Chapter 72

Anna doesn't like winter very much. Although there is beautiful snow in winter, she would prefer to live in warm season if she was given the chance to choose.

Karenin didn't care about the change of seasons. If it was too hot, the mood of the senior official in Petersburg might be affected a little, of course, just a little.

Their son, Xie liaosha, seems to love all seasons. He can always find those beautiful places in his optimistic little mind.

It happened in June, in early summer. The continuous spring rain has ended, and summer insects have begun to stir up.

During this period of time, Xie liaosha always wakes up very early. Generally, she will open her big blue eyes at more than five o'clock. Therefore, Anna always asks him to go to bed early at night. Fortunately, after observing for a period of time, Xie liaosha does not show any discomfort, and Anna is relieved.

This morning, Xie liaosha woke up early as usual.

He didn't change his clothes immediately after washing. He was still wearing a white robe with lace. He leaned lazily against the bay window and began to read a collection of poems in a whisper.

It is only in the morning that Xie liaosha shows such an inappropriate appearance, and more often, he keeps himself in a good sitting position. Because he saw a lot of good habits from his father, and Xie liaosha wanted to be a self disciplined person like his father since he was a child.

And Anna always felt like her heart was melting when she opened the door to see all this.

"Mom."

Xie liaosha saw his mother. He put down his book and began to smile. He called softly.

Anna goes over and kisses the child's round cheek.

"Why do you get up so early?" Xie liaosha asked in his mother's kiss, holding each other's neck in both hands, like koala.

Anna smoothed the curly hair in front of her forehead for Xie liaosha. She was just like a small animal waking up from hibernation. She always had a kind of newborn ignorance between her eyebrows and eyes. She looked weak and lovely.

"Remember what I told you last night? Andre is coming today. Shall we meet him at the railway station

Xie liaosha remembered that his father had said it at dinner yesterday.

Cousin Andre came suddenly this time. It was not his holiday time.

The answer his father gave him was that cousin Andre was going through another period of change. His response to this answer was to blink his eyes and poke at the beans in the bowl, thinking: it's a bit mysterious.

Now, with his mother, he could inquire in more detail.

"What's the other stage dad was talking about? Mom. " Xie liaosha is still holding his mother, his blue eyes are like the sky outside the window, clear and distant, without a trace of impurities.

Anna is also sitting on the wool mat of the bay window. She first touches Xie liaosha's ankle to make sure whether he has caught cold. Then she smiles and answers questions for her curious child.

"It's a change of mind from a child to an adult. At this stage, they sometimes don't like to get some answers from their parents. "

Xie liaosha thought it was incredible. In the world of a five-year-old, parents sometimes mean the world.

"It's strange." He said with a wink. He drooped his eyelashes, pondered for a moment, and then looked up. "That's why brother Andrey came over when it wasn't a holiday, right? Because he wants answers from his father? "

"Absolutely right." Anna kisses the boy's little hand. The meat nest on the back of the hand is really lovely, while Xie liaosha looks at his little hand anxiously. Although he knew that many people liked them, when he was a little older, it would be difficult for him to carry out the kind of adult handshake with his fleshy hand?

"I'm not always that fat, am I?" He looked at his mother, blushing slightly, and asked shyly.

Anna laughed.

"Don't worry, baby, when you get to Andrea's age, they won't be like children any more."

Then she pretended to be a little healthy when she was five years old

Having been assured, Xie liaosha breathed a sigh of relief. After hearing the words his mother teased him, he also laughed, and the sound of joy was like the wind beside a stream. After a while, Xie liaosha said shyly:

"I hope they can be like dad."

He looked at his small hands carefully, spread out, and then clenched, soft and soft.

"Dad's hands are beautiful."

Slender, powerful, able to hold a gun, strong and warm when writing.

Anna knew that he adored his father, and she was very proud of that feeling, but every time she listened to these statements again from his pure blue eyes or his small mouth, she still felt a little moved."It may not be exactly the same, but we all believe that you will become a better person than him." Anna encouraged hopefully.

"Well." Liaosha's dimples are just like the dimples of stars.

At about ten o'clock, Xie liaosha and his mother went to the train station to meet Andre.

The time they had estimated was just right, and after her mother had kissed Andrea on the cheek, seliosa walked over.

"You don't look very tall, Xie liaosha." Teenagers are extremely thin, and their high cheekbones should have seemed a little cold, but they are bright because of the smile on the bottom of their eyes when they speak.

Xieliosha bowed down with Andre, and then kissed each other on the cheek. Only then did he stand up and was not angry. He only said softly that he would grow tall in the future.

Andrea touched sheriosa's little head absentmindedly.

Back in the carriage, serliosa watched Andre carefully.

After all, he was only five years old, and there was always a limit to what he could understand. But because he was young and sensitive, he immediately noticed some changes in Andre.

It wasn't just about height and appearance. It was like, in the past, Andre was the same as him, like a carefree plant, but now he is restless.

From the corner of his eyes and eyebrows occasionally revealed the fatigue and irritability, Xie liaosha thought: the original growth has so many troubles!

At home, Andre moved his body as if he had been tense, and now he was relaxed because he came home.

Xie liaosha still hooked his mother's little thumb, until his mother patted his hand and motioned him to let go, and then he reluctantly let go.

Anna thought it was funny.

This is a small problem of Xie liaosha. For close people, Xie liaosha occasionally shows that he is too sticky. Once he decides who to hold the thumb, it is like sticking it with sugar, so he doesn't want to loosen it. If you do that, seliosa will act like a little dog that's been kicked, a little bit sad.

Anna looks at seliosa, then stops Andrea, who turns around and signals him with her lips.

Andrea looked down at sheriosa, shrugged his shoulders, and finally took the little boy to his room by the waist.

"Ah"

suddenly, Xie liaosha was frightened, but soon, he giggled again.

At home, the father would not do this kind of monkey business to him, and Andrea, to some extent, replaced a part of the father's role, although before that, he was only a little boy himself.

In Andrea's bedroom.

Xie liaosha was sitting on the sofa. He was a little too upright. In contrast, Andre, sitting cross legged on the carpet with his back against the sofa, seemed very inappropriate.

However, no matter how inappropriate, the beautiful face and the juvenile body, as well as the unique rebellious adolescence still make him appear some charming.

At least, the little maid who brought Andre honey water looked a little shy.

"Madame said honey water can moisten your throat, and master Andre should drink more now."

"Well." Andrea answered, then wrinkled his nose and took a sip without moving.

"Brother Andre, don't you finish it?" Xie liaosha asked, holding his cup in his hands.

"Too sweet." Andre wrinkled his face and continued to read the book in his hand.

Xie liaosha was stupefied. He clearly remembered that Andrea didn't hate sweets, although he didn't like sweet food as much as he did.

So, when you grow up, you don't even like sweets?

Xie liaosha felt a little afraid, and then quickly drank the honey water in his hand.

Xie liaosha didn't know that his worried look was completely captured by Andrea. I don't know why. From the beginning of Xie liaosha's understanding, Andrea suspected that he was not a little boy, but some kind of young but pure animal.

No boy can be as soft and courageous as seliosa.

But because of this, sometimes Andre wants to tease each other.

"Open your mouth." Andre held the book lazily in one hand and made a gesture of opening his mouth in the other.

Although Xie liaosha is a little confused, he still opens his small mouth and matches his innocent big eyes, just like some kind of chick crying for help.

"Ah"

Andrea looked at the boy's teeth and said, "haven't you changed your teeth yet?"

Xie liaosha shook his head.

"You can still eat it now." Andre nodded. "Even if you lose your teeth because you eat too many sweets, there will be new ones."

No teeth!

Xie liaosha's big blue eyes were wide and round, and there was obviously some panic.

Then he asked, "how to change his teeth?"Andre gave a fake smile: "Oh, then there will be no teeth. You can only drink milk from now on."

Xie liaosha listened and looked anxiously at the small cake just sent by the maid. He didn't want to lose all his teeth, but he couldn't let go of the cake.

Andre saw Xie liaosha's tangled appearance, and her small brown eyebrows twisted. Suddenly, she felt that she didn't like sweet food any more.

"Eat one and you'll be OK." Xie liaosha whispered, obviously still unable to resist the temptation of sweets, he stretched out a small white hand.

"The teeth will fall out." Said Andrea coolly.

The little hand in mid air stops.

Andrea looked up, and serliosa was stunned, then slowly put his little hand behind his back, but his eyes were still fixed on the cake.

"Well, that's funny." Andrea laughed and took the cake to sheriosa and put it in the heart of his hand.

Xie liaosha looked at the small cake in his hand carefully, then laughed, and did not accuse Andre of cheating him.

Andrea looked at serliosa's contented appearance, and suddenly felt that his parents' behavior of making decisions for him regardless of his wishes was not so strong in France.

At more than four o'clock in the afternoon, his father came back from the Ministry. After Xie liaosha and his father said hello, the latter took Andrea to the study.

His mother was talking to Sasha in the kitchen. Seliosa had no classes now. It was his leisure time, so he went to the porter cabidonnech.

Cabidonec knows a lot of things, most of which are very interesting, so sheliosa likes to talk to him.

"How did you grow up all at once?" Xie liaosha asked curiously.

Cabidonnecci looked at the young master at home with his favorite eyes.

Although in Petersburg he had seen children more lovely and beautiful than seliosa, no one was sweeter than him.

"I can't remember such a long time, young master."

"No signal?" Xie liaosha asked, thought about it and added, "it's like a flower bud before it opens. If you look carefully, the petals will tremble."

"I don't think so. Most people grow up at that time."

There was no answer from kabidonnech, and seliosa felt a little melancholy.

Later, my father said he would go out with Andrea tomorrow.

"May I go?" Xie liaosha asked.

"You have French lessons, seliosa." Karenin said.

Xie liaosha was a little disappointed.

"Let him go." Andre said he knew what Karenin had for rejecting sheriosa's request.

Xie liaosha looked at his father with bright eyes, and the latter nodded to show his agreement.

"But the course still can't be left behind. I'll talk to your French teacher and ask him to adjust the course to the evening."

Karenin did not indulge his son in learning. In fact, when it comes to learning, he never connived at anyone. Although he loved his children, he was also strict with them. To his satisfaction, Xie liaosha was not spoiled to be tired of learning. He also said that he had no opinion about it.

Anna packed things for them. When she saw his mother put on his hat, she asked, "where does Dad take us?"

"You'll find out later?" Anna nodded at Liao Sha's nose, and the latter laughed.

People always say that he is too curious, but Xie liaosha thinks it has too much to do with his mother. She likes to tease him like that sometimes.

"I'll see Dad's stuff." He said, and then ran away, after a while and ran back, his face a little sweaty, as if to see something wonderful treasure.

"Dad is going to take us fishing!" He announced.

Anna wiped his sweat and laughed, "satisfied, huh?"

Xie liaosha nodded and his curiosity was satisfied as if he had eaten delicious food when he was hungry. If he doesn't know all the time, he will feel worried and uneasy.

"Drink more water later." She cut the boy's hair and then said with a smile, "look at your hair. Are you going to be like Andrea?"

Xie liaosha felt his head shyly.

"I'll pay attention." He said it seemed that he cared more about his appearance than Andre.

From the departure to the destination, I stayed in the carriage for about two hours. For personal reasons, Karenin did not use two carriages, so the three men were only in one carriage.

Andre worshipped Karenin, which became more and more obvious as he grew up. Naturally, he also worshipped his father, but apart from that, he was not afraid of Karenin.

Therefore, on the way, Xie liaosha sat in a proper way, but he kept talking.

He knew that his father was a man who didn't like to waste his time. Even if he didn't have documents in his hand, he was thinking. So the object of sheriosa's speech became Andrea.Strange to say.

When Andrea was in France, he obviously didn't like to talk to other people. He always put on a cool look. But when he said those messy words, he was not bored.

He glanced at his cousin and thought: probably no one would not like him.

But the client did not feel this affirmation, because although his mother sometimes said with a smile that everyone loved him, Xie liaosha did not really take it seriously.

Sometimes his father's words made him think that how could anyone be liked by everyone in the world?

He also has such shortcomings, but as long as there are so few people who really love him, Xie liaosha will feel very happy.

"Here we are. Get out of the car." Karenin said.

Xie liaosha saw his father get out of the carriage. He stopped for a moment and took down the fishing utensils. He hesitated after Andre got out of the car.

The carriage was still a little high, and he was observing whether he could go safely on his own.

But before he could think of any way, his hands had reached in front of him.

Xie liaosha laughed and suddenly felt that even though Andre was going through a stage he didn't know, the other side was still Andrea.

"If you are picky, you will not grow tall." Andrea pinched the boy's face, and when he let it go, a dimple was in the reddish spot.

"You lied to me again. My mother said that I would grow tall when I got to your age. Maybe taller than you and dad. " Xie liaosha finished with his hands on his back and left like a little adult.

"It's hard to cheat a child when he's old." Andrea muttered with a smile and followed.

This place has a wide view of the lake and is undisturbed.

The wind in June is always slightly sweet. Xie liaosha can't help but close his eyes and wrinkle his small nose and sniff it gently.

"Don't be so close to the lake."

Andre tugged at the big collar of his sailor's suit and dragged him back a few steps like a little potato.

"I will not." Xie liaosha said, but did not continue to move forward.

His father told him that curiosity is OK, but don't put yourself in danger because of curiosity.

"Play first." Andre drove seliosa to a bunch of flowers and went to Karenin to help.

Xie liaosha sighs, then lies on the grass, carefully observing a butterfly on the yellow flower.

With his hands on his cheeks, he watched the butterfly flapping its wings and sucking nectar. After a while, his legs in his white socks also rose and swayed rhythmically.

As soon as Andre turns around, he can see that Xie liaosha has been immersed in another world with great interest.

The sun in June was already warm, and Andre's white face turned red. The tingling made him wake up. He saw that his uncle was just like him, looking at Xie liaosha, who was already talking to little butterfly with a smile.

"Andre, you are too impatient." Karenin withdrew his eyes and said calmly.

Andrea licked his lips, but his eyes were as sharp as a teenager: "maybe, you know, I never wanted to live my life as they wanted."

"I know."

Karenin began to load bait on the hook. His tone was flat and light, just like the comfortable shirt on his body. Unlike his usual days when he goes to work, he always wears a close fitting suit and a stiff collar shirt. Now Karenin is as comfortable and peaceful as this afternoon. Although, Andre knew that even at this moment, Karenin's mind could not completely leave business.

"You've had your own ideas since you were young, and your parents are worried about it." Karenin said faintly, then threw out the fishing rod, he turned to look at his nephew.

"Don't forget, they are your parents and love you very much."

"I know, that's why I went to school." Said Andrea carelessly. He had never been interested in orthodox learning, and so was the place he would eventually enter, so hypocritical and dirty.

Father and mother thought he was just making a scene, but it wasn't.

There was nothing wrong with their love for him, but Andrea couldn't tell them what he wanted to do. His heart is free, his soul is free, and he never believes in God. All his behavior is not God's instruction at all.

From a long time ago, he had been thinking: if he became a good man in the future, it was also because he chose to be a good man. If he became a bad man not allowed in this world, it was just that he chose to be a bad man.

God did not teach him, the devil did not tempt him.

But he can't say such things to anyone. Therefore, he is not willing to continue to stay in school, do not want to accept the care of his parents. He chose to come to his uncle's house in Petersburg.

Now he felt he was right.

He doesn't need to say anything. His uncle may or may not know. It doesn't matter. He just needs a place to breathe."The problem doesn't come out of the blue, Andre. It's not the end. The emergence of a problem is caused by many factors. Therefore, there are many ways to solve it. "

"People can live freely, but it is better not to forget their own responsibilities." Karenin got up and patted the boy on the shoulder as he passed by Andre. This is also the greater intimacy and warmth he can give.

Andre turns to look at the father and son not far away.

The sun is a little bit fierce, even under the shade of the tree, the boy can only squint his eyes to see clearly.

He saw Karenin patting seliosa on the shoulder, who blinked, laughed and said something, as if he had just woken up from a wonderful world.

"Responsibility." Andre chewed the words, and the agitation seemed to have stopped this afternoon.

That night, Andre went back by train.

This time, Xie liaosha and his father sent him to the train. He asked Andre if he would go back to school, but the latter shrugged his shoulders without a definite answer.

After the train whistled and clattered away, Xie liaosha, holding his father's little thumb, looked up and asked innocently, "will he go back to school?"

"Yes." Karenin replied, and then took sheliosa to go back. Anna was still waiting for them.

Out of the station, he saw the stars all over the sky, a little heat wave wrapped with a layer of sweet and greasy breath blowing past Xie liaosha's eyelashes. He was confused and thought: what is the so-called growth?

He looked at his father again, saw his tight lips, and, at the moment, holding himself.

Those troubles were shaken away by him, and he said with a smile, "Dad, I want to be like you in the future."

"Officials?"

"I don't know." Said Liao Sha honestly.

"I mean, in the future, Xie liaosha will have the same heart as his father." Because, although still can't understand what happened to Andre's brother, but as long as you look at his father, you won't be afraid. As long as you become an adult like your father, it doesn't matter if you don't know what the future will look like.

My heart? Karenin was stunned for a moment, saw his son's happy little face, then slightly pulled up the corner of his lips and laughed. He stopped and picked him up with the boy's incomprehension.

What he did was not unfamiliar at all, because when Xie liaosha was younger, when he saw his father, he would stretch out his hands and ask for "hugging". Now, as he grew up, he became more and more polite, but he was not always so coquettish.

Xie liaosha was a little surprised at first, but soon relaxed. He said softly, "Dad, we have to hurry up. Mother is still waiting for us to go home."

"Good."

The author has something to say: I really don't want to grow up, but this is inevitable. Therefore, since we can not change, we should use a better mentality to adapt to new things. I also hope that in the future, I can become the power of my child, make him happy and not worry about the unknown. Shuimulong
