"Oops! Guowei is thirsty. I'll go to the town to buy some tea. Let me go."
When Lao Bao wanted to leave, he was held down by Ma Li, Ma Fu, and Ma Qian, refusing to let him go.
"Young Master Bao, right? If you want to drink tea, you, Master Bao, have to buy it?"
Being sandwiched among a group of talkative women, Lao Bao was obviously a little panicked. He waved his hands hurriedly and said: "No, he didn't ask me to come. I went there on my own. I'm used to being busy. It's fine when I'm free. He wants to have tea, so I’ll buy it for him!”
"Haha, then why are you in a hurry? You are not allowed to leave. Tell us quickly!"
"Yes, yes! You are not allowed to leave. If you want tea, why don't you ask your two daughters-in-law to buy it?"
Lao Bao's puppet-like head shook even more, "Don't dare to talk nonsense! She is my daughter-in-law! My Guowei will be angry if he hears this."
Several women burst into laughter, and Lao Bao was caught in the middle and was made dizzy by their noise.
"Hey! Old Bao, you said you don't have much ability and you don't look very good. How come you have such a handsome young master and you are so capable?"
When Lao Bao saw him praising Bao Guowei, he felt happy.
Although the first half of the sentence is derogatory to him, no matter how good Bao Guowei is, he is also his son. Isn't this his honor? A son is better than me!
The other ladies quickly agreed, and Lao Bao immediately felt proud.
"For such a big project, we don't want to call it Lao Bao's house! From now on we will call it Bao Mansion!"
"Yes. Bao Gongguan is really impressive!"
"Hey! I told you at the beginning that Bao Guowei was not a mortal, but a Wenqu star from the sky who descended to earth. He was only in decline for a while. You still didn't believe it! Look, isn't the Bao family prosperous now?"
"I really don't know! What kind of magic power does Bao Guowei have? A few years ago, Chen San, the scoundrel, came to the house to collect debts and tore down all the door panels. Look, now, Chen San, the scoundrel, went up to the pole. The Bao family is here to help!”
"Mama Zhang, why don't you introduce your daughter to Master Bao quickly? Let Master Bao raise you from now on, and you will be rich and delicious!"
Li Ma twirled her fingers and pointed at the newly built grand entrance hall of the Bao family, as if this gate was just like the dragon gate. If any girl entered the gate, wouldn't she be jumping over the dragon gate like a carp?
When Lao Bao heard this, he suddenly became frightened, and his wrinkled old face suddenly became distorted, as if the person introducing his daughter was not Bao Guowei, but him, an old man.
"No, no, how can you say that! My Bao Guowei is still young and cannot get married. He still has to go to school!"
Hearing what Lao Bao said, everyone burst into laughter.
"Haha, old Bao! Bao Guowei is already so capable. He is even close to Mr. Guan Zhiyi. He is more impressive than the high-ranking section chief in the city. Why should he go to school!" Zhang Ma joked.
Seeing that Lao Bao was about to escape, Qian's mother twisted her big butt again and blocked Lao Bao's way out.
"Old Bao, don't run away! I think Bao Guowei has already had his heart set on something, and he doesn't like your daughter from the Zhang family. Look at those two girls, one is smarter than the other. What can your girl compare to?" ?”
"Yes! Mother Qian is right. You, the daughter of the Zhang family, still want to climb the high branches of Lao Bao's family. I think you are good-looking. You see, Lao Bao is a good-looking man and has a good son. You can do it for Lao Bao." My wife is pretty much the same!"
As soon as Zhang Ma heard this, she was attacked from both sides by Qian Ma and Li Ma. She was furious and her words were incoherent.
She twisted her neck, opened her arms, and shouted, as if reciting a spell: "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
Everyone knows that Zhang Ma is a Buddhist. She often goes to the Tutu Temple to burn incense, and even donates money to the Yunlin Temple in the east of Wusu City!
So, when everyone saw Zhang Ma's strange behavior, they thought it was a magic passed down to her by the gods, and it was unlucky for people to run into her!
The lively crowd suddenly dispersed. Qian Ma and Li Ma were running around, muttering: "Weird! Bao Guowei conjured up wealth by conjuring magic, and Zhang Ma can also use spells to harm people." !”
As soon as everyone dispersed, Lao Bao finally got out from in front of these women, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
But then he thought about it. Although they were noisy, they all praised Bao Guowei. He had never heard these words in so many years. Now, as long as others say something good about Bao Guowei, he is willing to listen.
Therefore, Lao Bao felt satisfied at the moment and carefully recalled what those women said.
He thought: "No matter how good the boy is, isn't he still born to me? How can a boy be born without me? Then complimenting my family Guowei is also complimenting me? I didn't expect that at this age, he can still be so prosperous... …”
As he thought about it, Lao Bao burst out laughing involuntarily, as if the person standing in front of him was Bao Guowei, a man in a suit and leather suit.
"Laobao! Laobao!"
Lao Bao was brought back to reality by the shout. He opened his eyes and saw where Bao Guowei came from. Standing in front of him was a chubby middle-aged man with a shiny face.
"Old Bao, what's the matter? Your nobles forget things so much. We haven't seen each other for just a few days and you don't remember me anymore?" the man said with a grin.
Lao Bao took a quick look.
Hey! Isn't this stupid?
Hu Da and Dai Laosan are both close friends of Lao Bao who works as an errand in the Qin Mansion. Hu Da is the chef and Lao Bao is the housekeeper. However, the difference between him and Dai Lao San is that this person is particularly good at smoothing things over and saying nice things. .
Hu Da has worked with Lao Bao for many years, and has a very good relationship with Gao Sheng, who works as an errand in the house, and Wu Ma, who does chores.
He is kind and sophisticated. When Lao Bao was disliked by his son, he comforted him in every possible way out of sympathy, and even deliberately told some pleasant lies to make excuses for Bao Guowei's misdeeds.
However, when the Bao family fell into decline, Hu Da disappeared, fearing that he would cause trouble.
In order for Bao Guowei to go to school, he borrowed money from Hu Da. When he was going to beg for food in other places, he went to Hu Da and wanted to tell Hu Da to relax. Although he was in debt, he would definitely pay back the money in the future. For him.
But Hu Da drove him away without giving him a chance to speak, not even asking for the money he owed.
Now, seeing Hu Da here, Lao Bao felt bad. He just thought that he came to collect debts because the Bao family was now rich and powerful, but he always had to pay back money he owed, right?
Although Lao Bao was dissatisfied, in the final analysis, he still felt wronged.
"Oh, Hu Da! I know that I will pay you back the money I owed you. I will ask Guowei to send the money to your home tomorrow!"
After finishing speaking, Lao Bao was about to leave. Hu Da's big oil-soaked hands covered Lao Bao and said with a smile: "Hey! Lao Bao, this is your fault! Why are you saying these unintentional words to me? The money I borrowed from you is for Bao Guowei to go to school, and the money he needs to go to school is important money, so what should you pay back?! There is no need to pay it back!"
