Downton Abbey for your happiness

John closed his clothes and lay beside Thomas. He didn't dare to close his eyes, for fear that he would fall asleep after a short nap.This night was very busy for him. In the first half of the night, the towels had to be changed every once in a while, and the fever finally subsided in the second half of the night, but he was still worried about the recurrence of his illness, so he wanted to test the temperature of Thomas' forehead from time to time.Finally, the sky gradually brightened, and the dark room became clear. He didn’t sleep all night. Although he was a little tired, John didn’t feel sleepy. He didn’t feel sleepy until Thomas’ condition stabilized.Before the servants got up, Tom advised him to go back to his room and rest for a while, and the servants should see him in his own room.

"Master, you were too impulsive last night. Not only was it dangerous, but it would be bad if it caused rumors." When Tom left the room, he still couldn't help saying.

I know Tom is right, but John is still bored, the devil!After World War I, he had to find a chance to start a movement, at least to make homosexuality no longer illegal.

He sat in the bedroom for a while, listening to the movement next door, without feeling sleepy at all.Tom arranged for a manservant to take care of Thomas. He was not worried, but he was unwilling that the first person he saw when he woke up was not him.What a helpless thing!So John wandered to the study in a daze, and by the time he realized it was standing in front of the study, why not kill the time with work, he thought.

When the maid took the cleaning tool and opened the study door, she was frightened and froze on the spot. She suspected that she was dazzled. How could she see Mr. Spencer sitting at the desk in full dress and looking at something?But she was right, and then she wondered if she got up late, God, what a terrible morning!Mr. Spencer didn't seem to see her, holding the book motionless, his eyes staring at the same place in a daze, she was in a dilemma for a while, until another maid also came in and found that she was not working and shouted: "Hu Li! Why are you standing around? You can't be in...Mr. Spencer without cleaning? You...how are you here?"

The person who was discovered came back to his senses, and said vaguely: "I'm sorry, you can go clean it, and leave me alone."

The two maids looked at each other, and could only awkwardly start cleaning.Then a footman came in and said: "Mr. Spencer, Butler Smith has asked me to tell you that Mr. Barrow is awake."

John stood up with a jerk, and the chair bounced back.After he left in a hurry, the servant and the maid looked at each other in surprise. It seems that Mrs. Lance said that Mr. Spencer attached great importance to this personal servant.

When John came to the room, Thomas should have just woken up, with a sleepy look, and he still didn't forget to order the servant who took care of him around. John, who was already full of anger, saw this scene, and half of his anger disappeared before entering the room.However, he rubbed his face and walked in with a straight face after brewing a good mood. He coldly sent the servant away, sat on a chair and said, "This will be very energetic. I think your pain is still light." .”

Seeing that John was angry, Thomas didn't understand why the other party was angry. Shouldn't he comfort him like the Earl comforted Bates?So Thomas explained: "I don't want to look so unprofessional like Mr. Bates when I arrive at the manor. I didn't expect to cause so much trouble..."

"Trouble? Of course it's big trouble!" John walked quickly to the bed, held Thomas' hand, looked directly at him and said, "You know you scared me last night!"

It turned out that he was worried about him. Thomas was very proud, as if a child had mastered the power to be the prime minister, but on the surface he had to admit his mistake: "I'm sorry, I won't do this again next time."

"Dare to have a next time! If there is a next time, I won't care."

"Got it." Thomas shook John's hand back.

At this moment, John's tone suddenly softened: "Don't be brave in the future, don't scare me..."

"Then don't scare me. I heard that you rode to the doctor's house last night. It was too dangerous." Thomas was deeply moved when he heard the servant tell him what happened after he fell asleep last night. Well, he managed to get close to such an excellent man, so he didn't want to have any accidents.

"It's not that you suddenly fell ill and made me flustered." Although he didn't say anything, John was excited because Thomas was worried about him.

In fact, besides making John feel distressed when Thomas is sick in bed, there are still some advantages. For example, as the host, he can wander in from time to time in the name of visiting the sick to get some benefits. Although there is no way to do a full set, at least the other party helps He explained it a bit, which is considered substantial progress.Johann was so happy that the sun was shining all day, he didn't blame the clumsy kitchen maid for putting in the wrong seasoning, and reassured Mrs. Lance that she would try to make some.The little girl asked the housekeeper inexplicably: "Can Mr. Barrow tell jokes? Why is Mr. Spencer so happy to visit Mr. Barrow?"

With everyone in the kitchen watching, the butler said as calmly as possible, "Thomas is, I think, in some ways... a pleasant man."

Then all the servants suddenly realized after listening, as if they understood, the little maid nodded and said: "I really didn't realize that Mr. Barrow is such a humorous person, he seems to be difficult to get along with." " The housekeeper was tired, he felt that it was not easy for the young master to gather such a group of simple-hearted people.

In addition, John was afraid that Thomas would be bored, so he went to the town to buy some novels, because it turned out that his bookshelves were full of boring and old-fashioned books about military, business, weapons, mathematics, etc., and only his advanced engineering in his previous life Men can read with gusto, Charlotte was quite puzzled by this before, how can a person be so interested in those books that make people fall asleep?

John would also play a few pieces of music to make Thomas happy, which really surprised Thomas. He didn't expect the "old-fashioned and boring" Mr. Spencer to play the piano so well. hinder his appreciation.Of course, it’s enough to think about this kind of surprise in your heart. If you say it, although John doesn’t mind it on the surface, he will actually find it “elsewhere”.

After being out of business for a while, the butler couldn't stand it any longer, so he asked John to express his advice tactfully. The general meaning was, young master, have you forgotten the king's invitation?If you continue to talk about love with eagles and birds like this, the king will cry and faint in the toilet.And it doesn't look like your own cousin is always placed in other people's manors under the fence.

Although John was reluctant, but the fact was like this, he had no choice but to send a telegram to Charlotte first, and make an appointment to pick her up.
