Downton Abbey for your happiness

Patmore, the cook who messed up the banquet, sat by the stove and cried heartbroken. Under the persuasion of everyone, she had to admit that she had a serious eye problem, but what can be done?If it can't be cured, it won't be able to do this job. For a while, everyone thinks of Patmore, and they feel a little sad, but they can only help her cover it up except for sympathy.

After the dinner, John Spencer was left in the manor. Thomas volunteered to serve the guests. Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, he saw Mr. Spencer changing his pajamas. Muscles, he panicked at once, forgetting all the words he had thought of, and stammered: "I...I...Mr. Spencer, do you need anything?"

He didn't dare to look up at the other party, and when the voice sounded, the other party had already put on his clothes, and said in a gentle voice, "No need, I'll just do it myself, you can make up your mind."

The family had clearly refused, and Thomas was about to close the door and leave in disappointment, when he heard Mr. Spencer say, "Wait a minute, I'll give you these late-night snacks. I'm not used to eating late-night snacks. Okay, there's nothing else to do." Then he gave him a plate of delicate snacks.

On the way back to the room, Thomas couldn't figure out what this meant, was it interesting to him?But the other party's indifferent attitude is not like...

When he came to the guest room the next morning, he found it was empty. After asking Carson, he found out that Mr. Spencer got up early in the morning, said hello to every servant, and went out for a walk. Startled.

Thomas thought: What a strange man...

Earl Grantham was called to the study by Mr. Spencer after breakfast. He was curious that they didn't know each other well. If the other party asked him for something, did he want to leave?

But Mr. Spencer's words surprised him: "Mr. Earl, when I asked your maid to say hello to Mrs. Cook this morning, I heard the shocking news. You know that Mrs. Patmore has cataracts." ?"

"My God, I don't know about it, when... No wonder Mrs. Patmore missed last night."

"Actually, cataracts can be treated. It only needs an operation. My uncle's personal doctor can solve this problem, but I have to go to London."

"Oh, what shall I say, you are a very kind man, and Mrs Patmore will be delighted to hear that."

Patmore, the cook, was really overjoyed when she received the news. Not only did the earl not dismiss her, but he gave her a vacation and let Anna accompany her to London.Little Daisy said happily: "Great, I heard that he is a doctor who treats Mr. Ambassador, and he can definitely cure you!"

"But who will cook?" Patmore was worried about her kitchen, and suddenly asked her to stop cooking, as if she had lost her limbs, not knowing how to act.

The housekeeper Hughes gave her the answer: "It's Mrs. Lance, she is Mr. Spencer's cook, because Mr. Spencer has just moved here and is not very busy. She can come to help for the time being. She will come in the afternoon. Come here, you hand over the work to her." After Hughes rubbed his head, she had a premonition that another storm was waiting for her.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Lance, a tall, slender woman with short hair, came to the kitchen of Downton Abbey. Everyone was there when she came, and they all saw the appearance of the new cook. For a human being, the width and thickness of her mouth are slightly larger, but she has an elegant temperament, and she looks like a housekeeper instead of a cook.Seeing that everyone was there, she introduced herself: "Hi, I'm Mrs. Lance. I'm in charge of the daily meals at the Old Manor. I'm here to help out temporarily from today. Can we start the handover now? Who is Pa? Mrs. Temore?"

"It's me. Let me tell you that Downton Abbey is no different than Old Manor. There are a lot of things to pay attention to." Mrs. Patmore obviously wanted to give the newcomer a blow, although her eyesight was not working well. , but still can't stand others being ahead of her in the kitchen. Everyone else suppressed their smiles and shrugged slightly. Only the housekeeper, Hughes, sighed helplessly.

The strange thing is that Mrs. Lance still spoke calmly: "Thank you for reminding me, Mrs. Patmore, I hope you can recover soon and continue to contribute more delicious food to the whole manor."

Like punching cotton, Mrs. Patmore held back for a long time and said nothing, and then began to explain various matters. She explained a lot and was very trivial. Mrs. Lance was not bored, but took a notebook As soon as they were written down, Mrs. Lance's seriousness and professionalism won everyone's goodwill, including Mrs. Patmore who was about to bid farewell to the kitchen temporarily. This time she left without being as troublesome as in the TV series.

"Honestly, your handwriting is so beautiful." Mrs. Patmore looked at Mrs. Lance's little book and admired.

Mrs. Lance said: "My daughter works as a secretary in one of Mr. Spencer's companies. When Mr. Spencer sent her and other secretaries to study, he also let me go to study. Support this family, live and learn, including when I went to China to study cooking, since I went to so many places and learned so much knowledge, I no longer only know how to face life with tears.” Obviously. When Mr. Spencer was mentioned, Mrs. Lance really started talking.

"Seems like he's a good guy?" Thomas asked curiously.

"Of course! That goes without saying!"

Thomas smoked thoughtfully, but said nothing.Instead, Gwen sighed: "Your daughter is so lucky."

Daisy couldn't help interjecting again at this time: "Mrs. Lance, how will Mr. Spencer eat after you leave?"

Mrs. Lance smiled for the first time: "My God, you underestimated Mr. Spencer. His cooking skills may be better than mine!"

"You mean him, ah, I mean Mr. Spencer can cook!" Thomas was shocked, and the ash fell on his finger with a shake of his hand, and he shook his hand vigorously when it was hot.He couldn't help being shocked, how can a gentleman cook in the kitchen these days, even Americans have their wives do these things.

"It's not a gentleman's thing to get all smoky," said Mrs. Patmore in disbelief.

"Mr. Spencer said that cooking a meal for a loved one himself in the future is a kind of ordinary happiness. God, he really has a French romance."

At this point in the conversation, Mrs. Lance refused to say any more. She could gossip about harmless gossip to strangers, but not others.

After the handover, everyone was busy saying goodbye to Mrs. Patmore. Only Thomas couldn't calm down for a long time. He was extremely envious and even jealous of the three ladies at the moment, even if he was the second lady who received the least attention. Only then is it possible to be with such an excellent man, instead of being squeezed out everywhere, no one to talk about his thoughts, and can only be reduced to the occasional entertainment object of the upper class like now.
