He took his cap and strolled into the outlying parts of the town, then into the town, where he observed every passer-by, stared into the houses, down the streets, and at last found himself standing before the Koslov's house. Being told that Koslov was at the school, he inquired for Juliana Andreevna.
You have altered, and are hardly recognisable with your beard. How delighted your Aunt must have been to see you." "Ah! his Aunt!" remarked Juliana Andreevna in a tone of displeasure. "I don't like her." "Why not?" "She is despotic and censorious." "Yes, she is a despot," answered Raisky. "That comes from intercourse with serfs. Old customs!"
"But who has said you will die?" "Oh, no, leave off! you will not deceive me; you don't know how to lie look at your face." ... "You shall live, Alexandra Andreevna; I will cure you; we will ask your mother's blessing ... we will be united we will be happy." "No, no, I have your word; I must die ... you have promised me ... you have told me." ... It was cruel for me cruel for many reasons.
The dark twining corridor was strewn with rubbish, for no one had the will or wish to keep it neat. Anna Andreevna rummaged by the stove of Sergius Andreevich, Lina's husband, looking among the papers and sweepings.
Her bag lay beside her, shaken up and down by the springiness of the seat. With a foolish smile Pyotr raised his hat, with its colored band, at the window, in token of farewell; an impudent conductor slammed the door and the latch. "Katerina Andreevna, she's got them all, ma tante!" cried the girl. "Even the child's hideous and affected," thought Anna.
Even when Raisky sought distraction in riding or visiting, there was in fact no one else in the world for him but Vera. He avoided too frequent visits to Koslov on account of Juliana Andreevna. He did not visit Paulina Karpovna, but she came the oftener, and bored him and Tatiana Markovna by her pose, retiring or audacious, as the case might be.
Will you take instalments from my salary for them? I would sell all I have, pledge myself and my wife." "No, thank you," broke in Juliana Andreevna, "I can pledge or sell myself if I want to." Leonti and Raisky looked at one another. "She does not think before she speaks," said Leonti. "But tell me what the condition is."
"Cousin Boris did not do it on purpose, Granny," said Marfinka. "Leonti Ivanovich is so good." "Please be silent when you are not addressed. You are too young to contradict your Grandmother, who knows what she is saying." Smilingly Marfinka drew back into her corner. "No doubt Juliana Andreevna was able to entertain you better, and knows better than I how to entertain a Petersburger.
Don't they know we have no servants? It is your turn to set the samovar to-day. Are there no cigarette boxes?" he walked about the room, his hands behind his back, diamond rings glittering on his fingers. "And it is your turn to go for the rations," retorted Anna Andreevna. "That will do, I know it.
He was in fact expecting a letter from his wife in answer to one he had just written. Not long before, Juliana Andreevna had written to their housekeeper and had asked her to send her winter cloak. She indicated the address, but said not a word about her husband. Leonti dispatched the cloak himself with a glowing letter in which he asked her to come, and spoke of his love and friendship.
