Downton Abbey for your happiness
Chapter 36 Edith's Engagement
I thought it was just a quarrel between rivals in love, but it was not the case. When John and the others were talking, Thomas came over and whispered something to him.Charlotte first couldn't help but asked curiously: "Cousin, what's the matter?"
"Thomas found a strange thing. Mr. Gray seems to have just added some pills to a wine glass while everyone was not paying attention."
"Ah? Why? Is he sick?" Charlotte asked puzzled.
John got used to it, but the old lady couldn't help complaining, "I really envy you for always living in fairy tales."
Charlotte ignored this sentence and looked at his cousin, John had to say: "I think Mr. Gray must still have bad intentions for Tom, maybe he wants to make him make a fool of himself."
"Ah! I see, there is something wrong with that glass of wine!" Charlotte suddenly realized.
"Honey, it's a good thing you didn't become a detective, otherwise you would have died twice." The old lady couldn't help but patted Charlotte's hand and said.
"Grandmother!" Mary hinted emphatically.
So the old lady immediately changed her words: "Of course...it's not completely worthless, but I'm still discovering."
John couldn't help laughing even more when he heard this, and he turned around and smiled silently at Thomas.At this time, Charlotte and the angry Siebel got up and walked towards Larry Gray. Siebel wanted to argue with the other party, but Charlotte was not so polite. She hated these secret tricks when she usually read novels She deliberately walked up to Larry, covered it with a wide skirt, and stretched out her feet quickly. Mr. Gray fell heavily on the ground, and the fragments of the two wine glasses in his hand splashed on the ground.
But before Mr. Gray yelled anything, Charlotte squatted down and covered her feet and cried out the pain. People who didn't know the truth thought that Mr. Gray accidentally stepped on Miss Charlotte, even Mr. Gray himself He thinks so, because he has been guilty of focusing on the people around him and Branson just now.
Mr. Gray stained his clothes and scratched a few small cuts on his hands, but before he left, he apologized to Charlotte, and Charlotte pretended to be innocent with tears rolling in her eyes. She practiced this skill since she was a child. It can be said that he was very proficient, and Mr. Gray couldn't stand it anymore, so he left with guilt.As soon as the other party left, Charlotte struggled and was pulled up by Matthew. Matthew asked with kindness and concern without knowing it: "Is your foot okay? Are you injured? It seems that Mr. Gray is not light. "
Charlotte stuck out her tongue and whispered, "How could I be so stupid! I tripped him."
Matthew shook his head helplessly. He has experienced the methods of this young lady for a while. If she likes you and is willing to be friends with you, then congratulations, you will get all kinds of irrational protection from her.If she doesn't like you, you have to be careful in all areas of your life.
"So Tom is your friend?" asked Matthew.
"You can't say that..."
"Then why are you working so hard to help him?" Matthew asked puzzled.
"Don't you think that a little driver and the earl's daughter went through many difficulties after eloping, and finally lived happily and sweetly together? God, what a romantic story! I have never seen such a happy ending in reality!" Charlotte said with starry eyes.
Matthew was completely defeated, and he said, "You should really be a fairy tale writer, Charlotte."
"Matthew, do you think it's true? This idea seems good! I'm going to write the story of Sieber as the first one!" Charlotte continued talking to herself unconsciously, and Matthew quietly left helplessly.
The episode of the dinner party could not affect the quality of the whole party, nor could it change Joyce's heart to propose marriage.Seeing Joyce and Edith walking outside the door, John said to Thomas, "Now my aunt can't take care of my business for the time being. If they have a baby in the future, my aunt will be even less free."
"Why? I don't think Mrs. Winston has shown any particular concern for her grandson and granddaughter."
"After all, the eldest cousin is far away in the United States. My aunt has more than enough energy to take care of it, but the second cousin is right in front of me. With my aunt's personality, I won't ignore it. Then we will be relaxed?" John finished. Squeezing Thomas' hand, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Unknowingly, another month passed, and many major events happened in Downton in this month.First, Joyce successfully proposed and agreed to invest in the estate. However, after the war, he also expanded the company and invested in the rubber manufacturing business of his aunt's relatives in Latin America. Saving Downton was not a small sum. He could only First take out half of the money, and John wanted to help with the remaining amount, but Joyce refused, saying that after the new factory and investment income, there will be liquidity.Before Joyce returned to France, he and Edith were formally engaged, and the two agreed to get married in July after returning from France to transfer funds.
John and the earl's family became serious relatives, and the relationship between the two people who had been friends for a long time was even better. The earl often invited John to be a guest. Matthew was very happy about this situation. Both of them were his friends, and it was good to get along well. .
Thomas, suddenly popular among the servants, told John that many people had come to him asking about Joyce.
"James also asked about you." After finishing Joyce's topic, Thomas suddenly added this sentence, which had nothing to do with the previous article and was a bit abrupt.But John immediately knew what was going on with the other party, and felt funny in his heart. It turned out that Thomas' rotten peach blossoms actually paid attention to him...but John was very happy. After knowing each other for so long, Thomas finally regarded him as a lover, although it was impossible. It was accomplished overnight, but some small habits are also subtly changing, such as the occasional veiled jealousy and silent anger.
"Oh? What did he ask me?" John pretended to be confused with understanding.
"Ask what kind of person you are, and how I got your favor." Thomas' tone was very flat, and his eyes deliberately did not touch John. There is no guarantee of a "happy" life.
"Then you didn't tell him that you don't need to do anything, just standing there is enough to attract my full attention?" John stood up from the armchair, crossed the round table, half-bent down and hugged him from behind. Hold Thomas, whisper next to the ear of the other party, and deliberately sprinkle heat on Thomas's neck that is exposed outside the shirt.
Only then did Thomas happily turn his head to kiss John. He was not angry, but he felt a little bit of a sense of crisis. After all, James was so handsome, he had to be optimistic about his own man.Ask what a couple could want after an evening of being alone in a room and kissing, so John gave Thomas another day off the next day.
Lying on the bed, although my waist is sore and my back hurts, I can't restrain my pride and joy when I think of John saying that he is irreplaceable and irreplaceable last night.
"Thomas found a strange thing. Mr. Gray seems to have just added some pills to a wine glass while everyone was not paying attention."
"Ah? Why? Is he sick?" Charlotte asked puzzled.
John got used to it, but the old lady couldn't help complaining, "I really envy you for always living in fairy tales."
