"Our poet and doctor of chemistry has fine friends, I must say!" Elisaveta and Elena were walking again on a path close to the road that connected the Prosianiya Meadows and the Rameyev estate. The sisters were glad that it was so still and deserted around them and that the turmoil of life seemed so remote from them.
Doulebov said: "I know he is very stupid and undeveloped, but zealous. If directed properly he can be very useful." Next morning the Headmaster of the National Schools, accompanied by the Vice-Governor and Shabalov, started in their carriages from the Headmaster's offices and drove off to Trirodov's school in the Prosianiya Meadows. They had not yet fully recovered from the previous day's carouse.
His relations with the peasants began to be unbearable. Their own difficulties and his temper led to constant disputes. A reign of spite began: the cattle were driven into the corn, some of the buildings were set afire, some of the peasants were gaoled. The Prosianiya Meadows more than once passed from a period of lavish prosperity to a state of complete and hopeless poverty.
He comprehended and considered the chaste world of the Prosianiya Meadows in the same way as the illiterate sergeant. Only this consideration expressed itself in a milder form. The Commissary of the police tried to be very amiable. He paid awkward compliments to Trirodov and his instructresses. But when he looked at the instructresses the Commissary smiled as detestably as the sergeant.
I live very much alone and so am all the more glad of the fortunate circumstance that has brought me here on a matter of business." "Business?" asked Rameyev in astonishment. "I can put the matter in a few words," said Trirodov. "I wish to extend my estate." There was a tinge of sadness in Rameyev's answer: "You have bought the better part of the Prosianiya Meadows."
Piotr Matov's hostility to Trirodov evidently had its roots in the chance circumstance that Trirodov had bought the house and part of the estate, the Prosianiya Meadows, which formerly belonged to the paternal Matov. Many in the town of Skorodozh remembered very well Dmitry Alexandrovitch Matov, the father of Piotr and Mikhail Matov.
