Из всех виденных им же́нщин, той, что, по его мы́слям, подходи́ла ему лу́чше други́х, была́ вдова примерно его во́зраста с двумя детьми́, и она, ду́мал он, была́ бы не только хорошей домохозя́йкой, но и до́брой приемной ма́терью для его ма́ленькой Василисы.
Of all the women he saw, however, the one who, to his mind, suited him best of all, was a widow of about his own age with two daughters of her own, and she, he thought, besides being a good housekeeper, would be a kind foster mother to his little Vasilissa.
Так что купе́ц жени́лся на вдове́ и привел её в свой дом свое́й жено́й, но маленькая де́вочка вскоре поняла́, что её приемная мать была́ совсем не тако́й, как ду́мал её ба́тюшка. Она была́ холо́дной жесто́кой же́нщиной, кото́рой купе́ц был ну́жен лишь из-за его бога́тства, и в ней не бы́ло любви́ к его до́чери.
So the merchant married the widow and brought her home as his wife, but the little girl soon found that her foster mother was very far from being what her father had thought. She was a cold, cruel woman, who had desired the merchant for the sake of his wealth, and had no love for his daughter.
Теперь же пришло́ вре́мя, когда пона́добилось купцу́ поки́нуть свой дом и отпра́виться в далекое ца́рство. Попроща́лся он со свое́й жено́й и двумя её дочерьми́, поцелова́л Василису, благослови́л её и уе́хал, попросив их моли́ться ка́ждый день за его счастли́вое возвраще́ние.
Now there came a time when it became necessary for the merchant to leave his home and to travel to a distant Tsardom. He bade farewell to his wife and her two daughters, kissed Vasilissa and gave her his blessing and departed, bidding them say a prayer each day for his safe return.
