Wait, ”said Peredonov,“ this must be well understood. Here the allegory is hidden. Wolves walk in pairs: a wolf with a hungry wolf. The wolf is well-fed, and the wolf is hungry. The wife should always eat after her husband.

Dressing up, cleaning, washing - all this takes time and work; and the thought of work made Peredonov feel melancholy and fearful. It would be nice to do nothing, eat, drink, sleep - and that's all.

Peredonov tied the cat on a rope - he made a collar out of a handkerchief - and took him to the barber shop. The cat meowed wildly, tossed, resisted, sometimes in desperation he rushed at Peredonov, but Peredonov pushed him away with a stick. The boys were running in a crowd from behind, gurgling, laughing. Passersby stopped. They looked out of the windows at the noise. Peredonov sullenly pulled the cat by the rope, not embarrassed by anything. He brought it back and told the barber: "Master, shave the cat, and be nice." The barber was offended, blushed. He said in a trembling voice: "Excuse me, sir, we don't do this kind of business. And I didn't even have to see shaved cats. This must be the latest fashion, it hasn't reached us yet.

The performance of all the rituals leads to some inner comfort: I went to church on a holiday, prayed - and was right, I sinned, repented - and again I was right.

The director, Nikolai Vlasyevich Khrapov, had a certain number of rules that were so conveniently applied to life that it was not at all burdensome to adhere to them. In his service, he calmly fulfilled everything that was required by laws or orders of his superiors, as well as by the rules of generally accepted moderate liberalism. Therefore, the bosses, parents and students were pleased with the director.

Heredity is a great thing! To leave the men in the bar is stupid, ridiculous, imprudent and immoral. Teach the peasant as much as you want, but don't give him ranks for it.
