Chapter 71 (1/2)

Back in Petersburg, Anna felt like she was in another world.

Compared with the fresh and comfortable atmosphere in the suburbs, the air in the city seems to be full of noisy and flashy atmosphere.

Andre has been in Russia for too long.

”For another week, I don't understand how they think it's been too long.” Andre complained.

Charlie patted him on the shoulder and gave him a light smile. ”Maybe they're afraid you'll grow horns out of their sight.” He made a funny long horn gesture and made Andrea laugh.

Two boys are gabbling in the carriage. Anna looks at them and sighs.

She had never met such a good friend herself.

Anna was, and still is, very easy to get along with others. Although she is not always the oldest, she can always take care of others, but the giggling girls in her place do not always understand some of her stereotypical ideas. Sometimes she felt like she was born in the wrong era.

Anna doesn't rely on electronics, and she's never very social. When people talk about her, almost no one says she's not good, just like ”ah, it's a good girl.”. It is rich in praise, but not good.

Fortunately, there is always a world of her own in her heart.

Her eyes are clear and her heart is happy, so she always sees the best side of things. It's like now, out of admiration, Anna looks out of the carriage window.

She appreciates the delicacy of the times, the pedestrians on the old streets, the street lamps on the corner, and the women with children. Some wore Satin skirts, some wore plain coarse cloth, and some children from poor families were playing around on the street, because the weather was getting warmer and warmer, each of them showed his thin legs.

”Are we here?” Andrea asked.

The boy's hair is a little messy, but his face is red. He is a little grumpy when he sips his mouth. Now he is completely gone, just like an ordinary little boy with some sweetness.

Anna raises her hand and tries to smooth Andre's hair, who shakes her head and still doesn't like the contact.

”All right.” She sighed, pretending to be sad.

”You can touch mine.” Charlie said, and put out the golden cerebellar pouch.

”You're not a pet.” Andrea snorted.

”Oh, there's nothing wrong with being a pet.” Charlie turned his eyes and said he got a stare, as if he were a traitor in a little man.

Anna was in a good mood. She touched Charlie's head and said, ”listen, we're here.”

”How do you know?” Charlie asked.

”Peter will kick the board when he is about to arrive.” Anna explains.

After a while, Peter, the driver of the rickshaw, told them in a loud voice that they had arrived.

”I want a nice brooch.” Andrea murmured, and then got out of the carriage, with the boy's characteristic impatience, but instead of flinging his head in, he was slightly impatient, waiting for Anna to get out of the carriage.

”Little gentleman.” Anna made a joke, took Andrea's raised hand a little, and got out of the carriage.

The boy blushed a little.

Charlie said, ”you know he adores your husband.”

”Oh, shut up, Charlie.” Said Andrea hastily, then pushed his friend. This time he was the first to run into the shop, with the blonde boy following him.

”Please wait around for a while.” Anna said to the coachman.

Peter laughed in a relaxed tone: ”you can watch them slowly. Master Andrey is a dutiful child

Anna knew that Peter was referring to Andrea's gift for her mother. Although at his age he began to want to let himself experience the impulse of growing up by being away from the care of his parents, his love for his mother was not less.

Seeing that the boy had already run to the store, Anna stepped in.

This is a jewelry store, which is quite popular in Petersburg recently.

Anna first found Andre and their location, and then began to look at the shop.

The owner is a middle-aged couple with a young daughter. But now I don't see the couple, only a busy woman.

The woman wore a plaid skirt. She was thin, but the lines of her shoulders and neck were very beautiful. Her red hair was simple but beautiful.

When Anna first came in, the girl was looking for something with her back to them. When she looked up and spoke to Anna with a lively face, they were both slightly surprised.

The young girl has a pair of slender eyebrows, pupil is a light glass color, with white skin, more showing a youthful and lively beauty, and the most amazing thing is that when the girl laughs, Anna thinks they are five points similar.”Ah”

the little girl was still too young, because she was shocked, she couldn't help but blurt out. After that, the smile on the corner of her mouth dissipated and became a little scared. After all, Anna was dressed in splendid clothes, and every piece of jewelry and silk clothes on her body, as well as that bearing, told the little girl that the person in front of her was extraordinary.

And worst of all, she didn't know if this incredible similarity would upset the lady in front of her.

Anna guessed her idea from her worried face, so she said with a smile, ”I thought your shop is very suitable for me because of the jewelry, but now it seems that maybe it's because I have a chance to see people who are quite similar to themselves in the world.”

Hearing this, the girl raised her head cautiously, and was relieved to see that Anna was still smiling. She gave a shy smile.

”How kind of you, Madame.” She said so, then introduced the ornaments to Anna in a more enthusiastic voice. It's as if Anna was a little amiable, and she suddenly turned the latter from a rich guest to a friend.

While listening to the girl's introduction, Anna thought carefully in her heart: ”if she did not become Anna, or in this era, if she is still more lucky, it may be so simple and natural.”

She was thinking about it, and then an audacious voice disturbed them.
