While eating breakfast, Karenin informed Seryosha of his decision.

"So it's the same today, but I'll be back at five o'clock to play with you for two hours."

Seryosha was so surprised that his big blue eyes widened.

It was so strange that his father told him that he would finish his busy work two hours early for him, and, play with him!

But Seryosha did not directly ask Karenin why, because he was raised to be an overly regular child.

For his father, adoration and fear have always been intertwined.

So, after Karenin left at breakfast, Seryosha asked his mother, who seemed a little frightened.

"Isn't that bad?" Anna asked Seryosha with a smile.

Seryosha nodded ignorantly, and said with some complexity: "Well, it's good, it's just a little strange." He struggled to find such an adjective.

Anna patted the little one on the shoulder.

She can understand. As far as her observations are concerned, the original Anna is a very maternal person, and she and her son should be said to be very close, and if Seryosha wants to go to a snowball fight, she will definitely agree. And these should have been interactions between mother and son, and the original Anna should never have sued Sù Karenin, or used this to disturb her husband, who was very busy in a high position.

After Seryosha went to class, Anna went to Karenin's study to pick out a book, but she did not plan to read it in Karenin's study, because Karenin's study was too cold.

"He didn't even get a fireplace or something warm in his study, did he come from the Boy Scouts? What kind of thing to sleep on a camp bed all the time and take a cold shower? Anna complained to herself, but of course it was just a joke.

Although she had not yet been to Karenin's bedroom, for a work-oriented man like Karenin, the study would reflect more detail.

For example, there are several large walls of books, in addition to some practical, there are also culture, art, religion and so on, but in fact, Karenin never really had any interest in art, he was not interested in art itself, but in knowing and talking about what benefits they can bring to him in officialdom.

Unlike the wealthy who wanted to show themselves to be literate, Karenin seemed to be more in kind or, realistically, a politician who put his interests first.

Anna picked out a miscellaneous notebook and walked slowly to the living room with the fireplace.

She moved the couch forward a little and sighed comfortably.

Russia is simply not suitable for her.

"Ma'am."

The voice of the butler Kearney rang out.

Anna felt a little irritated in her heart, because she knew that the next sentence was not good, but she only had a smile on her face and turned to look at Colch.

"What's wrong, Kearney?"

The housekeeper said: "The position of the sofa is fixed, this is measured, if it is too close to the fireplace, it is easy to be splashed by sparks, and it is not the best for the skin." ”

"Thanks for the reminder, Kearney, but I think it's a little cold, maybe you can have someone put some firewood in it as a safety concern, this cashmere dress Alex said I'm well dressed, I like it." Anna feigned concern.

A.T. Kearney had always taken Karenin's affairs very seriously, so he quickly sent a maid over to get some firewood into it, as Anna had suggested.

After A.T. Kearney left, Anna sat comfortably on the couch again.

That's good, she thought.

It's nice to have a warm fireplace, no intrigue, and you can let yourself go to sleepiness at will......

When Anna fell asleep, A.T. Kearney, the butler, made his usual rounds of the house, and found the sleeping lady in the living room, he frowned, and then asked Yunina to bring a blanket, cover her carefully, and tell the servants to move gently.

Seryosha went to his mother's bedroom after class to look for her, but saw no one, and halfway through he met Kearney and learned that his mother was asleep in the living room.

Seryosha let go and carefully pushed the door open.

The fire in the fireplace beeped, and the mother did fall asleep, trying to sink herself into the soft blanket, but one corner slipped off.

The boy walked in.

His chubby little hands carefully pinched the corner of the blanket and tried to cover her mother, but she woke Anna up.

Round eyes, soft lines of children, curly hair.

Anna was confused and thought she had seen a teddy bear, but she didn't wake up until the bear's mouth opened and closed.

"I'm asleep."

"You can sleep a little longer, Mom, are you not feeling well?" Squatting on the ground, Seryosha with his little hands on Anna's knees, he asked worriedly.

"Oh, I'm fine, Seryosha, just taking a nap." Anna patted Seryosha on the head, then got up and folded the blanket.

It's almost an obsessive-compulsive disorder, and in that home, she's constantly reminding herself to do her best.

The blanket was folded meticulously by Anna, and every corner was taken care of. Seryosha was surprised by this, but he didn't say anything.

Anna remembered it after she had done a habit of folding blankets, her eyes sank, and then she smiled in Seryosha's soft voice.

The food for lunch was elaborate but not overly luxurious, and after all, Karenin seemed to be more obsessed with enjoying his work than making money in officialdom.

By three o'clock in the afternoon, Seryosha was a little unable to sit still, but he forced himself to keep his ass glued to the stool.

Teacher Brown, who was always stingy with praise, took a qiē in his eyes and was very satisfied with Seryosha's performance today, and made an exception so that he could rest for a while.

Seryosha didn't understand why he was rewarded, but as long as it was good, he couldn't care so much.

Children love to play by nature, and when Seryosha was resting, he played with the little train, which was given to him by his uncle in Moscow, and was Seryosha's favorite toy.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, almost a minute and a second, Karenin returned, and brought twice as many texts as usual.

Anna thought: It looks like he's just compressing his time, rather than deciding to put his business on hold for a while.

"You have to wear gloves, Seryosha, or the wind and cold will kill you." Karenin still said calmly.

Seryosha obediently answered, and he was overjoyed.

Karenin frowned, but didn't say anything, he turned to Kearney, the butler, and said, "Cook a pot of ginger soup, has Dr. Cullens confirmed it?" ”

"Yes, sir, I have confirmed everything according to your instructions."

"Yes." Karenin nodded. He likes to plan ahead, and he is always in order and prepared.

Anna was amused that Karenin had thought about the snowball fight as if it were a diplomatic accident, and she was a little impressed by Karenin's thoughtfulness.

It seems that rumors are always not credible.

This man clearly loves his son very much.
