"The razor in your hand is placed on my head. Don't panic. Please show mercy!"
It turned out that Bao Guowei and Dai Laosan were singing together, leaving the customers who were getting their hair shaved confused.
However, if I don't speak now, I'm afraid I won't even know if my neck is wiped.
"I understand what you mean. However, you can't just dance with my neck on the tip of a knife!"
Upon hearing this, Dai Laosan quickly bowed and apologized.
The barber customer waved his hand and asked Bao Guowei, "You just said you were Bao Guowei? Did you just talk about Mr. Guan?"
Bao Guowei nodded, "Yes, I am Bao Guowei."
"Is this the Bao Guowei who was picked up by Mr. Guan Zhiyi in a big car the day before yesterday?"
"Yes, that's me!"
When the man heard this, he slapped his thigh.
"Oh! Dai Laosan, you really misunderstood him!"
"Dai Laosan, he is Bao Guowei!"
Dai Laosan frowned and said, "Of course I know he is Bao Guowei."
"Bao Guowei! He is now a star-like figure in our Shuixiang Town."
Dai Laosan was stunned and very confused, "What do you mean?"
The customer then told Dai Laosan everything about Bao Guowei's famous events that had been spread in Shuixiang Town these days.
After hearing this, Dai Laosan's expression softened a lot, but he still refused to look good on Bao Guowei.
"You just sit here and wait. I'll shave my head first and then I'll argue with you."
As he spoke, Dai Laosan nuzzled his lips toward the bench behind him.
Bao Guowei nodded, put away the pastries and tea leaves in his hands, sat on the long bench and waited for Dai Laosan.
Even though Dai Laosan is not young, he is even a few years older than Lao Bao. Ordinary people at this age would already enjoy the blessings at home, but Dai Laosan has a very strong body.
Look at the way he shaves his head. His back is straight and his hand holding the razor doesn't shake at all.
Once he gets serious, his eyes are bright and energetic, and he is more energetic than a young man in his late teens.
Bao Guowei watched with great interest as Dai Laosan shaved his head. This technique was something he had never seen before in modern society.
After Dai Laosan finishes shaving his head and washes the foam off the customer's head, it's done.
After sending the customers away, Dai Laosan looked at Bao Guowei.
I saw him bringing a pot of tea and an iron cup full of tea stains, placing it on the bench, and said angrily: "If you want to drink water, pour it yourself!"
Bao Guowei poured the tea and drank it himself. Because it was winter, the tea had already become cold and his teeth hurt from the ice.
And there is no tea smell, only a faint tea fragrance, and I don’t know how many times the tea has been brewed.
But he wasn't annoyed either.
After all, the reason why Dai Laosan is so angry now is because he got into fights and caused trouble in school, failed to learn his skills, and owed a lot of debt. As a result, the Bao family was completely ruined, and Lao Bao was forced to live in a foreign land.
This just shows that Dai Laosan regards his father and Lao Bao as a true friend.
Dai Laosan pondered for a long time. He was not stupid. After feeling sulky, he calmed down now.
"Tell me. What happened?"
Bao Guowei was overjoyed.
Naturally, he wouldn't say anything about Monica, but after all, he was articulate and quick-thinking, and it was easier to tell a lie than to drink water.
Bao Guowei then talked nonsense, talking about how he was appreciated by Guan Zhiyi, how he paid off his debt to Chen San Lezi, and how he sent the tall man to find his father in a foreign country.
He deleted all the things about Monica and added more fuel and jealousy, making it more truthful than the truth.
When Dai Laosan heard this, he was still a little hesitant, but his expression was already very different.
As soon as Bao Guowei saw his micro-expression, he felt 70-80% sure.
He took advantage of the situation and was about to kneel on the ground with a plop. When Dai Laosan saw it, he immediately panicked. Bao Guowei was helped up by him before his knees even hit the ground.
After some pushing and shoving, Bao Guowei's butt returned to the bench.
Dai Laosan sighed deeply.
"It's fate! At first, when I saw that you couldn't study in school, I repeatedly advised your father not to spend money for you to go to school. If you come out and learn a trade, even if you can't stand out in front of others, you won't starve to death. Yes. Now, it seems that you are promising now, but I am short-sighted."
Bao Guowei replied: "I know that Uncle Dai is doing it for my own good."
"I miss you, you still have a filial heart, you have some skills, and you also know how to find someone to look for Lao Bao in other places. Lao Bao has been living a hard life for more than ten years! The world is in chaos, and you... my mother died when I was five years old..."
Bao Guowei listened carefully, and his eyes turned red for a moment.
Touching the scene, he thought about his previous life, when his parents divorced when he was young.
His mother started a new family, and Bao Guowei married his father, but his father never married again.
His father treated him very well when he was a child. Even if he was very busy at work, he would often take time out to spend time with him.
At that time, he loved literature and history, and his father, who was not rich, often squeezed out his pocket money to buy him "idle books".
Later, even though he scored more than 20 points in the college entrance examination mathematics test and was unemployed and lying at home, he was never beaten or scolded even once.
Later, his father died of cancer, which may have been the last straw for Bao Guowei at that time.
Bao Guowei now listened to Dai Laosan's story. Lao Bao was just like his father in his previous life, kind and gentle, and loved his son as much as before.
The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop; the child wants to be nurtured but cannot be kissed.
He thought to himself that in his previous life, he was incompetent and could not fulfill his filial piety in front of his father. In this life, he must stand out in the troubled times of the Republic of China, build a career, and let his father, Lao Bao, also enjoy the blessings!
Bao Guowei nodded heavily.
"In the future, I, Bao Guowei, will definitely do my best to build a career so that my father will no longer suffer this humiliation!" He promised, patting his chest.
When Dai Laosan saw Bao Guowei's expression, he knew that he was not just talking.
Then the anger in Dai Laosan's heart completely dissipated. After all, the prodigal son can never return his money.
"It is normal for young people to make small mistakes because they are young and energetic. After all, how can we be called young if we are not energetic? However, knowing our mistakes can make a lot of improvements."
Afterwards, Dai Laosan and Bao Guowei, an old man and a young man, actually had a good chat!
After all, Bao Guowei's words were not hidden, and he often made Dai Laosan smile from ear to ear. He even stopped doing business and closed down the business.
Gossip two or three.
Bao Guowei suddenly remembered that when he came in just now, there was a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old who ran out. It seemed that he was closely related to Dai Laosan.
He asked: "Uncle Dai, I saw a young man running out of your store just now. You were quite angry. Are you afraid that he is not your child?"
Upon hearing this, Dai Laosan's face became serious, and then he sighed heavily.
"It's not like you don't know that my eldest son went to Jingkou. This is the apprentice I accepted..."
Bao Guowei was curious and continued to ask: "Uncle Dai, just tell me if you have anything to do. Guowei is now successful and can help you!"
It turns out that the man just now was called Li Gouzi. According to the saying in the countryside, a bad name is easy to make a living on, so he still doesn’t have a famous name, and everyone calls him Li Gouzi.
Since he was a child, Li Gouzi's father had died long ago, so his mother had to pull him up every time he pooped and peed. When he grew up, he wanted to make a living.
In this era, no matter what, craftsmen will not starve to death. So Li Gouzi's mother brought him here to ask Dai Laosan to learn the art of barbering and shaving his head.
Dai Laosan saw that he was pitiful and that there was indeed a lack of help around him, so he asked Li Gouzi to follow him.
As of this month, it has been two or three years.
Li Gouzi works calmly. Of course, more importantly, he is smart, not rigid, and can get along well with customers who come for haircuts.
It's just that two days ago, Li Gouzi's mother fell seriously ill and needed money to buy medicine for treatment. But as an apprentice, how could he have any money? Isn't this an attempt to kill him?
Unable to find a solution, Li Gouzi decided to attack his master Dai Laosan.
Just now he was caught by Dai Laosan while stealing money.
Li Gouzi knew he was sorry for his master, but his mother was seriously ill, so he ran away, and was kicked out by Dai Laosan.
While escaping, in a panic, Li Gouzi bumped into Bao Guowei, who was about to visit Dai Laosan.
