'I don't know, Gavrila Andreitch, about his having any right or not. 'What a woman! why, you've made him no promise, I suppose.... 'What are you pleased to ask of me? The steward was silent for a little, thinking, 'You're a meek soul! Well, that's right, he said aloud; 'we'll have another talk with you later, now you can go, Taniusha; I see you're not unruly, certainly.
Masha recollected Kister, his 'take care of yourself, and, sinking with terror, in a rather shrill voice screamed, 'Taniusha! From behind a nutbush emerged the round face of her maid.... Avdey was completely disconcerted. Reassured by the presence of her hand-maiden, Masha did not stir.
I know why you have given up going to see Varia. 'Why? 'Taniusha has forbidden you to. In uttering these words, I fancied I was dealing a most cutting blow at Andrei. Taniusha was a very 'easy-going' young lady, black-haired, dark, five-and-twenty, free in her manners, and devilishly clever, a Shtchitov in petticoats.
The steward looked at her intently. "Well, Taniusha," he said, "would you like to be married? Our lady has chosen a husband for you?" "Yes, Gavrila Andreitch. And whom has she deigned to name as a husband for me?" she added falteringly. "Kapiton, the shoemaker." "Yes, sir." "He's a feather-brained fellow, that's certain.

'But we are not going into the garden. 'Where then? 'To Long Meadow, to the copse. 'Take Taniusha with you. 'Taniusha, Taniusha! Masha cried musically, flitting lightly as a bird from the room. A quarter of an hour later Masha walked with Kister into the Long Meadow. As she passed the cattle, she gave a piece of bread to her favourite cow, patted it on the head and made Kister stroke it.
Masha was in great good humour and chatted merrily. Kister responded willingly, though he awaited explanations with impatience.... Taniusha walked behind at a respectful distance, only from time to time stealing a sly glance at her young lady. 'You're not angry with me, Fyodor Fedoritch? queried Masha. 'With you, Marya Sergievna? Why, whatever for?
