Downton Abbey for your happiness
Chapter 38 Downton's Wedding
Long story short, a few days before the rehearsal, John's two uncles, cousins, and cousin Vader finally arrived at the Autobots. The relationship between the Spencer family and the Winston family is still good. One rich , A powerful person, although the married person is gone, but it does not affect their friendship.Relatives came from afar, and of course Downton wanted to show his hospitality as a landlord. Besides, John was no longer in the Old Manor, so Downton certainly wanted to hold a banquet so as not to neglect the guests.
Now Mrs. Patmore is busy like a spinning top again. Thomas is not polite. He sits at the table and drinks a cup of coffee while everyone is busy. Now Mr. Spencer's servant, does not obey her orders.Taking advantage of the rest space, the new servants were very interested in inquiring about the identity of tonight's guests.Alfred asked curiously: "I heard that two duchesses will come tonight? Aren't Mr. Spencer and Mr. Winston Americans?"
"Oh, my God, what a child you are! Isn't Mrs. American too?" exclaimed Mrs. Patmore.
Thomas felt a sense of superiority rising in his heart, so he drank coffee and explained: "The Duke of Nemours is the uncle of Mr. Winston, and Miss Charlotte is the only daughter of the Duke of Nemours. The other is the Duke of Wilson of Scotland. , and his wife is Mr. Spencer's cousin."
"I haven't heard Mr. Spencer mention it before." Anna also joined the conversation.
"That's because Mr. Spencer has an excellent quality of humility." Thomas put a tall hat on John without hesitation, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth after speaking.
"Are Mr. Lister Spencer and Mr. Maxwell Spencer uncles of Mr. Spencer? Are they all as rich as Mr. Spencer?" I saw their names when I saw the name tags."
"This is not a topic that a gentleman should talk about!" Carson just passed by and severely criticized James, and praised Alfred by the way, "Learn from Alfred, prudence and restraint are the necessary qualities to be a gentleman. "
James, who was criticized, pouted and lowered his head. After Carson left, Thomas said triumphantly, "Mr. Spencer would never criticize me like that."
The old people in Downton knew Thomas' personality and didn't take it seriously, but the newcomers were indeed more interested. John had been living in Downton for the past few days, but the servants had no contact with anyone except Thomas. After all, the wedding was busy. The front foot does not touch the back foot.At this moment, a pleasant voice sounded from the corner of the corridor outside the kitchen: "Can I treat you as if you are complimenting me behind my back?"
Sure enough, it crashed and stood up again. "Can I have a cup of coffee, too?" John told Mrs. Patmore to sit down, and waved his hands to let everyone sit down. Then he turned his head and looked at James and said, "My Uncle Lister is a Automakers, but also some oil on the farm, and Uncle Maxwell is the president of Dukeville University. If that's what you want to ask."
James was embarrassed, a little disappointed that he hadn't made a good impression on Mr. Spencer.
"Oh, is it the famous Dukeville University?" Mrs. Hughes, who has a lot of knowledge, asked curiously while trying to relieve herself.
"Yes, Uncle Maxwell was the Undersecretary of Education when my late father was still alive, and then became the President of Dukeville University after his retirement. I think Uncle Maxwell would like it here. Unlike me, he is a Very traditional people, of course I like this place very much, Downton is almost catching up with my second home.”
"Glad to hear that, and I'm sure Carson would be, too," said Mrs. Hughes, smiling.
"Farewell, Carson will definitely complain in my heart that I shouldn't go downstairs." John joked.
"Then why did you come here, Mr. Spencer?" asked Anna.
"It's like this, I'm here to find Thomas, Charlotte is so naughty, I was writing a telegram to my uncle, she accidentally knocked over the ink bottle, so my cuff is like this..." John said at this time Reluctantly stretched out his arm, he had been covering it just now, no wonder everyone didn't pay attention, "I want to see if there is any way to save my clothes."
"Oh, my God..." Thomas saw that the other party's cuffs were smeared with a lot of ink, and there was nothing to be seen on the black jacket, but the white shirt was very conspicuous.
John thought it was troublesome, so he said, "If it's not easy to get it done, it's fine. Fortunately, it's not a wedding dress. Anyway, I still have a lot of clothes that I haven't worn."
"I don't think it's hard, Mr. Spencer. A little lye will do."
Looking at Jimmy who suddenly interrupted, John thought for a few seconds before changing his mind: "Can you fix it? You know I have something else to do with Thomas...can I ask you?"
So James happily agreed.Thomas followed John up the stairs with a sullen face all the way, and John pretended not to notice and walked on by himself.Finally, after entering the bedroom, Thomas couldn't help but said: "That James always asks about you, John, he must have no good intentions!"
"Yo, are you jealous?" John sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out his hands to Thomas, and when the other came over, he grabbed those hands and turned over to his face and said, "Do you want to know why I let him do it? "
"No." Thomas turned his face away.
John kissed the other side's face and said: "I still feel sorry for you, the alkaline solution hurts my hands, I would rather not have that dress."
"Really?" Thomas asked, but he already believed it in his heart.
"It's more real than real gold!" John said firmly, "I don't know what the manservant's idea is, but it's definitely not what you have in mind. He should simply be envious of your work."
"how do you know?"
John was at a loss for words for a while, he couldn’t say that he knew from the original plot that Jimmy was a straight man, he had an idea, and he changed his words: “I heard from Mary that he is very popular among the maids, and he is also happy to be able to handle things with ease. .”
"All right……"
"Don't be angry anymore? Let me taste it to see if there is any sour taste..." John lowered his head and kissed Thomas, who had become happy.
Looking at the church, poor Travis seemed to have to deal with wedding guests from all over the world. The earl wanted to invite the cardinal to preside over the wedding, but Edith didn't want to pursue that kind of ostentation, let alone at the time Travis baptized her, wouldn't it be better to preside over her wedding?But Mrs. Winston was not very satisfied. She had picked Travis's questions on various issues before. Fortunately, it was not a matter of religious principles, and Travis had no idea.Seeing the second lady Edith walk over with the earl's arm, John was full of emotions. Who would have thought that the second lady who was born alone could get married so smoothly?Moreover, John thought that the one he married was second only to Mary among the three sisters, and his eldest cousin was too perfect, but he believed that Joyce would not be much worse than Matthew.
Now Mrs. Patmore is busy like a spinning top again. Thomas is not polite. He sits at the table and drinks a cup of coffee while everyone is busy. Now Mr. Spencer's servant, does not obey her orders.Taking advantage of the rest space, the new servants were very interested in inquiring about the identity of tonight's guests.Alfred asked curiously: "I heard that two duchesses will come tonight?
