AGRAFÉNA KONDRÁTYEVNA. Congratulate the bride and groom to be, Ustinya Naúmovna! God has brought us to a ripe old age; we have lived to see happiness! USTÍNYA NAÚMOVNA. What have I got to congratulate you with, my jewels? My mouth's too dry to sing your praises. BOLSHÓV. Well, now, we'll wet your whistle. The same, FOMÍNISHNA, and TISHKA, who is bringing wine on a tray.
USTÍNYA NAÚMOVNA. That's enough trying to scare me! You've muddled my head completely. PODKHALYÚZIN. Here, take these hundred rubles in silver as earnest-money, and give us your hand on it, ma'am. USTÍNYA NAÚMOVNA. And you say, my jewel, two thousand rubles and a sable cloak? PODKHALYÚZIN. Exactly so, ma'am. Be at rest on that score!
USTÍNYA NAÚMOVNA. Aha! here's a matter of a different sort. But so that you won't find life a bore, the house and shops go to you, Lázar, in place of dowry, and I'll throw in some ready cash. PODKHALYÚZIN. Many thanks, daddy; I'm well satisfied with what you've done for me as it is. BOLSHÓV. Nothing to thank me for! They're my own goods I made 'em myself. I give 'em to whomever I please.
The same and USTÍNYA NAÚMOVNA Why do you have such a steep staircase, my jewels? You climb, and climb, and much as ever you get there! LÍPOCHKA. Oh, here she is! How are you, Ustinya Naúmovna? USTÍNYA NAÚMOVNA. Don't get in a hurry! There's people older than you. How did you feel when you got up? How did you pass the night? All alive, my precious? AGRAFÉNA KONDRÁTYEVNA. Thank the Lord!
