A Noble Marriage - Chapter 58

When Karenin returned to his room, he was surprised not to see his wife.

And he said, “where’s the long coat he hasn’t handed in to his wife for a long time?”

“With master Andrey. They’re in the living room.”

“Do you want me to tell Madame that you are back?” Asked corney.

Karenin waved his hand. He took a look at the direction of the second floor and stepped up slowly. He hesitated and went to the living room to shake his hands.

The sound insulation of the house is very good.

On weekdays, it always seems secluded and quiet. At this moment, there is no thick oak door that is closed everywhere. The slightly opened door makes the voice of people in the room flow to the corridor.

Karenin knocked at the door.

His uniform and leather shoes did not match the harmonious atmosphere, but it was obvious that one of them was completely unaffected by it.

“You’re back.” Said Anna, getting up and gathering her hair, and coming towards him, her cheeks flushed and her eyes bright.

“I didn’t even notice it was the time.” Anna added that she unconsciously approached her husband.

Andrea and they all said hello, and this time they became more restrained.

Karenin realized this, and his eyes fell on his wife. Seeing that she was just smiling at him, he felt relieved unconsciously.

“I have to go to my study to deal with some documents.” Karenin said that this is a fact and leaves them a more comfortable space.

“Oh, you go. I’ll call you at dinner.” Anna said, her voice fell to the ground, but her hands relaxed and gave Karenin’s right arm a little, and then she let go.

It was so natural that Karenin felt that she might not have noticed it.

He took another look at the three children, with a mixture of awe and formality.

He didn’t say anything, but as in the past, he realized more in the heart of the Russian senior official.

At about nine o’clock the next morning, they put their bags in the carriage.

This is not the first time Karenin went to the suburban house, but that house was the first time to receive so many people. There are three carriages, which are quite magnificent.

“You’ll stay in the carriage, Alexis. I’ll see if I’ve got everything.” Anna said to her husband and hurried to the back of the carriage.

She had to make sure with the cook that she had everything. After all, it wasn’t a day’s picnic.

After Anna left this sentence and walked far away, Karenin did not follow his wife’s words and got on the horse and waited.

Just now, he seemed to have the illusion of being treated as a potato, which made him twist his eyebrows slightly.

Well, Karenin had to admit that he didn’t like the feeling.

Men like Karenin, who are successful in their careers, can never be childish. When they have a decision in mind and quickly consider the gains and losses, they will act.

So instead of getting into the carriage, Karenin went to the rear of the carriage in the direction of Anna.

Today is not a good day for spring.

With the leaden clouds in the air, Anna had to discuss with the cook the importance of the tarpaulin.

The cook gave her a lot of advice, and she listened to it carefully and brushed her hair from time to time. Because it was hard to relax at the thought that they were going to a villa in the country, Anna even let her hair loose at will.

What she didn’t know was that her casual movements had already fallen into the eyes of her husband.

Karenin stopped at a distance from Anna.

It was not something in front of him that stopped him, but he found that he had never seen his wife and servants get along with each other.

In fact, he remembers more about Anna in front of him.

It seems to be more of a way to seek advice from him, to rely on him.

Now, his wife is completely out of the need to rely on. She was like a young and qualified hostess, keeping her husband’s life in order.

Her manner with the servants was not impertinent, but rather gentle.

She didn’t have the affectation of many ladies, nor the rudeness and timidity of country women. She was, and seemed to be content with her life, even with everything he had brought to her.

This kind of Anna was never seen by Karenin, but to be honest, how much did he see her? Karenin thought.

He didn’t fall into his own thoughts for too long, because his wife found her, when she turned around after talking to the cook.

She has a little smile on her forehead.

“Didn’t I ask you to go to the carriage?” Anna came up and took his arm and asked with a smile.”You’ve got a Raincloth.” Karenin pointed out.

“Because it’s going to rain.” Anna said naturally, and then she looked at her husband.

“What’s the matter?” She asked.

Karenin said: “nothing. It’s just that I wanted to remind you of this, but obviously you’ve been very thoughtful.”

“Doesn’t that please you?” Anna asked, almost holding her breath. She was sensitive that Karenin’s mood was a little wrong, but she couldn’t tell why.

“Of course not.”

Anna was relieved by Karenin’s reply.

“Well Why? ” She expressed doubts and didn’t want any emotion that she didn’t understand to appear between them.

“You,” Karenin said after a pause, “can handle things well when you are alone. And I think I underestimated your ability, Anna

After listening to Karenin’s explanation, Anna chuckled: “it sounds like you are evaluating me as a member of your department.”

“Are you unhappy about that? Anna. ”

Anna shook her head. “Not really.” “On the contrary, I feel very happy.”

“Look, Alexis, now we have a new identity. This shows that as your wife, I am also worthy of your trust. You can always trust me with some things. ”

For a long time, Karenin came to a conclusion for this talk.

“You’ve always been trustworthy, Anna.”

The sound of the chariot shimmered, and nearly two and a half hours later, Anna and they arrived at their destination.

Unlike the houses in downtown Petersburg, villas in the countryside are more elegant.

Villas in the countryside always feel the change of seasons faster than in cities. Blue roof, neat green vegetation, both sides are lush forest.

The servants moved things in, and Anna commanded, watching her husband smile from time to time.

When everything was settled, it was almost lunch time. After a simple lunch, the group went back to their bedrooms to rest.

“Don’t you rest? Anna. ” Karenin asked.

“I have to make some blueberries with Sasha and give them to the neighbors.”

It’s not close, actually. But for the sake of the future, Anna felt that it was necessary to have a good relationship with these distant neighbors.

“We saw a lot of wild blueberries not far away. I’m going to pick them up.” Anna wrapped her hair in a green headscarf, and then she turned to look at her husband and looked at him for a moment.

“What’s the matter?” Karenin asked, still holding a book in his hand, which was his original pastime, and he had to finish one tenth of the schedule today.

“Will you accompany me?” Anna asked, her fingers hooked a wisp of her curly hair, and her Raven wing lashes flickered.

“Yes.”

After getting the agreed answer, Anna goes to take her husband’s arm. She picked up a basket.

“I’ll do it.”

Karenin said he took the basket on his wife’s wrist.

“But I have to say, I’ve never done anything like that.” He said he was already thinking about anything about blueberries.

“It’s not difficult.” Anna comforts him, and then she laughs, “now there’s one thing I can do to guide you. It feels good.”

“You’re going to call me Miss Anna.” She joked.

“Instruction on how to pick blueberries?”

“Yes.” Anna took it, and then saw Karenin also smile gently.

It’s good. She likes Karenin’s smile. It’s a little cute.

They got near the lake, and there were a lot of blueberries on the bushes. One by one, they were all round and plump, because it was going to rain, they were full of water vapor, and they became puffy, like burping at any time.

“Like this.” Anna demonstrated, gently picking the blueberries with her fingers and putting them in the basket.

Karenin looked at her and did the same.

Karenin did not have much contact with fresh blueberries. Because he did not like sweets, he did not eat much blueberry pie. So it’s the first time in my life to pick them up.

“They’re not that fragile, and even if they’re broken, they don’t taste the same.” Anna said.

“I know.”

Although said that he understood, but the man’s movement is still careful and meticulous, as if those small, dark blue little things are alive.

“I don’t think you’re picking blueberries, Alexis.” Anna looked for a moment and said with a smile.

Seeing her husband’s questioning eyes, she explained, “it’s like greeting life.”

“It’s just blueberries, Anna.” Karenin said he didn’t care, but put blueberries carefully in the basket. He went on with his hand. Such a simple thing, but in his doing, it seems as if the work of general meticulous.Anna had no doubt that even if Karenin had not chosen politics, he would have become an outstanding person in that field.

Vaguely, Anna thought: in the future, I will give this man a child, because I know he will be a good father. ( )
