Chapter 1019 You Know Who That Man Is
There are many trivial matters at the end of the year. Shangguan Ruoli has not been in the house for several days, and Housekeeper Zuo has something to report to her.
Although Shangguan Ruoli delegated the power of the government to Housekeeper Zuo and Sassoon, they still had to report to Shangguan Ruoli when they made decisions on important matters.
Butler Zuo walked in wearing new clothes issued by the government this year. He lifted his robe and saluted.
Shangguan Ruoli raised his hand to stop him, "Okay, stop kneeling."
After a long time, Housekeeper Zuo also knew that Shangguan Ruoli didn't like others to kneel to her in private, and he didn't insist on it. After doing the usual courtesy, he presented a few orders and said: "Princess, this is the New Year's Eve and the New Year's Eve.
Please take a look at the menu for the banquet."
"Okay!" Shangguan Ruoli took the menu, and her sharp eyes saw that the left butler was wearing a down jacket under the loose sleeves of his robe.
Because of the fear of lint, the fabric of the down jacket is different from ordinary materials, and Shangguan Ruoli can recognize it at a glance.
Previously, I only made down jackets for my personal guards and secret guards. When I came here, Shangguan Ruoli didn't order anyone to make new ones.
The suit worn by Butler Zuo was obviously new, and it looked like he had only worn it for a day or two.
Suddenly, Shangguan Ruoli remembered the fluff on Sassoon's sleeves, smiled slightly, and said, "Butler Zuo's waist seems to be much better."
Sassoon's face instantly turned red as a tomato, he lowered his head, even his neck turned red, and stirred the handkerchief vigorously.
The left butler's earlobe felt hot. He glanced at Sassoon quickly, coughed lightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Princess. It's much better."
Shangguan Ruoli looked at the menu nonchalantly and said casually: "Down clothes are very difficult to sit on. Duck down and goose down need to be washed many times, steam sterilized, and aromatherapy to remove odors."
Shangguan Ruoli almost laughed when he saw Sassoon and Butler Zuo blushing, looking at each other secretly, making eye contact and quickly moving away.
He continued: "And in order to avoid lint, we need to sew two layers of special fabric. This fabric is very dense, and it takes a lot of force to sew, and it takes more time. If it takes two or three days to sew it, I'm afraid I have to work overnight.
.”
That girl Sassoon looked like a giant panda, and it looked like she was working all night to make a down jacket for Butler Zuo.
The left butler's eyes were slightly warm, and he raised his eyes to look at Sassoon. Sassoon glared at him and retracted his injured fingers into his sleeves.
Over time, they figured out each other's tempers. Sassoon looked fierce and fierce at the same time. Butler Zuo saw this and felt warm in his heart.
From the corner of Shangguan Ruoli's eyes, he could see the two people's glances clearly, and he smiled secretly in his heart. It looked like he had to promote the two little maids quickly.
Although Sassoon could stay with him when he married Zuo Guanjia, but if he had one child after another like Rejoice, he wouldn't have time.
After modifying a few dishes, I handed the menu to Butler Zuo, "That's it."
He turned to Sassoon and said, "Preparing the menu is something you, the butler of the house, should do. Now that Butler Zuo has done it for you, you have to thank me."
"Princess..." Sassoon blushed as red as pig liver and hesitated to speak, but still said sadly: "Yes!"
Butler Zuo, on the other hand, was much calmer and took the menu respectfully, "It's all the affairs of this house. It's what I should do. I don't dare to thank you."
Shangguan Ruoli chuckled jokingly, fearing that Sassoon would be embarrassed, so he stopped joking and took care of some trivial matters before continuing to amuse the children.
Bai Qingqing took Ling Yao and Gu Yunlan to learn medical skills and was not in the room
Zhuyue, Rejoice, and Zhangshan Xing'er were all talking and coaxing the children in the room.
When Sassoon saw that there were so many people there, it would be okay if she wasn't there to serve them, so he smiled and said, "I'll go get some refreshments for everyone."
Shangguan Ruoli's eyes flashed slightly and he smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Just ask the second-class maid to get the tea. She went by herself. She must have an excuse to go to Butler Zuo.
Seeing Sassoon go out, Zhuyue chuckled mischievously and said: "Princess, Sassoon's heart is moved."
Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows with a half-smile, "Really? Who is it?"
Zhuyue smiled and said, "I don't know who it is. She has been secretly staying up late these days to make down clothes. When she saw me coming in, she even hid them. But... hehe, I took a peek and it was a man's clothes."
Who is she Zhuyue, a secret guard? How could Sassoon hide his little tricks from her?
Zhang Shan's eyes flashed with gossip, and he smiled and whispered: "Is it navy blue? There are also bamboo leaves embroidered on the cuffs?"
Zhuyue's eyes lit up, "How did you know? Do you know who that man is?"
Zhang Shanxing smiled like a mouse that had stolen lamp oil, "The day before yesterday, I went to my eldest brother, oh, the housekeeper Zuo, to pick up the clothes he wanted to wash. I saw a set of clothes on his bedside. I thought you had changed them.
Yes, when I saw it, it was still new, like a cotton coat, but very light!"
Rejoice said: "It's reasonable for the two of them to form a couple, but Butler Zuo is only old..."
What she meant by "reasonable" was that they had had skin-to-skin contact. She and Sassoon had a good relationship, but she didn't think Butler Zuo, a man in his thirties, could match the 28-year-old Sassoon.
Zhang Shanxing understood what she meant. He was anxious and said hurriedly: "Although my eldest brother is a bit older, he is good-looking, talented and knowledgeable, and has a kind heart. He has never been married, and Sassoon was married to a decent woman.
.”
Rejoice frowned and said, "I'm afraid they will have a lot of resentment because of their age."
This means that they are afraid of a generation gap.
Zhang Shanxing said hurriedly: "My eldest brother is still in his prime, so this age difference is nothing. How many of those men in their fifties and sixties marry a young girl who is thirteen or fourteen years old?"
This era is very unfair to women. It is normal for old husbands and young wives. Not to mention those concubines and aunts. The younger the better.
Even in modern times, it is common for old men to find young wives.
Seeing that Rejoice's expression relaxed, Zhang Shanxing kept up his efforts, "Besides, my parents-in-law have passed away, leaving only two brothers. My husband and I are working in the house again. We don't live with my eldest brother, so we are separated.
When Sassoon gets married, he will be the head of the family by himself, so it will save him a lot of trouble."
She was also worried about her eldest brother's marriage. Although she was happy to help Zuo Ivy, after all, there were differences between men and women, so it was more practical to have a sister-in-law to take care of him.
Rejoice, Zhui Yue was married very quietly, Zhui Feng was an orphan, and Qingfeng only had a younger eunuch brother, Mo Wen. At this time, they felt a headache when they thought about serving their parents-in-law in the morning and dusk, fighting wits and courage with their sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law.
Now that I think about it, it seems good for Sassoon to follow Butler Zuo.
Sassoon had a bad temper and was proud and willful. Judging from these days, Butler Zuo was unconditionally tolerant of Sassoon.
Ahem, if Butler Zuo knew that they thought this way, he would definitely say that that is not tolerance, but that he does not want to be like a child!
