Everything in the house went on as before. There were no festivities in honour of Vera's name day, as she had expressed a wish that there should be none. Neither Marfinka nor the Vikentevs came; a messenger was sent to Kolchino with the announcement that Vera Vassilievna was unwell and was keeping her room.
The house was early astir to bid Raisky Godspeed. Tushin and the young Vikentevs had come, Marfinka, a marvel of beauty, amiability and shyness. Tatiana Markovna looked sad, but she pulled herself together and avoided sentiment. "Stay with us," she said reproachfully. "You do not even know, yourself, where you are going." "To Rome, Grandmother." "What for? To see the Pope?" "To be a sculptor."
Everything of value furniture, pictures, even the parquet flooring had been taken out of the old house and stored, partly in the new house, partly in outhouses and on the ground. Tatiana Markovna and Vera intended to go to Novosselovo, and later on to visit the Vikentevs; for the summer they were invited to be the guests of Anna Ivanovna, Tushin's sister, at "Smoke."
