It would have been no different, but today he is being watched.
There were not many onlookers, only his wife, who looked at him without blinking.
"Skyward has his own shaver, and he loves them very much. Sometimes he even says they are his cute little ones."
Karenin wiped his now blue chin with a hot towel, scrubbing the props and saying, "I'm used to doing these things myself."
"In the past, there were so many business trips that it was impossible to bring a servant who was good at shaving with him at any time, unless it was necessary." He said carelessly, then wiped the water in the palm of his hand, and then wiped his face again. He was very careful and cautious, even as if he had a little bit of cleanliness.
Anna knew that intelligence and decency were essential to a position like him. She got up early today, so it is rare to see Karenin's daily cleaning work in the morning.
In fact, it's nothing special, but it's a little more agile. It's just that she's probably one of the few women who's been married for so long to find out what her husband looks like with a beard. After all, the latter gets up too early every day.
Karenin looked at his face again in front of the mirror to make sure that he took care of all the corners with a razor. Then he picked up the starched shirt from the clothes he had prepared and had to button them up one by one. But just as he was doing this, he suddenly stopped. He noticed that the wife had not avoided it at all.
"Am I going to avoid it?" Anna suddenly realized this, and her face suddenly turned red. Although they had more intimate contact, it wasn't during the day.
"I swear, I, I have no idea." She said something dry. She really didn't lie. Before that, there was absolutely no bad thought in her eyes, but now she had a little thought after being reminded.
"No harm." Karenin gave a slight cough.
Although the husband said so, Anna felt that she could not look at her husband's body with her heart in her heart, so she quickly turned around and prepared to leave.
"Anna."
Karenin stopped her.
"What?" Instead of looking back, Anna asked.
"I need your help." Said Karenin after a while.
Anna turned her head when she heard this.
The summer sun came through the window, but it could not fully illuminate the room. She was standing in the light zone. Only on her left cheek was Karenin stained with sunlight.
The shirt is open, the half exposed chest is relatively white, and the color of the arm and neck is different. The throat knot is very high, the shoulders are flat and wide, and the position to the waist becomes narrow and thin again. It is born with a figure suitable for dressing.
"Anna, I need your help."
Karenin repeated, this time with a steady voice.
Anna took a deep breath and walked over. Although they have been married for some time, Anna has done it.
Karenin has always belonged to the type of people who can do things by themselves, so it's surprising to hear him say such words, and it's also slightly moving.
"I've never done it for you before." Anna smiles, shyness has left.
"I don't think it's hard." Karenin said, fingers gently on the back of Anna's hand.
"Like this."
Anna was stunned. At first, she thought that Karenin really didn't think she would. She just wanted to explain, but then she gave up the idea. Because Karenin, who explained something carefully, was very exciting.
Although he is not holding a shotgun that symbolizes male power, nor anything that can shake the Russian political forum, he is even carefully telling his wife a little thing, but in any case, it is very beautiful.
"Anna?"
Karenin stopped and called his wife's name by accident. Because the latter is in his arms.
"If I'm sad, can I talk to you?"
"What's the matter with you?" Karenin cared.
Anna shook her head. "I don't have any unhappy things right now. I just want to ask you."
With a sigh of relief, Karenin replied, "naturally you can, Anna, I am your husband, and I can listen to anything you say if you like."
"I think you should be because you love me, so I can play coquettish with you." Anna snuffled and joked that she just didn't want to cry when she was so happy, so she chose to change the subject.
The joke was intended for this purpose, so she did not think that Karenin would answer, or that answer.
"Yes."
"What?" Anna didn't respond.
Half ring, the air suddenly quiet, then, Karenin whispered: "because I love you."If time can go back, Anna will tell her former self, no matter what you have to believe in your choice, that man is worthy of your love for a lifetime, please never doubt this.
After Karenin went to the Ministry, anuska reminded Anna that the Duchess of yuspov would come with her only son at ten o'clock.
Since the last kidnapping, the Duchess of yuspov has been saying that she will visit Anna. Her husband has long been in contact with Anna's husband, Karenin. The latter's recent new deal also needs the support of Duke yuspov. Therefore, Anna naturally had to treat Duchess yuspoff and the little boy well.
At ten o'clock, the Duchess of yusporf arrived on time with her only son.
"Good day, Duchess of yusporf."
Anna warmly greets the slender woman of medium height but still charming, and the latter returns with warm manners.
"Good day, ma'am."
Lenat, the only son of Duchess youspoff, also addressed Anna with great courtesy. Anna gave the little boy a kiss on the cheek.
The little boy, Lennart, is older than Andrea, has a thin, brown curly hair, much like his father's, but his sea blue eyes are inherited from his mother.
When Anna first saw Lennart, she almost thought she was a doll. Her skin was crystal clear and her facial features were beautiful. It was so beautiful. But at that time, the child seemed a little frightened and hardly spoke. Now it seems that he has recovered. Although not lively, but still with a smile on his face.
"I think the next month will be very suitable for the party to continue, even though such an unfortunate event happened a few days ago, which forced the party to be cancelled." Said the Duchess of yusporf, smiling.
There was still a trace of immaturity in her pretty face, but in fact, her words and deeds were quite mature and bold.
"Lennart is eleven years old. It's time to put him in touch with something." Said the Duchess of yuspov calmly.
Anna looked at the boy who was quietly sipping black tea. Looking at the curly hair, she felt a sense of fatalism.
After the Duchess of yusporf had left with her son, Anna sat on the balcony and anuska brought her fresh strawberries.
"I went to the market to buy them this morning. Yesterday, my husband reminded me that it was the best time to eat strawberries."
Anna looked at the little strawberries on the table, which were still dripping with water, and gave a smile.
"Anuska, sit down." Anna said.
Anuska is used to it now, not as rigid as before. She doesn't stick to the rules when nobody's looking. As my husband said, most of the time I follow my wife.
Anna asked anushika to eat together. Although the latter ate, she did not dare to let it go. She did not force her. That's already good.
Although there is no worry about food and clothing in this place, it is not so easy to want a friend who can make friends equally.
Anna is not persistent, her attitude towards life is always more gentle and easy to satisfy.
"Actually, I'm thinking about a problem." Anna wiped her hands and said, somewhat sheepishly.
"What's the problem? Madame. " Asked anushka.
"Do you think there is already a child here?" Anna asked, putting her hand gently on her abdomen.
Although anuska would be very resistant and embarrassed to have contact with a strange man, Anna's question did not make her look timid or shy. She gave a smile with a look that was not in line with her age.
"It may be."
"You and your husband have been married for a while, haven't you?"
Anna heard anushika's answer, and then remembered that she and Karenin were not newlyweds in the eyes of outsiders, but she could not continue to talk to anushika. So she laughed and continued to eat the rest of the strawberries.
"Did you keep it for your husband?" As soon as she put it on her lips and got some water, Anna suddenly thought of this problem. Then she was a little embarrassed. She didn't think about it at the beginning.
"I know. I've kept it." Anushika said, and she also laughed. "Sir didn't say to keep it for him, but I think you will do it."
"So you know me so well!" Anna joked.
Anuska shook his head and chuckled, "madam, it's not hard for you to understand."
Anna did not continue to ask, although people can not say that they know 100% of themselves, they always know what they look like.
Anna doesn't like to fight for anything. She doesn't have high demands on life. Although she did not have parents, such a gentle character is too rare, but perhaps some people's temperament from birth is doomed.
Don't complain about life, be content with the present and cherish the people around you. This kind of ordinary happiness is precisely because there is no parents, so we can experience it more deeply.Married, together, so soon, maybe there will be a child.
Anna was in the bathroom. She looked at her abdomen carefully and drew a circle on it with her palms. She thought: will there be a baby here soon?
Although she wanted to really imagine the scene, she could not really understand the feeling because of her lack of experience. She just felt that if she had children, she would be happier.
In the evening, when Karenin came back to bed after washing, he found that his wife was still awake and was looking at him with big eyes.
"What's the matter?"
Karenin asked as he lifted the quilt.
Anna automatically and habitually went to find Karenin's arm, then lay down, lay down for a while and looked at each other and asked if it was OK.
"Yes." Karenin replied, adjusting his posture.
Anna then patted the pillow that belonged to her, and then said something about what happened today.
"The child?" Karenin repeated.
"Yes, don't you remember?"
"Yes. Duke yuspov's only son, what's wrong with him
"Don't you think that child is very beautiful?" Anna asked.
"It's not good to describe a boy as beautiful, Anna." Karenin said, then recalled, and said, "but the child did inherit the virtues of his parents. Although there is no basis for judging a person from his appearance, it is true that a good-looking person is more likely to do things smoothly
"But no matter how beautiful a child is, even if he has just experienced such terrible things, he has to gradually take on his own responsibility." Anna said lenat's sea blue eyes came to mind.
"The responsibility cannot be shirked, Anna." Karenin patted his wife's hand.
"I know. I just think he's so young." Anna sighed. She looked at her husband. "I care so much about it for another reason."
"Why?"
"The child's hair was brown, a little curly, and his eyes were sea blue."
"So?" Karenin twisted his eyebrows and seemed to be puzzled.
Anna held her breath and after a while she began to breathe again. She straightened up and gave her husband a kiss on the brow. "I was thinking, if we had a child in the future, maybe he would have curly hair and your blue eyes. He would be very cute."
Karenin looked at his wife. From his gray eyes, he felt as if he understood the worries, though they were not expressed in words.
"Responsibility is inevitable, Anna. Although my parents died early, if we had a child, at least we would be with him. I don't think as long as that's the case, there's no need to worry too much about anything. "
"No matter what happens, we will always be with him."
Anna listened to Karenin's words and did not speak for a long time.
Karenin was right, she thought. No one is born to know how to be a good parent, but the greatest joy of living is to have the courage to try. It's also true for children, and the company of parents is indispensable.
"My parents, they died very early. I was raised by my aunt when I was a child. My aunt is a strict person, so I'm not sure. I mean, if we have a child now, I can do all this well."
"Of course you can, Anna." Karenin said he hugged his wife and comforted her.
Although the chance that they will have a child now is very small, and most husbands will even become impatient with this topic, Karenin will not.
Such meaningless worries are irrational and unhelpful. If this is an official document, Karenin will directly annotate an opinion that does not need further discussion, so as to make the document processed and permanently sealed. But it's not a document, it's his wife's words, it's annoyance, it's talk.
As Karenin said before, since the promise, since it is the husband of the other party, the wife's words always need to be listened to patiently, rather than ignore or scold their meaninglessness.
"I believe that if this is true, you will be a good mother."
"If there's something you don't do well, I think we can discuss and adjust. There's nothing to worry about. "
"Don't forget, Anna, I'm your husband, not any of the furnishings in the room. You can always tell me anything you want. "
After Karenin finished, he kisses his wife's forehead, which makes Anna put herself more tightly in his arms.
"OK." Anna soft ground answers a way, the mood becomes gentle, also more stable.
After confirming that his wife was asleep, Karenin relaxed a little so that both of them could sleep well.
He looked at his wife's sleeping face, the soft lines, and the relaxed lip line, so he kissed the former's lips again.He is not appeasing his wife, but to be honest, Karenin fully believes that Anna will become a good mother, and he, like his wife, is slightly confused about whether he can be a good father, but Karenin will always work hard.
If they had a child now, Karenin felt that one thing that would never change, whether he was smart or beautiful, was that he and Anna would always love that child.
