Арина Петровна даже глаза зажмурила: так это хорошо ей показалось, что все живут на всём на готовеньком, у всех-то всё припасено, а она одна - целый-то день мается да всем тяготы носит. (М. Салтыков-Щедрин, Господа Головлёвы) — Arina Petrovna closed her eyes, it was so delightful to think of everyone living carefree, everything provided for them, while she alone knew no rest from morning to night bearing other people's burdens.

Сделались наши генералы весёлые, рыхлые, сытые, белые. Стали говорить, что вот они здесь на всём готовом живут, а в Петербурге, между тем, пенсии ихние всё накапливаются. (М. Салтыков-Щедрин, Повесть о том, как один мужик двух генералов прокормил) — The two officials were blithe and merry and became so nice and plump that it was good to look at them. 'It's not so bad here, after all,' they would say. 'Here we are, we have all we want, and at home in St. Petersburg our pensions are piling up into a tidy sum.'
