Good luck!

Count Ilya Andreich arrived in Moscow at the end of January with Natasha and Sonya. The Countess was still unwell and could not travel, but it was impossible to wait for her recovery: Prince Andrei was expected in Moscow every day; in addition, it was necessary to purchase a dowry, it was necessary to sell the property near Moscow, and it was necessary to take advantage of the presence of the old prince in Moscow to introduce him to his future daughter-in-law. The Rostovs' house in Moscow was unheated; besides, they came to short time, the countess was not with them, and therefore Ilya Andreich decided to stay in Moscow with Marya Dmitrievna Akhrosimova, who had long offered her hospitality to the count. Late in the evening, four of the Rostovs' carts drove into Marya Dmitrievna's yard in Staraya Konyushennaya. Marya Dmitrievna lived alone. She has already married off her daughter. Her sons were all in the service. She still held herself straight, spoke just as directly, loudly and decisively to everyone her opinion and with her whole being seemed to reproach other people for all sorts of weaknesses, passions and hobbies, which she did not recognize as possible. From early morning, in a short coat, she did housework, then on holidays she went to mass and from mass to prisons and prisons, where she had business that she did not tell anyone about, and on weekdays, after getting dressed, she received petitioners of different classes at home. who came to her every day, and then had lunch; at dinner, which was hearty and tasty, there were always three or four guests; after lunch I made a game of Boston; At night she forced herself to read newspapers and new books, and she knitted. She rarely made exceptions for trips, and if she did, she went only to the most important people in the city. She had not yet gone to bed when the Rostovs arrived and the door on the block in the hall squealed, letting in the Rostovs and their servants who were coming in from the cold. Marya Dmitrievna, with glasses down on her nose, throwing her head back, stood in the doorway of the hall and looked at those entering with a stern, angry look. One would have thought that she was embittered against the visitors and would now throw them out, if she had not at this time been giving careful orders to people on how to accommodate the guests and their things. - Counts? Bring it here,” she said, pointing to the suitcases and not greeting anyone. - Young ladies, here, to the left. Well, why are you fawning! - she shouted at the girls. - Samovar to warm you up! She’s gained weight, she’s gotten prettier,” she said, pulling Natasha, flushed from the cold, by her hood. - Ugh, cold! “Undress quickly,” she shouted at the count, who wanted to approach her hand. - Probably frozen. Serve some rum for tea! Sonyushka, bonjour,” she said to Sonya, highlighting her slightly contemptuous and affectionate attitude towards Sonya with this French greeting. When everyone, having undressed and recovered from the road, came to tea, Marya Dmitrievna kissed everyone in order. “I’m glad with my soul that they came and that they stopped with me,” she said. “It’s high time,” she said, looking significantly at Natasha... “The old man is here, and they are expecting their son any day now.” We must, we must meet him. Well, we’ll talk about this later,” she added, looking at Sonya with a look that showed that she did not want to talk about it in front of her. “Now listen,” she turned to the count, “what do you need tomorrow?” Who will you send for? Shinshina? - she bent one finger, - crybaby Anna Mikhailovna - two. She's here with her son. My son is getting married! Then Bezukhova, or what? And he's here with his wife. He ran away from her, and she ran after him. He dined with me on Wednesday. Well, as for them,” she pointed to the young ladies, “tomorrow I’ll take them to Iverskaya, and then we’ll go to Ober-Shelme.” After all, you will probably do everything new? Don't take it from me, these days sleeves are what they are! The other day, the young Princess Irina Vasilyevna came to see me: I was afraid to look, as if she had put two barrels on her hands. After all, today is the day - new fashion. What's going on with you? — she turned sternly to the count. “Everything suddenly came together,” answered the count. - Buy rags, and then there’s a buyer for the Moscow region and for the house. If you're so kind, I'll find some time, go to Maryinskoye for a day, and show you my girls. - Okay, okay, I’ll be intact. It’s like in the Board of Trustees. “I’ll take them where they need to go, scold them, and caress them,” said Marya Dmitrievna, touching the cheek of her favorite and goddaughter Natasha with her big hand. The next morning, Marya Dmitrievna took the young ladies to Iverskaya and m-me Ober-Shalme, who was so afraid of Marya Dmitrievna that she always gave her outfits at a loss, just to get her out of her hands as quickly as possible. Marya Dmitrievna ordered almost the entire dowry. When she returned, she kicked everyone except Natasha out of the room and called her favorite to her chair. - Well, now let's talk. Congratulations on your fiance. Got the guy! I'm happy for you; and I’ve known him since those years (she pointed to an arshin from the ground). - Natasha blushed joyfully. - I love him and his whole family. Now listen. You know, old Prince Nikolai really did not want his son to get married. Good old man! It is, of course, Prince Andrei is not a child and will manage without him, but it is not good to enter the family against his will. It must be peaceful, loving. You are smart, you will be able to get by as needed. Treat yourself kindly and wisely. Everything will be fine. Natasha was silent, as Marya Dmitrievna thought, out of shyness, but, in essence, Natasha was unpleasant that Prince Andrei’s love affair was being interfered with in her affair, which seemed to her so special from all human affairs that no one, according to her concepts, could understand him . She loved and knew one Prince Andrei, he loved her and was supposed to come one of these days and take her. She didn't need anything else. “You see, I’ve known him for a long time, and I love Mashenka, your sister-in-law.” Sisters-in-law are beaters, but this one won’t hurt a fly. She asked me to set her up with you. Tomorrow you and your father will go to her, and give her a good hug: you are younger than her. Once yours arrives, you already know your sister and father and they love you. Yes or no? Surely it will be better? “Better,” Natasha answered reluctantly.

Marya Nikolaevna Bolkonskaya is the daughter of Prince Nikolai Andreevich Bolkonsky. Her whole life was filled with continuous studies, because her father wanted to develop two main virtues in his daughter - activity and intelligence. The prince gave her lessons in algebra and geometry. But “the princess was as disorderly as her father was decent.”

Marya Nikolaevna had an ugly, weak body and a thin face. Her eyes, large, deep and radiant, always remained sad, but were so beautiful, “that very often, despite the ugliness of the whole face, these eyes became more attractive than beauty.”

Marya Nikolaevna loved her family, parents' house. She respected her father and loved him, although he had bad character. Everything he did “aroused in her a reverence that was not subject to discussion.”

The princess loved her brother, Prince Andrei, and looked at him with love and sadness in her eyes upon his arrival from St. Petersburg to the Lesnye Gory.

Marya Nikolaevna was a lively person, reacting to any change in the mood of those around her. She was upset if the prince was out of sorts, rejoiced at the arrival of her fiancé Anatole, worried and flared up, became ugly and prettier literally before our eyes.

“When thinking about marriage, Princess Marya dreamed of family happiness and children, but her main, strongest dream was earthly love.” The princess was worried and was in constant doubt about this.

The main impulse of her heart were the words: “Don’t desire anything for yourself, don’t search, don’t worry, don’t envy.” Masha believed in the unknown of human destiny and in the will of God for everything, “without whose will not a single hair will fall from a human head.”

Marya Nikolaevna naively saw love, kindness and openness of soul in all people. So Anatole, who was driven only by passion and greed, appeared to her as kind, brave, decisive, courageous and generous.

The princess always sacrificed herself and was glad for the happiness of other people.

“My calling is to be happy with another kind of happiness, the happiness of love and self-sacrifice... I will be so happy when she is his wife...” - this is what she thought when she saw Anatole with another woman in the garden.

This is Nikolaevna Bolkonskaya - naive, kind, open-hearted, dreamy, smart and happy with the happiness of others.
