Karenin frowned slightly at Anna's explanation, but he couldn't find anything on his wife's face, so once again he chose to let things go.

After confirming that they were both satisfied with their present lives, Karenin's mind turned to his affairs.

Then there was no sound of conversation in the carriage.

When they got home, Seryosha was talking to Kabidonich at the door.

"Seryosha." Anna shouted. It was a bit against her mind, after all, Anna had never liked any chicks. But at this moment, in front of Karenin, calling his son so fervently, I always felt a little relieved in my heart.

Seryosha turned his head, and small dimples bloomed on his face. He hurried up to Anna and threw himself into her arms as if they hadn't seen each other in months.

"I thought I had to eat dinner alone." Seryosha said, and then turned his head and called Karenin's father.

"I promised you, didn't I?" Anna touched the boy's hair, and now the relieving thought was gone, and she must admit that Seryosha was indeed a little cute, and the latter squinted his eyes like a cat and sighed.

"I'm so happy." He sighed.

"Don't get tired of being in your mother's arms, Seryosha." Karenin said in a flat tone, and A.T. Kearney took his coat.

Seryosha winced, then looked at Anna.

Anna rolled her eyes and smiled, "Our Seryosha has always been a good boy today, hasn't he?"

"Yes, Mom, I'm done with my homework."

"Then we naturally need to give a good boy some reward, don't we?"

"Ah, that's right, Mom!" The boy's eyes were shining.

"I'll play with you for a while after dinner, you like this game, don't you?"

"Really?" Seryosha became excited.

Karenin disagreed: "Anna, don't forget that I will ask Dr. Cullens to come and check on your health. ”

"Just for a moment, Alexey." Anna said that because of something, at the moment she felt that Seryosha was really cute everywhere, so she began to indulge him a little.

"Mom, do you have any pain?" Seryosha asked worriedly.

"No, it's just a routine physical check-up." Anna stroked the boy's hair again. After listening to her explanation, Seryosha was relieved, but he still said: "Then let's not play for a long time, Mom, I want to go to bed early today." ”

Seryosha's thoughtfulness caused Anna to give him a kiss.

"You're sweet, aren't you?"

The boy smiled sheepishly and continued to rub in her arms. Karenin felt that he could not say anything that the mother and son agreed with at the moment, and, I don't know if it was his delusion, he always felt that he seemed to be excluded, and a sense of embarrassment awakened in Karenin's mind, so he said that he went to the study and left first.

Anna didn't want to deal with the gentleman for a while, but remembering what happened a few hours ago, she touched her index finger and persuaded herself to be a good wife.

Karenin said that Vlamichir would come later, considering that the other party probably did not have dinner, so Anna went to the study to discuss with Karenin to postpone dinner for a while, Karenin agreed, but told Anna that she and Seryosha could eat first.

"Okay." Anna agreed, but was about to leave when Karenin stopped her again. The latter looked a little unconfident.

"Did I do anything that you weren't happy with?"

"How so? Alexei, I told you before, I think we're very happy now, and I think you can continue to work on your correspondence until Vlamichir comes, I think that's a bit of a hurry. Anna tapped the official documents that Karenin had placed on her left hand side with the tip of her finger, and the pile was easy for him to take down and flip through, obviously in a hurry.

"Yes, you have a point." Karenin nodded, looking convinced.

Anna smiled inwardly, not knowing whether to say that the gentleman was careless or perceptive, but on the whole, she was not angry anymore.

Oh, angry?

After closing the door, realizing the problem, Anna bit her lip, and then patted her cheek with her hand, and now her eyes were clear again, and her mood was clear again, like autumn clouds, nothing could stir up, and it was clear.

Seryosha's bedroom.

"Do you want to eat dinner on time? Seryosha. Anna asked Seryosha for advice, and the latter felt a sense of respect.

"Mom, we agreed to eat together, and I think the original intention of this was our family, so of course I am willing to postpone it for a while."

Seryosha said it in an orderly manner, and Anna smiled lightly, sighing that the father and son were really alike.

Since she straightened her mind, there is no way to deal with Karenin or Seryosha, and now she can look at it from the most objective point of view, or rather, become more heartfelt and gentle. After all, no matter what her status, the care they gave her was always genuine.

Since dinner was postponed, Seryosha's mini-game began first.

"Mom, I'll give you my little train No. 1, it's my favorite." Seryosha arranged that he also brought a conductor's hat, which was given to him by his aunt Tao Li.

"You're not my mom now." Seryosha said, "You are now my deputy. ”

"Well, Mr. Seryosha, what shall you call me?" Anna teased Seryosha, and it was also a temporary break from the tense thoughts of the moment, and the latter really thought about it seriously, and then said, "I will call you Tasha for the time being, and you can call me Chief Andrei." ”

After Seryosha said these things again, he restrained his cute expression, and his face was tense as if he were a little adult.

Naturally, Anna could not have really taken any interest in this kind of game, but it was not so bad to appreciate Seryosha's expression and behavior.

When Dr. Kalenss arrived, Seryosha was still a little reluctant to play the little train, but he still restrained himself from putting the toys away, and said, "Mom, now you are my mother again, and I am your child Seryosha." ”

After he said this, as if the magic had been lifted, he smiled, and his voice was soft and sweet: "I had a great time, you are not only the best mother, but also the best deputy." After saying that, Seryosha pursed his mouth and kissed Anna on the cheek quickly and loudly, and this qiē happened to be seen by Karenin, who came from the study to call Anna.

Karenin furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Seryosha, you did not remember the beginning of the Old Testament when I checked your recitation this morning, and I hope that tomorrow you will do it well." ”

Seryosha bit his lower lip as soon as Karenin spoke, a little timid and a little frustrated.

He admits that his father was right, but it would be too disappointing to say it when he was happy.

But Seryosha was an obedient boy after all, and he said: "I don't think I've got it back yet, can I go and see it a little more before dinner?" ”

Seryosha solicited his father's advice, and this pleased Karenin.

"Go, son."
