London's social season is coming to an end, and the sunny days are about to bid farewell to London.

Sippel can definitely be called the most eye-catching socialite of this social season. She may not be the most beautiful one, but she is lively and cheerful, and she is not restrained by those red tapes.

It can be said that she brought a spring breeze to the quiet social ball, refreshing.There were not a few men who remembered her through a fleeting aspect at the ball, as can be seen from Sipper's increasing number of letters.

"Another letter, from Mr. Welch. Let's see the addressee, our charming Miss Sippel."

Cynthia shook the letter she had brought in for Sipper, and she didn't know how many suitors this Mr. Welch was.

Sipper quickly snatched the letter from Cynthia, "Hey, Cynthia. You will have this day too, it's better not to laugh at your sister before that."

She focuses on the word sister, reminding Cynthia not to keep forgetting that she is the youngest.

Cynthia sat at the dining table with her chin resting on the backs of her joined hands.She admits that sometimes she really sees Sippel as a younger sister.

There is a year difference between them, and they were almost never separated in childhood, even the nanny is the same.Cynthia was already thinking of an adult when Sipper was bubbling and being hugged by the nanny.

The appearance of the other party spitting milk foam has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, how can Cynthia treat her as a sister?What's more, Sipper doesn't have Mary's boldness, nor does Edith's scheming.

Compared to them, Sippel is really younger.Now that Cynthia saw her communicating with other men, she had the idea that she was in puppy love.

This time Cynthia came back to discuss school matters in Sipper, who hoped to stay in London to go to school.Cynthia naturally had to take care of her a little, and Sipper insisted that they were taking care of each other.

With Cynthia in front, the old lady accepted Sipper's going to college well.

It was just unavoidable to make a joke at dinner: "It seems that Cynthia has made a good start, and I am afraid that even Edith will start to find a job to do it. Among the four sisters, only Mary will not be affected. She is the one who insists on herself. people, right?"

This was alluding to her insistence on not accepting Matthew, Mary raised her eyebrows and did not answer.

It was Edith who put down her knife and fork and continued, "I did find a job. I never told you that I submitted an article to a newspaper out of interest. After getting in touch, they hoped that I could write for a long time."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady's expression could be described as dumbfounded, God knows she just said something casually.

After Edith finished speaking, she and Cynthia briefly looked at each other, and Cynthia gave her an encouraging smile.Cynthia was very happy about Edith's change.

It's good to have something to divert her attention, one can't be immersed in one emotion all the time.Edith always felt that she was inferior to Mary, and Cynthia hoped that this job would bring her a different feeling, maybe she would become the next big writer in the future.

Cynthia thought that Edith might not really like the job of writing a column, but the sense of accomplishment that this job brought her.The important thing is that she also has something recognized by others.

Edith and Mary also reconciled, both on paper and enforced by Cora.After all, they returned to their original state. Mary would not be sarcastic to Edith, and Edith's mentality was much calmer.

This trip back to Grantham's old house was much more comfortable than the last time, and Cynthia could even see Thomas as if nothing had happened.

It can be said that the source of Mary's incident was in Thomas and O'Brien, but Cynthia failed to find out who it was.It's enough that neither of them is a simple person, and Daisy in the kitchen was completely pulled in by them.

She might have seen something that night and was scared off by O'Brien and said it all.Edith and Daisy were completely used by the two of them. Cynthia would of course be upset when she first found out about this, and it's not that she didn't think about firing them both.

It's just that Cora's apparently calm attitude let Cynthia know that she didn't want to make a big deal, and Robert and the old lady knew nothing about it.If the manor fired two people at once, Robert would definitely ask the question, and it would not be worth the loss if he found out.

In addition, Thomas had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and he assured them that he would never play such tricks again in Downton.

Cynthia also knew that the promises made by these people were useless, but Cora considered expelling them, and they would be more credible if they said a few more words as servants who left Downton Abbey in the future.

You have to take your time to deal with these matters. Coraco, who has been the Countess for more than ten years, has more experience than Cynthia.

This afternoon, Sipper finally finished her stack of letters, and was going to visit the university campus with Cynthia.

She went out to talk about the destination with the driver, the new driver Tom, an Irishman and a political communist.When Sipper participated in the women's rights movement, he had a few words with Tom, and he appreciated Sipper's participation in the movement.

When Cynthia went out, she heard Tom talking to Sipper about his country and his ambitions.

"There are few people around me who are as passionate about politics as you are, so are you going back to Ireland in the future to achieve your goals?"

Cynthia's words did not mean to look down on the other party at all. She came from an era of information explosion.There are rumors that security guards have been admitted to prestigious schools through their own efforts, and Cynthia will not look down on any profession.

I'm afraid Tom didn't think so. He put away his smiling face when facing Sipper, and asked Cynthia seriously and sharply: "Shouldn't a driver be passionate about politics? Are we willing to be ruled by others?"

Sipper quickly smoothed things over, "Cynthia didn't mean that, and she has always supported the feminist movement."

"Tom? Every job is equal, and what matters is not what other people think, but your own. Do you think there is any difference between a driver and a bank clerk?"

Tom's mood eased, but his words remained stiff.

"Maybe there is no difference in other occupations, but you are different from others, aren't you? You don't need to work to have your current life."

Co-authoring blamed their ancestors, and Cynthia glanced at Tom rather speechlessly.Is this person an angry youth?Or hate the rich?Could it be that they have both? Don't they all hate them so much and still come to apply for a driver?

It was just an accident to get to know the new side of the driver. Today's main itinerary is still to visit the school.Cynthia and Hippel's first destination was Somerville College, Oxford, on Woodstock Road, one of the first women's colleges established at the University of Oxford.At present, the number of students is quite large, and many majors have been opened.

As soon as Sipper and Cynthia entered the school gate, they were stopped by a student waiting at the gate. The girl with deep eyebrows and a warm smile should be a student of this school.

"Hello, are you going to visit the campus? I can introduce you to some places on the campus that are forbidden to enter. It would be better to have a guide."

Got it, I'm afraid this is to prevent them from wandering into closed areas.Cynthia and Sipper accepted this well, and the girl in front of them was quite kind to them and explained it in detail.

Every time Sippel paused somewhere, the other party would stop for a while and talk about some interesting things that happened here.Cynthia knew from Sipper's expression that she was more inclined to this school now.

"Then do you have a preferred major? Our literature major still has many very famous teachers, or our chemistry major. Our experimental equipment is newly added this year."

Cynthia also looked at Sipper. The tutors only taught them French and curtsy, and they never touched science such as chemistry.But as long as Sipper wants to learn, it doesn't matter if she starts from scratch, they still have time.

It seems that the girl in front of me knows chemistry very well, maybe she is a chemistry major.What is surprising is that her introduction of the future development direction is almost the same as what Cynthia learned in later generations.

Finally, when they were about to leave, Cynthia had a chance to ask: "I don't know your name yet, thank you for your detailed introduction today, I believe Sipper is full of affection for this school now. Maybe you will soon become alumni."

The corner of the girl's mouth curled up slightly, "Olos. Olos Holmes."

When this name was mentioned, Oluos put away all her disguises, and the eyes that were full of kindness and enthusiasm just now were only cold and ruthless.It seemed that Cynthia and Sipper in front of her were no different from the grass on the side of the road.

Cynthia froze for a moment when she heard the surname Holmes, wondering if it was an illusion brought about by the name.She actually felt that Olos' eyebrows and eyes were a bit like Sherlock's, but the surname Holmes was not exclusive to Sherlock's family.

The most important thing is that Cynthia has never heard of Sherlock and Mycroft having a younger sister, not only in later masterpieces, but also Sherlock and Watson have never mentioned it.

"What a coincidence, I have a friend with the same surname as you."

Oulos didn't want to use Cynthia as a pawn at this time, it was too early.Moriarty acted too early and let Sherlock grab the braid, Olos would not make that mistake.

She put on her smile again, "Really? Maybe I have some blood relationship with him."

Cynthia fiddled with her hair. She seemed to only mention one friend, and didn't say whether he was a man or a woman.

How did Olos know?

"Isn't there a famous detective in London whose surname is Sherlock Holmes? The friend you're talking about must be him."

Olos's words reassured Cynthia that Shylock's name had been known by everyone in recent years.It is understandable that people think of Holmes when it comes to Holmes.
