexei’s voice was a little tight and he answered.
He noticed that Karenin looked at him again for a moment, then withdrew his gaze, and said only lightly that he should go back first.
“Yes.” He said that subconsciously.
Anna kept an eye on the two men until she got into the carriage and whispered to her husband, “you just scared him.”
“I didn’t say anything, Anna.” Karenin said.
“Well, you must have your own ideas. Tell me about it?” She approached each other with her husband’s arms in both hands.
It’s like, these days have not changed anything at all.
Her natural movements soothed Karenin’s heart. Because Karenin didn’t like change.
Anna’s absence in these days, his life seems to be unchanging, his whole person seems to be completely unaffected, but only Karenin himself understands, is not the same.
He was always a little restless. Until now, the position around him was occupied by people. His hands, who did not know how to be reserved and regular, naturally held him. The familiar temperature was close to him, and Karenin understood.
It’s amazing how easy it is to accept this fact and conclusion, even without taking half a minute.
“Have you asked him?” Karenin opened with a question.
Anna nodded. “Guess.”
“I think the answer is obvious. I’ll arrange it for him. ”
“You even just saw him.” Anna blinked.
“He’s still a kid, and he’s not very good at hiding his emotions. What’s more, you will ask me for help in this matter. At least the child has the qualities you appreciate. ”
Karenin finished quietly. Then he found that his wife’s arm movement had changed into a gentle grasp. Then he saw his gray eyes looking at him like stars.
“Wow!” She said in a low voice, but her eyes were still shining at him.
Karenin suddenly felt a little uneasy. He moved his face gently, then felt his wife’s rising movement. Then, the corner of his mouth was kissed.
A smile came from my side.
“Thank you, Alexis.” Murmured his wife, pressing close to him like a little hamster.
Karenin gazed down at his wife’s test. Under his long eyelashes, his blue eyes looked like a clear sky.
What he said or did was nothing, but somehow, to his wife, it was like he had done some incredible feat.
Karenin has received a lot of compliments in his life of more than 30 years. If it is said that when he was young, he would have been very helpful to such words because of his arrogance. Now, he can calmly see the intention behind those compliments.
Want power? Want money? Do you want to make a relationship? Or simply because the other person is not smart enough to think of more constructive words?Yes, he can analyze any praise for him, because at his age and position, he has already understood that praise is not icing, but □. Interests dominate people’s mouths.
But of all the people, absolutely not including their wives.
Before he got married, this was not something Karenin needed to think about.
But now, he can’t help but allow himself to think for a moment.
If at the moment, his wife is not Anna, can he still skip the step of analysis and filtering, and simply feel happy about it?
The answer is No.
So irrational.
He forced his mind to pause in order to protect his rational mind.
The expression of wisdom and rationality once again focused in the eyes of the Russian high-ranking official. However, the cold-blooded senior official still put his left hand gently on his wife’s small arm.
“Are you listening?”
His wife looked up at him with suspicion.
Karenin blinked and said, “yes, Anna.”
His wife was relieved and continued to talk about the separate days.
Although his mind was pulled hard by reason, he still listened to all his wife’s words, and made room for these useless words.
“Anna.” Karenin made a sudden noise.
Anna looked up at her husband and was about to ask what was wrong. Then she was kissed on her lips.
She was a little surprised, her eyes wide open, but her husband closed his eyes slightly.
Eyelashes, like feathers, were rubbing on the bridge of her nose.
The warm, dry hands gently stroked her cheek, and her thumb scratched across the skin of her cheekbones, and the thin cocoon on her finger belly made Anna’s thick eyelashes tremble.
Then she closed her eyes and enjoyed her husband’s slightly delayed kiss.
“Welcome home.”
Between the lips and teeth, in the air, the whisper reached Anna’s ear slowly.
She smiles and responds happily.
“Well, I’m back.”
The clattering sound of the carriage finally stopped after turning a corner. Peter, the coachman, waited quietly, biting his cigarette to satisfy his craving, with a mysterious smile on his face.
It took one more minute than when the master got off the carriage himself.
Looking at the back of Mr. and Mrs. Karenin, Peter was happy in his heart, thinking that it was Mr. Karenin! Mr. Karenin of Petersburg!
The servants were very happy to see his wife coming back. They had thought that the husband would temporarily put down his official duties and turn around his wife like that day. But unfortunately, it is obvious that there are not many days when the husband is out of order.
Anna didn’t know what the servants were thinking.
Karenin told her that some of his official duties must be dealt with immediately, and there were people waiting to see him in the study.
Anna nodded and took Alexei to his room.
After knowing Anna’s decision, Karenin had already told the housekeeper korny to collect a bedroom for Alexei.
It’s around the corner, but it won’t be the last.
The room is not the largest in the house, but it is well arranged.
Ordinary children would complain that the room was too cramped, but Anna observed that Alexei didn’t care.
His little servant helped him pack up, but anuska did part of the folding. A boy’s hand is not as good as a girl’s.
“There’s obviously something missing.” Anna said suddenly.
Alexei looked at his aunt suspiciously.
“Wait here a moment, Alexei. I’ll be right back.” Anna said, and then left in a hurry.
After Anna left, the blonde boy stayed in the room and suddenly looked a little cramped.
He saw that his servant was asking anushka about something, and then he looked around the room again.
It’s no different.
The family didn’t mean him in this respect. They just ignored and ignored him.
Alexei sipped his lips.
He forced himself to stretch out and not shrink back like a mouse.
Then he went to the window, but his hands were not relaxed on the windowsill. He stood straight and thin, with the outline of the delicate bones growing up in the youth.
This is what Anna saw when she came back.
Spring sunshine sprinkles in, the youth’s golden hair, and tight lips, slightly proud and thin.
The child needs a little help.
And Anna knew she could help him.
She was so glad she had done it, and she was more grateful to her husband.
“Alexei.” Anna cried with a smile, “look at the flowers.”She went over, put the vase on the round table and carefully closed it.
“Well done, isn’t it?” Anna beckons her to come.
“Yes.” Alexei whispered, his drooping eyelashes like lilies, with cautious timidity.
“Now they are in your care.” Anna pushed the vase a little in front of each other, and then raised her smile.
“Because they are yours. It’s your responsibility to take good care of your own things.”
Alexei was stunned. After the vase was pushed over, he had raised his finger in mid air and touched the delicate flowers.
“You will, won’t you?” Anna asked.
Alexei nodded, his fingers wandering over the petals.
Anna starts to smile.
At dinner, Karenin’s visitors had dinner with them. When asked about Alexei, Karenin introduced this nephew to the other party.
The visitor lavished praise on Alexei, as if he had seen what he would achieve in the future when he first met him, which made Alexei a little flattered.
At the back, after seeing the visitors away, and Anna went to the kitchen to set up dessert for him, Alexey heard the uncle say to himself.
“Don’t take those words seriously, Alexei. He praises you not because of you, but because he asks me.”
“I understand, uncle.” Alexei whispered, a little disappointed.
Then soon, he heard the calm voice of Karenin.
“But in the future, you can always win these honors for yourself.”
Alexei looked at each other, his pale gray eyes wide open.
“Can I really?”
“I can’t promise you. The future is not guaranteed by others. But what I can tell you is that I’ve come this way. ”
“Now, I have to deal with the rest of the document.”
Karenin finished and walked forward in a steady pace. As he turned the escalator, he heard the boy’s voice.
“I can go to school in Petersburg. You will help me, won’t you?”
“For once, Alexei.” Karenin said faintly, “I don’t want to see…”
“I won’t hit people again!” Alexei said quickly.
Then he saw the man turn around and look down at him with a cool look in his deep blue eyes.
“If you promise me that, Alexei, I’m not satisfied.”
Alexei was stunned for a moment, but soon he understood. His pale gray eyes were full of brilliance.
“I promise you and Aunt Anna will not ‘hear’ that I have hit people
“Good night, Alexei.” Karenin looked at the boy for a moment, then turned around and continued to go upstairs.
“Good night, uncle.” Alexei said, his voice trembling.
“It’s strange enough for you to say good night to each other so far away.” A soft female voice rings.
Alexei turned and looked. It was his aunt, who was coming over with dessert.
She was wearing a light skirt, her black hair was obsidian, and she was shining when she was smiling.
Alexei went over and said, “thank you, Aunt Anna.”
Anna blinked and her right hand touched the boy’s cheek.
“I didn’t help you, Alexei. Now, have some pudding. That’s what an aunt can do for you Then she began to laugh.
Alexei sat in his chair and relaxed for the first time.
Looking at alexewski eating pudding, Anna’s mind is slowly floating into the study.
She put her cheek in her right hand and gave a smile.
