Downton Abbey for your happiness

Chapter 18 Downton Temple Fair

The afternoon before the Downton Temple Fair, John came to Downton Abbey in a carriage as promised. After several days of hard work, he finally finished processing the backlog of documents. He felt as if he had returned to his student days. In the first few days of the perfect summer vacation, Shu Shuang desperately finished his homework. It seems that being an overbearing CEO is not easy.

After accepting the earl's banquet, he still called Thomas into the bedroom, excitedly took out the messy telegram and said, "I received your telegram, are you so concerned about me?"

"Yeah, your spirit is not as good as it was a while ago." Thomas admitted generously this time, put his hands on John's shoulders, and said closer and closer to John's cheek.

"The spirit of kissing you is still there." How can you not eat the "delicious" delivered to your door?

After the kiss was over, the two of them had already rolled onto the bed, their breathing was a little unsteady, John turned his head and asked, "Have you received the pocket watch I gave you?"

"Ah."

"Do you like it?" John pecked each other's lips lightly.

"I like it." Thomas was very obedient at the moment.

"This watch is my mother's relic. I have always carried it with me to protect me after my mother's accident. Now it will protect you."

Thomas turned over and looked directly at John. He had never heard John talk about his parents. Although the other party spoke calmly, he could always feel the sadness in his heart, just like him.He took out his pocket watch and stroked it, saying, "This is too precious."

"You are more precious." John wrapped the other's hand holding the watch and said with a kiss.

As if feeling that the topic was too depressing, Thomas changed the question: "What about your father?"

"He also fell ill and died when I was in college. Later, my two uncles and my uncle took care of me, so my relationship with Uncle Winston is so good." John still didn't seem to care about revealing his old story. Scar, answered Thomas in detail.

But the more this happened, the more Thomas could empathize with him. For the first time, he felt sorry for John. Before, he always felt that the other party was pampered and had everything. cared for him...

"sorry."

John couldn't see Thomas' dull look, and jokingly said, "I'm sorry, do you want to give me some compensation?"

The atmosphere slowly warmed up, and Thomas' expression relaxed a little. Just like that, the two kissed together again, but it was a pity that they still couldn't do a complete set.When sending Thomas back to his room to sleep, John patted his head and said, "Let the past pass, and you don't need to worry about the past. I'm here."

That sentence has me made Thomas feel very at ease and had a good night's sleep.The next day, he asked Carson for a hypothesis to go to the temple fair with Mr. Spencer in the evening. This time, Carson graciously agreed and did not tell him when to come back.Without his disturbance, William successfully invited Daisy, and Bates and Anna settled their worries, dressed up happily and set off as if it were a date.

When he got there, John felt very kind when he saw the ones with loops. He bought a few loops for 5p for the boss. He thought that his marksmanship was so good that it would be just as good if he put a loop on his head. In fact, other people thought so too. Yes, but he didn't expect to spend a shilling on even the smallest thing.I don't know why he saw it very accurately, but his hands just didn't obey the command. John was not convinced and made a joke. Thomas was watching from the side. How could he admit defeat, so he simply gave the boss 1 pound, which made the boss laugh from ear to ear. Not this strange gentleman anymore.

Maybe it’s because John really doesn’t have the talent for trapping. For £1, he didn’t hit a single trap. He accurately avoided the target, and the boss looked sympathetically at him. Finally, he gave away a small puppet for free. .John was very depressed. If Thomas hadn't pulled him away in time, he wanted to continue trying. He didn't believe that the sharpshooter would become a handicapped party when he got to the trap.

Seeing John's childishness again, Thomas laughed in his heart while taking him to the place where the archery was held, finally allowing John to regain his confidence.

But the boss is about to cry, no matter how fast he turns the turntable, the handsome young man on the opposite side can always hit the red □□ field, and if this continues, his prizes of 2 shillings can be contracted.Fortunately, in the end, under the admiring eyes of Thomas, John not only returned all the prizes to the boss, but also paid an extra £1, and the boss who was about to cry burst into laughter.

At this time, Thomas saw a beer seller not far away and wanted to have a drink. Of course, John asked Thomas and a few others to wait by the campfire for a while, and he took the initiative to take on the task of running errands.Daisy and William looked at each other, only Bates and Anna knew clearly.Anna smiled and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Spencer to have such a childish side."

"As the saying goes, a man is always a child who can't grow up in front of the one he loves. I think there is a grain of truth in this." Bates looked at Anna, then at Thomas and said.

Still confused, Daisy asked, "What do you mean?"

"Just ask William." Anna intentionally said to match the two of them.

After listening to Bates' words, did Thomas also recall when he was childish in front of John?What did the other party think at that time?Do you also find him very interesting?

Just when he was in a trance, a wine bottle dangled in front of him, and then John's voice came: "Why are you so obsessed with thinking?"

Thomas originally wanted to say, "I'm thinking of you." But there were other people around him, so he had to change his words: "I was thinking that there are a lot of people around there, and I don't know what they are doing."

"It's hard to think about it, you'll know if you go and have a look."

Several people joined the crowd and came to the crowd. It turned out that it was a fire-breathing person who attracted everyone. He held a torch and sprayed huge flames from his mouth from time to time. In the eyes of the children, it was like a fire in a fairy tale. The fire-breathing dragon is so novel!Groups of children clapped their hands around this fire-breathing figure. One of the four or five-year-old girls was patronizing the wonderful performance, but she bumped into Thomas without realizing that there was someone behind her, and then fell down again. to the ground.Anna's eyesight and hands quickly helped the little girl up, but she was already crying.Thomas, who was innocently hit, was at a loss as he watched Anna kneel down to comfort the crying little girl, but it had little effect.At this moment, John picked up the little girl, patted her on the back and said, "Beautiful girl, if you make a face out of crying, how embarrassing it is for your companions to see you. Let's sign an agreement. If you don't cry, I will How about buying you a jar of that colorful candy?" After he finished speaking, he stretched out his palm, and the little girl stopped crying when she heard that there were tempting candies. Wiped away the tears, smiled and jumped to the ground to share the good news with my friends.

"Mr. Spencer, you seem to be very good at coaxing children?" Anna asked.

"If you have a lot of relatives, you'll be good at it too. They're such little angels when they're not crying, but when they're crying, you've got to struggle trying to distract them. It’s even more thankless than work!”

Although most of John's words were complaints, everyone could feel his love for children. Bates thought worriedly that if Mr. Spencer was determined to be with Thomas, it would be impossible to have children.

Thomas also has the same idea, why doesn't he like children?So when John happily stood in front of the candy stand and let the little girl choose at will, he asked sullenly: "Do you like children very much?"

John immediately understood what Thomas meant, and he said calmly, "Yes."

"But we can't have children of our own."

"Just give me a bad time." John said in a low voice, pinched Thomas' waist, scared the other party back a few steps before coming back and said: "It will be miserable for anyone who sees so many people."

"Well, there's nothing difficult about it. If you like children, I can afford to adopt ten in the future. If there is no suitable one, we will have nothing to regret when we grow old."

"But don't you have uncles and uncles? They won't mention the issue of children in the future?" Seeing that Earl Grantham was worried about the heir, he was also worried that John's family would force him to marry.

"This is a problem, but not a big one. Uncle Lister knew about me a long time ago. The process is not important, but the result is that he no longer interferes with my marriage. Uncle Winston chose to tolerate me, but we agreed that we could not Let my aunt know. Among the close relatives, only Uncle Maxwell does not know now. He is a traditional person, and his heart is not good. Uncle Lister said that if I tell him in person, maybe I can send him to see God in advance. "John said as he talked, it seemed that some funny picture appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing.

Thomas also laughed, and the atmosphere returned to the warm atmosphere just now. At this time, the little girl also finished choosing, and ran towards John with a jar of heart-shaped candies. After paying the money, the little girl took out a candy from the jar. A candy was handed to John, and it "flyed" away lightly like a happy butterfly.John turned and stuffed the candy into Thomas's mouth, looking at him with a smile.
