When he returned to the country in June, he went back to his ordinary occupations – husbandry, intercourse with the peasants and with his neighbours, management of his house and of his sister's and brother's affairs, which were entrusted to him, relations with his wife and relatives, cares about his baby, and a new hobby – beekeeping, which he took up with enthusiasm that spring – occupied all his time.
Вернувшись в начале июня в деревню, он вернулся и к своим обычным занятиям. Хозяйство сельское, отношения с мужиками и соседями, домашнее хозяйство, дела сестры и брата, которые были у него на руках, отношения с женою, родными, заботы о ребенке, новая пчелиная охота, которою он увлекся с нынешней весны, занимали все его время.
