Downton Abbey for your happiness
Chapter 19 Miss Charlotte's Daily Life
The temple will let everyone return home happily, and there is also good news that the earl found a manservant named Raymond, who is said to have worked in London, and later the master moved to the United States with his son, He didn't want to follow, so he took the letter of recommendation and found another house.John didn't care about Raymond's resume, he was happy to finally have Thomas by his side.
Pleasant things happened this month, even Matthew, who, amidst Miss Charlotte's troubles, grew more and more on his terms with Mary.The amazing thing is that the three of them have become good friends, and the old lady didn't forget to add a word when she was anxious: "I really can't understand the young people nowadays. Is it a kind of way to turn a rival into a friend?" Is it the new fashion?"
But Mary still didn't recognize her feelings, and there was always a hurdle in between.Charlotte took it as a challenge to herself, and was so engrossed in advising Matthew that even John was forgotten.
Mary recently invited a Viscount to Downton Abbey as a guest. Even though Charlotte knew that Mary had no intention of marrying Matthew, her main task was to "please" Mr. Viscount.Charlotte complained to her maid: "I really don't know how an English lady is more snobbish than a French lady..."
In the afternoon, the two met to go for a walk by the river, so Charlotte found Mary and proposed to go for a walk with Matthew. The viscount agreed, and Mary could only keep smiling and agree.After thinking about the idea, Charlotte walked around the river for a while, and chose a location for the bodyguards to cover a small piece of grass by the river with slippery mud shoveled from the shallows of the river in advance. Then plant a flower found elsewhere in the grass, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
In the afternoon, Charlotte went to find Matthew. After learning that he went to work, he took a carriage to the town. He attracted a lot of attention along the way, especially when he arrived at the law firm. Grace walked into the office, and when she took Matthew's arm, her previous gaze immediately turned into envy and hatred.Before Matthew asked the other party why he came, Charlotte said, "Matthew, let's go for a walk and have a picnic by the river in the town in the afternoon."
"I still have work to do." Even though he couldn't hate this young lady, it also gave him a headache, so he used work as an excuse to refuse.
"But, I have already agreed with Mary that we will go together in the afternoon. If you can't go, how can I tell Mary?" Charlotte complained intentionally.
Hearing Mary's name, Matthew's writing hand stopped: "Okay, wait until I finish processing these documents."
Knowing that the ladies and gentlemen were going to have a picnic by the river, Carson asked someone to set up the tables and chairs in advance, and sent Thomas and William to follow them with food. The two of them followed the four of them at a certain distance.Charlotte firmly held Matthew's arm, and Mary also held the Viscount in anger when she saw it. Matthew was naturally unhappy, and only the Viscount was happy to find a chance to peek at Charlotte. The atmosphere of the walk had dropped to freezing point, and Mary And Matthew both had to keep smiling.Seeing that the time was almost up, Charlotte pointed to the flowers she had arranged in the distance and said, "Look quickly! Why is there a flower in the grass by the river? Let's go and see!" Then she pulled Mary from the hands of the viscount Running over, the viscount was dumbfounded, but soon he followed up, and when he got close, he heard Charlotte urging Mary to pick flowers. In order to show his courteousness, he took the initiative to say: "Miss Charlotte, you like this flower. Flowers? Please let me pick them for you."
Charlotte really wanted to say which onion you are and what kind of business you are, but she didn't say it, and the Viscount walked on on his own.
"Gudong!" Before the viscount could reach the flower, he was sent to the river by the slippery mud like ice. When people were struggling, they would grab whatever straw they had, so the viscount naturally took the horse closest to him. Xiu was also caught in the river, and Matthew was caught off guard. He swallowed a few big mouthfuls of water and couldn't breathe. His ability to swim turned into a struggle.
Charlotte wanted to laugh when she saw the Viscount go into the water, but when she saw Matthew also entered the water, she was frightened and shouted: "Come on! Someone fell into the river!"
Thomas and William were close, and when they heard the yelling, they ran over quickly, and saw the two gentlemen fall into the river. They took off their coats and were about to go into the water to save others, but they were not ready to enter the water yet. People also slipped into the river.This is a disaster, because it was a picnic designed by Charlotte today. In order to give Matthew a chance to show off, she specially sent away the maids and bodyguards. All the men will be cheated, and only she and him are on the shore. Mary is gone.Charlotte shouted to Mary: "Go and call someone, and tell them not to leave here." Pointing to the grass, she blushed and explained very quickly, "Obviously they all came from here. This fell in, God knows what happened, it's too slippery!"
Thomas was suddenly poured a few mouthfuls of river water, which was really "refreshing". Fortunately, the place where he fell into the river was not very deep. He tried his best to swim upstream, and finally came out of the water. He first took a big breath of fresh air, and then saw William Holding the viscount to swim to the shore, he hurried to pull Mr. Crowley.After finally getting to the shore, he wanted to lift Mr. Crawley up. During this process, Thomas suddenly felt a pain in his foot. When he stepped on the shore, he found that the sole of his foot had been cut by something, and blood was flowing.
Damn it!Thomas thought to himself that he could report at Old Manor the day after tomorrow, and it would be a shame if he limped like Bates when he first showed up.So when Dr. Clarkson took care of the wound later, he wrapped it tightly with a layer of gauze, which made it easier to walk.
This incident of falling into the water alarmed the other members of the earl's family. Seeing that all the men at the scene seemed to have been drowned by Mrs. Patmore, the old lady said in surprise: "It's my eyes that are blurred, or my memory is not good. When did the picnic add a swimming activity?" The awkward atmosphere turned into a scene where everyone held back their laughter, Mary wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh and helped Matthew put on the towel, Matthew was embarrassed to clear up Throat said: "Thank you."
The count, madam, and old lady looked at each other with relief, and were happy with the success of this scene.
For the "heroic rescue" of William and Thomas, the earl gave rewards, and on the day Thomas left, he additionally allowed the other party to be sent there in the manor's carriage.
Since no one told John about this (Charlotte was afraid that her cousin would laugh at her for being smart), so he thought it was just the count's kindness, and he was only happy for Thomas's arrival.
The servants all knew that the new man was Mr. Spencer's most valued valet, second only to the butler, so they saluted him respectfully, which made Thomas very proud.
Immediately afterwards, he saw a tall old man with slightly gray hair and beard standing under the steps. John introduced: "This is Mr. Tom Smith, the housekeeper of the manor."
Tom looked at Thomas for a while. Is this the person the young master is looking for?He was really shocked at the beginning, but he grew up with John and knew his stubborn temper. After accepting it, he thought that the young master would find a movie star at worst, but who would have thought that he would be a manservant!And now it seems that he is still a slightly gloomy male servant.But he had been told in advance, so he shook hands with Thomas and said, "Hello."
Then someone helped him carry his luggage, and John was calm on the surface, but excitedly took Thomas to visit his room.Only the butler and the personal servant lived in the mansion, which was deliberately arranged by John. The two rooms were not far from his bedroom, one on the left and the other on the right. Everyone thought it was because Mr. Spencer could summon them at any time. But I didn't expect that there was a deeper reason...
