A woman should be meek, sweet, obedient, fair-skinned, and rosy-cheeked. But what to do if you were born a true little devil and from the very first days of life do not hide your stubbornness and strength of spirit?
Nadenka was...
not fortunate: as soon as she came into the world, her mother immediately took a dislike to her because she wanted a son, but a daughter was born. Therefore, the girl was raised in her father's regiment, excellently rode a horse, and skillfully handled a pistol and a sword. But from time to time, her mother would catch her, like a wild little beast, and introduce her to women's activities — embroidery and knitting to the soothing reading of books.
Unwilling to reconcile with the female destiny of being locked up at home and having no opportunity to take independent steps, Nadenka, not yet reaching eighteen years of age, leaves her father's house at night to join the regiment.
Ahead lies the real military service she had long dreamed of!
