[Comprehensive] The daily life of Miss Downton Fourth
Chapter 60 Misunderstanding
The days when the confession was rejected and the secret love ended were no different from usual.Except for the half hour when she got up early and sat on the bed to meditate, Cynthia behaved no differently from before.
Only Gwen noticed that Miss Cynthia's smile was very weak recently, as if the corners of her raised lips were full of alienation.After watching it for a long time, Gwen felt that she still looked good without smiling.
Sipper's social season begins with meeting the king and queen.She and Cora took a well-decorated carriage, passed through the welcoming crowd, and drove all the way into Buckingham Palace.
Sipper's appearance in London can be said to be very successful, which can be seen from Cora's good mood these two days.
It can be said that the Grantham Mansion was brightly lit these two days, and there was music from night to early morning.Sipper's expensive dress surprised everyone at the first ball held, except that the first dance was danced by Robert and her, and the rest of the time was the invitation dance of young men.
Cynthia sat on the sofa and kept scanning Sipper's feet.It seems that Sipper's body is really good, and he has survived the intense exercise in the past two days.
"Miss Cynthia, may I be honored to have your next dance?"
Cynthia looked up at the person who was bending over and waiting for an answer, Yo, I'm still an acquaintance.
"I am very sorry, Sir Edward. I am resting here because I am a little unwell."
She said so, Sir Edward is not easy to push others.But I stood by for a while and chatted with Cynthia about London for a while.Or talking about his property in London, the smile on Cynthia's face remained unchanged, but she was already very impatient in her heart.
She's really not interested in knowing how much real estate the other party owns in London, okay? If Cynthia is in a good mood, she might compliment her on her good investment vision.If the other party is still alive decades later, the value of these houses will definitely be multiplied many times.
But Cynthia is in a bad mood now, and she doesn't even bother to say the last sentence.The indifferent attitude from the beginning to the end forced Sir Edward to retreat.
Cynthia is not indispensable to Sir Edward, as surprises come and go quickly.The first glimpse of Cynthia on horseback had stuck with Sir Edward, and his experience with the ladies had made him feel that Cynthia would soon be posting like the ladies.
It's a pity that once or twice, Cynthia was too indifferent.Sir Edward is not an affectionate character who hanged on a tree, and when he wrote those affectionate letters to Cynthia, he never broke his "girlfriend" outside.
Cynthia never answered those letters, and Sir Edward became restless after a long time.With his money and status, it's really not worth pursuing him all the time, and there are a lot of women who posted him.
But Sir Edward has also reached his age, and he needs a noble marriage that everyone understands, and he also needs an heir.Cynthia was once again in his eyes. She looks good and has a good family background, so she is very suitable to be a wife, so she got together again today.
After Sir Edward left, Sean came over again with a tray of desserts.Facing him, Cynthia's attitude would not be so bad, at least she accepted the food.
"Why didn't you invite others to dance? There are still many ladies on the stage. Letting a lady have no partner is not what a gentleman should do."
Sean and Joanna were invited by Cynthia, and they were not qualified to attend this kind of banquet according to their identities.But almost all of Cynthia's friends were met at school, and Cora put their names on the guest list.
When Cora saw Sean's name, she asked a few questions specifically.Of course Cynthia understood what Cora meant, but she suspected that the two of them were secretly in a relationship. She explained it immediately, and Cora didn't know if she didn't believe it.
Sean put the plates away and set Cynthia a glass of warm water.
"I asked the waiter for it. It's not good to drink too much when you're in a bad mood."
Such a thoughtful behavior touched Cynthia's heart, her eyes were blurred for a moment, and her tears were suppressed again.The occasion was wrong, and she couldn't ruin Sipper's first society party.
If someone saw Cynthia crying, I don't know what kind of rumors would spread.
It was the first time for Sean to experience this kind of scene. Those people who were dancing on the dance floor, and those who were holding wine glasses and chatting next to each other in twos and threes seemed to be different from him.Joanna took him to a dance at the beginning, but was invited away by others, and never remembered that there was a cousin on the stage.
His strange face aroused the interest of some ladies.After a few conversations, the socially trained ladies understood everything.In such an occasion where throwing a ball of paper casually could hit a baron, Sean was naturally treated coldly.
Cynthia's slightly sluggish brain in the past two days quickly figured this out, and her hands on the warm water gradually tightened.
"I'm sorry, I, I should have thought you wouldn't fit in here."
Sean shook his head immediately and looked at Cynthia tenderly.
"It's ok, I'm glad I got to know your family. They all seem so friendly."
Cynthia glanced at the family members who were scattered in various parts of the banquet hall, thinking that you have never seen their quarrel before.
Sean didn't sit here for too long, after all, it would attract attention after a long time.After seeing him leave, Cora said a polite word to the people next to him, hoping they would have a good time, and came towards Cynthia.
Cora, who had been busy with this banquet for several days, had the opportunity to sit down and have a good rest. Her tense body was relaxed, but her heart was not.
"After Sipper passes by, it will be you. Next year, there will be more people attending your social dance."
It's no wonder that Cora has this confidence, and today is Sipper's home court.Naturally, Mary and Cynthia would not steal her limelight, and they avoided the sharpness in their jewelry.
Mary because of her social life for several years and recent rumors about her notoriety.Today, there are obviously fewer men around her, but Cynthia, who is about to grow up, is different.
With Sipper on the court, she is the most popular.After she danced with Robert, the men who came to invite Cynthia were like leeks, one after another.
But Cora also saw that Cynthia rejected many people, which was not common.I didn't look at the ladies next to me dancing non-stop, and kept chatting with other people during breaks.Even if you really don't like the other party, you won't be indifferent to the other party.
"I saw Sir Edward coming over just now. I remember he sent a lot of letters to Downton, but you didn't reply much. I don't think I need to teach you how to write letters to men again, Cynthia?"
Cora was still so gentle when she said the slightly reproachful words, but there was a little emotion in her eyes.The diamonds on her head sparkled in the light, and only married ladies were allowed to wear them at dinner parties.
The more important the occasion, the more expensive the tiara worn by the lady.Cora's family Levinson has no shortage of money to buy jewelry, but what can be bought with money is somewhat lost.
The diamond crown on her head was given by Mrs. Grantham when she got married, and it is said that it has been passed down for several generations.The tiara is inlaid with more than 800 diamonds, with a total weight of 48 carats. I don't know which generation of Earl Grantham bought it to please his wife.
"I don't want to hear Sir Edward suggest how much land he has, or how many girlfriends he has in London. Mother, I don't want to gamble on the possibility of them falling in love with me when they marry."
Cynthia's passive attitude made Cora vigilant, and she glanced at Cynthia suspiciously.
"Rosemond wrote to me earlier that you were walking with a young man who didn't look like a gentleman..."
Cynthia immediately understood Cora's unfinished words, and she clutched her forehead with a headache.
"That's my friend. He already has a wife and is living happily in America."
Hearing this, Cora was relieved again. The other party has a wife and is still so far away, so it seems that Cynthia has no private relationship with people whose identities do not match.
Then why did she lack interest in those men? If Sir Edward's private life is a bit messy, then the rest is still clean.
The more she thought about it, the more she was wrong. Could it be that her little daughter is not interested in men?Just thinking about this possibility made Cora feel bad.
She quickly thought about it carefully, and it seemed that Cynthia had always insisted that women were no worse than men. Could this be some kind of sign?
If Cynthia has the ability to read minds, maybe Cora's thinking will really spread if she complains.No matter how you think about those remarks, she is a feminist. How can you think she is a lesbian based on this?
It's a pity that she didn't. As for the reason why she was indifferent to those men these days, it was impossible for Cynthia to take the initiative to tell Cora that it was because of her crush failure.
Cora's misunderstanding with Cynthia was formally settled, not to mention, and because Robert was a staid patriarch, Cora would not even mention Cynthia's question.
Of course, that all happened later, and Cynthia still doesn't know anything about it.
After Cora left in a daze, Matthew, the new heir of the Crowley family, walked to Cynthia with a glass of wine.
"Why do you seem to be less used to this kind of scene than I am?"
This is obviously a self-deprecating sentence. The British are good at self-deprecating, and they also show an open-minded attitude, which means that they don't care about exposing their shortcomings.
Cynthia looked at this man who didn't know if he had any hope of becoming her brother-in-law, and wanted to reply to him that it was more difficult to adapt to your changing status than to adapt to this occasion, okay?
"What about you? There are too many people who invited Mary, so you didn't get the number?"
Matthew took a sip of champagne. To be honest, Mary's indifferent attitude made him suffer a lot.Coupled with the aggressive attitude of the old lady, Matthew always felt that he was still outside the Crowley family.
"Do you know? I always thought your voice was familiar before, but I couldn't remember where I heard it. Until recently, the news was full of publicity about Sherlock Holmes who came back from the dead, and I suddenly remembered that we met for the first time."
Cynthia's eyes froze, not knowing why Matthew was bringing this up now.
"Your memory is quite good, you can still remember things so long ago."
Matthew shrugged, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have memorized such a thick code, and I was also impressed by your sermon the second time I met you."
That's still hers, isn't it?
"If you don't say that, will I teach you a lesson? I don't have the hobby of being a teacher."
Seeing the sign that Cynthia was about to explode, Matthew hurriedly put out the fire, "It's my fault, haven't I already tasted the bitter fruit?"
It is self-evident what a bitter fruit is, and Cynthia also understands that it is not easy to be a spare tire.Looking at Mary who was looking at her side frequently, Cynthia thought maybe she was just not sure of her mind.
The two of them need nothing more than time or unexpected events to push, otherwise Mary may hesitate for the last few years.
Cynthia tapped the wine glass with her index finger, and said suddenly: "I have a way to let you know what she wants, but my appearance fee is quite expensive."
Matthew was not stupid, and quickly figured out Cynthia's intentions.He turned his head to look at Cynthia in surprise, "Mary will see through, after all, we don't spend much time together, there is no reason to explain my sudden 'transferring love'."
For good reason, Cynthia's quarrel with Mary and Edith still had an effect.She didn't know if Mary had given up revenge on Edith, but Cynthia could deliberately 'seduce' Matthew with the excuse that Mary didn't know what to do.
The next thing will be a matter of course. As long as Matthew doesn't feel embarrassed when they meet in the future, Cynthia doesn't mind Mary giving her a bad impression.
"So, you choose."
The author has something to say: The little angel Sean got trapped deeper and deeper with reluctance, so he pulled the big cousin out for a while.
Don't worry, the eldest cousin still belongs to Mary, and it is impossible to like Cynthia. Cynthia and Mary are two completely different types.
I saw your comments asking me to change the male lead, hmph, stupid fish don’t know about you yet, wait until I really announce the change to Sean.Aren’t you still calling Sherlock so handsome and so sexy, how can he not be the hero, the stupid author deceives our feelings. .
Tsk tsk tsk, fish can see through
