Not long after, the nanny turned a corner from the mall and led Grisha into a courtyard with shiny snow buttons. The man followed them around the snow puddle with a little heart and entered a room with a smoky smell of fried meat. A woman stood in front of the stove and fried meat pies. The nanny kissed her, and then the man sat on the stool and talked lightly. Grisha’s clothes were wrapped up and felt unbearable and stuffy.
What are you doing here? He looked around and thought.
He saw the dark ceiling, the two-corner poker stove and the stove looked like a big hole in the dark.
Mom, he drawled and shouted.
Come on, come on, don’t shout at the nanny, just wait a little longer
The cook put a bottle of two wine glasses and a pie on the table. The buttons of the two women were shining. The man clinked glasses and drank several times. The man hugged the nanny for a while and hugged the cook for a while. Then the three of them sang softly together.
Grisha reached for the meat pie, and the adults gave it to him. He ate and watched the nanny drink, and he also wanted to drink.
I want to drink it for the nanny, too, he said
The cook asked him to take a sip from her cup. He was choked, bulging his eyes, frowning and coughing for a long time. The cook waved his hand and smiled.
When he got home, Grisha told his mother what he heard and saw on the wall bed. He not only talked, but also showed his face with his hands to help demonstrate the sun. how bright horse ran on that stove and the terrible cook drank.
He couldn’t sleep at night, with birch branches and brooms under his arms, soldiers, big cats, glass fragments, orange bowls and shiny buttons, all of which gathered into a ball and pressed his brain. He was so excited that he couldn’t help crying at last.
You have a fever. Mom touched his forehead and said, What the hell is going on?
Furnace Grisha cried, furnace, you go
Even if I ate too much, my mother asserted.
Grisha had just experienced life, and the new impression was about to burst his little brain, but then his mother poured him a spoonful of castor oil.
In 1886
Know a man
Charming Wanda can also be recorded as an honorary citizen by ID card. Na Stasija, Canaff, Jin Nangang Hospital is in trouble, and it is good to be safe and penniless.
The first thing she did was to go to the pawnshop and pawn the only valuable turquoise ring. She bought a ruble, but what can a ruble buy? This money can’t buy a fashionable coat, a beautiful top hat, and bronze shoes. Without these things, she always feels like she is naked. She feels that she is not a pedestrian. Even those horses and dogs stare at her and laugh at her shabby clothes. She is obsessed with wearing clothes and talking about eating and lodging. She doesn’t care at all.
If I want to meet a man I know, she thinks I can get the money, and no one will refuse me.
But I haven’t met any acquaintance men. There were quite a few acquaintances in the Renaissance Club. But now she is wearing this ordinary dress and doesn’t wear a hat. What should I do if people don’t let her in? She is tired of walking and sitting. After a long period of trouble, Wanda decided to go to the door and ask some money from some acquaintance man.
Who are you looking for? She thinks about Misha. No, he’s a family man. The old man with red hair is in class.
Wanda thought of a dentist, Finkel, a Jew who converted to the East. This man gave her a bracelet three months ago and once had dinner at a German club. She poured a glass of beer on his head and thought of Finkel. She was very happy.
If he is at home, he will definitely give money. She thought all the way, if you don’t give it to me, you will smash his lights.
When she came to the dentist’s door, she had already made up her mind. She giggled and ran up the stairs to ask him for 25 rubles, but she tried to ring the doorbell. Somehow, the idea escaped from her mind. Wanda suddenly became timid and flustered. This was never before. In fact, she dared to wear a homely dress among a group of drunkards. At best, this kind of person was an ordinary beggar. When she thought of it, she felt guilty for a few minutes and was several inches shorter.
Maybe people have forgotten me. She thinks she just doesn’t dare to ring the bell. Dressed so shabby, she asks me to meet him, just like a flower or an ordinary citizen.
She rang the doorbell hesitantly
The door was followed by a janitor.
Is the doctor at home? she asked
At this time, the doorman said that she would be happier if she wasn’t there, but the other party didn’t answer, so she let her into the lobby to help her take off her coat. The stairs here felt so magnificent, but in the magnificent furnishings, she first noticed that it was a big mirror that reflected a tattered man without a beautiful hat and a fashionable coat. Wanda was very surprised at why she was dressed so shabby now, but she looked like a seamstress or a washerwoman. She was ashamed and had no audacity. In her heart, she didn’t recognize Byakki Smoker as Wanda, but the former Nasca Canaff Jinna 14.
Said the maid, leading her into the consulting room. The doctor will be with you in a minute.
Wanda got into the soft chair.
