Chapter 59

"What's the matter? "Asked Karenin.

Anna shook her head, her gray eyes at the moment showed a look like the neck of a tile gray pigeon, fluffy.

Karenin did not see his wife's look. He thought it was due to Anna's nature, but later she found that he was the only one who was honored for it.

The wind is blowing.

The spring wind is not warm, and the bushes are rickety. Some glossy blueberries fall into the soil because of the wind.

"The wind is rising." Karenin said.

He held a small basket made of vines in his hand. The spare hand naturally took Anna's hand, took back his sight, and said, "let's go."

Anna answered.

As she walked around, she suddenly turned her head to her husband and said, "I hope I can do the same when I am old. Come to the countryside together and you will accompany me to pick some berries."

"You are still young, Anna. "Said Karenin, not romantically. People like him can't imagine that kind of day.

Anna smiles and doesn't speak. She is always willing to tolerate her husband and doesn't complain about his romantic words. Petersburg was her husband's battlefield and she was happy to be with him. So she hummed, and from time to time she removed some catkins sticking to her skirt.

When they get back, Anna takes the basket.

"Blueberry pie is OK, isn't it?" She asked with a smile.

Karenin nodded, then hesitated and said, "do you need my help?"

Anna laughed and shook her head. "Sasha will help me. Go and do your business. " She could see that Karenin's mind was a little bit on the job. After all, he had not dealt with his work for several hours since he left.

"Are you sure?"

Anna blinked. She held the basket in both hands, looked at her husband carefully, and finally said, "I always think you are a little strange these days."

"Where?"

She recalled it carefully, and then said, "I think you seem to be very accommodating to me."

"You're too sensitive, Anna." Karenin said. Then he nodded and said slightly unnaturally, "since you don't need it, I'll go to the study to deal with some business affairs. Please call me any time you need, Anna Then he left with a steady pace.

Anna looked at the figure and tilted her head. She thought about it until she walked into the kitchen and handed the basket to Sasha.

What's the matter with you, Madame. Did blueberry take your soul away? " The cook chuckled and picked up the things neatly and put them in the water for cleaning.

Those blueberries stained with water, in the cook's white fat hands more crystal clear up, make people love.

Anna took one and looked at it carefully and ate it. She said, "Sasha, don't you think Mr. A has been very accommodating to me recently?"

"Recently?" The cook made a surprised look and said with a smile, "I think it's always been like this."

Anna looked a little surprised.

Sasha picked out the blueberries and said, "I don't think he's a woman's favorite, and he's not young, but he's better than most men in Russia."

"Can you tell me more?" Anna helps the cook and takes out a glass container in which blueberries are placed. She was always happy to hear people talk about the man, especially the things she didn't know.

"The mistresses of other families are not willing to talk about the affairs of the master's house. You'd better." The cook laughed and shook her head. She grabbed a handful of flour. With years of experience, she can calculate needs accurately without the help of those rich ladies' scales.

"I'll do it." Anna said, in a cheerful tone, almost flattering.

The cook, get out of the way and beat the eggs.

"It's not easy for women to survive in this world. Those girls who died as soon as they were born are lucky. Those who survive like us will have no less worries in their lifetime. So, when you are a girl, you must be sure to get married. You can't take those who are good-looking and glib, but what should we do? Who can resist the sweet words of these bastards of the winner The cook snorted and beat the egg white hard.

"It's not easy." Anna responded with a smile.

"Oh, you are not the same, Madame. You are the most intelligent woman I have ever seen." Said the cook briskly.

"You are a rare beauty, clever and rich daughter. You are so lucky that if you are my daughter or relative, I will worry about you."

"What do you worry about me?"

The cook wiped her hands, looked at Anna and said, "what are you worried about?" The cook laughed loudly. "My good lady, women can't be too clever, or the men who think they're right can't stand it."

"Men She shook her head and began to look after the stove.

"So you are not the same, sir, and you are indeed blessed." The cook finally concluded, and Anna looked down and laughed.She didn't know these things, but they were very different when they were told by others.

"Of course, if it were for another woman, the life would be different." The cook is making some corn flour with a sieve.

"there are as like as two peas in a person, such a person, you are giving her exactly the same thing, and the result is completely different. If you want to have a good husband like Tianma, don't blame the mule you find now. When you find Tianma, don't complain that his eyes are higher than the top, and you will not ride him. After all, you can't let one person take all the benefits. God is an eccentric old man

"What's more, few women can stand him." The cook squeezed her eyes as she passed by Anna.

Anna was happy. "Do you like him or hate him?"

"Me? Oh, my wife, your husband gives me my salary regularly. I am not ungrateful

"He likes you, too. You've been in this house for so long."

"Of course he did. I knew he was not ungrateful when he was not as tall as the oak tree in the yard." The cook made a joke, and the wrinkles in the corners of her eyes opened.

"Sometimes you are terrible."

"Me? Terrible. " Anna asked, puzzled.

"Yes, my lady, who in this family is so magnanimous as you are, even there are few Petersburg. Not to mention that the gentle and kind man you talked to us all day was our sir. My God, the new maids were terrified

Anna chuckled. "Alexis is not terrible. He's a little cute sometimes."

"That's what you think. Remember what I said, my dear lady, don't say that about your husband in front of those young girls. Little girls are no less curious than those stupid children Reminded the cook.

"I don't believe it, but thank you, Sasha. I'll only tell you that." Anna said sweetly.

When the water boiled, Anna took tea and went to Karenin's study.

She got permission to knock on the door.

Different from the past, when Karenin saw her, he did not continue to immerse himself in his official business. Instead, he held the posture of holding the document with his fingers, looked at her with blue eyes, and finally asked, "what's the matter? Anna. "

" just a cup of tea for you. " Anna showed her hand with her eyes.

Karenin stood up and said as he walked, "I'll come."

"You sit down and I'll bring it." Anna said.

Karenin stood for a moment and then sat down.

Anna put down the tea, she still stood opposite, did not leave, and her hands on the desk, supporting, half leaning down, gray eyes wide open, seriously looking at her husband sitting opposite.

"What's the matter?" Karenin was slightly uncomfortable. Then he found that his wife was laughing, with stars in her eyes.

"I just discovered a wonderful secret." She said, pretending to be mysterious.

"What?" Karenin frowned.

"I found a man who has been very nice to me recently." Anna stood up straight with her hands behind her.

"Who?" Karenin's eyebrows curled up and his blue eyes looked at his wife carefully.

Anna felt that Karenin was carefully capturing her expression. Her heart was so happy, but she took out 12 points of endurance and did not laugh.

"I said, it's a secret." She said on purpose. He even blinked pitifully.

"I can have a little secret of my own, right?" Then she added, "until I'm willing to tell you, huh?"

The poor request was a soft threat.

Mr. Karenin, a senior Russian official, never accepted threats from others. Even if he was held against his head, he did not change his face. Even his brain was spinning rapidly, cooperating with the movements of his lips, he calculated the probability of snatching the □, and reversing the present unfavorable situation.

He has seen too many professional political enemies and killers. Threats are as natural as croissants and tea in the morning, but there is never a word that is really accidentally "killed" in Karenin's heart. Gently hit the very deep soft rib.

His wife's words almost shocked Karenin.

He felt that sentence was like a curtain, which was quickly pulled down without warning.

This is not allowed by the rules.

The most cunning politician should have a reminder, not so suddenly deprived of a permit.

The rapid change in his heart was not deeply expressed in his facial expression.

From the ordinary people's point of view, the tall man was silent for only a few seconds, his sharp eyes sweeping his wife carefully, and then his reaction was just to purr his lower lip. Finally, he nodded slightly: "nature.""We are husband and wife, and honesty is what we agreed to. But * is just as important. If you bring it up to me, I will naturally agree that this is your right. "

If ordinary people hear this, they will be filled with joy and even pride. Look, how sensible my husband is. But when it came to Anna's ears, it was like being cracked by a private translator.

Anna could almost imagine that in that place, the embarrassed gentleman controlled the trembling tone in his cool, self-contained voice and said, "well, if that's what you want, you can take it."

"I really won't miss this one." The villain stressed, "after all, you only gave me such a pass temporarily. Legally, it belongs to private property, and the gift is not permanent. And I am a citizen with a strong sense of contract and law. Of course, I will not take it seriously. When I was deprived of this right, I understood that it was just normal collection and return. It has nothing to do with my own morality. "

"It is normal, logical, and does not imply any personal emotions."

After feeling this, Anna felt that she had done too badly.

Her original high interest in the eyes changed, became guilty, she felt that she had done a bad thing. She made a self righteous joke with a serious person.

She was almost overindulged.

"God, I'm sorry, it's not true, I just want to say, that's you, Alexis."

"Everyone can see how good you are to me, but I'm not the first to find out. When I learned about it, I really felt very happy, so I couldn't help but want to see with my own eyes how much you care about me Anna explained.

She stepped forward and gently held Karenin's hand, apologetically and shyly, and said, "well, you'll forgive me for my ecstasy, won't you?"

"You will, won't you?" She put on that pathetic expression again.

Karenin closed his eyes and finally said, "I hope I will not."

"It's not interesting." He disguised his joy with a look of reprimand.

"Yes." Anna nodded sharply, very clever.

"I know it's bad, I won't be So often. " She said at last and cunningly gave herself a little space, and then got a gentle frown.

Things have slipped to a point where Karenin can't control it.

There are many reasons, mainly his wife.

Karenin looked at the wife who was smiling at him cleverly and thought: it seems that it is more difficult to understand a wife than any political problem.

The reason is that we can't control it.

The most fundamental reason is that the latter uses the brain, while the former is the heart.

It seems that this episode did not bring much change to the daily life of the Russian high-ranking couple, but after a careful taste in the future, we will find that it even means a great progress.

Because it's important for both men and women to understand that you may never know what the other person wants, but you can try to give, and let him understand what you're paying for.

A long time later, after studying the official's history, one could not help but sigh at his luck.

A man like Karenin, who is not used to speaking out his love, happens to have a wife who will tolerate his shortcoming.

She may not be perfect, and there are many obvious shortcomings in her careful counting, but at least in this respect, no one is more suitable for this strict and rigid gentleman. ( )
