Later, Zuo Ivy had a deep love for the girl from the county magistrate's family, and he only expected to be the top student in high school and marry the girl in a glorious manner.

The day before she went to Beijing to take the exam, the young lady asked Zuo Ivy to meet her, saying she wanted to cheer her on.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Ivy drank the wine offered by the young lady and fainted. When he woke up again, he found himself and the young lady lying naked on the bed.

The young lady's nurse rushed in with the magistrate's family and blocked them on the bed.

"Before my eldest brother could figure out what was going on, the lady cried and admitted that she had been having an affair with my eldest brother for a long time and that she was three months pregnant! God knows, my eldest brother is well-educated and reasonable, and he didn't treat that lady in the slightest.

Moment! Woohoo..." Zhang Shanxing said, crying.

Zuo Ivy and the county magistrate are already engaged. Correspondence and private meetings in the presence of servants are not considered breaking the rules.

Sassoon was filled with indignation when he heard this, and he frowned and asked, "What happened next?"

Zhang Shanxing wiped away her tears and said, "Of course the eldest brother will not take the blame for others, but the young lady insisted that the child is his.

The eldest brother wanted to break off the engagement in anger, but was beaten by the county magistrate. Four of his ribs were broken, and he lay in bed for two months, which also delayed his scientific examination.

It was difficult to provide for a scholar, so my father-in-law sold the land in the family in order to treat my eldest brother's injury. My mother-in-law couldn't bear to think about it. She couldn't afford it when she fell ill, and she left before my eldest brother recovered."

Sassoon said angrily: "You can take the exam again in the next subject! Once you become an official, you can take revenge!"

Zhang Shanxing gritted his teeth and said: "How could the county magistrate allow such a thing to happen? If the eldest brother does not marry that young lady, he will not let the eldest brother's moral integrity pass!"

Students who take part in the scientific examination must go through a disciplinary assessment, and the way of assessment is naturally that the student's local parents, officials, district chiefs, village chiefs, etc. write letters of recommendation.

But if the county magistrate says something, Zuo Ivy's moral integrity will not pass the test.

There is no need for Zhang Shanxing to tell the following things, Sassoon also knows that Zuo Ivy would rather give up the scientific examination than pick up a ready-made cuckold to wear on his head.

Sassoon got up to gossip and asked: "Whose child does the young lady have? If someone forces her, Butler Zuo has a deep love for her, so he might consider taking advantage of her."

Zhang Shanxing snorted coldly, "That bitch knew that the eldest brother would rather not take the scientific examination than marry her, but she cried and begged the eldest brother several times, and she admitted that the child in her belly was her cousin's. That idiot found out

She made her cousin pregnant and scared her away. My eldest brother went to Beijing to take the scientific examination, which will only take three months anyway. That bitch was afraid that she would be drowned because of her tummy, so she wanted to force her to marry her before she left."

Sassoon raised his eyebrows and said with a bit of schadenfreude: "So, Butler Zuo was heartbroken by the one he loved and was so disheartened that he never wanted to get married again?"

Zhang Shanxing sighed: "That's not the case. The eldest brother didn't marry that bitch. The bitch beat the child and married the adulterer. But she didn't let the eldest brother get married. As soon as she heard that the eldest brother was engaged, she sent someone

He made trouble and spread rumors to slander the eldest brother. Not only was the eldest brother unable to say goodbye, but he was also forced to go away to make a living. As time went by, the marriage was delayed."

Sassoon curled his lips and tutted: "He deserves it. Who made him blind?"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

No wonder Housekeeper Zuo was so weak. He was so seriously injured and didn't take good care of himself because his family was poor.

Zhang Shanxing said behind her: "Miss Sassoon, my eldest brother is a good man. You will not regret marrying him!"

Sassoon turned around and said calmly: "Didn't you say that he doesn't want to get married?"

Zhang Shanxing said: "He is afraid. Once bitten by a snake, he will be afraid of the well rope for ten years. Girl, you are lively and refreshing, you will definitely make him relax."

"If he doesn't want to marry, who would rush to marry him?" Sassoon said such lukewarm words and turned around to leave.

But there was something strange in my heart, and I felt that my attitude towards Butler Zuo seemed too bad.

After all, they didn't provoke her into anything, and the physical contact was all to save her.

People sympathize with the weak, and so does Sassoon, not to mention that she also came from a poor family and was sold because her family was poor.

Sassoon returned to the room, placed the snacks on the table, and stood there in a daze.

Shangguan Ruoli was still waiting for her to refill her tea. Seeing that she was a little distracted, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "I went out for a while and someone took away my soul?"

"Ah?" Sassoon didn't hear clearly what Shangguan Ruoli said and looked confused, "What does the princess need?"

Shangguan Ruoli said with a half-smile, "Why did you lose your soul?"

Sassoon's face turned red, "No way, Princess, please stop making fun of your slaves."

Shangguan Ruoli didn't dig into the details and said, "Go to the butler and bring the bamboo basket, the stone and the account books for making the insulated truck and the insulated cabin. I want to calculate the total cost."

Sassoon was stunned for a moment, subconsciously not wanting to go, but the account book matter was very important and he had to go in person.

Butler Zuo had just finished replying to Dongming Ziyu and was distributing fruit saplings to the stewards on each hill. When he saw Sassoon walking towards him, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

The masters were not around these days, and although Sassoon always spoke harshly to him, the two of them cooperated quite tacitly and handled all the big and small things in the house properly.

Housekeeper Zuo only regarded Sassoon as a willful and arrogant naughty child. After all, he was fifteen or six years older than her and did not know her at all.

However, no one likes to talk to someone who is angry with them.

"Butler Zuo, the princess asked me to come to you and ask for some account books." Sassoon tried his best to be as rude and arrogant as before.

However, his tone was still much softer, and his eyes were a little complicated.

This made Butler Zuo feel a little awkward, "Okay, girl, come with me."

After saying that, he turned around and walked to the room where he was working.

Sassoon walked behind, looking at his thin but straight back, he felt a strange emotion in his heart and couldn't help but lose his mind.

Butler Zuo didn't even notice when he came to the door and paused, and suddenly bumped into his back.

"Yeah!" Sassoon touched his sore nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

Butler Zuo turned around in surprise, "What's going on?"

According to the usual practice, Sassoon should disturb three points unreasonably and take advantage of him even though it was her fault.

Unexpectedly, Sassoon glared at him, blushed, and said angrily: "It's okay, open the door quickly!"

The red face and pouting look is a bit coquettish.

The left butler's lips twitched, feeling that there was something wrong with Sassoon today, so he turned around and pushed the door open and entered the room.

Mo Wen saw this scene not far away and told Dongming Ziyu about it.

It was rare that Dongming Ziyu also gossiped for a while. When he returned to the backyard, he told Shangguan Ruoli about the matter. After speaking, he joked: "It seems that your housekeeper is going to marry the king's housekeeper. It's a natural match."

right."

Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "Don't think that I will take the initiative to give Sassoon to Housekeeper Zuo. All the maids under me choose their own husbands."

Dongming Ziyu smiled and said: "I see, there is a way."

"If there is a way, I will help you." Shangguan Ruoli thought of the girl and changed the subject, "Why didn't Mrs. Zhou and the girl send them away? Do you have other plans?"
