Karenin frowned slightly, and said: "As far as I understand, this red candle is not healthy. Seryosha's trachea is not good. ”

He paused, then looked at Anna, "I thought you'd notice." ”

Anna was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Don't you think I'm testing whether you're careful?" Alexey. ”

"If that's reasonable, you've always cared more about Seryosha than I do." Karenin said lightly, no longer taking this matter to heart.

Anna looked at Seryosha, who was struggling with what to choose for dessert after the meal, and finally, as he had promised Karenin before, he had weighed his appetite and had no more food left.

After a little rest after dinner, they decided to go home, Seryosha was a little drowsy in the carriage, and he leaned into Anna's arms.

Despite a little discomfort, Anna tucked the corners of the velvet blanket for Seryosha.

Seryosha moved uncomfortably, and Karenin raised his hand to caress the former's back, which worked.

"You've been feeling strange lately, Anna." Karenin whispered. His wife was always the first to notice her son's needs and always thought of appropriate solutions, such as caressing his back when he was having trouble sleeping, which was usually as reliable as giving a pacifier to a baby when he was crying.

"What if I said I was like this because I had a strange dream?" Anna chuckled, her eyes a little misty.

Indeed, she did not accept this qiē very well.

As the man's blue eyes stared at her intently, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Forget about it." ”

"I want to know, Anna."

"What?" Anna looked at each other.

Karenin looked at his wife, his jaw line a little tight, and his thin lips looked even more cold, and at this moment, when he said this slowly, there was an air that could not be refused.

This is really different from his personality.

Generally speaking, Karenin has always compared the way of getting along with husband and wife like close friends, mutual respect and trust in each other, which also means that if one partner is unwilling, then the best way as a partner is to respect her wishes and refrain from probing and spying. Any such behavior is not permitted.

He had been telling himself to follow the rules, but now, he thought he couldn't ignore them anymore.

Whether it was curiosity or anything, he still crossed the line that he himself summed up from doctrine and social norms, and firmly adhered to, which had little to do with logic and reason.

And the one qiē is because his sensitive nerves have caught a hint of danger - he can't see through his wife's heart now.

Anna stroked the folds of her skirt, then looked at Karenin, smiled and whispered, "What do you want to know, Alexey?" ”

yes, what did he want to know?

Karenin was a little speechless.

He couldn't just say that he desperately needed to understand why the door of his heart, which had been open to him, was closed to him at this moment. Or if she's unhappy with their marriage.

The thought of any of the above possibilities made him feel embarrassed and ashamed, so he switched to a more reserved inquiry.

"Your nightmares, for example."

"Nightmares, well, yes, there are." Anna laughed again, as if at last she had straightened out the folds in the hem of her dress, and she pulled her hair together to reveal some white earlobes, and then said with a little sparkle in her eyes: "I dreamed that I was a child who was not expected to be expected, and that I had a sister who was better than me in everything, as if she were living in the shadows." ”

"You know what? Alexey, that shadow made me feel like a gray ball, in my dreams, I 'hated' her, but despite this, she was a good sister, like a light, and everyone liked her. She deliberately emphasized the word "hate", and the deliberate smile on the corner of her mouth turned cold when she saw Karenin's brow furrowed.

"As far as I know, you only have one brother, Anna." Karenin said that his calm attitude strangely calmed Anna, and that the story was of course endless, and that she only told a beginning, and at the beginning, threw out an image of Anna at the worst, alone, like that pale ghost, full of jealousy.

"Now I'm a little happy, it was just a nightmare." She said, smiling softly, her eyes cheerful and bright, "I didn't expect that I was that kind of person in my dream, not very good, right, for this reason I have been in a bit of a trance lately, and I plan to repent." She feigned a little shy and shy, and the relaxed atmosphere diluted the gloom just now.

"It's not good to be jealous." Karenin said in a deep voice.

"Indeed." Anna smiled in response, perfectly guessing what he would say.

The atmosphere seemed to be a little cold for a moment, and Anna took over Karenin's movements, stroking Seryosha's back like a real mother.

Although the role of mother has been lacking in her life for too long, it has also given her a strong ability to observe and learn.

Just observe and learn, and then follow along. But she understands that no matter how much she imagines it, it is just a clumsy imitation, not from the heart.

Karenin may be excellent, and Seryosha is undoubtedly sensible and cute, but in this strange era, who can find out that she is not the noble girl Anna who has not worried about food and clothing since childhood, but only herself. No, perhaps, not even in itself......

Anna was thinking abruptly, and then a heavy object was covering her legs, and someone pulled her neckline for her, so startled that she subconsciously retreated, and took a defensive posture until she saw who the person was.

"You promised me to take care of your health, but I didn't expect it to last so short." Karenin whispered a reproach, then continued to reach out and tuck Anna's neckline.

The mink was wrapped around her neck, very warm, and the weight on her knees pressed her erratic sanity, in this carriage, in this strange time.

She had to admit that there was a warm current that flowed quietly in her heart when the other party pulled her neckline just now.

"You are a heartless person, and your birth is meaningless compared to your sister Anning." Someone once told her what she did at the time, oh yes, she told each other with a smile, she lived for herself since she was born.

So, of course, everyone loves tranquility.

The kind of person who always thinks about others, how can she do what she did later, how can she put the person who killed their parents in prison.

An Ning is a good person, she will never look down on.

She hated her sister, and how good she was reflected reflected in how humble she was. She will never like that kind of pure good person, like, put all the evil in the world in front of her, and her gaze will never change.

"Alexey." Anna tilted her head to look at Karenin and chuckled.

"I like the integrity in your bones, the courage to face the world, and of course, the cunning part is also essential. I'm glad you're not like that! ”

Karenin was a little surprised by Anna's sudden compliment, but he didn't say anything and continued to listen to his wife's next words.

Anna looked at the blue eyes, she looked carefully and carefully, let her mind drift a little because of the recent fragments, even moved, then she cut the switch again, returned to her senses, and then, for the first time, she said her truest thoughts so calmly: "I lied, I don't think there is anything wrong with me in the dream, I hope that in the future, I can be her, she is real." ”
