'Oh, how beautiful; oh, how beautiful! Anna Vassilyevna repeated incessantly; Uvar Ivanovitch kept nodding his head approvingly in response to her enthusiastic exclamations, and once even articulated: 'To be sure! to be sure! From time to time Elena exchanged a few words with Insarov; Zoya held the brim of her large hat with two fingers while her little feet, shod in light grey shoes with rounded toes, peeped coquettishly out from under her pink barege dress; she kept looking to each side and then behind her.
Nikolai Artemyevitch insisted on her not admitting her daughter to her presence; he seemed to be enjoying the opportunity of showing himself in the fullest sense the master of the house, with all the authority of the head of the family; he made an incessant uproar in the household, storming at the servants, and constantly saying: 'I will show you who I am, I will let you know you wait a little! While he was in the house, Anna Vassilyevna did not see Elena, and had to be content with Zoya, who waited on her very devotedly, but kept thinking to herself: 'Diesen Insarof vorziehen und wem? But directly Nikolai Artemyevitch went out and that happened pretty often, Augustina Christianovna had come back in sober earnest Elena went to her mother, and a long time her mother gazed at her in silence and in tears.
I am displeased with you or no that is too little to say: your behaviour is a pain and an outrage to me to me and to your mother your mother whom you see here. Nikolai Artemyevitch was giving vent only to the few bass notes in his voice. Elena gazed in silence at him, then at Anna Vassilyevna and turned pale.
'No, you don't know what I am going to say! cried Nikolai Artemyevitch in a falsetto shriek, suddenly losing the majesty of his oratorical pose, the smooth dignity of his speech, and his bass notes. 'You don't know, vile hussy! 'For mercy's sake, Nicolas, murmured Anna Vassilyevna, 'vous me faites mourir? 'Don't tell me que je vous fais mourir, Anna Vassilyevna!
I beg you to mark that: there are still laws 'But, papa, Elena was beginning. 'I beg you not to interrupt me. Let us turn in thought to the past. I and Anna Vassilyevna have performed our duty. I and Anna Vassilyevna have spared nothing in your education: neither care nor expense.
She felt filled with boundless goodwill and kindness, and wanted to keep not only Insarov, but Bersenyev too, always at her side.... Andrei Petrovitch dimly understood what this meant, and secretly he sighed. The hours flew by; the evening was coming on. Anna Vassilyevna suddenly took alarm. 'Ah, my dear friends, how late it is! she cried.
'Why wouldn't you, continued the giant in vile Russian, 'sing again when our party shouted bis, and bravo? 'Yes, why? came from the ranks of his comrades. Insarov was about to step forward, but Shubin stopped him, and himself screened Anna Vassilyevna. 'Allow me, he began, 'honoured stranger, to express to you the heartfelt amazement, into which you have thrown all of us by your conduct.
But Nikolai Artemyevitch never suspected that Augustina Christianovna, in letters to her cousin, Theodolina Peterzelius, called him Mein Pinselchen. Nikolai Artemyevitch's wife, Anna Vassilyevna, was a thin, little woman with delicate features, and a tendency to be emotional and melancholy. At school, she had devoted herself to music and reading novels; afterwards she abandoned all that.
Several of them had their coats off, their ties, and even their waistcoats; and they shouted 'bis! with such unmannerly insistence that Anna Vassilyevna told the boatmen to row as quickly as possible to the other end of the lake.
From his earliest childhood he had not left his father's house, and under the guidance of his mother, a very good-natured but perfectly stupid woman, Vassilissa Vassilyevna, he grew up spoilt and conceited. She undertook his education alone; Eremey Lukitch, buried in his economical fancies, had no thoughts to spare for it.
